Power Law
Giovanni Santostasi's Power Law model posits a long-run log-log relationship between BTC price and days since genesis. Unlike a plain log-regression, Power Law uses a second log-transformation, producing more robust fair-value bands across 14+ years of Bitcoin history.
- Formula:
- log(Price) = A + B · log(Days since Genesis)
- Originator:
- Giovanni Santostasi
- Data source:
- Binance OHLC (derived)
