- #btc grows slower and slower, long-term
- short-term volatility decreases over time
- these trends should continue in the future due to ever higher capital requirements
Bitcoin's power-law corridor of growth used diminishing returns. We'll see more evidence for diminishing returns here.

1. his hodling time (how long he held his btc before selling them)
2. how early on he bought his bitcoin
?
- returns are diminishing over time
- returns are noisy
@gsantostasi has observed this early on:

#bitcointalk user Trolololo observed this already in 2014:

Same conclusion: Short-term price swings are becoming less crazy. Volatility decreases.
Long-term: Predictions made by some individuals (@bitcointina, @fundstrat) seem to assume NON-diminishing returns, whereas we have observed DIMINISHING returns.
For these predictions to hold, #bitcoin needs to start to have NON-diminishing returns.
So: for the #S2F model to hold, currently observed return curves need to change (transition to non-diminishing).
We have (so far?) seen no evidence for long-term:
- constant,
- accelerating, or
- S-curve type
growth.
#bitcoin price growth has been diminishing from the beginning of its history.
"As Bitcoin becomes more liquid, it becomes less volatile[...] These subsequent cycles also see the law of diminishing returns coming into effect [...]"

"[...] the general principle being that with more liquidity, comes less volatility. Also predictable, [...] is volatility reducing on the over-all long-term macro chart of Bitcoin."

- looking at short-term price changes
- seeing how far we can go without (almost) any model.
Thanks guys!
