#Bitcoin DPC price model - Quarterly update (Apr 5, 2023)

- Current projection: $27K ($16-49K)
- Projected cycle finish (Apr 23, 2024): $74K ($43-130K)
- Next projected cycle peak (Oct 9, 2025): $179K ($104-316K) ImageImageImage As expected, $BTC has moved up considerably since November. However, there remains a large upside and it's still a good time to start (or continue) DCA buying.

Quarterly projections:
- Jun 30, 2023: $49K
- Sep 30, 2023: $50K
- Dec 31, 2023: $59K
- Mar 31, 2024: $65K

#Bitcoin DPC price model - Weekly update (Jun 19, 2022)

- Current projection: $26K ($15-46K)
- Projected cycle trough (Jan 5, 2023): $16K ($9-28K)
- Projected cycle finish (Apr 24, 2024): $40K ($23-71K)
- Next projected cycle peak (Oct 3, 2025): $320K ($190-570K)* inaccurate I reverted the latest model change of May 7. Explanation:

(1/6) The DPC model has 2 basic components: the log-log power law and the cyclic pattern from trough to peak to trough. The first one takes care of long-term growth, while the second charts out the mid-term swings.

Models with multiples persistently staying over 2 or under 0.5 are not useful.

The clash of long-term #bitcoin price models - Weekly update (May 1, 2022). Model projections for yesterday's $BTC closing price:

- Power law: $37K
- HODL: $38K
- $BTC: $38K

Yesterday's $BTC closing price & respective model multiples (projected model price ÷ price of #bitcoin) are shown on the 2nd chart. Best fit is by the HODL model (orange dash dot curve): 0.996 * $BTC was projected for yesterday's close.

We need a #profitable investment strategy. When it comes to #bitcoin, this task seems very simple: just hold and number will go up. This maxi view advocates a constant buying strategy commonly called dollar (or unit) cost averaging (#DCA/UCA). But is this the best we can do? 🧵 9 Image 1. The annual chart above shows that, indeed, #number just keeps going up. What about those red candles though? Can we avoid losing money in the red years? Is there a #pattern to them?

The losses can be significant (56-73%) so it would be good to know what to do in those years.

Many #Americans are led to believe that there are only two sides to a question. This way of thinking goes back to the times before the civil war (1861-65), when the two major political parties had already formed.

cliffsnotes.com/study-guides/a… In other western democracies, a plurality of parties is the norm: there are typically 3 or 4 major parties and a large number of others: Japan 3, Germany 3, UK 4, France 3, Italy 4.

Here is a list of political parties around the world: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_r…

The vast majority of CT is misunderstanding the #Canadian situation. The simple fact is that the #convoys have nothing to do with #freedom or peaceful #protests.

First off: the #EmergenciesAct is not martial law and is not above the law.

cbc.ca/news/politics/… The protesters are a fringe #rightwing #minority group, partly supported by the American #extreme right.

Here is a hard question for #bitcoin maxis (and plebs):

Why will we end up with 21 million coins in the end?

You think this is easy? Let's see... 🧵 of 21 👇 1. We all know the easy answer: because in its first halving cycle, #bitcoin created 10.5 million coins (50 block subsidy coins * 210,000 blocks), and half that in the next, etc. After a number of cycles, we will have close to 21 million coins.

But I'm asking why, not how.

DPC model background: 1. We have seen that the foundation of this model is the power law and the halving cycle. As these two components work with average values, they can sometimes be too slow to adjust to changing circumstances. Therefore, a third component is needed to add agility to the model.

For starters, it would be helpful to check the latest update:

The Dynamic Power Cycle (DPC) model of #Bitcoin uses the power law as its base, and adds periodic behaviour resulting from the coin's 4-year block subsidy (miner reward) halving cycle. The implementation of the model now reflects my original vision (conceived in Oct 2021). 🧵 17 1. The red line on the chart above shows how the median price of bitcoin is expected to unfold over the next 3 years. Today's closing price is projected between $30K and $73K (median: $47K). Time uncertainty is ±34 days, and price tolerance is -36%/+56% (at 95% confidence).

Long term (5+ years), #bitcoin is always bullish. Short term (3-6 months), I believe we will keep sliding down. Medium term (1-2 years), I see a continuing downtrend until the end of the year, then we seem to be getting back up to ~$50K. Let's take a closer look. Current #bitcoin price action is fundamentally determined by four support/resistance levels: $20K, $29K, $43K and $65K. The $43K support was lost on Jan 20, and we remain in a downtrend, fighting between $29K and $43K.
