Debate rages over Bitcoin power law as critics label it a ‘magic trick’

The Bitcoin power law has come under intense debate, with critics on one side and fierce advocates on the other.

Consultant and Bitcoin advocate Adrian Morris told Cointelegraph that while the Bitcoin power law had been touted as a predictive model for the future price of Bitcoin (BTC), its legitimacy has been drastically overblown by its advocates.

There’s a very slight chance that Bitcoin has already reached its peak this cycle at the $70,000 mark, according to the “exponential decay” pattern floated by veteran trader Peter Brandt.

Of course, many other price models and predictors suggest Bitcoin (BTC) is still far from its cycle peak and could instead top out at the $210,000 mark before the end of the bull run.

On April 27, veteran trader and analyst Peter Brandt posted a theory suggesting that Bitcoin’s bull market cycles have exhibited an “exponential decay” pattern.
