Bitcoin's Hidden Power Law: What Changed in 2017?
We found something fascinating in Bitcoin's historical data.
From 2010 to mid-2017, three strong power-law relationships emerged:
- Price vs. time: exponent = 5.48, R² = 0.900
- On-chain transactions vs. time: exponent = 3.95, R² = 0.930
- Price vs. transactions: exponent = 1.33, R² = 0.896
In other words, Bitcoin's price scaled approximately as the number of daily on-chain transactions raised to the power of 1.33.
Then something changed around 2017.
The rapid growth in on-chain transactions slowed dramatically, eventually becoming relatively f

Around this time last year, we were discussing one of the sharpest declines for the dollar since 1973. Now, we face the exact opposite scenario: the dollar index has climbed to a 19-month high. The primary driver behind this dramatic reversal is the market’s repricing of expectations regarding the Federal Reserve’s continued interest rate hikes.

Market data clearly reflects this shift. According to CME FedWatch, investors assign an approximately 87%—at times even 88%—probability to a 25-basis-point rate hike in December. There is even talk of a more aggressive 50-basis-point increase. This hi

On the four-hour Ethereum chart, the price has staged a recovery bounce from the low but is currently facing resistance below the Bollinger middle band. After briefly breaking above 2100, it quickly pulled back, with heavy selling pressure overhead. The MACD continues to run below the zero line, and the bullish volume bars are shrinking. The one-hour KDJ is moving up toward the overbought zone, while rebound volume is weaker than selling volume.

BTC Technical Outlook: Bitcoin Slips Below $75,500 as Selling Pressure Builds

Bitcoin is showing renewed weakness on the daily chart, with price trading near $74,386 after falling below the important $75,563 support level. Sellers remain in control, while BTC continues to trade below all four major exponential moving averages (EMAs).

The latest decline puts the $71,500 support area in focus. The key question now is whether buyers can defend this region or whether Bitcoin will extend its correction toward the $70,000 and $67,000 levels.

The most ironic thing about the trade war is this: the Republican Party built its early success on high tariffs. Of the 19 presidential elections held from 1860 to 1932, Republicans won 14, and they controlled both chambers of Congress 64% of the time. That was no coincidence. The Morrill Tariff Act of 1861 raised the average tariff rate from about 19% to roughly 25%, putting a protective shield around Northern industry. The McKinley Tariff Act of 1890 pushed rates up again, to nearly 48%. Republicans made “protective tariffs” part of their platform, tying factories, workers, and some agricult

Google’s official blog says the Gemini Decisions API is based on the Gemini Decision 1 model and can rapidly evaluate up to 1000 questions about multimodal content in a single pass, providing confidence scores in probability form.

It looks like an all-purpose quality inspector on the job—videos, PDFs, and recordings, nothing it won’t take on. But what it delivers is still a probability score, not a gold-star exemption from review. When it comes time to make the call, humans still need to use their brains.

Is a 20x price-to-sales ratio really expensive? Let’s bring in OpenAI for comparison

A $1.4 trillion valuation corresponds to how much revenue?

Revenue for the first nine months of 2026 was $33.242 billion, with $16.956 billion in the third quarter alone. The annualized run rate in October was about $81 billion. At an annualized $81 billion, a $1.4 trillion valuation implies a price-to-sales ratio of about 17x; using the higher revenue expected by the market in 2027, it could fall to 11–13x.‌‌

Take OpenAI as a benchmark. OpenAI had a post-money valuation of $852 billion in March, annualiz
