Discover how a mathematical model created eight years ago has accurately predicted Bitcoin's price trajectory to this day. In this episode, quantitative researcher Sina explains how data analytics and economics can unveil Bitcoin's underlying patterns.

Learn about the "640 rule" - a remarkable observation showing how a 40% increase in Bitcoin's age consistently leads to a 6x price increase. Unlike traditional financial models, this power law relationship provides a robust framework for understanding Bitcoin's growth dynamics.

Key points covered:
-The distinction between correlation and causation in crypto analysis
-Why network growth patterns follow Metcalfe's law
-How Bitcoin's maturation affects its growth rate
-The limitations of traditional financial models in crypto

While current returns hover around 45% annually, Sina explains how this growth will evolve as Bitcoin transitions from an "infant money" to a global currency.
