Is the power law for Bitcoin prices a self-fulfilling prophecy? No, there are still very few who grok it, not even Saylor despite how much he would benefit from that. Ten years ago the exponent was almost the same as it is today, it has stable in the [5.5, 6.0] zone for a decade. Virtually no one knew about the power law a decade ago and yet it only became more stable. Of course people matter to price, they supply fiat capital. The masses chase price, they run away from price, yet adoption has kept rising ~t^3 and channel capacity kept rising long term. Waves and troughs can be modeled in significant part with log Periodic cyclicality, but price has always been pulled back to the power law long term. The response of the system is embedded in the structure of the network, revealed by deep embedding geometrical study. The network responds to liquidity waves with discrete scale invariance (log periodicity) around the continuous scale invariance. People come and go, run toward, run away. The dynamical geometric network responds, it has intrinsic structural parameters β ~ 5.7, λ ~ 2 that are even coupled in a renormalizable group fashion C = β ln λ ~ 4.0. A bell responds to the hammers striking it, the structure persists. Bitcoin is a liberty bell that will outlive us all.
