For #Bitcoin,the power law has the exponent 6 and is derived from two other observed power laws in on-chain data:
a) growth of addresses over time, reflecting network adoption:
Addresses ∝ Time³
b) Price's quadratic response to adoption, aligning with Metcalfe's Law, which theorizes that the value of a network scales with the square of its connectivity:
Price ∝ Addresses²
If we approximate that Bitcoiners are synonymous with Addresses, we arrive at:
Price ∝ Bitcoiners² ∝ (Time³)² ∝ Time⁶
In addition, a power law relationship exists between Price and Hash Rate:
Hash Rate ∝ Price ² .
This relationship is due to the interplay between difficulty adjustment, Moore's Law, and halving events.
