Amazing overview - thanks you Felipe!

I believe that it is a good thing that revisions like this are published by academic institutions, albeit that their initial overestimation was likely fueled by the "outrage economy" and an institutional imperative to stay relevant at all costs, and to remain part of the conversation.

The energy narrative around Bitcoin is a fascinating one, isn't it? So much negative news and yelling and yet so much opportunity and net positive impact.

Unfortunately, many financial influencers with a lot of following, mainstream media but also politicians are still citing and using the dishonest thesis of Alex de Vries aka. Digiconomist.

I am happy the narrative is shifting a bit.

Yeah, the shifting narrative is important!

I think the shift will continue towards sanity and reasonableness now that so much of the crypto-shitcoin-bs-bubble has started to subside and fade. It should create more space for honest conversation around Bitcoin, without it being lumped in with all the other fad-crap.

It is definitely looking up.
