(...) the curve should be updated after adding new historical data to it (...)

Glad to see the legendary Trolololo!!

Have you ever added overbought and oversold bands to better visualize those levels? Is there a model that includes bands that you like more?

It would be interesting to see where the overbought band is right now or 6 months ahead.

I was very inspired by this post back in the day and wanted to do something similar, so I've recalculated the logarithmic function and done similar analysis to what Trolololo did originally. I'm going to try and keep it updated somewhat frequently on https://hardestfork.com/ and maybe cross-post the images here if there's interest.

Hello! I am writing to this forum for the first time. I was very interested in the work of Trolololo and I decided to get into it in detail. I carefully and thoroughly studied this whole forum https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=831547.0 and made sure that its formulas in the past gave accurate results! Thank you very much Trolololo for your fundamental work.
       But I do not understand everything, so I am forced to turn to all of you and, above all, to the distinguished Trolololo for help and clarification ....
       Trolololo several times laid out similar, but slightly different formulas. All these formulas give different results and all these results change every day ... Today, 07/20/2019, the formulas give the following results:

          In this regard, I have the following questions:
1) I would like to draw your attention to the fact that the first and last formulas on October 22, 2014, 17–47 and 01/10/2017 are absolutely identical !!! Why? Why, then, were changes made to the formula for three years?
 2) Which of these formulas is relevant today?
3) If I understand correctly, these formulas show the predicted price of Bitcoin after some time in the future. After what about time Bitcoin should reach the price, which shows the formula at the moment.
4) What are the days of brackets (number of days since 2009 Jan 09) / days) does this formula substitute for getting the correct result?

Where is Trolololo 

I will if he responds that his BTC address is up-to-date and that he will redo the Bitcoin price regression chart. I and others will donate if posts about that. No I did not donate in the past because I wasn’t following him.

Update Dec 4: saw no action on this and will stop following.

Here is the updated chart:

PS: Special thanks to Marc De Mesel, again  

People still read this thread??

Actually, Trolololo, could you make one for the total marketcap of all coins?

Let me know for how much you can do this? I'm very happy to pay for this to get this done as soon as possible.


The one thing I think these calculations overlook is that other cryptos can take over the market from bitcoin and so past growth trend may not be extrapolated into the future. This has also just happened I think due to the black swan event of bitcoin not being able to process anymore transactions for half a year now. However for the whole cryptocurrency market this is still valid, but if u were to make such a chart I think you would see that current marketcap of all cryptos is already considerably above it's expected average and is due for a correction, and therefore Bitcoin as well, eventhough it is not yet way above it's expected price.

Trolololo, only recently discovered this amazing work - THANK YOU (and others).

I did a bit of my own work in Excel and came up with this chart, which I think is fairly close (based on 1st of the month values in CoinMarketCap). (...)
I then made a monthly chart for BTC for the last 2.5 years and like the correlation.

But I have to confess I don't completely understand the values for 10 ^ 2.66167155005961 as well as the -17.9183761889864? Could you potentially elaborate or point me in the right direction?

Reason been - I tried to evaluate ETH and had to move the START DATE from 9-JAN-2009 (for BTC) to 1-JAN-2013 (ETH?) to get an "acceptable visual correlation" (not very scientific I know). This is my best guess at the moment...

Could u update Trolololo?
