EP22-1:Metcalfe's Law tells you how networks grow. It's users squared

with Timothy Peterson of Cane Island Alternative Advisors

In this episode of Navigating Bitcoin’s Noise, I am joined by Timothy Peterson of Cane Island Alternative Advisors. To discuss the power and importance of network effects in cryptocurrencies. As the economy has transitioned to a digitized world driven by math, Metcalfe’s Law has become a very important component of financial modeling and understanding its relationship to investor psychology. Tim has spent years researching and understanding Metcalf’s work and how it applies to Bitcoin, financial markets, and money.

If you’re looking to better understand bitcoin’s past and its future potential as an economic network, then join us and listen in.
