**[Bitcoin Price Falls Below Network Value, Recovery Probability Predicted at 96%]** The price of Bitcoin has dropped 31.4% from its all-time high of $126,000 set on October 6, marking the first time in two years that it has fallen below its network value (Metcalfe Value). Economist Timothy Peterson pointed out that, based on historical data, this typically signals a recovery in Bitcoin's price. Metcalfe's Law suggests that Bitcoin's price is positively correlated with the growth of active addresses and transaction volume, with network expansion generally increasing its fair value. The current divergence between price and network value may indicate that Bitcoin is undervalued, a phenomenon often observed after speculative excesses. Peterson wrote on the X platform that this does not necessarily mean the price has bottomed out, but it does indicate that leverage has significantly decreased and the "bubble" has burst. He added that the Metcalfe Value Ratio is an effective predictive tool, with data showing a 96% probability of positive returns one year after the price falls below network value.
