In the Tweet , published May 22, the analysts at JP Morgan state that bitcoin is basically trading below its actual value. This value is calculated based on the costs that miners incur to mine a bitcoin.
On the second page of the document, it can be seen that bitcoin has been trading well above its estimated net asset value since July 2019. However, the bitcoin price is now trading below intrinsic value as a direct result of the halving. According to JP Morgan, bitcoin’s true price is somewhere between $10,000 and $11,000.
