But if fun from the FT:
https://ftalphaville.ft.com/2017/05/22/2189145/how-to-value-bitcoin-with-a-traditional-valuation-measure/
Premise is he value of bitcoin should correlate with the global money laundering index published by the International Center for Asset Recovery. Conclusion 238% overvalued.
