There's been an explosion of live #Cardano $ADA nodes. The network more than doubled between height 146362 and 146363. Per Metcalfe's law, network value is N squared. So Cardano ADA network's value has quadrupled in one block. Price action hasn't reflected this yet! pic.twitter.com/Sp6nMTS3KP — crypto.bi 🔑 (@cryptodotbi) January 30, 2020

Metcalfe, in his theory, enacted in the 80s, claimed the value of a network is proportional to the square of network nodes, that is the number of users. Metcalfe’s law propounded that there is a great connection between the value of a network and its size. The size of a number, according to Metcalfe, is measured by the number of users.

Metcalfe’s law, in relation to cryptocurrency, proposes that the more adoption a cryptocurrency gets (number of users) the higher the network value of the crypto.
