The determination of equilibrium has been of keen interest among the scholars and as seen earlier, it is constructed on varying factors of the market. Another such model constructed by Chiu and Koeppl (2017) gives more holistic requirements for an equilibrium to exist in the Bitcoin market. They scheme the conditions to be inclusive of buyer’s utility and miner’s utility and prove that the equilibrium exists when there is a sufficiently large number of buyers.
