Bitcoin is poised to register another double-digit gain, with February historically being a strong month for the cryptocurrency, registering an average of 16% in value.
Bitcoin is poised to register another double-digit gain, which would see it as the second-best-performing month out of the past ten.
Historically, February and March are both bullish months for bitcoin.
February has historically been a strong month for bitcoin, registering an average of 16%.
In fact, only two times in February has it seen a red month: 2014 and 2020.
According to Coinglass data, this trend is consistent across multiple years.
January’s performance is also noteworthy.
As it stands, January is tied as the second-best performing month for bitcoin (BTC) in the past ten months, surpassed only by November 2024, which saw a 37% surge in price after President Trump‘s victory in the U.S. election.
It shares second-place with May 2024, both recording an 11% gain, according to Coinglass data.
Q1 is historically the second-best quarter for bitcoin, up 53%, just behind Q4‘s 85% gain, according to Coinglass.
The combination of these seasonal trends suggests that January could become Bitcoin’s second-best month in the last 10 months.
Bitcoin's price has experienced significant fluctuations since its inception in 2009.
In the early days, it traded for less than $1 per coin.
However, by 2013, its value surged to nearly $1,000.
The cryptocurrency then underwent a period of decline, reaching as low as $200 in 2015.
But with the rise of institutional investment and increased adoption, Bitcoin's price began to climb again.
By December 2020, it had reached an all-time high of over $64,000.
Throughout its history, Bitcoin has demonstrated both remarkable volatility and resilience.
In 2019, former US President Donald Trump expressed his views on Bitcoin, stating that it was 'not my currency' and that he wasn't a fan of 'cryptocurrencies.'
He also warned about the risks associated with investing in Bitcoin, citing its volatility and potential for price manipulation.
Despite this, Trump's administration took steps to facilitate the development of blockchain technology, which underlies many cryptocurrencies.
According to a 2020 report by the US Government Accountability Office, the number of Bitcoin-related searches on Google increased significantly during Trump's presidency.
The rapid increase in Bitcoin's value is largely attributed to its growing adoption and increasing demand.
As of 2021, the cryptocurrency market capitalization reached an all-time high, with Bitcoin accounting for over 40% of the total market share.
Factors contributing to the surge include institutional investment, improved infrastructure, and increased mainstream acceptance.
The price surge has also sparked regulatory discussions and debates about the future of cryptocurrencies.
