5 Things To Expect from Bitcoin Price Based on Historical Trends

by

As a seasoned analyst with over two decades of experience in financial markets, I have witnessed the ebb and flow of various economic cycles. Having closely observed Bitcoin’s price action since its inception, I find myself drawn to the patterns and trends that seem to rhyme within this unique digital asset class.

Historical patterns in Bitcoin‘s price have often been employed to predict its future direction within the cryptocurrency market. While these trends don’t always unfold identically, they typically exhibit similarities that suggest possible future developments for Bitcoin. With this understanding, there are certain expectations regarding BTC as we approach the final quarter of this year and look towards 2025.

Bitcoin Price To Benefit From Rate Cuts

As a crypto investor, I’m excited about the prospect of Bitcoin price gains following the anticipated rate cuts at the upcoming FOMC meeting from September 17-18. Historically, when the US Federal Reserve reduces interest rates (rate cuts), it’s often seen as bullish for Bitcoin. This is because such quantitative easing (QE) increases the money supply, providing investors with more disposable capital to potentially invest in riskier assets like Bitcoin.

In March 2020, the Fed made a significant interest rate reduction, and this event signaled the start of an impressive growth phase for Bitcoin (BTC). By November 2021, BTC had reached its highest value ever, approximately $69,000. At the time of that rate cut, BTC was being traded at around $7,000. Given this history and projected future price predictions, it’s possible that a similar situation may occur again, with experts anticipating BTC to reach its peak value by the end of 2025.

Three Consecutive Green Months In Q4

It’s possible that Bitcoin might have three consecutive profitable months at the end of this year based on historical trends. Data from Coinglass indicates that the leading cryptocurrency has typically seen positive monthly gains in October, November, and December during the past two halving years. Given that this year’s halving event has already taken place, it’s speculated that Bitcoin could conclude the final three months of 2022 with positive returns.

One explanation why crypto enthusiasts believe this pattern might repeat is due to Bitcoin’s behavior during the current month. Historically, September has shown bearish tendencies for BTC, and this year is no exception. This trend could suggest that Bitcoin’s price continues to follow historical patterns and may reenact its impressive Q4 performance from the 2016 and 2020 halving years.

A Price Rally After The US Elections

It’s likely that Bitcoin’s price will surge following the U.S. elections in November, as has been the case in the last two presidential elections in 2016 and 2020. Even though Bitcoin wasn’t a significant topic of discussion before those elections like it is today, the certainty that follows an election is always present. Market players appreciate certainty and are likely to invest more capital into risky assets after the election has passed.

It’s noteworthy that some analysts, such as those from Bernstein, anticipate a surge in Bitcoin price to $90,000 if Donald Trump wins the election. Contrarily, Steven Lubka, Head of private clients and family offices at Swan Bitcoin, contends that Bitcoin is deeply connected with countries’ financial and monetary structures. As such, he suggests that Bitcoin will likely perform well regardless of who takes office in the election.

Year-End 2025 Could Market Peak For Bitcoin Price

By the end of 2025, experts predict that Bitcoin’s value will reach its maximum, primarily due to its four-year cycle, including a halving phase. This cycle consists of two alternating periods – bear (downward trend) and bull (upward trend) markets, each lasting for about two years. Typically, the halving cycle initiates the bull market, which follows the halving event. Bitcoin tends to experience significant price increases and peaks approximately 16 to 18 months after the halving takes place.

As a researcher studying cryptocurrencies, I’ve been looking into the analysis provided by Rekt Capital. They’ve pointed out an interesting pattern: Bitcoin reached its peak around 518 days following the 2016 halving and 546 days after the 2020 halving. If we assume this trend continues, it suggests that the price of this digital asset could reach its maximum in my current research cycle somewhere between September and October of 2025.

According to the Mars-Vesta Cycle theory, which has similarities with Bitcoin’s four-year cycle, there’s an indication that the peak for Bitcoin’s market value might occur in October 2025. By this time, experts predict that the price of Bitcoin could surge to around $100,000 or more.

Massive Price Rally Following Golden Cross

According to a post on X, renowned crypto analyst Titan of Crypto announced the emergence of a Golden Cross on Bitcoin’s graph. Previously, when this bullish signal appeared, Bitcoin experienced significant price increases. This suggests that a potential price surge could be coming up, especially with the recent interest rate reductions and considering its strong performance in Q4 historically.

Although Bitcoin’s future looks promising according to past patterns, the uncertain state of the U.S. economy remains a potential risk that could halt any price increase Bitcoin might experience. A possible economic downturn, either short-term or long-term, could overturn these historical trends and result in a negative outlook for Bitcoin prices. Therefore, it’s crucial to keep a close watch on broader economic factors.
