Bitcoin's 4-Year Cycles
Bitcoin moves in 4-year cycles marked by the halving, which reduces the number of new bitcoins created, leading to less supply and historically higher prices.
[00:14]
Historical Halving Pattern
After the 2020 halving, Bitcoin peaked in late 2021; after the April 2024 halving, it reached highs in October of the following year, around $126,000.
[00:30]
Post-Halving Timeline
Historically, the market top occurs 12-18 months after the halving, followed by a year of decline, which is the current phase.
[00:43]
Next Halving and Accumulation
The next halving is expected in April 2028. If history repeats, the current months are for accumulation, with the next major rally building toward that event.
[00:56]
Macro Factors Influence
Beyond the halving, macroeconomic conditions matter: when the Fed cuts rates and inflation and wars calm, liquidity returns to risky assets, benefiting cryptocurrencies.
The video concludes that cryptocurrencies tend to rise when there is ample liquidity, and the next significant upward move is likely tied to the 2028 halving and favorable macro conditions.
