Bitcoin stays under halving-day price for over 800 days, raising worst-cycle view

Bitcoin has remained in a loss zone for buyers who purchased on the day of its fourth halving, staying below that level for more than 800 days, prompting views this cycle is the worst on record. Bitcoin is around $59,400, under about $64,000 on April 19, 2024. Decrypt said spot bitcoin ETFs drew large institutional inflows before the halving, lifting prices earlier and diluting the halving’s impact. Analysts also track realized price in comparing cycles.
