● Bitcoin ($BTC) just did it again. Like clockwork, it's hit a bull market top exactly 1,064 days after the last bear market bottom—the same pattern we've seen play out in previous cycles. And this time, it came with a fresh all-time high.
● A recent analysis shared by Ali on Twitter points out something pretty fascinating: over the last two market cycles, Bitcoin has consistently peaked at the 1,064-day mark after bottoming out. This latest surge to $126,220 from the November 2022 low confirms the pattern once more. The chart they shared lays it out clearly—Bitcoin's price movements might be more predictable than many people think.
● For traders and investors, this kind of regularity is a double-edged sword. Sure, it offers a roadmap for timing entries and exits, but it also means the volatility that typically follows these peaks could be just around the corner. Sharp corrections have historically followed major tops, and with global economic uncertainty always lurking in the background, caution is warranted even amid the excitement.
● The implications go beyond just individual portfolios. As Bitcoin climbs higher, policymakers and analysts are taking notice too. Some are already floating ideas about increasing profit taxes on crypto gains—a way for governments to tap into the boom while funding broader economic initiatives. It's a sign that Bitcoin isn't just a niche asset anymore; it's becoming part of the mainstream financial conversation.
● As Bitcoin keeps pushing boundaries, it's pulling in both believers and skeptics. The long-term potential is undeniable, but so are the risks. For now, the 1,064-day cycle remains one of the most interesting quirks in crypto—and everyone's watching to see if it holds up again.
