Bitcoin's Predicted Rally After U.S. Elections
Bitcoin is expected to surpass $100,000 following the U.S. elections, based on historical performance trends.
Historical Patterns:
- 2012: Before the election on November 5, Bitcoin was about $11, eventually skyrocketing by almost 12,000% within the following year, reaching over $1,100.
- 2016: In this election cycle, Bitcoin started around $700, peaking at approximately $18,000 by December 2017, a gain of about 3,600%.
- 2020: The November election coincided with the Covid-19 pandemic, and Bitcoin rose 478% to around $69,000 a year later, even reaching nearly $73,000 in March 2024.
The upcoming election could serve as a bullish catalyst, as previous trends indicate a robust surge in Bitcoin's price post-election, regardless of who takes office. With the current price potentially higher than past cycles, expectations for growth remain strong.
