    Why Bitcoin Price Drops in January

    In the last seven days, the Bitcoin market has dropped by at least 7.4%. In the last 24 hours alone, it has slipped by 2.9%. The month-to-date performance of BTC stands at -3.38%. 

    According to analysts, Bitcoin often experiences price drops in January during post-halving years. Looking at past trends:

    • In January 2013, Bitcoin grew by 49.9%.
    • In January 2017, it saw a small rise of 0.7%.
    • In January 2021, Bitcoin increased by 14.3%.

    Bitcoinโ€™s behavior after halving events follows a familiar pattern, which gives analysts reason to stay hopeful. In the peak year of the previous halving cycle, Bitcoin surged by an impressive 130%.

    • In 2017, it rose by 1,369%.
    • In 2021, despite the pandemic, Bitcoin still surged by 56.6%.

    Since 2025 is the third year of the current cycle, which began in 2023, analysts are expecting significant growth.
