Sure, Bitcoin climbed above $75,000 for a new all-time high. But some analysts are saying that’s par for the course and less to do with Donald Trump’s victory than the fact that BTC had its fourth halving event in April.
CryptoQuant’s Head of Research Julio Moreno told Decrypt that other than in 2012, when Bitcoin rapidly hit an all-time high price three months after its first halving, it has since taken approximately six months to break new records following the halvings of 2016 and 2020.
