Expectations for Bitcoin in the new month are largely positive, as market players point to historically bullish October trends. Despite the asset’s underwhelming performance in the previous weeks, optimistic expectations for Bitcoin have not died down entirely.
Although the cryptocurrency market recorded notable losses after liquidations surged past $500 million on Monday, October appears promising for Bitcoin.
As noted by a market analyst, Bitcoin has historically outperformed during the third quarter of the year, particularly in October.
Analyst Ali Chart hinted that October might be the start of another epic Bitcoin bull run. He took to X, formerly Twitter, to share his observations. “Historically, Bitcoin kicks off a parabolic bull run every October following the halving!” the analyst wrote.
In October 2014, Bitcoin soared by 10,988.30%, triggering a massive spike in price value. The surge came after the 2012 halving event.
Similarly, after the 2016 halving, Bitcoin’s gains surged to 3,162%, taking prices to $19,197. More recently, a 539.95% increase in price value occurred in October, causing prices to rise to $58,215.
Meanwhile, some market players expect the bull run to kickstart in November; pseudonymous technical analyst CryptoCon shares data displaying a consistent bull rally that typically kicks off on November 28th, 2024.
Bitcoin successfully surges past $60,000
