Bitcoin has had a notable journey in recent years. The fate of an attempted retrieval of a Bitcoin hard drive worth $750 million from a landfill site, halted by a judge, sparked interest. The volatility of Bitcoin was evident; it braced for a significant earthquake of a crypto price crash, seemingly triggered by a 3-day slide erasing the year’s gains. However, investors remained bullish, some turning a $7,000 investment into a $3M profit in one trade. A technical analysis revealed a battle between bulls and bears for the market's next direction. Bitcoin ETFs gained popularity, reaching $100B within a year, with high net-worth investors showing considerable interest in Bitcoin. Its blockchain size from 2009-2025 garnered attention, and the talk of governments becoming 'significant' Bitcoin investors by 2025 was noted. Bitcoin's cultural influence was seen with discussions around trading strategies, President Trump’s affinity for cryptocurrency and the belief by some, like BitMEX Founder Arthur Hayes, that Bitcoin could skyrocket by 950% within three to five years. However, the constant volatility, including a drop below $97,000 and frequent liquidations, should prompt caution for new investors.
