De acordo com o Cointelegraph, os legisladores dos EUA estão agendados para se encontrar com 18 figuras proeminentes da indústria de criptomoedas, incluindo o presidente da Strategy, Michael Saylor, na terça-feira. A reunião tem como objetivo explorar como o Congresso pode avançar a iniciativa de Reserva Estratégica de Bitcoin do presidente dos EUA, Donald Trump. Entre os participantes estarão o CEO da Fundstrat, Tom Lee, que também preside a BitMine, e o CEO da MARA, Fred Thiel. Este encontro é organizado pelo grupo de defesa das criptomoedas, The Digital Chambers, que divulgou a lista de participantes na segunda-feira.

2013 – $682
Bitcoin was still in its early discovery phase. This year followed the first major speculative bubble, when BTC briefly touched over $1,000 earlier in December. By Christmas, prices had cooled sharply due to regulatory fears (especially from China) and immature market structure. Volatility was extreme, and Bitcoin was largely unknown to the general public.
2014 – $319
This was a deep bear-market year following the Mt. Gox collapse, which severely damaged confidence. Bitcoin spent most of the year declining as trust issues, exchange failures, and lack of institutional interest dominated sentiment. Christmas 2014 marked one of the most pessimistic periods in Bitcoin history.

2015 – $456
Bitcoin began recovering quietly. Infrastructure improved, new exchanges emerged, and long-term believers accumulated. The price increase reflected growing confidence after the 2014 capitulation, though mainstream adoption was still limited. This year laid the groundwork for the next bull cycle.

2016 – $896
The second Bitcoin halving occurred earlier in the year, reducing new supply. Market participants started pricing in future scarcity, pushing Bitcoin close to $1,000 by Christmas. Sentiment turned cautiously optimistic as Bitcoin transitioned from recovery into early expansion.

2017 – $14,027
This was the peak mania year. Bitcoin had reached nearly $20,000 just days before Christmas, driven by retail FOMO, ICO hype, and global media attention. The Christmas price already reflected the start of a correction, signaling that the speculative bubble was beginning to unwind.
2018 – $3,815
A brutal crypto winter. Excess leverage, failed ICOs, and regulatory pressure crushed prices throughout the year. By Christmas, Bitcoin had lost over 80% from its peak. Despite the pain, this period forced the market to mature and eliminate weak projects.

2019 – $7,275
Bitcoin rebounded strongly from 2018 lows, nearly doubling year-over-year. Institutional interest began to grow, with futures markets expanding and Bitcoin increasingly seen as a hedge asset. However, the rally stalled mid-year, leading to consolidation by Christmas.

2020 – $24,665
A historic year. After the March COVID crash, massive monetary stimulus pushed investors toward scarce assets. Bitcoin broke its 2017 all-time high in December, and Christmas marked the beginning of a powerful institutional-driven bull market. Bitcoin’s narrative as “digital gold” gained legitimacy.

2021 – $50,430
Bitcoin reached its first trillion-dollar market cap earlier in the year. Corporate adoption (Tesla, MicroStrategy) and ETF speculation fueled the rally. By Christmas, the market was cooling after the November all-time high near $69,000, entering a late-cycle consolidation phase.

2022 – $16,831
One of the most damaging years structurally. The collapse of Terra, Celsius, and FTX destroyed confidence and wiped out billions. Aggressive interest-rate hikes further pressured risk assets. Christmas prices reflected capitulation and fear, similar to past cycle bottoms.

2023 – $43,790
A strong recovery year. Bitcoin benefited from expectations of spot ETFs, reduced selling pressure, and improved macro stability. Confidence slowly returned as bad actors were flushed out. Christmas prices showed Bitcoin firmly back in a bull-market trajectory.

2024 – $98,150
A breakout year driven by the approval of spot Bitcoin ETFs and the fourth halving. Institutional capital flooded in, dramatically increasing demand. By Christmas, Bitcoin was near six figures, confirming its evolution into a global macro asset with long-term investor conviction.

$BTC
This year reflects a post-halving consolidation phase. After rapid gains in 2024, Bitcoin experienced profit-taking and cyclical cooling. Despite being lower than the prior year, the price remains historically high, showing structural strength and maturity rather than weakness.
