Bitcoin is back up, trading above the $43,000 threshold after briefly dipping below $39,000 a week and a half ago.
I already told you crypto is making a comeback in 2024, and in this video, I break down some of the numbers to show you how much Bitcoin has grown in the past year. I promise I will never give financial advice, but Bitcoin’s meteoric rise since its inception 15 years ago is not a part of history you want to miss out on.
Here’s a quick breakdown of Bitcoin’s average closing price in January for the past five years, per data from StatMuse:
- January 2020: $9,357.21
- January 2021: $33,053.68
- January 2022: $41,155.72
- January 2023: $20,250.72
- January 2024: $42,919.61
Crypto is a volatile market, but it’s obvious there was an unexplainable dip in interest in digital assets in 2023. And look at that more than $20,000 jump between 2020 and 2021 and the growth carried through 2022. There are a multitude of reasons why the crypto landscape changed last year, and while the experts are still trying to figure that out, the market is showing its resilience right now.
