Bitcoin Current Cycle 'Dramatically Weaker' Than Prior Cycles: Analyst

Galaxy's Alex Thorn says Bitcoin's current cycle since the April 2024 halving is dramatically underperforming previous cycles, with only 97% upside versus 9,294% in 2012, 2,950% in 2016, and 761% in 2020. The 30-day volatility index has dropped from 9.64% in 2020 to just 1.75% currently. Critics note BTC hit an all-time high before the halving due to spot ETF approval, skewing the comparison. Bitcoin is currently trading at $74,703, up 5% weekly.
