Interesting to see that in the last 10 years BTC has been the best-performing asset in 7 out of those 10 years. In the years it wasn't the best performing, it was the worst performing!
However, since 2013:
BTC is up 114,00%
NDX +392%
SPX +203%

Upon being asked by a Twitter user how Bitcoin has performed in 2022, Pal said “worst performing.”
The user responded in the same thread stating: “Same in 2018 and 2014.”
Pal added, “Interestingly [BTC) is the only asset class that dropped more than 50% in its down years.”
On Dec.12, Pal noted that the magic level in Bitcoin is 20%. “Every time it got there it was the cyclical low or preceded a larger leg higher in an early bull market.”
Something I've noticed in the past is episodes of low 30-day realized volatility have coincided with lows in the crypto market…
