‘Real’ Bitcoin Bull Market Is Yet To Commence: ‘Violent Up-Only Price Action’ Will Mirror Previous Cycles, Touts Trader
By Benzinga
Prominent crypto trader Kaleo shared insights on Bitcoin’s (CRYPTO: BTC) price trajectory, emphasizing the significant growth that has followed each halving event.
What Happened: Crypto Kaleo pointed out that since the 2012 halving, Bitcoin’s value has skyrocketed over 500,000% from $12 to nearly $70,000. He noted that the majority of this price discovery occurred in three distinct periods, each lasting less than two years. During the remaining time, Bitcoin’s price either moved sideways or declined.
Kaleo emphasized that these price surges kicked off in the year following a halving event. Despite the efforts of many to predict the exact price of each local bottom and top, these fluctuations are merely noise in the grand scheme of things.
While acknowledging the possibility of a temporary dip into the $40,000s or $50,000s, Kaleo suggested not to lose sight of the “violent up-only price action that’s around the corner.” He concluded, “The real fun for this bull market hasn’t even started yet.”

Why It Matters: Kaleo’s analysis underscores the potential for significant Bitcoin growth in the aftermath of halving events. He argued that the current period, several months after a halving and with Bitcoin’s price below the previous cycle’s all-time high, is historically the best buying opportunity.
Coinbase Institutional shared the BTC chart tracking the prior two cycles, suggesting the current cycle is trading in line with previous patterns.
