Understanding 2022's Relation to the 2024 Bitcoin Halving
Understanding 2022's Relation to the 2024 Bitcoin Halving
January 15, 2022
Bitcoin's Halving Cycle
As I've mentioned since 2017,BTC halving events are fascinating - many know the past events have started with a trend low roughly 2.5Y prior, and finish approx. 1.5y at a new ATH. That trend seems to be holding true in 2022, in its relation to the 2020 halving event as we start to prepare for the event in 2024 that now lies ahead.
While this post does not dive into the skepticism surrounding theBTC Halving events as valid events for analysis, note that I will comment on the fact these trends are yet to be proven as obsolete. Mining represents the demand for bitcoin globally, and the increase of scarcity drives the demand for more supply upwards and hence price action results in a slingshot upwards.
Also, know that until we experience an event that is different, the following is true: Bitcoin price at the next halving event is always around 60% of the then ATH, and on its way up towards that ATH before slingshotting above for the year and a half after.
About theBTC Halving
In summary (for those who don't know) - Bitcoin halving events are when the rewards for mining Bitcoin transactions are cut in half. In theory this is a counter-measure taken to inflation, keeping price representative of 1BTC now = 1BTC later (as opposed to $1 USD now = $0.94 later etc.) The network cuts these rewards in half every 4 years and each 1.5 year period thereafter has seemingly provided a pricing 'boom' of sorts in which the bubble re-inflates as the price skyrockets in our fiat values. The first event was in 2012, then 2016 and 2020. There are consistencies and trends in price action that have emerged through these events. Any price estimations for these halving events are purely skeptical, but worth noting the similarities in them, as orders around these levels seem to fill each time and be in the approximate 'bottom' for the ensuing bull run.
Expectations for Price Action
2022 Entry Levels
If setting a buy in 2010 at $0.30 would have been considered a low bid, and the same for $300 in 2014 and another for $3000 in 2018, then strategically speaking, setting a buy at the 30k level for 2022 to fill for the halving event in 2024 would be both strategic and realistic.
2024 Halving Expectations
As with every other halving on record, I'd expect the price of
BTC in March 2024 to be at the current all time high of 69k. This is consistent with what we've seen in each of the previous three in which we see price reclaiming the-then ATH before continuing upwards in price discovery to its future ATH.
2025 Exit Levels
If we hypothetically enter a bitcoin long in 2022 between 30k-35k, and the same trend continues to be at 50k/55k by March 2024, then expect by end of 2025 to be taking profits if you hold the same trade open (i'm sure nobody will, i'm speaking to a hypothetical scenario of course).
