Bitcoin has faced erratic price fluctuations during the holiday season, mainly due to low liquidity levels. This lack of liquidity has affected Bitcoin’s recovery attempts, hindering significant price movements and reflecting the overall bearish mood in the market.
Analysts at QCP Capital highlight a key catalyst expected in January, potentially shaking up Bitcoin’s price trajectory. With $1.8 billion exiting Bitcoin ETFs since mid-December, and Microstrategy slowing its acquisitions, it appears institutional interest is waning as the year comes to a close.
Bitcoin ends 2024 with a notable 120% gain, outpacing traditional assets like stocks and gold. QCP analysts anticipate a positive influence from regulatory developments in 2025, alongside increased institutional adoption, which may lead to stabilized price dynamics and heightened market maturity.
