Bitcoin Price Surge In 2024
Bitcoin started in the year 2022 in the range of $46,310 and has decreased by 58.32% since then.
Meanwhile, as Bitcoin eyes a bull run, a well-known crypto analyst and trader, PlanB is of the opinion that in 2024, during the next Bitcoin halving, BTC will see a price jump.
To prove his predictions, the analyst posted a chart that depicts earlier price actions of Bitcoin. The chart indicates the stock-to-flow (S2F) live model which makes use of scarcity to understand Bitcoin’s value and predict its future price movement. The below chart represents Bitcoin price movement after Bitcoin’s third halving in May 2020.
The same is predicted by another crypto trader and analyst, Josh Rager who claims that Bitcoin is expected to see upward price movement after 2024 halving.
Interestingly, during the last halving on May 11, 2020, every block was created after the block reward was halved to 6.25 BTC. Hence, in 2024 halving this reward is halved to 3.125 BTC per block.
