Looking back at Bitcoin's price movement on Christmas Eve over the past dozen years reveals a fascinating market journey. From $666 in 2013 to $87,340 in 2025, the data tells a story of explosive growth punctuated by sharp corrections.

The progression shows distinct patterns: early volatility ($323 in 2014), gradual recovery ($455-$899 in 2015-2016), then the first major breakout hitting $13,926 by 2017. The subsequent bear market pulled it down to $4,079 in 2018, yet by 2020 we saw $23,736—a significant milestone. The bull run intensified with $50,822 in 2021 before another correction to $16,822 in 2022.

What stands out is the recent trajectory: $43,665 in 2023, $94,120 at last year's Christmas Eve (the all-time high for that holiday), and $87,340 this year. The data underscores Bitcoin's cyclical nature—periods of euphoria followed by purges, yet maintaining an underlying uptrend across the decade-long span.

These snapshots from Christmas Eve serve as useful historical markers for understanding market sentiment and long-term Bitcoin adoption patterns.

Looking at this increase, I really... from 666 to 87,340, how many newbies would it take to create this?

Ha, starting to recount past mistakes again, but this time looking at the data really makes me reflect. In 2017, I didn't buy at $13,926; in 2021, I didn't fully stake at $50,822, and now in 2024, here we go again... On-chain data looks good, but that doesn't mean the wallet is doing well, brother. That day, I was still shouting in the group at $94,120, but it crashed in a week... This is the rise and fall of market sentiment, the mainland of market emotions. Retail investors can never get the rhythm right. But on the other hand, a ten-year increase of 130 times... Can the bottom be any deeper? When will the bottom consensus arrive?
