I happened to come across an interesting set of data, reviewing Bitcoin price trends during Christmas over the years. The most impressive was Christmas 2024, when BTC surged to $98,200, setting a new all-time high. Looking ahead to Christmas 2025, the price was $88,000, which is still quite substantial.
What’s most shocking is comparing it to 2015, when the Bitcoin price on Christmas was only $456, and now it has increased by 192 times. Along the way, there were prices of $24,665 in 2020 and $50,430 in 2021, each Christmas revealing the market’s growth trajectory.
However, it’s now mid-2026, and the BTC price has retraced to around $77.63k. These historical figures still seem quite fascinating, witnessing over a decade of crazy gains.
