Kaiko Report: Bitcoin's Halving Anniversary — "This Time It's Different"

On the first anniversary of Bitcoin’s 2024 halving, prices range between $80,000 and $90,000. In terms of percentage gains, this is the weakest post-halving performance on record. Historically, Bitcoin typically experienced strong rebounds within 12 months after each halving: after the 2012 halving, BTC’s price skyrocketed by an astonishing 7,000%, while the 2016 and 2020 cycles saw gains of 291% and 541%, respectively. So far, the 2024 cycle has yet to follow this trend. Except for 2012, the price rallies that usually emerged nine months post-halving have clearly disappeared this time.

Get Rich or Get Wrecked?

This year's memecoin frenzy has been a major focus in the crypto market and across various blockchain ecosystems. Since the beginning of the year, the Solana ecosystem has seen the rise of many high-performing memecoins and memecoin launch platforms like Pump.Fun, attracting a large number of users to issue and trade various meme tokens.
