Bitcoin ended 2024 with impressive results. In the fourth quarter, the growth of market capitalization was 55%, and the realized capitalization was 28.9%. This exceeded the indicators of the first quarter, although the growth of market capitalization was then slightly higher at 58%.
Compared to previous cycles, 2024 was less impressive, because in previous years the growth of market capitalization reached 100%, and the realized capitalization was 50-70%.
Despite this, optimism among Bitcoin owners remains, which may contribute to long-term growth in 2025, although short-term corrections are also possible.
