Bitcoin cycles and drawdowns
Each completed market cycle from a record high to its bottom and back to a new all-time high. Drawdown is measured from the cycle's peak (daily high) to its lowest daily low; recovery is the time from that bottom to the next record.
| Peak | Peak price | Bottom | Bottom price | Max drawdown | Recovery to new high |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| November 30, 2013 | $1,156 | January 14, 2015 | $171.51 | −85.2% | 1 year and 11 months |
| December 17, 2017 | $20,089 | December 15, 2018 | $3,191 | −84.1% | 2 years |
| November 10, 2021 | $68,790 | November 21, 2022 | $15,599 | −77.3% | 1 year and 3 months |
These cycles track Bitcoin's four-year rhythm around the halvings of 2012, 2016, 2020, and 2024. The 2013 top gave way to the long post–Mt. Gox bear market; the 2017 peak was followed by the 2018 bear; the March 2020 COVID crash cut the price in half in days before the run to the 2021 high; and the 2022 bear, deepened by the LUNA and FTX collapses, preceded the 2024–2025 cycle to the current all-time high.
The first time Bitcoin closed above each level
The first day Bitcoin closed at or above each round-number price, from its daily closing history. Bitcoin was already above $1.00, $10.00, $100.00 when daily coverage began in April 2013.
| Level | First close above | Close that day |
|---|---|---|
| $1,000 | November 27, 2013 | $1,002 |
| $10,000 | November 28, 2017 | $10,059 |
| $100,000 | December 8, 2024 | $101,236 |
