South Korea’s Bitcoin Price Slips 2%: BTC Trades at Deepest Discount of 2025

Bitcoin has already shown a lot of strength in recent times, pushing as high 
as $123,000 before trailing back down toward $117,000. So far, it looks like 
the digital asset has hit a roadblock and is now possibly looking at a peak. 
But analyst Merlijn The Trader has explained that it is far from over for 
Bitcoin with more rallies to come. He reveals that the Bitcoin price is yet to 
stage its ‘final act’, which must happen before there are talks of a top. 
Bitcoin 4-Year Cycle Is Still In Play After the Bitcoin price rallied to new 
all-time highs pre-halving, which had never happened before, there were talks 
that the 4-year cycle had been broken. For clarification, the 4-year cycle is 
tied to the Bitcoin halving events, which take place every four years, cutting 
block rewards for miners in half. Related Reading: Bitcoin Re-Enters Profit 
Zone As Greed Rises, But Rally To $200,000 Still Possible However, the 
reduction in block rewards is not the only interesting thing about the 4-year 
cycle, because each halving also ushers in a new bull market. This has been 
the case for the past three bull cycles, and Bitcoin is also expected to 
follow this. Historically, the market rallies for around a year after the 
halving, with the top being reached one year later. Going by this trend, the 
Bitcoin price and the crypto market at large are expected to keep rallying 
before topping later this year. Pointing to this 4-year cycle, the analyst 
forecasts another stretch of price increases. The chart shows that price often 
declines for one year and then rallies for three years, and so far, the 
Bitcoin price has only been rallying for two, leaving 2025 as another year for 
rallying. Additionally, Bitcoin is still a long way from levels that have 
previously marked the top of previous bull markets. Thus, there is still a 
while before it hits its peak in 2025. Besides, each bull cycle has seen 
Bitcoin rise 3x higher than its previous all-time highs, and it is year to hit 
even 2x higher than its previous $69,000 high. How High Can BTC Go? If the 
4-year cycle is still in play, then it means that the Bitcoin price rally is 
far from done. In the analyst’s chart, he shows the possible top for Bitcoin 
based on past cycles, and BTC is still in the middle of the box. The top of 
this box puts the BTC price at around $200,000 before a top can be reached.

warns that Bitcoin is about to enter what he refers to as the “greenest 
stretch of them all”, pointing to another rally to all-time highs. If this 
forecast plays out, then Bitcoin is expected to see another 50% rally before 
the bull market is done. Featured image from Dall.E, chart from
