The COVID Crash - Bitcoin's Best Buying Opportunity

March 12, 2020 - dubbed 'Black Thursday' in crypto - saw Bitcoin crash 50% in a single day as COVID-19 panic liquidated global markets. Bitcoin fell from $7,900 to under $4,000, with prices briefly touching $3,800 on some exchanges. In hindsight, this was one of the greatest buying opportunities in Bitcoin's history. Within 20 months, Bitcoin would reach $65,000 - a 16x increase from these panic lows. Those who bought during the fear saw extraordinary returns.
