New Year 2018 - The Beginning of the Crash
Bitcoin entered 2018 at $13,412, having just come off its $19,783 all-time high two weeks earlier. Most retail investors were still euphoric, expecting further gains. Instead, 2018 would be a brutal year - Bitcoin would fall 84% to around $3,200 by December. The 2018 bear market wiped out trillions in paper gains and became known as the 'crypto winter.' Yet those who held through to 2021 ultimately saw their investment become profitable.
