📉 BTC just had its worst Q1 since 2018. Should we be worried? 📉
Let‘s put this in perspective. 👇
The Numbers:
· 2026 Q1: BTC down ~22% (currently trading around $68K)
· 2018 Q1: $BTC down nearly 50% during the deep bear market
· 2025 Q1: $BTC down 11.8%
So what does this mean?
Here‘s the important part: History shows a weak Q1 does NOT equal a bad year.
In 2020, $BTC dropped 10.8% in Q1 (thanks to COVID fears)… then rallied over 300% by year-end . In 2015—the last time Q1 was this weak—prices recovered modestly before surging in 2016 .
Analysts are calling this a “regular correctional phase” rather than a structural breakdown. The long-term trajectory? Still intact .
The bigger picture:
We’ve seen this movie before. Economic uncertainty, ETF outflows, and macro pressure are creating short-term pain .
But Bitcoin has survived 70%+ drawdowns before and come back stronger.
Zoom out. Breathe. This is crypto. 🌪️
Drop a 💎 if you’re holding. Drop something else if you're not.
