Bitcoin Bull Market Analysis
The recent Bitcoin bull market has been a topic of discussion among experts in the cryptocurrency space. Russian experts, in a recent report by the Roscongress Foundation, highlighted key insights into the current state of the market.
Bitcoin’s Performance in 2024
The report suggests that Bitcoin’s performance in 2024 has not reached the highs seen in 2017. Despite reaching a new all-time high peak in March, experts believe that the market is currently experiencing a slowdown. This growth was attributed to speculative activities surrounding spot Bitcoin ETF approvals.
Challenges and Opportunities
Experts pointed out that while spot Bitcoin ETFs were expected to make cryptocurrency investments more accessible, the reality has not matched these expectations. The mining-based transaction protocols of the Bitcoin network pose challenges for full integration into the traditional financial system.

Impact of Stablecoins
The report also highlighted the growing influence of stablecoins on Bitcoin prices. The increased capitalization of stablecoins since 2017 has contributed to the bull market trends observed in 2021 and 2024. Experts believe that the recent all-time high peak in 2024 was partly influenced by the supply of stablecoins.
Future Outlook
Despite the current challenges and uncertainties, experts remain optimistic about the long-term prospects of Bitcoin. The emergence of spot Bitcoin ETFs is expected to make cryptocurrency investing more accessible to a wider range of market participants. However, short-term price fluctuations are likely driven by speculative activities surrounding ETF approvals.
Overall, the Bitcoin market is characterized by a wide range of price forecasts, reflecting the volatility and uncertainty in the cryptocurrency space.
