Bitcoin traded below $10,000 during the 2020 COVID crash, started 2022 near $47,000, and fell to $16,547 by year-end, a 64% drawdown tied to Federal Reserve rate hikes and the FTX collapse. Bitcoin later recovered, closing 2023 around $42,255 and gaining 121% in 2024 after spot Bitcoin ETF approvals in January, when institutional demand arrived at scale. By late 2025, Bitcoin surged above and then pulled back in 2026. Solana launched near $0.50 in 2020 and reached an all-time high of $294.33 in January 2025, a return of more than 130,000% from launch to peak. Solana’s 2021 bull run rose over 11,000% on NFT and DeFi adoption, followed by a 2022 decline after the FTX collapse, with a bottom near $8.13 in December 2022.
"Bitcoin's five-year run was not a straight line. BTC traded below $10,000 during the 2020 COVID crash, started 2022 near $47,000, and fell to $16,547 by the year's end, marking a 64% drawdown driven by Federal Reserve rate hikes and the FTX collapse."
"Afterwards, Bitcoin entered a recovery phase. BTC closed 2023 around $42,255 and gained 121% in 2024 after spot Bitcoin ETF approvals in January, which was the year institutional money arrived at scale. By late 2025, Bitcoin had surged above before pulling back again in 2026."
"What you need to understand about Bitcoin's five-year run is that although the drawdowns were brutal, every single recovery led to a higher price. This is exactly what makes the current price of around $75,860 worth paying attention to."
"Solana had a mazzy five-year run that many investors wish they had caught earlier. The token launched near $0.50 in 2020 and hit an all-time high of $294.33 in January 2025, a return of more than 130,000% from launch to peak. The 2021 bull run, driven by NFT launches and DeFi adoption, pushed the Solana price up more than 11,000% in a single year."
