The price promotion of Bitcoin in the past 18 months has usually been in a bullish cycle on the macro end, with the leading cryptocurrency create new price heights At new price heights within this period.

Correlation with Bitcoin?
Interesting is that only 41.7% of the Metaplanet characters are directly in line with the corrections of Bitcoin. Of the 12 identified mini-bear markets, only 5 found synchronously with the falls from BTC. The majority (7 of the 12) was not related to Bitcoin and were caused by company -specific factors instead. According to Moss, these factors include command exercises, fundraising activities and compression of the Bitcoin premium that Metaplanet acts compared to its BTC Holdings.
However, the two most serious drawings overlap overlapping with Bitcoin volatility. The -78.6% collapsed in the end of 2024 and a drawing of -54.4% both coincided with periods in which Bitcoin himself underwent corrections. These overlapping events suggest that while BTC volatility Sometimes it contributes to the training, The stock sales of Metaplanet usually go beyond Bitcoin Deputy.
What this essentially means is that instead of BTC 4-year-old cycles, BTCTCs now look more like 4 cycles in 1 year.
