🕯Bitcoin and the Business Cycle This chart overlays Bitcoin’s price with the business cycle oscillator - a macro tool tracking expansions (green) and contractions (red). Here’s what stands out: ➡️ Every single Bitcoin cycle top (2013, 2017, 2021) aligned exactly with the peak of the red bar section. ➡️ Those peaks marked overheated macro conditions - late-stage liquidity, risk assets maxed, and BTC euphoria. ➡️Today? We’re still deep in the green expansion phase. Historically, this is where Bitcoin grinds higher while liquidity remains loose. Bitcoin doesn’t top in the middle of growth phases. 🫡Powered by Venture Capital
