Bitcoin's price has always been on a rollercoaster ride, leaving investors on edge. Bitcoin, the world's largest cryptocurrency, launched in 2009 has a fifteen-year history. However, let's start with the year 2021, which led to the most controversial year in the crypto era when the FTX exchange collapsed. On June 18, 2021, the price of Bitcoin was USD 35,787, a whopping 280 per cent surge from USD 9,411 on June 18, 2020. But investors who were overjoyed by this surge lost almost half their wealth on June 18, 2022, when the value plummeted by over 70 per cent to USD 19,017. The huge volatility prompted critics to dismiss cryptocurrencies as mere gambling assets, while advocates of cryptocurrency argued it was a mere blip, a consequence of broader market movements, including global interest rate hikes. But yet the final blow for crypto advocates was to come. The downward spiral of BTC continued into November 2022, and Bitcoin crashed below USD 16,000 when the famous FTX exchange meltdown happened. Bitcoin was declared dead by naysayers.
