The 2024 Bitcoin halving will happen in less than three weeks. If historical chart patterns were to repeat, Bitcoin’s current $66,000 price would reach $434,280 per unit if it performs similarly to the current cycle by the 2028 halving.


Nonetheless, Bitcoin’s post-halving rallies have seen diminishing returns throughout the years. Until the first halving in 2012, Bitcoin increased from having virtually no value to $12.5, an over 12,400% increase. Bitcoin price gained 5,200% to $650 by the 2016 halving and 1,200% to $8,500 by the 2020 halving.

Thus, Bitcoin’s average price rallies fell by 45% each cycle to the current 658%. If this diminishing returns" trend repeats, Bitcoin will deliver a 360% rally during the next cycle, resulting in a roughly $303,600 BTC price at the 2028 halving.Bitcoin halving or ETFs having a bigger impact?


Bitcoin’s recent price surge is unrelated to the upcoming halving and mainly attributed to the inflows into spot Bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs), argues Hao Yang, head of financial products at Bybit, who told Cointelegraph:"Considering Halving and price trends, from a very rigorous quantitative point of view, there is no evidence supporting a positive correlation between Halving event and BTC price. But history can be interpreted in many different ways, I certainly hope 435K by 2028 but won"t put too much into it."


A six-figure BTC price appears even more possible if Bitcoin ETFs overtake gold ETFs, which is something that could happen in the next two years, according to a Feb. 26 research report from Bloomberg analyst Eric Balchunas.BTC&Gold price chart, 5-years, Source:Tradingview


Additionally, Bitcoin ETFs are growing at a much quicker pace than gold ETFs did when they first appeared in 2004. In fact, Bitcoin is “speedrunning” gold’s price by fivefold, says Sam Wouters, the head of contact at River, who wrote in a March 29 X post:“Bitcoin is basically just 5x speedrunning gold"s trajectory. The last 10 years of Bitcoin look a bit like a squished version of gold"s last 50. No wonder some people get salty.”
