Through March, Bitcoin’s price rose from 45,092 on average on the first day of the month all the way to around 57,627 at the closing.
This marks around 29% monthly gains in the price of bitcoin. In the first two months of the year, bitcoin’s price had increased 15% in January and 37% in February.
These increases mark the best start of the year for BTC since 2013. In that year, bitcoin had posted gains of about 300% in the first quarter. In contrast, 2018 would have to be remembered as the year when bitcoin had its worst first quarter. In that year, the cryptocurrency lost around 50% of its value in the same three-month frame. Currently, bitcoin has racked up six straight months in the green.

From mid-February 2020 onward through, the price seemed to be on a downward trend – it plummeted from almost $8,000 to $5,300 in just a couple of days in March 2020.
However, in the fourth quarter of 2020, the price surged from around $10,000 to $23,000.
