Bitcoin is headed for the fourth annual decline in its history, and the first one that didn’t coincide with a major scandal or industry meltdown. While the latest decline is a much milder correction than in the previous three down years, it’s happened against a vastly different backdrop. Since the last major crypto crash in 2022, institutional adoption has widened, regulation has matured, and the industry has found its arguably most important champion in US President Donald Trump.
