Today's Historical Context
Closest match: Jun 2022 · 86% similar

Today most closely resembles Jun 2022. The resemblance isn't the date — it's the setup: a similar position in the cycle, a comparable drawdown from the high, and a attractive valuation backdrop. What followed then is context, not a forecast.

If history rhymes, today deserves attention — not because it predicts tomorrow, but because environments this cheap have historically been uncommon.

The Research Desk

Monday rewards a clear head more than a strong opinion.

The weekend's moves feel decisive in the moment and forgettable by Wednesday. Bitcoin's position in the cycle didn't change overnight — and it remains cheaper than 77% of its history. Reset the noise; keep the context.
