However, an unusual event is about to take place that in the past has been associated with some of Bitcoin\u2019s most volatile periods throughout the last several years. Could volatility soon return in a big way? Post-Halving Bitcoin Price Action Trades Sideways, Consolidating Ahead Of Major Move Bitcoin and the rest of the cryptocurrency asset class often get a bad rap for the wild price swings and extreme volatility they are associated with. It\u2019s not uncommon for the asset\u2019s valuations to rise and fall 20 to 30% or more month to month, and even intraday. Thousand percent gains are often followed by a drawdown of over 80 to 90%. But as the first-ever cryptocurrency trades sideways post-halving, relative volatility has dwindled to some of the lowest levels ever recorded.

All kinds of information has been published related to the dramatic effect this period can have on human emotion and activity. According to astrology, Mercury in Retrograde specifically impacts communication and technology, and can negatively influence luck and mood, bringing misfortune. It also has repeatedly shown to spark extreme price volatility in Bitcoin. Mercury In Retrograde May Bring Return of Cryptocurrency&#8217;s Trademark Explosive Volatility In the chart above, each Mercury Retrograde phase is highlighted in red. Each phase also saw exceptionally powerful moves in the days leading up to and during each occurrence of the astrological activity. Astrology is the study of the celestial objects and their proposed divine impact on human affairs.
