Bitcoin Surged 290% After 2019 Shutdown—Can It Replicate From $105,000?

Bitcoin climbed 290% in the five months following the 2018-2019 U.S. government shutdown, rising from approximately $3,500 to nearly $14,000. With the Senate advancing legislation to end the current 40-day shutdown—the longest on record—Bitcoin trades near $105,000. Analysts question whether the 2019 pattern can repeat, citing stark differences in market structure, valuation levels, and macroeconomic conditions between the two cycles.
