In 2023, Bitcoin outperformed almost all other asset classes including the global stock market and gold in growth dynamics.

BTC growth stood out this year growing by 163% in 2023.

Amid expectations of an imminent decline in interest rates, easing regulatory pressure from the United States and the expected approval of a Bitcoin ETF by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), analysts expect continued growth in crypto assets in 2024.
