從5美元到83,000美元 - 數字淘金熱仍在

自2012年聖帕特里克節交易以來，比特幣已經走了很長一段路。現在，2025年，全球最大的數字貨幣已達到83,223美元

From a mere $5 to an astounding $83,000, Bitcoin’s price journey over 13 years is nothing short of remarkable. Beginning Saint Patrick’s Day 2012 with a value of just $5.34, the world’s leading digital currency has today reached $83,223, marking a staggering 1,558,000% increase.

從僅$ 5到令人驚訝的83,000美元，比特幣的價格旅程超過13年，這簡直是顯著的。從2012年開始聖帕特里克節（Saint Patrick's Day），價值僅為5.34美元，全球領先的數字貨幣今天達到了83,223美元，標誌著驚人的1,558,000％。

As we navigate the year 2025, it’s interesting to recall Bitcoin’s price movements in the earlier years. In just one year, from 2012 to 2013, BTC price went up 780%, reaching $47. The next year, it surged again to $630, a 1,240% increase from 2013.

當我們在2025年瀏覽時，回想起比特幣早期的價格變動很有趣。從2012年到2013年的短短一年，BTC價格上漲了780％，達到47美元。第二年，它再次飆升至630美元，比2013年增長了1,240％。

However, Bitcoin price movements have been anything but smooth. By 2015, it had retraced to $290, but by 2017, it climbed to $1,180, and in just one more year, it hit $8,321—a 605% increase. Even after a pullback to $4,047 in 2019, the next five years saw Bitcoin go from $5,002 in 2020 to $83,223 in 2025.

但是，比特幣的價格變動絕非平穩。到2015年，它已回顧至290美元，但到2017年，它攀升至1,180美元，僅在一年之內，它達到了8,321美元，增長了605％。即使在2019年的撤退到4,047美元之後，接下來的五年，比特幣也從2020年的5,002美元到2025年的83,223美元。

Despite its volatility, Bitcoin’s long-term trajectory remains upward, driven by increasing demand and fixed supply. Unlike fiat currencies, which governments can print indefinitely, Bitcoin’s supply is capped at 21 million coins. As more individuals, institutions, and even governments adopt Bitcoin, scarcity drives prices higher.

儘管它具有波動性，但比特幣的長期軌跡仍在向上上升，這是由於需求增加和固定供應而驅動的。與政府可以無限期打印的法定貨幣不同，比特幣的供應限額為2100萬個硬幣。隨著越來越多個人，機構甚至政府採用比特幣，稀缺性的價格提高了價格。

Several major factors are contributing to Bitcoin’s growing adoption in the last year:

去年，有幾個主要因素促成了比特幣不斷增長的採用：

The U.S. Strategic Bitcoin Reserve – United States Senator Cynthia Lummis and Congressman Nick Begich both introduced legislation to green light the U.S. to purchase 1,000,000 BTC for their strategic reserves, further solidifying its legitimacy and causing other countries potential FOMO in.

美國戰略比特幣保護區 - 美國參議員辛西婭·盧米斯（Cynthia Lummis）和國會議員尼克·貝吉奇（Nick Begich）都引入了立法，以綠色地闡明美國為其戰略儲備購買了1,000,000 BTC，進一步鞏固了其合法性，並引起了其他潛在的FOMO。

Corporate Adoption – Companies like Strategy, Metaplanet, and Rumble continue adding Bitcoin to their balance sheets, treating it as a strategic reserve asset.

公司採用 - 諸如戰略，Metaplanet和Rumble之類的公司繼續在其資產負債表中增加比特幣，將其視為戰略儲備資產。

Spot Bitcoin ETFs – The approval of Bitcoin spot ETFs in the U.S. has opened the floodgates for institutional investment, allowing hedge funds, pension funds, and retail investors to gain exposure to Bitcoin through regulated financial products.

現貨比特幣ETF-美國的比特幣現貨ETF的批准為機構投資開放了閘門，允許對沖基金，養老基金和零售投資者通過受監管的金融產品獲得對比特幣的風險。

These ETFs have collectively purchased over 1 million BTC.

這些ETF共同購買了超過100萬BTC。

Halving – On April 19th, 2024, Bitcoin underwent its fourth halving event, where the block reward for those mining Bitcoin was cut in half from 6.25 BTC per block to 3.125 BTC per block. This decrease in the amount of daily new bitcoin issued on the market historically leads to an increase in the price of BTC. Bitcoin halvings occur roughly every 210,000 blocks (approximately every four years).

減半 - 2024年4月19日，比特幣進行了第四次減半賽事，其中那些採礦比特幣的蓋帽獎勵從每塊6.25 BTC減少到每塊3.125 BTC的一半。從歷史上看，在市場上發布的新比特幣的每日比特幣數量減少導致BTC的價格上漲。比特幣過度大約每210,000個街區（大約每四年）發生。

With demand skyrocketing and supply shrinking due to upcoming Bitcoin halvings, Bitcoin seems poised to continue its historic rise in price. If history is any indicator, the best time to buy Bitcoin was years ago—the second-best time might be today.

由於即將到來的比特幣過度，需求飆升和供應量縮小，比特幣似乎有望繼續其歷史上漲的價格上漲。如果歷史記錄是任何指標，那麼購買比特幣的最佳時間是幾年前 - 第二好的時間可能是今天。
