Bitcoin nears rare six-month losing streak amid market pressure
Bitcoin is approaching a six-month losing streak. Such a period has occurred only once before — from August 2018 to January 2019.
Highlights
- Bitcoin nears rare six-month losing streak last seen in 2018–2019
- Macroeconomic uncertainty and Fed policy weigh on crypto markets
- BTC remains 47% below ATH as investor concerns grow
Will the negative record repeat?
According to Coindesk, just hours before the end of March, Bitcoin is close to repeating its seven-year-old anti-record, when BTC declined for six consecutive months.
At the time of writing, Bitcoin’s price was down 0.7% over the past 24 hours, trading at around $66,900. A daily close above $67,300 would allow Bitcoin to finish March with a slight gain. However, geopolitical risks and macroeconomic uncertainty make a second six-month downturn in Bitcoin’s history increasingly likely.

Data from Coinglass shows Bitcoin fell by 4% in October, 18% in November, and 3% in December. The downtrend continued into 2026, with declines of 10% in January and 15% in February. On the last day of March, Bitcoin is balancing between gains and losses. At the same time, it remains 47% below its all-time high, and its future trajectory continues to concern investors.
Unpredictable situation
Ongoing geopolitical tensions — including conflicts in the Middle East and instability across several emerging markets — are putting noticeable pressure on the crypto market. In such conditions, investors tend to reduce exposure to risk assets like Bitcoin, reallocating capital into safer instruments such as gold and U.S. government bonds.
At the same time, the macroeconomic situation in the United States remains a key factor for the crypto market. Despite expectations of monetary easing, the Federal Reserve is acting cautiously due to persistent inflationary pressure. Delays in interest rate cuts are limiting liquidity inflows into financial markets and reducing investor appetite for crypto assets, reinforcing the current downward trend.
