Benjamin Cowen addresses claims of manipulation in Bitcoin price movements, particularly around midterm years.
Cowen points out that Bitcoin consistently rallies into early March during every midterm year, arguing that the narratives used to explain these moves often follow price action rather than drive it. He observes that each time, new rationalizations emerge but quickly fade from public memory by April, reinforcing his view that narratives adapt after the fact.
Cowen's perspective on the post-hoc evolution of market narratives aligns with his broader outlook on digital asset cycles, including his projection of continued Bitcoin weakness until mid-2026. His focus on the interplay between narratives and price action further complements previous analysis of Bitcoin and Gold appeal in times of fiat currency uncertainty.
