Since its launch in 2009, Bitcoin’s price trend has been like a thrilling roller coaster journey, attracting the attention of global investors. On March 26, 2025, the price of a Bitcoin was approximately $87,505.46. Let’s review the price history since its release.

Early stage of birth (2009 - 2010): The beginning of obscurity

In 2009, Bitcoin was officially released. In the initial period, due to the very few people who knew it, its value was almost negligible, and 1 Bitcoin was worth only a few cents. It was not until May 2010 that the famous "10,000 Bitcoin Buy Pizza" incident occurred. These 10,000 Bitcoins were worth about US$25 at the time, marking the beginning of Bitcoin's actual price reference, and it is also a milestone event for Bitcoin to enter the real-life trading field. Since then, the price of Bitcoin began to fluctuate slowly, and by the end of 2010, the price reached around US$0.26.

First outbreak (2011-2013): Prices soar

In 2011, Bitcoin price ushered in its first significant increase, and driven by criminal transactions, the price of Bitcoin reached $31 in June, but then suffered a sharp pullback. Entering 2013, as more and more people recognize and participate, the price of Bitcoin has started a crazy upward trend. In April, the price of 1 Bitcoin reached a maximum of US$266, and it soared tens of thousands of times in four years. In November of the same year, the price of Bitcoin exceeded the $1,000 mark in one fell swoop, shocking the global financial market.

Twisted Development (End of 2013-2016): Policy Shocks and Troughs

In December 2013, the People's Bank of China and five other ministries issued the "Notice on Preventing Bitcoin Risks", and the price of Bitcoin began to decline. In 2015 and 2016, the Bitcoin market was relatively flat, with prices hovering at low levels, and even forgotten by the market, and in an unknown state.

The peak of the bull market (2017): Prices reach the top

In 2017, Bitcoin broke out again. Although the People's Bank of China and seven other ministries issued relevant announcements in September, demanding that domestic exchanges be closed, the price of Bitcoin has not been continuously suppressed. Various exchanges opened platforms overseas, and the price of Bitcoin continued to rise, reaching a historical high of nearly US$20,000 in December of that year, and the domestic price once reached 120,000 yuan per coin, which aroused crazy pursuit by global investors.

Subsequent fluctuations (2018 - so far): ups and downs

In 2018, the price of Bitcoin did not fluctuate much, and the price always hovered between 20,000 and 25,000 yuan. On April 1, 2019, the price of Bitcoin suddenly soared, reaching US$5,000 at one point, and exceeded US$10,000 again on June 20. In 2020, Bitcoin experienced its third halving, and the price rose accordingly. It exceeded $10,000 on February 9, and encountered "Black Thursday" on March 12, with the price falling from $8,000 to $4,860. The price then began to rebound, breaking the $20,000 mark on December 16. Bitcoin prices continued to rise in 2021, with a maximum of more than $64,000. Since then, the price of Bitcoin has continued to fluctuate under the influence of regulatory policies and market sentiment and other factors, reaching approximately US$87,505.46 on March 26, 2025 .
The drastic fluctuations in Bitcoin prices reflect the continuous changes in market recognition, regulatory policies, and technological development as an emerging digital currency. When investors pay attention to the price of Bitcoin, they need to comprehensively consider the impact of a variety of factors.
