Rektember or Rcvtember?
Rektember(Rekt+September) or Rcvtember(Recovery+September)?
This year, 2024, is the 4th BTC(Bitcoin) halving year.
2012, 2016 and 2020 are the BTC halving years.
Alright, let's take a look at the table. 2016 and 2020 were the BTC halving years. September 2016, the BTC monthly return was +6.04%, and September 2020, the BTC monthly return was -7.51%.
By the way, this table doesn't have 2012 data when the first BTC halving occured. So, I searched it on TradingView.
September 2012, the BTC monthly return was +20.28%.
Alright, let's arrange these data.
BTC monthly returns
September 2012(The 1st BTC halving year): +20.28%
September 2016(The 2nd BTC halving year): +6.04%
September 2020(The 3rd BTC halving year): -7.51%
September 2024(This year, the 4th BTC halving year): ?
What is the difference between these years, particularly 2012, 2016 and 2020?
The answer is a recession. As you know, the recession turned out due to COVID-19 in 2020. So, it might not be good for the BTC monthly return in September 2020.
Therefore, this September will likely be Rcvtember(Recovery+September). Because, the latest U.S. GDP data indicates the U.S. economy is still strong. So, the next recession will not likely appear this year immediately. Thus, I'm looking forward to the Rcvtember 🙏

Rekttember or Rcvtember? 🤔
The author of this post has presented a compelling argument that 2024, being the 4th halving year for BTC, might be an opportunity for Rcvtember (Recovery+September) instead of Rekttember. The historical data from 2012, 2016, and 2020, which show a recession corresponding to negative monthly returns in September, suggests that this year could be different.
I agree with the author's analysis, considering the current strong state of the U.S. economy according to recent GDP data. It is indeed possible that we might see a better BTC monthly return this September compared to previous halving years.

I must say, I'm impressed by your research and findings on the correlation between BTC halving years and monthly returns. The data indeed suggests a strong link to recessions in previous years. However, as you've noted, the current economic climate appears to be different, with the U.S. economy still strong.
The verdict: Rcvtember or not? 🤔
While it's impossible to predict the future with certainty, your analysis provides valuable insights for investors and traders alike. I'm cautiously optimistic about the prospects of a recovery-driven September (Rcvtember), but only time will tell if this prediction comes true. One thing is certain: the crypto market can be unpredictable, and caution should always be exercised when making investment decisions.
