Yes. But sometimes things don't turn out the way we hoped for. There's the issue of Russia and the increasing number of new COVID-19 variants, greatly affecting the global economy. We can't expect Bitcoin to reach a new ATH in price, especially when the crypto market is moving in correlation with the stock market. People are mainly focused on rising food, gas, and energy prices. Those who have spare money to pour into Bitcoin, are usually whales and/or wealthy people. The rest are putting their money aside into things that matters most.
Unless the recession comes to an end, Bitcoin will have a hard time trying to break through $68k per coin. At least, we know BTC will experience a slight uptick in price shortly after the halving. It might not reach a new ATH in price, but at least it will be worth more than what it is right now. As long as you play your cards right, there should be nothing to worry about. Just my opinion
I hear you but I'm fine even if it doesn't happen in the timeframe I think I will. I don't believe COVID-19 will have much of an effect on Bitcoin price since Bitcoin hit its ATH during the pandemic. Also recessions happen all the time in a cyclic manner, every so many years. Everything will go back up and Bitcoin will be a part of it; it's all about the long game.
