If you look at the charts, it seems that odd years have generally been good for Bitcoin both price-wise and adoption-wise, and even years have been rather boring and uneventful.

2009 = Satoshi releases Bitcoin. First bitcoiners.

2010 = Not much happened in this year.

2011 = Bitcoin becomes known to the outside world. Beginning of mainstream adoption. Dollar parity followed by first rise to $30. More bitcoiners.

2012 = Not much happened in this year again.

2013 = Interest in Bitcoin surges. Price rises from $13 to $265 in April then almost $1,300 in November. Way, way, way more bitcoiners.

2014 = Not much seems to happening in this year again. Price hasn't budged all that much. Interest is down from late 2013 levels.

So it follows that 2014 will probably be a rather disappointing year for Bitcoin (and indeed that has been the case). But 2015 should be an exciting year and we will see more interest and mainstream adoption happening in that year.



It can be true, not all the years must be crazy years for bitcoin, it will help to gain stability also.

Could well be that there is a pattern but I believe it is not an odd/even year pattern.

Well, its a good and hard question to comment and I really don't believe in this even and odd years thing but I also cant deny the fact that yes the figures say that and that's what the trend has been.
