Crypto goes up with unrest so this year was always gonna be huge with covid and the election. Once things settle down I expect sub 20k again. But we hopefully won't have something like a pandemic and Capitol raid to send it sky high again... But then again these things tend to not just stop over night.
its done well sans unrest
the last two crypto booms were during periods of overall positive if not strong global economic and market performance (2017, 2019).
crypto’s current boom is tied to a number of factors (in no particular order, lower btc trading supply, lower mining rewards/yields, emphasis on store of value, diversification from the stock market boom, institutional investment, USA fucking over our own currency, advances in use cases for crypto beyond price goes up). equities by-in-large have done well during the pandemic, so has residential real estate and precious metals
