What happened to the bitcoin price in 2013

Bitcoin averaged $192.65 per coin in 2013, surging 2204.4% from the $8.36 average of 2012. Annual moves of that size are rare and put 2013 among the most explosive years in the asset's modern history. The defining story of 2013: First major bubble: ~$13 to ~$260 in April, then to ~$1,100-1,150 in December; Cyprus crisis and China demand..

Bitcoin's 2010s took it from a fraction of a dollar to a global asset. After its first real pricing in 2010, it ran through the 2011 and 2013 bubbles, the Mt. Gox collapse and a multi-year bear market, and finally the 2017 mania that carried it near $20,000.

Adjusted for inflation, bitcoin's 2013 average of $192.65 equals about $266 in today's dollars. The conversion uses US Bureau of Labor Statistics CPI-U annual averages, so treat it as a close approximation rather than an exact figure.
