Outcome evidence
Bitcoin opened 2023 in bearish conditions near ~$16.5k (Dec 2022/early-Jan 2023 was the tail of the FTX-driven bear market), consolidated, then entered a bottoming/recovery phase — BTC ~$25,897 on June 13, 2023 — a shift from bearish toward neutral.
Momentum turned clearly bullish in H2 2023: from mid-October bulls pushed price from ~$27,000 to ~$44,500, and BTC closed 2023 in the low-to-mid $40,000s (~$42k–$44k) — a full bearish→neutral→bullish transition realized within calendar 2023.
