Bitcoin often gains in October but Q4 gains are less consistent; XRP and others show mixed seasonal results.

Analysis of crypto seasonality from 2017 to 2025 shows Bitcoin tends to gain in October, with 7 of 9 years positive and a median gain of 10.9%. However, the full fourth quarter is less reliable, with only 5 of 9 years positive and a median gain of 5.4%, as November and December often erase October's gains. Ethereum shows modest October gains but stronger quarterly returns, while XRP generally posts losses in October and Q4. Solana's short history makes seasonal trends unclear. The recent 2025 Q4 was negative for all four major coins. Investors should consider these trends cautiously and factor in tax holding periods rather than relying solely on seasonal patterns for timing decisions.

The story on Bitcoin's October performance is presented with Pluang market data as of Oct 04, 2026 13:21 WIB. Of 50 major cryptocurrencies priced on Pluang, 35 rose and 14 fell today. Notable movers include YFI at Rp48.268.991 with a 3.80% increase and a typical hold time of 93 days, MANA at Rp1.899 down 3.75%, and COMP at Rp451.221 up 3.69%.
