Déjà vu? A pattern seems to repeat each year. Each year since 2015, Bitcoin made the low of the year in mid-Januari. Coincidence? According to some people this is because of the Lunar/Chinese New Year. Perhaps money is flowing back to fiat to buy presents, plane/train tickets and so on. This year, 2018, the Chinese new year is on Februari 16.
