Dune drives Bitcoin skyrocketing? BTC hit new highs after the movie was released

The price of Bitcoin soared to $69,080 last night, setting a record high in history in the past two years. Although there was a sharp fall later, the price rose again to above $65,000 this morning and continued to fluctuate at high levels.

Social media suddenly started circulating a meme chart showing that the filming and release of the well-known science fiction movie "Dune" coincided with the time when Bitcoin hit new highs, sparking heated discussions on social media.

Is the Dune Effect Real?

Because it is so amazing, the editor will help readers verify it based on Wikipedia information and online records.

Dune Film Director Announced

In November 2016, Legendary Pictures acquired the film and television production rights to the novel "Dune" and subsequently confirmed director Danny Wheeler in February 2017 Nav will direct the film.

At that time, the price of Bitcoin was about US$1,100, which was still a long way from the US$19,000 reached at the end of 2017.

Dune Part 1 was released

It was released on October 22, 2021. At that time, the price of Bitcoin exceeded $66,000, approaching a record high.

Dune Part 2 was released

It was released on March 1, 2024. At that time, the price of Bitcoin reached approximately US$63,000, and it really broke through a new high of US$69,000 a few days later.

Judging from the above three points in time, it will take more time to verify whether it is a simple coincidence or whether there is a mysterious force somewhere. After all, when the movie was announced to be filmed in 2017, it was still far from the high point, and it is still unknown whether the release of the second film means that Bitcoin has reached its high point.
