Then in October, global searches for "bitcoin" and "BTCUSD" hit multi-year lows, so the timeline is not imagining it. Even the relative who explains Bitcoin to everyone at family dinners has gone suspiciously quiet.

Before anyone writes an obituary, a reminder of what Google Trends actually measures. It measures curiosity. It does not measure ownership, trading volume or on chain activity. And a lot of the biggest money, ETFs, pension funds and OTC desks, has never typed a search into Google in its life. Those desks have better things to do than check whether "bitcoin" is trending.

So Bitcoin is not being forgotten, it is being left on read. The coins are still there, the blocks keep coming, and the only thing that went quiet is the search bar.

No price talk and no predictions here, just vibes and a Google Trends score.
