This time pandemic served as a good time for bitcoin. This is all because of the increase in the usage of internet and people stayed within the home. During the pandemic people lost jobs and many looked for ways to make a living/money. This has landed more number of common public into the cryptocurrency market. During the same time period large scale investors made their entry into cryptocurrency. So, several good incidents happened in the market as a result of pandemic. The same can't be expected to take place if there is similar situation in the future.
And if the OP shell out a lil bit of his funds to bitcoin at that time of his posting last year, it was only about $11-12k per btc when he created this thread, he's already gaining huge profits even if he cashed out when bitcoin dropped at around $30k this year. However, I don't know if he continues his journey here because after creating this thread, he didn't go back. I guess, if he learned the price today of btc, he's regretting it if he didn't buy some last year.
But let us admit, though the pandemic brought a lot of negatives around the globe, it created a good impact to crypto as a whole. Bitcoin, on top, gained a lot of interest from people. Because as you said, a lot were stuck at homes looking for alternative sources of how to earn money. Also, bitcoin halving happened last year when most of the global population were in lockdown. So the news definitely reached out to a lot of households as people were confined to their homes. They learned more about crypto because they had the time to search and study it. So overall, pandemic brought a lot of good things to bitcoin and we are still enjoying it up until now, as adoption is increasing, not only by individuals or organizations but even as a country like El Salvador.
