These days it feels like everyone’s super optimistic. With states in the US voting on reserves and more big corporations jumping on the bitcoin bandwagon, it’s like the only folks still being negative about bitcoin are the hardcore haters. What’s your take on the bear market? Is it a possibility? Anyone here who’s been in the bitcoin space for a while, what do you think about a possible downturn? What are the trends and key indicators we should be looking at? Are we just drowning in bullish hype right now?

Noone can talk surely and accurately about future but if you dig deeply about the past, past market cycles, you will know more about this market and have some sort of data for your price forecast in this market cycle for upcoming months. Bitcoin price history, ATHs and bottoms.Are you ready for the Bitcoin bull market? What's your plan? Some ideas for you. This market cycle can move faster or slower than previous market cycles and from what has happened so far, I see it is a faster market cycle. Two topics have some insights for you but as said, they can not help you predicting future correctly.

There has not been a bear market recently, at least as far as bitcoin is concerned. There has been a dip, but within normality. In US stocks there has been a more pronounced fall, and there was more fear of a bear market, but seeing that stocks are recovering and that bitcoin seems to be breaking the $95,000 resistance today, I don't see the point of talking about a bear market. On the contrary, what I wonder is whether we are entering the best of the bull run.

Cause it went up. By quite a bit from the last dip we had of 75k, so yeah, a lot of people are either more on the bullish side or neutral side of not really thinking that anything of both sides is going to happen, just steady stuff. And you can see in the market anyway, we're up 16% from last month, so no surprise there. So are we in the bullish season already? Personally don't think so. Maybe wait till 100k and how the market reacts, then we'll know. Are we bearish? I mean, even back at 75k I've already said that we aren't soooo, no we also aren't even now. At this point, again, if 75k was a buy area, this area is kind of like a waiting game for the most part.

Because we’re not in a bear market anymore... If the price keeps struggling, then yeah, maybe it makes sense to talk about it. But you know how people are, they usually just react to what’s happening now. And from what I see, the bear market looks over (hopefully!). For one, more people are getting interested again since Bitcoin survived, recovered, and is now trading close to $100k. If that keeps up, the hype will follow, investors will start thinking Bitcoin’s about to break out and hit a new all-time high.

Why should any bitcoiner be talking about a bear market in these bullish times? Even when bitcoin dipped a bit to 75k, people were still bullish, talk more of now that it's approaching 100k. Like I always say, Bitcoin is not tied to any government or world leader, so it will eventually be fine no matter what they do. Of course, the actions and inaction of world leaders and governments might affect bitcoin a little, but in the long run, bitcoin always finds its own way, because those who trust in bitcoin will always demand it, and as long as there's demand, it will go up eventually. We're still in a bull season and it will be like that for all of or the majority of the year.

Many here are talking about bitcoin falling, maybe the thread was already there a few months ago but it is still active until now. Speaking now the market is not weakening, it is actually rising almost close to $100K you can check the market now --- like we used to be always optimistic that bitcoin would rise even though it had to go through many obstacles over the past few months, but now it's nice to see the market back in the green.

Since you are just that new then you would be needing up to know about on how this market cycle works. •We do have that 4-year cycle (Bearish trend- sideways- Bull run) -And since we are already on this bull run year, then you could be able to expect that everything will be able to read up that tons of positive sentiments towards Bitcoin or crypto as a whole on which this one is already that being anticipated. For those who had been here on this market for a while specially to those who had been able to experience those previous bull run then the signs on which we are already near that there are those positive sentiments around on which it could drive on the price to the moon. After that? Here comes that bearish season on which you should be preparing for that and always be that having that stable coins into your exchange and made out that shopping spree. You will be definitely be able to see the extreme fear in the entire market specially if its been that showered with tons of negative news around like bans, prohibitions. lawsuits, hacking indicidents and other negative that could cause up that huge down in the market on which everyone will be getting scared with that, but for those who do have experiences then for sure they do just simply treat it out to be an ordinary day here on this space.

Why would people talk about a bearish market when all that’s happening right now marks a bullish market. When the market is bullish, of course the people will celebrate with it, but if the market turns bearish which will definitely come once a bullish market ends, then people will also be flexible enough to lower their price expectations. There is always a time for a market to become bullish or bearish, and I don’t think there is a need for the people to voice it out. If you are actually a real crypto investor, you will know whether the market is bullish or bearish by observing how the market price moves.

We are entering what has historically been the most bullish period of Bitcoin’s 4-year cycle. Could that change and the price go to zero instead this time? Sure. Anything is possible. Would I be surprised if Bitcoin went up 700% in the next 4 months? No. I’ve seen it before and more than once. There are too many bullish factors at play right now for the price to fall. It would take a crazy unexpected event.

Market trends determine people mindset and statements and if you check in recent time, there have not been any presence of bear market and there is more of bull tendencies so for that, speculators will not only mentioned either bull market or corrections level as the case may be, but bear market is far from the discussion now unless, when the market decline back and slide into bear market then we could see more comments regarding that conditions.

Of course, it's still around but we're currently in a bull run so why talk about it? Soon, it will come and mostly are going to talk about when the bull market will come. There is no other better pattern to rely on than the 4-year cycle of Bitcoin. Every after halving, the bull run comes next year. And after the bull run, next year comes the bear market. I'd say yes. We're still bullish from this point and can't you see that the price has recovered a lot after it has reached back to $74k? we're doing good to be honest and that's a good sign that we're doing a healthy recovery. What's more exciting on what will happen next for the coming months to come.

A bear market is an inevitable side of Bitcoin's cycle. After a bullish season, there is always a period of stability and then a correction which leads the market to a bearish season. Nobody can predict accurately when it's going to happen, but it will at some point. The more accurate is your feeling on this matter, the better, as you will know when to enter and when to leave the market in the right time. In my opinion, by the end of this year we are going to face the bear, but not at the point of Bitcoin reaching the lows it reached on the previous bearish season. If Bitcoin drops to 60,000$ or so I will already consider it a deep correction and a bearish market.

So 72k to 97k does not work for you? Fuck off is my first thought. But maybe you had a big play at 67k. You are burnt. You  could put in a buy for 71k and come back when it hits. Maybe in 2026 or 2027

Not too long ago we've seen so many people bearish about bitcoin, what it needs is a little flash dump and people are already so bearish. People's sentiment come and go in a fast manner, they are reactive, I've been talking about how people gonna get sidelined if they dumped their bitcoin at recent flash dump and that it's just a bear trap, turns out it's really just a bear trap. Now that people seeing large institutional adoption popping up and strategic reserve bill passed, people become bullish. Honestly, do your own research is the best way, people in twitter or any other form of social media mostly just following the hype.

The market is on bullish and it is wait for the right time to see the market moves and make Bitcoin price rally. Once that is finish, we will see the bear market and that means, the price will go down and the bear market will start. But we will still see the correction come to the market because that will always like that. If the market is on bear market, that will be the time to start accumulate because the price will goes down to the low price. That will be your time to buy Bitcoin and start hold it. So you don't have to panic but use that time for your benefit by buying more Bitcoin. The pattern now seem go up because Bitcoin already back to $97k. If this is happen, we may see $100k in this few days. But if not, we need to wait for more.

Yeah, been wondering myself. The Bitcoin cycle is already in danger of invalidated -- another ATH would clearly take us into new territory re 4-year post halving cycles (if all the other events like a pre-halving ATH didn't already). Global markets never suffered the super crash I'd been waiting for last year and we might very well end this one with BTC still close to or over 100k. It's all pretty meaningless to me in terms of wealth, since I no longer have anything significant. But still interesting to see that the majority do think a proper bull is imminent. And that usually is a signal for the opposite...

Definitely Bitcoin experiences bear and bull season, even if people anticipate more about bull than bear does not mean that there is no Bear season. For now we still assume to be in bulrun as Bitcoin is still bullish despite dipping, it'll still rise again.. Bear season is easily identifiable because it takes Alot time to recover from the bear. Bitcoin bear and bull season takes almost 4 years in each circle. So we recently moved from bear to bull and we will still find ourselves in bear and later to bull. It's just a normal thing in the cryto world so you shouldn't panic. All I can advice you is to buy some Bitcoin and stack for future use.

Yes, bull season is something we are all expecting at the moment and because of that we are going to end up with a much bigger price, everyone is literally expecting 120k+ bitcoin price at minimum. Some people are expecting even more, to tune of 200k+ or 300k+. This means there won't be many people talking about bear right now, why would they, majority still expect bull run , and when majority does that, the silent minority doesn't really voice their fears of price going down. That is the most important part, when people have some hope of bull run, the bear people do not talk about it that much and shouldn't be really considering it that great. Even if you think it will go down, you do not talk about it to jinx how it is going great at the moment.
