According to CryptoQuant analysts, bear market cycles in crypto often follow a similar structure, with markets entering a final fear-driven phase before a real recovery begins. Analysts noted that while recent declines have exhausted investors, the biggest opportunities historically emerge when fear reaches its peak.
Experts analyzing Bitcoin (BTC) price action pointed out that previous market cycles typically included three major shock waves. While two of those waves are believed to have already played out, the current market structure still suggests the possibility of one final sharp correction. Bitcoin continues to trade around the $76,984 level as uncertainty and selling pressure remain elevated across the market.
Meanwhile, the SOPR metric, which measures whether short-term investors are selling at a profit or loss, highlights growing panic in the market. A SOPR reading below 1 indicates investors are realizing losses, something analysts view as a necessary process for eliminating “weak hands” from the market. CryptoQuant analysts believe that once panic selling subsides, Bitcoin and the broader crypto market could enter a powerful recovery phase.
