In my discovery the bear market does not favour only for Investors but also the signature campaign participants, when the bear very low the pay in BTC is high and when the price has increased then you sell it as high price. But if the price of bitcoin which is the bull market and you are paid as a campaign participants the amount of bitcoin would be small. So most campaign participants like the bear market for some times before going up of the price.
Investors are most likely more happy when the price is low because they buy at that time and sell and the bull market. So it is good for them as well.
At the end of the day the lowest price of Bitcoin will continue to move up over time.
As long as you keep buying or earning it and saving it, you should be alright in the long term. It doesn't matter too much if you bought at the top, just look at the top prices a decade ago.
