Topic: When is the Bear and Bull Markets for Altcoins? - page 2. (Read 380 times)

It has been said or happened many times mate that Bull market of altcoins are mostly happens
after Bitcoin make its way to the top as what we have seen many times before but make sure to be updated when altcoin is there.

What I also wanna hear is about BEAR MARKET OF ALTCOINS , that is what I never learn
from the start or have not understand the market for this(or maybe i am not truly interested because Im in Bitcoin)

exactly , and this is yes the right thought for Altcoins mate as it is truly hiding from Bitcoin
though sometimes some altcoins are going up but not the totality .

There will surely be a bull market and altcoin season also. some Altcoins will outperform Bitcoin also. So, the best time to invest in meaningful ones is now. Also ,When you see that any altcoin is outperforming bitcoin, The best idea isg u to take profit from them to buy more  Bitcoin before another bear market or just use liquidity mining/Bitget smart portfolio to pair them with Bitcoin to automatically take profit from them while you earn some Fees in APY for doing so .

As far as I remember from the 2016-2017 pre bull market it is quite different, when bitcoin gone high, altcoins will go down since traders are transferring their altcoins into bitcoin and it is happening vice versa when bitcoin dumps, altcoins pumps. It is different last bull market where bitcoin is the lead on where can the altcoin can go. My take is it is hard to expect the same thing again since it is not consistent and it has a chance to not be on the expected pattern.

Bull markets and bear markets for altcoins depend on Bitcoin. This can be seen from previous data, when Bitcoin is in a bull market, all altcoins are bullish, and when the Bitcoin market is bearish, altcoins are also bearish and can even fall sharply. Bitcoin dominance is also often used as a benchmark as a sign of Altcoin movements. Altcoins will be very volatile if Bitcoin experiences price declines and increases. In general, the bearish and bullish altcoin seasons follow the Bitcoin cycle.

I think I get the point that altcoins do tend to follow the bullish trend of Bitcoin but I would still like to know how possible is it that not all of them do because there are millions of altcoins out there and I can't deduce that all do move up during this period because most of these altcoins are what is known as shitcoins and their bull movement can just be of some minutes,hours, or days who knows, so if anyone is looking to catch some fun in investment in these coins, the more reputable ones would be more preferable.

We are still in the bear market and we just have to wait till when the bull market will come. There are many people especially cryptocurrency analysts, saying that the bull market will commence by next year. We are also close and we have not still seen the market improving in the way that would be purely visible for us to be certain that the bear market is leaving us for the bull that is loading.

Anything can happen in the market. Next year might come and we might not even see a strong bull market like the way have have been expecting it to come. It is important for us to keep accumulating because anything can still happen in the crypto sphere.

There is no specific bear or Bull market for altcoins because they are all dependent on the price of bitcoin. It is difficult to know that when the Bull and bear season of altcoins will initiate but we can see the ups and downs in bitcoin price so whenever it grows up there will be immediate growth in altcoins price too.

We are waiting for Bull season that will occur due to halving so it is named as bitcoin Bull season but actually all other coins Fluctuates in the same way as that of bitcoin. Bitcoin and ethereum moves up with each other which has some positive effects on the growth of other altcoins too.

Talking about bull run for altcoins, I can't really tell if there's a specific time that we should be expecting such because most of the altcoins respond to Bitcoin, so Bitcoin volatility and movements have great impact on them as they follow same trend as Bitcoin, so most time when Bitcoin is on the bull run they follow suit and if btc is experiencing a deep aswell, same goes with those altcoins, personally my experience has been that you observe Bitcoin closely and will get some insight into how other altcoins could possibly behave.

The very first thing one should know is why are there bull and bear markets. There is no rocket science in that, a bull market occurs when there is more demand and less supply, if we talk about Bitcoin, we know it has a limited supply, and when the demand increases and people who are holding Bitcoins aren't willing to sell, those who are willing to buy keep bidding higher so that they can buy some. On the opposite side, a bear market occurs when the same thing is reversed, which means there isn't much demand and there is more than enough supply, which means that more people are willing to sell as quickly as they can and there are fewer people interested in buying, so the sellers start dropping the price so that they can sell their assets as quickly as possible.

Now, if we talk about altcoin bull or bear markets, there aren't specific times for them, and they generally go up and down with Bitcoin and the reason is the same as I described above. When Bitcoin holders start dumping their Bitcoins and the market starts going down, people holding altcoins see that happening and they start selling as well, the same happens when the price of Bitcoin is going up, investors think altcoins will go up as well so they start buying. Cryptocurrencies that don't receive enough investments wouldn't gain high value even during a bull run.

Whatever anyone says the market always follows bitcoin.  Not saying if bitcoin goes up than all alts will.  But generally speaking that's how it works.  There is TA out there that indicates when bulls and bears start and end but if you can see bitcoin pumping like it has the last 30 days ypu will see alts follow.

Though you haven't heard about the bull and bear markets for altcoins, you must hear about alt season. Bull and bear totally depend on Bitcoin; hence, it is called the bull market and the bear market. Most of the altcoins follow the Bitcoin trends, though the growth ratio would differ from Bitcoin. When Bitcoin maintains stability during a bull run, we discover the alt season. That means it will be really bullish for altcoins. But altcoin would never make bull alone without Bitcoin.

Usually, they're first to go on a bull run than Bitcoin.
That's what I have noticed on them for the past years when we're approaching for Bitcoin's halving and bull run. But definitely, we tend to see the bull run of Bitcoin and then majority of the alts are following it. For some instances, there are the altcoins that are moving first just as I have said.
Looking and knowing for those is unknown.

From all the comments so far I have come to the conclusion that bitcoin has no specific bear and bull market on their own but hiding out under bitcoin. Altcoins have no bull market and whenever bitcoin price appreciate they are also increase. And I believe most people are not using it because of this nature of it. But that is not withstanding, altcoins is still good to invest.

There's a bull market for a stand-alone altcoin. I think we have seen it before with BNB, Dogecoin, and more. These coins have been hyped and entered the bull without Bitcoin climbing up.
How to spot the new altcoins that will do the same is a big problem though.
Right now, most altcoins rely on the Bitcoin bull, and when it's stagnant, so do them. Ethereum on the other hand had been moving without Bitcoin climbing up but that expected being the number 1 altcoin in the industry. Pepe also grew yesterday but I would not expect that memecoin to sustain it for a long time. Perhaps it's just the leftover hype and it's making its market move.
When does an altcoin grow? Whenever the SEC attacks them. That's one. XRP is the proof of it.
It needs a big trend and I don't think that it can easily be received now considering most of the investors are waiting for the Bitcoin ETF.

bitcoin sets the tone for the entire market it’s been said that if the price for btc is looking up then this might be a good indication that altcoins will also go up this is because altcoins are quite literally tied to btc due to altcoins’ exchange rate being dependent on the price of btc

however this is not always the case

there is a phenomenon called altseason wherein btc goes down typically after a bull run and everyone is pulling out their money and there are more people putting their money into altcoins instead
investing into trusted altcoins right before an altseason would be a smart move

Sometimes I'm also tempted to plan for this thing called altcoins bull led by etheruem just like we see it in bitcoin.I have heard of altcoins rally or bull during the time I joined this forum and that people made good money from hodling altcoins coupled with the bounty hunter rewards that was profitable then. But now, I don't know if there is altcoins rally because I'm yet to witness it separately from bitcoin.

I think bitcoin has over taking the altcoins by far and they become insignificant to bitcoin bull. So maybe we can safely say that bitcoin bull leads altcoins to their new prices and some die off after the price of bitcoin goes into correction mode. So the price of altcoins rally from the bull of bitcoin.

At first I thought that the bear run would be within the first 6 months of the year and the bull run would be in the last 3 months. However, that was not the case anymore because the cryptocurrency market is so unpredictable these days and is highly volatile.

Last 2018, we thought that it would finally recover but it got even worse. From almost $20k, it fell down briefly below $2k before settling around $3kish and the market did not really recover much until the late-2020s when BTC broke above $20k for the first time and even got up to $30k.

At the end of the day, it is all about anticipating the unexpected and we should be more prepared to any situation and acknowledging the results no matter what.

Alts may pump separately and have its own bull run state but we don't know on when this one would provably happen since majority are in focus on bitcoin. Mostly people just link the bull run to majority of crypto when Bitcoin bull run happen since we can't deny that the price of other altcoin really pump that's why other think that this is the only season where all altcoins will have a good rally. But they didn't realize that bull run also happen to some other alts but we cannot trust them its because some of those tokens are just been manipulated by its owners so that they can play with the emotion of people holding it then deceive them with unexpected actions that's why its hard to spot those altcoin bull run. This is the main reason on why I stick with bitcoin bull because we always see that great things will always happen to this asset.

You're right, some of them were having good prospect, but only few, how do we now know which one is good for an investment and which one should we refrain from, i want to believe that you understand that not every research made can give you adequate result or guarantee for not falling under a wrong crypto projects, but when we have it in mind that we are taking risk in whatever coin we invest, some will definitely yield profit while some may not.

 You are right that the terms bear market and bull market are commonly used in relation to Bitcoin, but they can also be applied to Altcoins.
It is important to note that Altcoins can have different use cases technologies and development teams which can impact their value and market behavior.
It is true that not all Altcoins receive the same level of attention as Bitcoin. But the Bitcoin is the King and how it will perform the other Altcoins will perform just like that.
