We have Entered the Bear Market Now.
Time to Start Buying, but not all at once, partial buys.  ;)
BTC dominance rising, some altcoins returning to the same level as 2020, and BTC falling further will crash some more altcoins.

I think you are rather too late to notice the arrival of the bear market which has already started since last year only in a gradual process, at this point I would say we are well into the bear market season.
You are right, this is the time to build a healthy portfolio for the next bull market, partial buys is always the best approach because the market keeps dropping and you can always dca every time it goes lower.
Let's assume most of us are taking advantage the bear season in the way we can afford. I look forward to another bull season.  ;)

It may just be a good time to start acquiring alts and drops again and build up one's stash. But this is the crypto market, you never know what is in store.

I have been trying to accumulate more tokens in my wallet. So many tokens were going back to the yearly low or even deeper. It's a bit too late to accumulate as the market is slowly recovering again even so many traders didn't even care anymore with tesla who has sold 75% of its bitcoin.
I guess if the dump was also getting triggered caused by the big sell by tesla as well. There's also statement if that company will buy bitcoin again soon. This bearish market may going for so long.
Anyone already prepared their money to bought more tokens at the bottom price. It seems like that market was showing a recovery signal.

  with a bear market means there is a good opportunity to invest in crypto and be able to buy at low prices. I have also now started buying crypto, because I don't want to miss this great opportunity not to buy crypto. so I will buy crypto because this is a good time to buy crypto and eventually there will be a bull market. and we will get the maximum profit

But hopefully, altcoins don't crash if bitcoin declines again because it could be an opportunity for altcoins to rise again.
But the current bitcoin price has returned to the $22k level and has made many altcoin prices also go down, even though some altcoins have not experienced a sharp decline.
But we must still be prepared if the bear market does come back because it could cause the crypto market to experience a deep crash.
The important thing is that we can prepare some money to buy bitcoin at a low price and maybe it is a good time to buy it this year.

It is noticeable that many of the altcoins have really gone down again after the push and bear market that we went through.

That's typically the market that we're used to see and that's why if you're someone that still keep on collecting on random altcoins, you'll start to think if it's worth it.

And also, if you've seen that your portfolio has grown a lot but you never sold any of them. You are for sure have been regretting that you've became greedy and never took the time to sell for your profit.

Im still wanna know how long this bearish market will be happening. I have been buying some tokens but it seems like that the bearish trend was still dominating the market. It seems like bitcoin is slowly recovering again from the bottom. So many new speculators are appearing right now and creating bunch of various prediction based on technical analysis but most of these predictions were fail.

I am putting 5% of my Monthly Income to invest in Bitcoin and the other 5% is for altcoin that I will choose.

this is the strategy i am doing now because I have limited income as an effect of pandemic still , and also all my bounty profits remains in my holding and none will be taken away even in emergency purposes lol.

and this is what we need now , to put our small money inside dumping prices.

In this market the slightest increase in bitcoin means a lot to almost all altcoins, but sadly the increase didn't last more than 3 days and after that it decreased slowly over a week.
whatever the shape of the market I will stay here to continue to enjoy the process that is happening in the market.

No one except the insiders know what season we're in. The only thing people know is about recession, but how that will play out in the market isn't certain to anyone. Overall, I am very bullish about the rest of the year.

The partial buy you mean is it to invest in what you can afford to lose or something else? Elaborate on what you mean by partial buy.

All altcoin falls with bitcoin without hesitation. The bear market we are observing today didn't start now. It has lasted for months already and nobody knows when it will end.
For the investors, the bear market does serve as an opportunity for them to fill up their portfolios with bitcoin or any other potential coin. Not the time to count losses, but rather the time to buy more bitcoin or altcoin

Partial buy means an effort to buy your crypto in the various level of price to avoid getting trapped into the same price level due to the bearish trend. People are using this as a strategy to decrease their chance to get a lose from buying crypto. it's caused by sometime you didn't even know how deeper the coin will be going. That will be giving you a lot of confusion to pick which level that can be considered as the best level to buy in.
It may go for yearly basis. You must use old pattern of crypto as a way to identify how long the bearish market will still remain in the market. No body knows but anyone is not anticipating the pump that can happen anytime with it. Sometime it can also become your lose since you didn't know how deep the price of token will be going on. Can you predict this?

Wow You're only 435-days late OP, were you living under a rock these past months ?

Bitcoin has reached and tested the bottom of 17k twice and it's now being traded at 40% higher then the ATL, i wouldn't exactly rush to call this the end of the bear market but the darkest days are certainly (hopefully) behind us now.

This bear market opens up opportunities for people who want to start investing in crypto. I also became more daring to invest in this bear market. for getting some coins for cheap. although the fear is still there. i.e. I am afraid this bear market will continue. but hope cures my fear. that is because we have an expectation that a bull market will definitely come after a bear market. so I will make regular purchases in this bear market and hope to make a profit when the bullrun market returns.

For your mind only, we can still taste that 17k region again because I heard a big exchange is about to release some BTC to the rightful owners, they might just decide to sell off.

some may decide to sell of but the rest may not do that as well. Those bitcoin will be sent to the creditors of MTgox as their reimbursement from the case that happened with mtgox. I hope that bitcoin will not taste below than 20k again or it may be a disaster for bitcoin and all of us.
As a trader it will give me a good opportunity to buy at the bottom but remember that needs years for crypto to recover and i didn't wanna see that happen.

It's true that right now a bear market is engulfing all cryptocurrencies, and it's a great time to pick some ALTs that you think will be great in the future and then buy them with what you've chosen. I'm sure it won't be long before the bear market will end in some time and the market will return to normal as usual. So use this very good moment for you to buy some ALT that you will choose.

It's been a long time ago since the bear market started, don’t you remember the price of bitcoin and etherum a year ago, most strong and popular coins crashed to half of their higher price, and with that a lot of tokens disappeared or crashed badly. For me i won’t buy yet till i see a nice recovery from BTC which gonna influence the rest of the market. We still on bearish market and nobody knows for how long, but so sure there will be a good and strong bullish coming sooner or later

Well the whole year seems to be a Bear market and yes this is going to climb back once again but not this time and not this year alone  lol.

I made a partial buy and still buying when the price stays lowering.

though i may consider buying or selling when the value change hands .

so let them happen and let us do it holding , buy bitcoin when there is a chance and sell when the price increases .

A few quarters already passed but yeah bearish market is still with us. Im feeling curious how long market will be so stable like that without any volatility. Bitcoin being pumped a bit and then bulltrap was coming and it;s going down again.
Im feeling if we will be stuck at this rate for 2 years later. Just wanna see how you guys feeling about this bearish market. No signal for bearish market to end very soon.
This is a long term bearish market.

I don't agree with you, this is not a right time for buying because the market is not stable only crashing, you can make money of this bear market if you know about future trading,  moreover this bear market will take more time for stablity, and we can buy if we have plan for a longterm holding 5 to 10 year i think so.

market have been bearing since the start of 2nd quarter so i believe that even before you posted this people here are already aware of the Bear and knows where to buy and sell, and also why will people need to be certain in occasions that they knew keeps coming every after Bull market?
so just let your way to stay buying or your way to keep  holding.


never buy in a a stable market because you'll never knew if this trend goes up or down.

i would not advice people to buy  altcoin cause doing bear so many will crash and funds will be lost use the experience of what happened to luna so when it comes to bear be selective of which coin to invest in , like you said is a time to be and accumulate is actually a good period for that , there have to be a balance once there is bull the bear will also be at the corner , make use of the bear very well don't keep prolonging your buying once you have the money invest ,hold bitcoin was once 5000 and later got to more than 60,000 so going through such data and research should keep you going even when the market is experiencing bear , so we should use our head in bear if you have before add more your portfolio cause definitely the rainy season will come which is the bull smiles season holders love so much and i also love such seasons cause it is a season of profits.

When the bitcoin price started dropping below $40k, I already thought that a bear market moment had started to emerge and this could happen quickly or slowly. If it happened quickly, many people would panic and not be prepared for its arrival so they could sell all their assets at a loss. But if it happens slowly, people won't notice it and will keep trying to make a profit. And it turns out that bear market events are sometimes going down fast and sometimes down slowly, which leaves some of us confused about what is really going on with the market. And when the price is below $30k, we realize that a bear market is here and some of us realize it too late.

Really think Bitcoin can bottom at $10k this bear market. Just start stacking and everything will be good  :)

Everyone who knows little bit about crypto and it's market. knows that we are in bear market. insider have nothing to do with this. and this bear market is gonna stay for a while maybe for 1, 2 years. because whatever going in the world. the pandamic and then the Russia Ukrain War. and then mainstream market and recession. and than floods and other natural disasters, all these things are affecting Cryptomarket and they'll take time to fix.

Affecting to the extent that maybe some people will not invest bitcoin for a while due to this crisis, but I believe this will not take long because for sure there are also good things to consider especially crypto is now getting some strong support on some big institution and might we can see a more wide adoption on it. And also for sure people will forget about all of those reason where it creates fear to them since once bitcoin get a good rally we might see a good price stability or it will continue to go up to $30k which I think still possible to happen.

if you really think that there is a bottoming at 10k USD then why need to stack now when we can clearly wait for that much lower price and a discounted value?
buy now or buy later as long as you can afford to lose and you can afford to wait longer.
buying is the best way to enlarge your future profit but there is a time allotment for this to clearly happen.

There's no doubt that bear markets can be scary, but the stock market has proven it will eventually bounce back.
If you change your perspective, focusing on potential gains rather than potential losses, a bear market can be an excellent opportunity to take a stock at a lower price.

Ye sits good time to buy BTC and other coins. I think ada is best for now at this rate as there is News of theirs hard fork which will happen soon. Ada is potential coin which is worth to invest in this bear market. Another coin is ATOm which is also down and POS best coins.

I still can't believe what happened to this day. I thought the bear market ended last August, in fact until September it is still continuing. But the opportunity to get a cheaper bitcoin price will be much more flexible.

according to what analysts say. that bitcoin is still going down. and I made a buy entry some time ago at several support points. and is now partially executed. The bear market this time is difficult to predict. and I hope the market can fully recover.

I think you are late to realize this but that's okay because at least most of the coins are still not recovering properly, You still have a chance to catch up. Partial buys are a nice strategy to use before or in the beginning of the bear where the price is still decaying slowly but I don't think so now as I feel the price is now rising. It would be better if you buy in bulk now.

Lastly btc dominance is getting weaker and it's slowly being replaced by eth or the altcoins but I think that won't become permanent. Btc is only getting a good timing and will soon reclaim everything that he owns. It's not wrong to have some alts with us but btc must be first before them.

It seems like your prediction was not true, the bottom was around 18k and there's no reason for bitcoin to go to even lower than 15k. I think this time bitcoin will be bouncing back again. It's surpassed 22k which mean bitcoin has more chance to the bullrun to come very soon. It's slowly going up again despite the fact that we have almost a year in the bearish market. So, there's no reason for bitcoin to go to the bottom again. It will be going up again to the 30k sub. We will see another big recovery to come very soon. It's just the matter of time.

That bear market is still ongoing. We got the best opportunity for buying all coins at their least price. I have bought in the dip. We have still an opportunity to buy at a low price. I hope I will get a good profit by this buying.

Yes, I am a greedy person, and I regret not selling it during the bull market, but now it's over and I can only wait hopefully next year there will be a better bull market, and what happened to me will I made a valuable lesson, so that in the future I do not experience a similar incident.

Greed is what makes us hold back from the decision to sell in a bull market. Next time you can get your capital back from the profits that the coin has made for you and leave the rest in the long term, we don't know what might happen after a year because the crypto market is very volatile, and investing in cryptocurrencies is not a safe investment So you have to HODL what you can lose and wait for bull season, just choose your high potential coins carefully because the bear market contains a lot of memes & shit coins. We now have in the bear market a great opportunity to buy coins at a good price without exaggeration, and I advise you to put only 10% of your capital in different promising coins.

Good advice, I support it. I myself believe that you can invest only free funds, and for a long term, several years. so as not to get upset every time the market falls, just invest what you can, do not count on short-term profit)

I think this trend could potentially continue so I hope that Bitcoin runs in the opposite
direction as the U.S stock market that would be nice because it doesn't it's not always correlated to that just keep that in mind you might think that it's that Bitcoin is always correlated to the U.S stock market that is not true it has gone opposite ways before but keep in mind that inflation is going to continue skyrocketing.

Bitcoin is going to love monetary inflation but you know the sad thing is

a lot of people are going to get hurt especially in the U.S and Western countries'

The main question still remain the same and it's about how long you try to hodl your money? I meant waiting for your portfolios to reach your target. I just wanna try to tell you about the truth is when you are aware about this during the bearish market people are always looking for additional ways other than holding their assets to get additional income. The bearish and bullish market always change the perception from people's mind.

For estimates regarding this bear market, maybe no one can say for sure how long this will happen, and this cannot be predicted. If you have already bought it, you should just keep it until the bull market really comes but it's all up to you, because you are the one who has the right to determine the tokens you have. Indeed, many people speculate about bear markets but no one can confirm the truth, because in the cryptocurrency world there are mysteries and question marks about this.

The bearish market is already here for a long time and yet some people can't still find a way to get through.

We already can assume what's the lowest point that Bitcoin price can reach but still we always keep talking about it's a bear trend.

Not because the bitcoin price is not doing some price increase, it does mean we are still in the bear market.

Some says it can last for a long time like 2 or 3 more years and the market will only experience a relief around the year 2025 or so while there are some who speculates that we will see a light during the last quarter of the year. It's only up to you if which side you will believe or much better if you will also have your own set of dates. For now there's nothing much we can do about our investments other than hodling it.

Selling it won't help but it will only give you more problems (losses) but there are investors whom I think doing that because they decided to take a break for a while and they will only come back once everything returns to normal again.

Yes, on the one hand the bear market provides an opportunity for us to buy at a discount and on the other hand the bear market makes some investors trapped by the decline in the value of their portfolio, but if you make a purchase during the bear period, be sure to make purchases gradually because this way This way we can take advantage of any price drops and also make sure that what we want to buy are projects that have strong fundamentals because usually they will be able to return to have better value when a bull market comes around.

We do not have to give up on trying to make a profit because this bear market will end soon. By this time, even if the price seems to be looking sideways, we can still buy low and sell high as we can see, the price always moves like that. And that is our opportunity to buy back bitcoin and sell it if we want. Otherwise, we can hold it until the price can surge higher from the current price. It will give us a bigger profit if we can hold until that time while we do not have to worry about price fluctuation. We can place an order and wait until it fills by itself.

about the bitcoin dominance? you are wrong because bitcoin dominates market even high from 2021 than today so you are hardly right about that.

but you are correct in telling that we need to Buy more now because it seems like we are going back to where we started late 2020 so this is the perfect time to accumulate more crypto specially Bitcoin other than altcoins lol.

if we are  bounding to HODL? yes it is always a best strategy to wait for the bear and buy .but if not then better to let yourself sit in small profit .
