How long will this deep last

[tabas]

Understanding Bitcoin is actually enough. The rest is patience and consistent buying investing with DCA is best. By buying more each year, you can multiply your money in Bitcoin within a few years by reaching the bull market. This requires patience and willpower. Just place a buy order and move on without overthinking it.
Focus on other things in your life; the ease with which Bitcoin works is incredible.

It's easier said than done but I am with you about being consistent in DCA. But it changes from every year that passes by because the price becomes more expensive. The little amount that we're purchasing right now will be big someday but, people shouldn't be discouraged when it happens because that's part of investing and holding bitcoin is a life changing decision. While the others complain about how expensive it is and if they have no money to buy, people from the other side of the world are looking for ways to source out their capital for DCAing.

Easier said than done, but if one can actually study and practise patience in the Bitcoin market, they can enjoy good profit. Some have the month to buy and hold, but they don’t have the mind to overpower the temptation that comes with bear season; each time it starts, they always feel like all their money is going to vanish, which leads them into selling even if the value is below what they bought it at.

The last two years of crypto price declines were expected because we saw a Bitcoin halving in 2024. We know that the price of Bitcoin increases in the year following the halving, but unlike 2021, we did not see a lot of altcoins in this cycle. However, we may have to wait another 18 months for a price increase. However, if we have already seen the lowest price of Bitcoin in this cycle, then in the next bull market, we can probably see the price of Bitcoin increase by 3 times the previous ATH.

Bitcoin reached $126k in 10 2025 and has been declining ever since. That means the bear market has only lasted a little over 8 month so far.

This bear market was predicted, but the problem is that many people dont want to believe it. They bought into the this time is different narrative, which is why so many were caught off guard by this drop.

We do not need to wait another 18 month because, based on previous cycles, bear market is already entering its final stage. Bitcoin will recover soon, but it will probably take much longer before it sets a new ATH.

Finally, I doubt Bitcoin will reach $350k in the next bull market.

There is some similarity in reality with the information you provided. We have crossed many ATHs in 2025 and the last one was $126k in October but the price is currently going down. It may not be right to assume that this year will only continue to fall. Maybe it will not cross $100k but it will not fall much lower than it is now. If Bitcoin starts preparing for a price increase in 2027, the year before the next halving, then it will not be surprising to see another ATH in the early part of next year.
