Gate News bot, CryptoQuant analyst Crypto Dan posted an article comparing the bull market cycle of the crypto market: The bull market cycle in 2017 showed an overall upward trend and a short pullback cycle. In the mid-to-late stages of a bull market, there was a pullback that lasted about 7-8 months. The duration of this pullback is comparable to the 2024 pullback. The 2021 bull cycle experienced a long pullback at the beginning of the bull cycle, and the pandemic outbreak extended the pullback to about a year. Since then, the market has experienced a large rally, with smaller pullbacks until the end of the bull market. This exemplifies a typical pattern: pullbacks of large duration and magnitude are often followed by strong upswings. The beginning of the current cycle in 2024-2025 is similar to previous cycles, with brief pullbacks and rebounds. However, heading into 2024, Bitcoin has seen two strong rallies followed by a sharp pullback. During the adjustment periods from March to November 2024 and January to April 2025, altcoins underperformed, significantly dampening market sentiment. A brief strong rally followed, but the market still faced resistance. The current cycle exhibits a different behavior than previous cycles and requires a different interpretation. Unlike previous cycles, this cycle has seen repeated strong rebounds, followed by seemingly artificial market suppression.
