It was December 17, 2017, when Bitcoin hit its all-time high, and nearly a month later on January 12, 2018, Ethereum peaked at $1,400 per crypto token. After that, it’s been two full years of a bloodbath, with sheer carnage across the entire crypto market. But just as we close in on the second full anniversary of when the bear market first began, the crypto market appears to finally be ready to rebound and go on an uptrend once again. Crypto Market Enters The Second Year of Bear Market Bitcoin’s meteoric rise and Ethereum’s ICO-fueled rally helped put cryptocurrencies and blockchain technology on the radar of the entire world. The once relatively unheard of technologies soon were being discussed as industry disrupters and a possible replacement for the dollar.

Bitcoin had a short-lived bear market rally offering investors in the first-ever cryptocurrency a sigh of relief, however, a new all-time high couldn’t be reached, and it later fell back into a downtrend it is still struggling to break out of.
