Bitcoin2026-08-21 04:57:13Doctor Profit Says Bitcoin Bear Market Is Over, Calls Current Phase the Early Stage of a Bull MarketOn Aug. 21, BlockBeats reported that trader Doctor Profit said Bitcoin’s recent move through multiple major resistance zones suggests the bear market has ended and the market is now entering the early stage of a bull market. He highlighted three levels to watch: $71,500, $78,000 and $82,000. He said a sustained break above $71,500, or a weekly close above that area, would be a key confirmation. A move through $78,000 would also need to be cleared, while a break above $82,000 would open more room for the rally. Doctor Profit also said one of the largest short liquidation events in Bitcoin history recently took place, and that some investors missed the move while waiting for a four-year cycle or an August pullback.960
Cardano2026-08-20 19:53:05Charles Hoskinson says crypto needs a new narrative to spark the next bull marketCardano founder Charles Hoskinson said on X that the crypto industry needs a new narrative to truly kick off the next bull market. In his view, the market currently lacks a breakthrough story strong enough to attract large waves of new users and fresh capital. Hoskinson argued that the next phase of growth should move past pure speculation and focus on how blockchain technology can solve real-world problems. He added that this kind of narrative could support more sustainable growth for the sector. Hoskinson also said the community and developers need to work together to build and promote that vision.

Coinbase2026-08-20 14:31:57Coinbase CEO says crypto may be on the eve of the next bull marketCoinbase Chief Executive Officer Brian Armstrong said he believes the market may be close to the start of another bull run. Speaking in an interview with CNBC on Aug. 20, Armstrong said it is 「very possible」 that the industry is now on the eve of the next bull market. He pointed to two factors he is watching. One is the Sept. 15 vote on the Clarity Act. The other is the pattern seen in prior Bitcoin halving cycles, under which October, November and December have typically been stronger months for Bitcoin. Armstrong did not provide a price target or further market forecast in the remarks cited by BlockBeats. His comments focused on the upcoming legislative vote and the seasonal pattern he said has appeared after past halvings.1030
Bitcoin2026-08-16 06:48:14Trader Killa says BTC reclaim above $69,500 could confirm a bull market turnCrypto trader Killa said Bitcoin has moved back above the 0.8 level on the Mayer Multiple after briefly falling below it, according to a BlockBeats report published on Aug. 16. He compared the move with 2022, when BTC also dipped under that threshold for a short period before recovering it. In Killa’s view, though, the more meaningful confirmation in 2022 came when Bitcoin reclaimed its 200-day moving average, after which the bull market began. He said Bitcoin’s 200-day moving average is currently around $69,500. Based on that framework, Killa argued that the next step is to wait for BTC to break back above and hold that level. If that happens, he said, the market could be regarded as having formally turned bullish.1030
Changpeng Zha2026-07-25 00:36:33CZ asks whether long-term investors should enter in a bull or bear marketTechub News reported that Binance founder Changpeng Zhao, widely known as CZ, posed a question to the crypto community on social media: should long-term investors enter the market during a bull market or a bear market? The post centers on market cycles and how investors choose their entry point. In the framing cited by the report, long-term participants often weigh two different approaches. One is accumulating positions in a bear market, when asset prices are lower. The other is joining during a bull market, when the upward trend is clearer. Each setting comes with a different risk-return profile and a different logic for entering the market. The item was published by Techub News and cited Cointelegraph as the source referenced in the brief.1380
Bitcoin2026-07-24 10:02:20Bitcoin Supply in Profit Rises to 57.5%, but Bull Market Confirmation Is Still PrematureBitcoin’s on-chain profit profile is improving, but the latest data still falls short of confirming that a new bull cycle has begun. According to CryptoQuant, Bitcoin’s Supply in Profit has climbed to 57.5%, up sharply from the June 30 low of 46.2% and now approaching 60%. The metric measures the share of BTC supply currently held above cost basis. Even so, historical cycle signals suggest that a bear market is usually considered over only when two conditions are met at the same time: the 30-day simple moving average of Long-Term Holder SOPR stays above 1 for several weeks without breaking down, and Bitcoin’s Supply in Profit remains above 64%. Analysts noted that this cycle has already seen one false breakout. From April 28 to June 1 this year, the average LTH-SOPR stayed above 1 for 35 straight days, while Supply in Profit briefly reached 67%, before the market pulled back again. At present, the long-term holder 30-day SMA has remained below 1 for more than 50 consecutive days, leaving a key risk signal in place.1840
