Bitcoin ($BTC) is causing a dilemma in the market with its recent movements. After rising above $82,000 last week, $BTC’s sharp drop to around $77,000 is pitting bull and bear supporters against each other.
Some analysts argue that $BTC’s recent rise is the start of a bull run, while others claim it’s a recovery from a bear market.
However, recent analysis reveals that Bitcoin has maintained an upward trend for 90 days and is exhibiting behavior different from past bear markets.

Renowned analyst Matthew Hyland argued in his analysis that the recent Bitcoin surge resembled a bull market surge rather than a bear market surge.
He justified this prediction by pointing to $BTC’s continued upward trend for the past 90 days, since it tested $60.
According to the analyst, Bitcoin is exhibiting behavior different from past bear markets, showing an upward trend for 90 days after falling below $60,000.
At this point, the analyst argues that Bitcoin has broken the record for the longest uptrend within a bear market in its history and is exhibiting behavior similar to a bull market rally.
The analyst also interprets $BTC’s successful break above the long-term resistance of $77,000 as a bullish signal.
“The recent Bitcoin rally looks more like a bull market rally than a bear market rally.”
Because, in the history of $BTC, there has never been a rally that trended upwards for 89 days during a bear market, never has there.
The breakout above long-term resistance has also signaled the start of a bull market rally on the previous three occasions.
Both of these characteristics are typical of a bull market rally, not a bear market rally.
Besides Matthew Hyland, analyst Filbfilb, also known by his pseudonym, assessed the current state of $BTC. Filbfilb argues that further upward momentum and overcoming of resistance are needed to determine whether the recent rise constitutes a bull market.
The analyst stated, “For Bitcoin to confirm a return to a bull market, it needs to break above the weekly supertrend resistance level of $88,000 to $90,000. The last two $BTC bear markets ended with a weekly increase of over 20% and a break above the weekly supertrend – currently around $88,000.”
