PANews February 16 News, Matrixport released a daily analysis stating that a common observation in determining whether Bitcoin has entered a bear market is whether large declines occur more frequently within 30 days. During a bull market, drops of more than 20% within 30 days are relatively rare; whereas in a bear market, such declines tend to happen repeatedly. Meanwhile, market momentum had already weakened by mid-2025: looking at the 30-day rate of change (ROC), the upward peaks have been steadily declining, and buying momentum is also diminishing accordingly. Experienced crypto investors understand that bear markets are a natural and recurring part of the cycle, often creating conditions for the next recovery and upward movement. However, bear markets usually do not decline unilaterally all the way down; even within a larger downward trend, significant staged rebounds often occur. Therefore, investors should maintain discipline and continuously seek more cost-effective opportunities as market conditions change.
