The crypto market in 2026 may experience typical cyclical fluctuations. Industry analysts believe that digital assets are currently in the early stage of a long-term growth curve, with the bottom range essentially confirmed. Based on this logic, the year may present a three-phase trend: at the beginning of the year, the market is expected to rise rapidly, attracting incremental capital; during the mid-year period, a significant correction is anticipated, during which many investors may misjudge the bear market as over; by the end of the year, a strong rebound may occur, completing the annual cycle. This pattern of initial rise, subsequent decline, and then recovery often creates the most attractive bottom-buying opportunities within a larger cycle.

The mid-year correction was fierce, and then a bunch of people will be crying out that the bear market is here again.

Start the year with a surge, cut the leeks in the middle of the year, and rebound again at the end of the year? Why does this script feel so familiar haha

The mid-year correction will definitely cause another round of losses for some people...

A rise at the beginning of the year, a crash in the middle, and a rebound at the end of the year. Honestly, it still depends on the macro environment.
Here comes the old routine again, claiming the bottom is confirmed every time. I don’t believe you for a second.
During the mid-term correction, can you really resist cutting? Anyway, I would definitely cut.
If this wave can really follow the script, buying at the bottom could lead to a surge, but the prerequisite is that the coin must really drop.
First rise, then suppression—sounds like an old story that’s been played out. Still, it all depends on real money.

That mid-year correction, let's see how many people get shaken out again.
Wait, has the bottom really been confirmed? Why do I still feel half skeptical?
The three-phase trend sounds pretty perfect, but I'm just afraid reality will throw a wrench in it.
If this wave can really follow the pattern, it would be great; the key is whether retail investors can hold until the end of the year.
The surge at the beginning of the year was obvious to everyone; the hard part is not getting cut off in the middle of the year.

It's the cycle theory again. I bet five dollars that during the mid-year correction, someone will cut their losses.
