The reasons for the bear trend in the crypto market have been named! What is happening and why is everyone not in a bullish mood?!

The crypto market has once again found itself in the shadow of a bear trend — and this time the reasons are much deeper than just another 'bubble bursting.' Everyone who followed the market at the beginning of 2026 has already seen how #BTC fell below important levels, and investors are asking one question: what went wrong?

Here are the key factors of the decline that analysts are citing right now:

Strong selling pressure and broken support levels.

Bitcoin has broken important price supports — and this is not just a technical signal; it is a psychological factor that has intensified panic among holders. Many investors are currently 'underwater' — meaning they are trading below their entry price — and this increases the tendency to sell off.

Cyclical dynamics and changing sentiments.

The traditional crypto cycle has slowed down: the decline following the highs of 2025 is a classic sign of a bear market according to historical patterns.

'We are seeing not just a decline in prices — we are witnessing a correction of expectations. Volatility right now is not a bug, but a feature of the new market cycle!' — Anthony Scaramucci, founder of SkyBridge Capital.
