Bitcoin bear markets are permanently ending (implied by 'bye-bye bears')
Incorrect
As of late August 2026, Bitcoin remains in a bear market that began in October 2025. While one analyst called the bear cycle 'over' based on a single technical indicator, multiple sources confirm Bitcoin is still trading below its 200-day moving average (230+ days below) and exhibits bear market characteristics. The bear market is ongoing, not ended.

A permanent bull run has begun (implied by 'permanent bull run')
Incorrect
Bitcoin's historical pattern shows recurring bear and bull cycles lasting approximately 4 years. Experts note 2026 may not fit traditional bull/bear classifications, but no credible analysis supports a 'permanent' bull run. Market cycles are cyclical by nature, and predicting permanence contradicts historical evidence and expert consensus.

The bear market has definitively ended
Misleading
One analyst (CryptoQuant CEO) declared the bear cycle 'over' in late August based on a positive Bull/Bear indicator reading. However, this conflicts with other technical indicators showing Bitcoin still in bear territory (trading 230+ days below 200-day MA). The bear market status remains contested and uncertain, not definitively resolved.
