what’s your next step?

there have been talks of the start of the bearish cycle these days and i am one of those who swears that bitcoin can still rise up and reach over $100k and even reach a whole new ATH but as investors we need to be prepared for all kinds of situations

so if this is truly the start of the bearish cycle, what are your plans? do you plan to buy and take advantage of the low prices or do you plan on ignoring bitcoin until the next bullish cycle?

Every bear always gives us opportunity to regain more strength to fill back our banks, whenever the market is dip then another new opportunities comes for accumulations and when the market bounces back it gives additional profits above what we had before, so at this point it's better to get usdt ready for accumulation of more btc to cease that opportunity that is coming. But, currently I still have a strong doubt that market is not going dip to that extent we feels is bear run.

We are moving sideways, not down.
Just hodl and await the biggest ATH yet.

I am now watching the market and essentially talking to myself on what will be my next move, I am not ready to deal with the bear and I am still hoping it won't come on the first and second quarter of the year but we know that the market can be treachery anytime it wants to and individually we are powerless to stop its eventual coming. I am still weighing on things and maybe the clarity of the mind can come next week and I am really wishing that I would not be too late to make my decision matter. When the wind is shifting we know that there is something coming though we never dream something like it to be the bear.

Well most times in the case of a bearish circle I like to stay a little off altcoins. And if you're a bitcoin investor or holder I think the best you could actually do is buy more at the most suitable pullback you can actually tolerate. Currently we seem to be in a little bearish section and to make the most of it you should consider adding to your stash.

The only thing is sometimes it can be confusing to tell which price points you should consider buying at especially for those that prefer to go all in compared to those that make use of the DCA strategy.

I also believe that we are approaching a new bear phase of the market, however my strategy will not change, I will continue to make a monthly bitcoin accumulation plan regardless of market conditions

It is a good DCA strategy, continue to consistently execute your strategy and continue to do the necessary consolidation for the wallet to exist.
make your assets more and more and yes there will be more profits that you get later.

So just live this decline quite calmly without panic, because after a bear market or a great decline there will be an incredible rise, believe me.

you are right i also don’t think the market will go crashing down immediately however it is the best if we are prepared for anything so i guess it would be best if we started depositing our money to some usdt and be prepared to buy bitcoin immediately when the chance arises

I don't think we are going to crash.
And even it will happen - we can just buy the dip and hodl more.

Well, bear and bull cycle is part of the crypto industry and whether we like it or not we should prepare on any of those two if we want to take advantage of the market. I personally do not have plans right now since I don't have extra funds to add portions but if ever I will miss this opportunity then better luck next time for me or if I am able secure few dollars as an extra maybe I will try to do short term trades.

With the entry of the ETF and all the changes of the last two years, I think we will no longer have such significant "bullish" periods. At least not big swings to the upside in a short period. If we go back a bit, "bullish" has been going on for some time, because we have had a persistent uptrend for the past year and a half.
Also, there is more and more talk about the fact that countries will start to keep part of their reserves in Bitcoin, which means that there will be less and less of it available in the long-term forecast. This probably means a further increase in value.

What to do with your portfolio is a pretty personal thing. For example, if you're 60 years old, I don't know how much sense it makes to plan to liquidate Bitcoin in 20 years.

As a firm believer of the 4-year cycle, I still believe that we are still in the middle of the bull run despite of the negativities that's being spread online. Despite of the fact that we've been going downwards to sideways in the past couple of weeks of 2025, I still believe that at some point, we will see Bitcoin going up pushing its price towards new ATH.

We have a whole year of bull run, and a few weeks of sideways to downwards movement doesn't mean that we're in a bear market already. We are in a sideways movement at around the $89,000 - $109,000 for months already. If we see Bitcoin breaking that $89,000 support then my bias might change, but I'll still be bullish.

If the worst thing happens though and the bear market happens in the middle of this year, I might end up selling my coins at a much lower price than my expected one, or I might just hold it even more.

[target]

I'm also bullish that I might even miss the next bounce that signal sell before the lower low. So my question is at which price would you consider this dip is really going to a bear market price and down to the bottom by 2 years?

For my plan I guess I would just continue holding if I find out its too late. Or may sell at 80k and then hold the stablecoin for a longtime. That's just it and buy if the price really will go below 60k. I'll just continue my off line job too. accept that I missed the ATH.

Well, There is always some opportunities in each phase of the market whether the price is rising or falling. If at all this is true that were are in the early months of a bearish period, then the actions taken will be from a strategic viewpoint with regard to the long-term plan and future directions that have already been planned for. Some extend their positions at lower prices, others prefer to wait more calmly until directions get more confidently positive. Thus, there are no decisions that are right or wrong all the time because they all have to be made according to each circumstance. The strategy is that the key thing is to be fully aware of key directions and lay focus on risk management as well as not be manipulated by randomness that may lead to loss-making efforts instead of being guided by the right decision.

Why would you sell at 80k, I wonder?
