A bear market is a prolonged period of declining cryptocurrency prices across the market. It is typically marked by reduced investor confidence, lower trading volumes, and negative market sentiment. During a bear market, prices may trend downward for extended periods, often with intermittent short-term recoveries. Bear markets can be driven by factors such as macroeconomic pressure, regulatory uncertainty, or reduced network activity. Projects may experience slower growth and decreased capital inflows during these periods. Bear markets in crypto influence risk management, investment behavior, and long-term market cycles.
