This chart provides a comparison of the current price of BTC to exactly one year ago on the same day, offering insights into the duration and severity of bear markets. In recent news, BTC has achieved a significant milestone as it recorded its first day of year-over-year gains after a prolonged period of losses.
This positive development comes after enduring the LUNA crash, which saw prices plummet below $25,000. Unfortunately, the crypto market remained in the red for a staggering 490 days, making it the longest bear market in BTC’s history.
Comparatively, even during the percentage-wise worst bear market in 2015, BTC remained below this threshold for only 386 days. Therefore, the current bear market has surpassed the previous one by nearly 100 days, signifying the severity of the recent downturn.

Multiple statistics support the claim that this bear market ranks among the worst in crypto history. It is a testament to the resilience and determination of crypto investors who weathered the storm for an extended period.
As the crypto market continues to recover and regain stability, investors can take pride in surviving this arduous journey. Congratulations are in order for all those who remained steadfast throughout this nightmarish period. The lessons learned and the resilience gained will undoubtedly shape the future of the crypto industry.
