Bitcoin<\/a> has now been in existence for over a decade, and the larger crypto market has now been through a few market cycles despite being a relatively new financial asset and emerging technology.<\/span><\/p>\n

It wasn\u2019t until Bitcoin\u2019s media-fueled meteoric rise and the ICO explosion that put crypto on the radars of the mainstream public during the 2017 bull market. With so many crypto investors being pulled into the 2017 crypto bubble, the majority of crypto investors in the market have never witnessed a market cycle transition from bear, to bull, and have never experienced the beginning stages of a bull market.<\/span><\/p>\n

Markets cycle the same way across all any asset class. After peak exuberance and hype comes a crash that brings on anger, despair, and depression. And as was the case with the crypto market as Bitcoin rallied out of lows to over 100% gains in the matter of two months<\/a>, as a bear market ends, investors are left in disbelief<\/a>, are hesitant to pull the trigger<\/a>, and still suffering from the crypto bear market version of post-traumatic stress disorder.<\/span><\/p>\n

Such is the case with the majority of crypto investors, as a new poll from leading exchange Binance<\/a> via their Twitter account<\/a>, where they polled users as to when they first entered the crypto market. The account cheekily pushes investors to \u201cbe honest,\u201d making light of the influx of retail investors who bought the top of the bubble and were forced to \u201chodl\u201d through a long, arduous bear market.<\/span><\/p>\n
