Although Bitcoin has seen a recent recovery, the sharp declines in October and November have revived talk of a bear market and a crypto winter.
While some analysts suggest the bear market has begun and declines may continue, the prevailing view in the market is that the bull market will continue.
At this point, the latest assessment came from US banking giant JPMorgan.
JPMorgan said it’s too early to declare a crypto winter and that despite recent market downturns, a rise in cryptocurrencies is still possible.
Analysts, noting that the upside potential in Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies still continues, described the correction as short-term and stated that the likelihood of a crypto winter is low.
The report stated that Bitcoin closed November down 9% compared to January, meaning that BTC recorded a negative annual return for the first time since May 2023.
JPMorgan also added that crypto prices surged rapidly shortly after President Donald Trump’s re-election, which exacerbated the correction.
However, according to the bank, even though the crypto market capitalization has decreased by 20% or more and trading volume has slowed, stablecoin trading volume has increased for 17 consecutive months, demonstrating that the market base remains solid.
JPMorgan maintained a positive outlook on the market, concluding that the recent correction did not signify a structural collapse.
JPMorgan is not alone in this prediction. Other major institutions have expressed similar views. Jeffrey Kendrick, head of digital assets at Standard Chartered, also stated that the current cycle is different from the past, suggesting that crypto winters may be a thing of the past.
