Latest News in the Cryptocurrency and Investment World
Market overview
The question on everyone’s lips is, are we in a bear market, a dip or are we undergoing a correction along an upward trajectory? It is too early to say if we are in a bear market, the average length of a bear market is 289 days or 10 months, although the crypto winter lasted a few years.
