Bull Market

What is Bull Market?

A bull market is a sustained period of rising prices and widespread investor optimism. It is the opposite of a bear market and is often driven by positive news, adoption, and excitement.

How does Bull Market work?

1. Confidence grows as prices break through previous resistance levels.
2. "FOMO" (Fear Of Missing Out) drives retail investors to buy, pushing prices higher.
3. Institutional investment and media coverage accelerate the upward trend.
4. New projects and "Initial Coin Offerings" (ICOs) launch frequently to capture capital.
5. The market eventually reaches a peak of euphoria before corrected or entering a bear cycle.

Why does Bull Market matter?
