Bitcoin’s current market cycle has officially become the longest in the cryptocurrency’s history, surpassing all previous bull–bear phases tracked since 2011, according to data from Bitcoin Magazine Pro.
The chart shows that this cycle, beginning after the 2022 market bottom, has extended beyond 1,000 days since its low, outlasting the 2015–2018 and 2018–2022 periods. Unlike prior cycles that peaked and retraced sharply, Bitcoin has maintained a steady upward trajectory, consolidating around historic highs for an unusually long duration.

Analysis of the Extended Cycle
Analysts describe the ongoing structure as uncharted territory, suggesting Bitcoin’s maturity is lengthening its market cycles. Historically, euphoria-driven peaks arrived quickly after halving events, but the current phase appears to feature longer consolidation and slower volatility decay, traits consistent with greater institutional participation and ETF inflows.
Still, the report notes the caveat that the market may have already peaked, though on-chain data and macro sentiment indicate otherwise. As long as Bitcoin continues to hold above key support levels and liquidity remains stable, this extended cycle could mark a transformative stage in Bitcoin’s evolution, one defined by resilience rather than speculation.
