Bear market will end if a result of the ETF in this year good. All prices coins will increase and especially the price bitcoin that will exceed the highest price ever experienced bitcoin.
I agree, a lot will depend on the ruling of the SEC. While it seems unlikely the Bitcoin ETF is getting a pass, if it were to happen then no doubt that this will trigger a big upward movement. Sooner or later it will be approved anyway, the pressure from financial institutions is simply to big.
