Actually if this goes like the last halving pump in late 2013, next year would be like 2015, not 2016. We would have another year and a few months of bear mkt.
this year already looks pretty similar to 2015 with the flat line of the price that has been lasting for months without being capable of going either below that bottom line or above the resistance. on top of it we have the same attitude from people like you expecting a long bear market which is always a good sign for the end of it.
Yeah and it's always better to expect the worse and prepare for it than look forward to a bull run that nobody knows when will come. The fluctuation right now isn't that high anyways so i guess we're neither under the bears or bulls.
