I'm not even sure whether this is a bad or a good thing right now but this is definitely unusual and I have never seen it before even though I have been in the crypto scene since 2014.
From what I can see the development (Lightning network etc.) is more active than it ever was, so shouldn't that give a little boost to the price at least?
bitcoin has always risen since it was first created, but now prices are falling and long periods of time have not shown good change, this does not mean a bad market but indeed the world is not good enough, especially after the Chinese vs USA trade war, this very influential on business people throughout the world, this also results in a sluggish bitcoin currency on the market, but things like this usually last not long, because all traders will rise from the fall.
