in 2019 the bull also hasn't arrived yet. although there was a sharp decline throughout 2018, but in 2019 there will be no further decline. although the crypto market increase has not been guaranteed.
Too early to feel confident about 2019. My inner feeling says that this year will be even worse. I have been around here for quite a while and I vividly remember what happened during 2014-15. What happening right now shows a remarkable similarity to that period. IMO, the bulls are not going to be active before 2020. That is when the next block reward halving is due.
