Many people have lost a lot in 2018.They hope that the market environment will be better in 2019.But I think that if we want the market to recover, we need to wait for two years.
Your question is officially answered in the coinmarketcap and your thoughts were wrong and btc does not need 3 years like what people believed in the cycle of btc. This is much better that I expected that will only settle and get the volatility around $6k going up and and down but no, it just continue its way back to $9k.
