Comparing the current market movement to that of 2017, it's kind of synonymous and a pointer to the start of bull run. Although some parameters differs and will have impact on this current one (if so) which might limit the longetivity and price impact and people might be carried away till the reverse begins to happen.
Please share your views if this is the bull run we are waiting for and how long should we expect it to last?
Yes, people are comparing 2020 to 2016, because of its many coincidences: the US presidential election, the bitcoin halving. And it looks like people are waiting for a 2021 year to explode like 2017. However, the situation has changed a lot now, as the number of crypto users has increased a lot compared to 4 years ago, and if you want a bull run, it would require a huge amount of money to flow into the market, as the current market size is so large.
