It's really hard to compare on the previous cycle because of this one important factor,
a. we have reach new all time high pre-halving, March 2024
(2 months before the halving itself), at $73,000.
So that alone is a big factor to me, as we haven't seen this kind of pattern before. And that's why we might be in for a new pattern, it could be that a new all time high or the peak of this bull run might take a little longer.
A good point raised.
Only time will tell how this cycle will work out, however, as it was said, cycles become less volatile in nature, and there is a barrier to break for people - $100k and forward.
