I just came across an interesting question about Bull Run — when will it truly start? Actually, Bull Run isn't a very complicated concept.
It's simply the phase where most investors are buying, demand exceeds supply, market confidence is at its peak, and prices are continuously rising. When you see prices trending upward rapidly, that could be a signal that investors are becoming optimistic — they believe prices will keep going up, and that’s the beginning of a bull run.
The interesting part is that there’s a positive feedback loop — as confidence increases, it attracts more people, prices go up even more, and the cycle continues. Because crypto prices are heavily influenced by public sentiment, many traders try to gauge the "market psychology" to determine when a bull run might occur.
So when will the bull run start? The answer isn’t as simple as a fixed number. Instead of just looking at a specific BTC price level, I believe a bull run is truly defined by a combination of factors — rising confidence, increased buying volume, and continuous price growth. Currently, BTC is at around 81K, and if it continues to break through resistance levels, the bull run can be more clearly confirmed.
The key is to understand that a bull run isn’t something you can predict with absolute certainty in advance. But if you notice signs — strong price increases, high confidence, and large trading volume — that’s when you’ve entered a bullish market.
