Recently, there has been a lot of talk about when the crypto bull run will truly start. I analyzed several forecasts, and I think it's worth considering this more carefully.

Most analysts point to the first half of 2026 as the breakthrough moment. Q1 is definitely a period that could bring real upward momentum—especially if we improve liquidity and monetary conditions. But that's not all.

Raoul Pal and similarly thinking strategists believe that the peak of this cycle could occur sometime in the middle of the year. If current trends continue, June 2026 is a realistic scenario for maximum gains. That would give us about 12-18 months from Bitcoin's halving in April 2024—and history shows that this period is when the crypto bull market gains momentum.

What could drive this? Primarily further interest rate cuts, if they happen. Then regulatory clarity—that changes the game for institutions. Larger institutional money is always a game changer. And new narratives? Tokenization, AI projects—these are topics that could push real capital flows.

But wait, not every asset moves simultaneously. Bitcoin might lead the march, while altcoins fluctuate depending on liquidity and adoption. Some analysts see a scenario with a delayed bull run or prolonged consolidation—everything depends on how the market develops.

Currently, I see BTC at 77.80K with a 0.52% increase, SOL at 87.60 with a 1.70% gain, and ETH at 2.14K with a 0.42% rise. These movements suggest the market is already starting to build.

Summary? Many indicators suggest that the crypto bull run should really start from now until mid-2026, potentially reaching a peak around June. But volatility and fundamentals will determine how this actually unfolds. It's worth watching these movements carefully.
