CryptoQuant CEO Ki Young Ju has declared that 
Bitcoin's bear market is over, predicting a period of bullish or sideways price action for the next 12 to 24 months. This assessment comes from a post on X on October 13, where Ju cited CryptoQuant's on-chain profitability framework as the basis for his analysis.
The call suggests a potential shift in market dynamics, with Bitcoin showing signs of recovery from its previous bearish trend. Ju's analysis indicates that the current market conditions are favorable for either sustained growth or a period of consolidation.
This prediction is corroborated by multiple outlets, with both CaptainAltcoin and Bitcoin Sistemi reporting on Ju's optimistic outlook. The consensus among these sources is that the bear market has ended, but they differ slightly in the details of Ju's reasoning, with CaptainAltcoin mentioning the 'PnL cyclical' aspect.
The broader market context shows a relatively stable total crypto market cap of $2.86 trillion, with Bitcoin currently trading at $83,031, up 0.69% in the last 24 hours. Despite a slight 7-day decline of 3.03%, Bitcoin's market cap stands at $1.67 trillion, reflecting its significant influence on the overall market.
The Fear & Greed index at 57 indicates a 'Greed' sentiment, suggesting that investors are becoming more confident. This positive sentiment, combined with Ju's prediction, could lead to increased market activity and potential capital inflows.
