I don't think that we are in bear market now! The price of Bitcoin has "tripled" from the lows. How can this be a Bear Market? Yes the alts have been thrashed in this cycle. That is what will happen when the market matures. None of the altcoins have completely proven their value so when the market grows high in value only proven projects will grow in value and that is healthy for the market too. So we are not in a bear market . The Bull market has already begun!
