What is a “crypto winter” and a “crypto ice age” and why are they significant?

Episode 25 - What is a “crypto winter” and a “crypto ice age” and why are they significant?
I need to start off by saying this is not financial advice so if you are looking for that this show isn’t for you. The content of this podcast episode is for informational purposes only. The opinions expressed here are not meant to be taken as financial, investment, or any other advice.
Continuing from our previous episode crypto the last few months has seen a big beat down. The value of crypto went from $3 trillion back in November 2021 to just around $1.3 trillion since the crash in May. This caused huge losses to many investors and purchasers of crypto. With the crypto market not coming close to recovering many big name investors and crypto enthusiasts say we are heading for or are potentially in “crypto winter” and even more people are asking is this a crypto “ice age” we are heading into?
Crypto winter is a term used to explain a period of flat trading after a crypto price crash. It is a market condition when cryptocurrencies’ prices fall significantly below where they usually trend in a bull market or when the market rises and thrives.The cryptocurrency market goes through cycles similar to the stock market called bullish and bearish. Think of crypto winter as when crypto prices of coins go down and freeze there or stay stagnant for a shorter period of time with very little movement. The length of time of crypto winter could be thought of as a season, usually 6 months to a year but can sometimes last even longer. And causes of a crypto winter vary.
