Analysis: Market mirrors 2017, bull run may extend into Q2 2026

Real Vision CEO Raoul Pal said in a video released on June 19 that "it's spookily similar to 2017," referring to the current crypto cycle, according to Cointelegraph. He explained that he now expects the cycle to last longer than usual because his business cycle score, which he uses to assess the global economy, remains below 50 and typically takes time to rise. Pal added that the weakening U.S. dollar could extend the bull market into the second quarter (Q2) of 2026.
