A cryptocurrency YouTuber I follow Louis Thomas posted a video titled "We're about to witness another Bitcoin bubble.." and upon watching it I can certainly see it happening based on the charts. The original tweet posted by Twitter user "truenomic" shows two charts examining previous bull runs and bear markets, as compared with the volume, looking at these charts it's clear that we could be starting to approach a new bull run. $BTC : I don't think it makes sense to deny the similarity of these cycles, and that we are at the foot of a new bubble. @woonomic @kenoshaking @ColeGarnerBTC @filbfilb pic.twitter.com/C6orV2If9a — Nik Jaremczuk (@truenomic) October 4, 2019 Pictured above is the chart that was posted in the original tweet, the red rectangles depict bear markets or areas of capitulation, and the yellow rectangles depict the area coming out of a bear market and into a phase of accumulation. In the chart you can see a correlati...
