Venture capitalist Chris Burniske has stated that the current price correction in digital assets is a common occurrence in bull market cycles. As a former head of crypto at ARK Invest, Burniske compared the present situation to similar corrections seen in 2021, emphasizing that this downturn is merely a short-term pullback.
Corrections Similar to 2021
Burniske pointed out that in mid-2021, Bitcoin 
$92,038 fell by 56%, Ethereum 
$1,733 by 61%, and Solana 
$146 by 67%, with many other cryptocurrencies experiencing declines of 70-80%. He noted that such declines can be regarded as a natural part of market processes.
He emphasized that the current correction is an “intermediate correction” observed in all bull market cycles. Additionally, Raoul Pal, the CEO of Real Vision and a former Goldman Sachs executive, echoed similar sentiments.
Current Situation Assessment
As of now, Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Solana have retraced by 20%, 50%, and 51% from their peak levels, respectively. Burniske mentioned that similar declines occurred in 2017, followed by market recoveries.
Market experts have noted that recoveries and long-term upward trends typically begin after such temporary corrections. They frequently advise investors to focus less on short-term volatility and to develop long-term strategies.
There is a notable emphasis on evaluating current market movements in light of previous experiences. Experts recommend that investors maintain patience during this period and concentrate on fundamental analysis.
The past recoveries following price declines lend credence to the notion that the current market adjustment may also be temporary. Investors are encouraged to remain prepared for market fluctuations while keeping a long-term perspective.
