Is this December actually playing out like the past December? Cos right now it looks like this December is a black one lol 😂 things are going side ways and all those crypto chillers on YouTube aren't even catching the trend of what's going on, so what's your own opinions?

You will be disappointed if you keep relying on YouTubers for crypto investment, many of them are paid to shill a particular token and most times their prediction always fails, it's better to find your own way to avoid getting rekt in crypto space cos no one can really predict the market 100% it's all predictions

not all the situation is the same mate wherein it depends. and yeah maybe this year month of December isn't not good because of some reason, but for sure this will not last as always.  :D so we should understand and stay away to prevent losses instead because that's what it' is.. But if you know how to day trade perhaps much better to gain quick profits. I am actually doing intraday using different coin in the market every day and so far this month even it's bearish there's still some opportunities to be honest especially when it comes new projects.. So if you have skills also must try..

There is so much bad news combined with fear and panics. So many big things happened and crypto can't resist it. Bitcoin was also getting a very bad trend at this moment. I see that the price movement is not usual right now. Some tokens were dumped so hard without any reason and people were converting all of their money into stable coin to prevent the dump to the market.

It's not for bitcoin but it's yes for whole of altcoins market. You can see that bitcoin gets less than 15% dump while whole of crypto market especially for mateverse tokens were dumping so hard.  Stop to follow those youtubers. They were getting paid to manipulate their viewers

The crypto market is weird in its ultimate sense where the price won't stay for too long rather it goes up and down frequently. Those people who have been in this market for a while, know exactly what's going on and they just simply relax and don't really care about it whether the price is on a roller coaster this past few days. Looks like we will not accomplish any new ATH for the top 10 cryptocurrencies in the crypto market this month rather the price will be unpredictable if it's able to hold its current position or not. If you are a heavy investor, you should know that you need to take a closer look at when to pull back your investment.

This month is really wierd. A few weeks ago I thought we would see a small end of year rally just before Christmas. Politicians kept saying that the covid pandemic is not so bad anymore, many people are vaccinated and we don't need another lockdown. So economy wise this year looked better than last year. But now with the new covid mutation I am not sure anymore. It sounds like another doomsday scenario and maybe we are exactly where we were last year.

I think some whales are faking out the bear market. Yes this is to shaken some of those investors and traders and once they caught them, the real bull run begins. Only my opinion, cause there is nothing much reason to avoid adoption. Well btc is the only indicator of what could happened. Like if its down everything's goes down. But once the whales decide to pump it. The market will be alive again.

You should just respect the market. The market has been very bullish with many fire works. Nothing goes up forever as long as we are still on earth. A reasonable correction is needed. You should have been taking profit all along and not leave all your fund in the volatile market.

Its look like some bad experience always in December .I have seen most of the time on December we got a bearish momentum with huge selling pressure .Its may be something happen for the upcoming new year .People are always wanna spend some more for the new years and different event .Its look like market are surviving now at the moment hopefully it will be corrected soon we can see a positive trend on the nest year .On the other hand i think its a good chance for us as well to get some more coin on our portfolio in low price you its a chance for always when you get it on the dip .Hopefully we will get more strong uptrend in the new year of 2022.

I completely agree with this opinion. Never rely on someone else's opinion. Do your own analysis. And trust your intuition. With the help of all kinds of influencers and other types of influencers, there is a pumping. There are many examples.

You are right mate, dont stand or stick on prediction of someone you see online, those prediction so many of them are fake, following the prediction of YouTube channel might leads into trouble, exactly what you portray here, no prediction of cryptocurrency industry can be hundred percent (%100) trust worthy, you know people like to follow negative side unless they adventure into problem they will pick correction. Market is bad actually and before it became bad to this extent people made profit, so is very obvious that it can retrace back anytime, because i don't believe on prediction wether perfect prediction or not.

I have gotten so used to seeing Alt-investments not go anywhere that nothing matters anymore. I just try to stick to stacking Bitcoin at the forum and try and have a good time in the overall community on Twitter. In this space, if you care about money, it'll screw up your mental state. I mean yeah, if you have the guts to put everything on risk and engage in massive wallet farming, discord farming then you can care about money.

Otherwise, just float along and buy whatever catches your fancy as a community. A lot of them die out but some continue to give hope. A lot of hopeful ones become stablecoins that only lose value in a prolonged crypto winter, the kind we haven't seen yet in this cycle.

Trusting shillers, influencers is just the easiest way to make a fool out of yourself. Just simply take profits into BTC whenever you can and be chill rest of the time. It'll keep going up and down and teach you a thing or two about investing, about scammers, about communities and about people in general.

The month of December is just starting, let's wait until the end of this month and the year comes. There's still a lot of things that can happen for the remaining weeks of this year. I'm optimistic about it and if there's something that makes you think negatively about it, just don't look at the charts and keep doing what you've started and that is to accumulate as many cryptos as you can. Well, those cryptos that really has the great value for you to hold with.

Those who are easily beaten by their emotions are the ones who will loss their money and those who will just remain calm and patient are the ones who will survive to this market.
TBH, many surprised including me with how the market is moving at the start of the month. When many are thinking and hoping that December will be a bull month and the market will rise even more, the opposite happened and TBH this might be a start of the bear market if you will ask me.

What will happen next week will be crucial. If this situation will continue until next one to two weeks then we might enter 2022 with a bloody market or bear market but if we will see a perfect bounce at the psychological resistance at around $50,000-$52,000 then we might see a continuation towards the upwards.

it looks like purge of crypto posers. a holder will sell at loss so they could buy their ham for xmas.

this month is not what we expect. its the continuation  of november dump.

In my opinion, so far, what has happened in the market is that it is natural to move out of the increase that has occurred over the past months. If you feel late because you didn't take too much profit during yesterday's rally, then now you have the opportunity to hold more coins at a low price. No need to worry, the market is always like this. There will be ups and downs during bulls and bears.

Is too early to decide though if this December is actually going to be black as you connote it but I could remember well this time last year most coin is green by now.

wierd it's not from crypto I think but all stock market too ,the scenario you mean makes my bones tremble ! For a long time crypto market has been difficult to predict or control and which is natural ,we'll see what the end of the month will be like hopefully it gets better in cypto market ! I'm more worried about the new variant that has everyone cornered real issue

I think most December used to be like this. We used to say it were Christmas sell off. It's much more than that this year but this time of year, it's always has been a selling of time and it continues to Chinese new year in late January or early February. But there are other things like new corona variant and fiat based economics to be considered.

It's still early December, so there's always a lot of surprises and unexpected possibilities. Facing the snow season and welcoming Christmas there will be gift shopping from Santa Claus. It is possible that the increase will be in the evening before the prize distribution. Lol

We have nothing to worry about, the market will recover in the near future. We are sure to get a special gift.  ;D

Maybe this is when expectations don't match reality :D
This is the reason we should not fully believe the words of others who try to speculate because something like this will definitely happen and indeed now is one of them.
apart from that, I don't think there's anything strange about something like this because indeed when we see 2020 it's almost the same

I think that this december is special because of the circumstances that have nothign to do with crypto but the world in general i think one major factor is the fear of the omikron covid variant, that is spreading and that also made the traditional stock markets drop in the last few days. Then we have this topic with the real estate company evergrande in China that seem to have trouble again and that may be go bankrupt which would cause a pretty big upset in the whole financial sector. Sadly the crypto market always reacts even more drastically then the traditional markets and my portfolio also went down at least 20% yesterday. I hope the market stabilizes now.

I think you must know the nature of the Cripto market.
In general, the decline in the value of cryptocurrency is influenced by the market mechanism.
Unfortunately the Cryptocurrency market has a fairly high volatility or change level, so it is very fluctuating. If many people want the currency and the value is not too much, the value will also increase.

People making sure to have money this season. I also withdraw some to prepare for holiday as the market keeps on declining. Though I will also plan to buy some when it shows some sign of recovery. We just need to make sure we have cash on hand to prepare for the virus or holiday. As well find ways to but at dip.

Exactly, presently it looks like market is recovering but it looks like bull trap to me, things end up working out differently this time around so I ended up taking profits but also let's not forget that December isn't over yet, things can still turn out differently

I dont know what to call December but my holding within this month has been a total lost which I don't even know when it will bounce back.
I think the major heartbreak of this dump are the Altcoins, Bitcoin suffer though but it seems to have stabilize. Altcoins are moving in a way I don't understand, they are bleeding because investors no look ngwr have confidence and if bitcoin should further drop, it's not going to be loss but a huge disaster.

We should not be concluding yet the December just began and let's still watch the market and see if the month would end in a bear move. YouTubers are no guarantee for investment signals I think getting a good foundation on how to do the analysis your self will save you from more drastic move from the market trend. Let's keep watching to see how December ends

December this year is very calm, a correction is expected, there is no endless growth, no trend for the arrival of bears is yet visible, the walls are too strong for the main points. If you look at this stability, it showed that no one is ready to buy more expensive, and not ready to sell cheaper, the result of someone decided to shake the game, to re-buy at lower positions and push the hamsters to the abyss.

This is something which whales wants us to think and they are successful in crashing the market temporarily and now they would have already shopped enough crypto to make a good profit when market stabilizes, we need to think from broader view and I don't see any news apart from usual opposition and banning threat from certain government and whales have just used these news as leverage to play with market. Don't blindly trust any youtubers.

I would say that is the worst thing you could have done. If you get out when it is bottoming out (it could go even lower, but that doesn't change the point), and buying when it is recovering, that means you are losing money. If you needed the money and you cashed out because of that, then it makes sense.

There is no point on making a huge debt when you already have crypto to pay for it, I usually don't cash out and make a debt but that's me and I am doing something wrong, I am aware of it, this is why I understand people who pay their bills with crypto profits and that's fine. However, if you are not doing anything with that money, and just waiting for it to recover? Then it is certainly a bad move and I would suggest that you should try to stay away from it as much as possible, you should buy at the bottom and not sell, that's how you make a profit.

You don't expect YouTube paid shillers to tell you how the market is going to dip, most of them lack sincerity. The truth is that year 2021 has been an incredibly bullish year so what is happening this December should not be a surprise.
Imagine many Altcoins with marketcaps that doesn't reflect reality since they have no product to back it up, so a correction is long overdue.

The truth is that no one has a clear picture or idea of where the market is going to end up next? By this time last year, market was booming upwards while making new highs even though it was much lower than it is today. People were expecting a similar move this year - upward to $80K - $100K price range but this time, it's looking all different and funny thing is that the influencers don't have a clue. Won't blame them. Influencers are glorified shillers.

You shouldn’t believe to all the info you get from YouTube. They'll say whatever only to get their thousands of likes and views. The beginning of December was really nervous, especially if to take to account how all the market dumped after several bad news about omicron (new covid strain), cyberhackers (that get access to Defi-platform BadgerDAO and hacked 2100BTC and 151ETH), mining in USA (that they also like China are worried about harmful effect of mining on ecology) and the volatility of the global stock markets (decline of some shares). However despite such dramatical beginning of December some analysts continue to forecast new all-time highs before the end of 2021. Now market is slowly recovering, so all is possible. To understand situation you need to monitor news and situations on stock markets every time then you wouldn’t miss right moments to take part in these crypto roller coasters.

We cannot really expect that things always happen in the same exact way at the same exact time, what is happening is that many people that went through the past crash are taking precautions, this means that at the first sight of problems people begin to sell their coins thinking that is finally the movement that is going to end this bull run, this is making quite difficult for bitcoin and the rest of the coins to go up in value, however if the price remains at the current levels and there is no crash this will create confidence among investors about a crash not happening as soon as they expected.

and as we speak, we are more than 50k level again. so one can't really know what will happen next. but with those youtubers, expect that they will always present a clickbait on their channel, that's their job. to gain more views. and so they sometimes resort to spreading false info or info without basis at all.
stick to the facts happening around crypto market. read news and updates. be informed.
don't follow the fud, or suggested alts to buy. do your own research and learn the background of each project before spending your hard-earned money.

December is like the other months before.
The ups and down in crypto are still the same. Although we see the up and down happen many times in the last Q3-Q4, the crypto market still moving on the right track.
As long as you can stay calm down and not panic, you will see something that can be your benefit to use every moment at the crypto market and who knows, you can also make a profit by using the moment.
If you do not just follow those crypto chillers on Youtube and still search for more info and always analyze before you decide, you will not get lost because of their information as they only want to search for their benefits from their audience.
So it is better to analyze to find out what we need to do.

You're right, I'm surprised too. It looks like December is the crypto curse :) . We always have bad things at the end of the year. Now we see him again. And if we learn from previous history we will go back up in Q2. I hope Q2 can replace our losses this month.

Meh. I won't be surprised if it ended up to be like the year 2017, before Bitcoin plummeted. Holidays are coming, so people are expected to get their profits at these times causing many to sell as well. Just take their coins, not by stealing lol, by buying their sold coins.
You know what they say as always - "Buy the dip"

Do your own research to get good information, some youtubers provide analysis based on the market situation and I never believe it, because I always see the market situation from many points of view.
December is always like this? I don't think so because if the situation is the same as in December 2017, a bear market will occur, but the fact is crypto technology is developing and the number of users will increase because the covid 19 outbreak is still not over.

The market will go in a direction that TinTok and Youtube bloggers don't expect it to go. newbies will quickly be thrown out of the market and they will become disillusioned with the market. This is not a casino, this is not about the number of likes and views, this is about understanding the market, how it works and what laws it obeys.

December was repeat past year and this month was bloody as last year so I am not surprise at all hence holidays are coming and people are cashing out to prepare for budget during holidays but it ain't gonna shake up the crypto world for that because it will recover soon and next year will be the start of it.

Even though this is a disaster for almost all investors and all traders, on the bright side, this is a gift that we should be grateful for. with this at least we can increase the assets we have.
and actually things like this are quite good when indeed the bitcoin which is the benchmark has reached a new ATH then there is definitely a correction that must be done so that their prices become balanced.

From my observation OP, I think the market, as it's today in this month of December, is that it's trying to imitate the past records of other post Bitcoin halving years by dipping at a time like this. There is nothing unusual or black about what's happening now. It's normal and nothing unusual about it. This is a festive period and a lot of investors like to take out profit for necessities or satisfaction, causing price to crash.

What do you mean by walllet and discord farming? Could you kindly explain this.

Big investors already know December is the month that traders have been waiting for, small investments, so don't expect December to be a strange thing to happen to crypto from 2021 onwards.

The pope will play crypto on the moon that no one ever thought, all fooled.

the strategy of equating last month with the current month is no longer valid. the price of a coin does not move based on the month, but based on the basic movement of the market and I think if December now is not the same as December last year it is not strange because I think the increase or decrease in coins can occur at any time.

Don't be too excited with current market recovery, I believe that next year will be worst for crypto unless Omicron Covid vanished into thin air, the best thing now is to watch market chart closely and take profits when available

stop for a moment to play crypto such as buying and selling or transactions..
take a break when the new year will come..and that's one of my ways, to be more secure with the assets that I have like safe in terms of loss..
.it all has happened at the end of every year in a very sharp decline in prices.

Can Omicron Covid be so much better than Bitcoin that you adore it now? I am never even afraid of the decline that will occur in the market because in general I prefer to buy during a correction and sell when the market is completely recovering within a certain time.

Its not all about a single month,No doubt mostly experienced that month of December good for BTC and all crypto but it is not necessary that every time decmeber become good.It is also true events affect the market and this month we have Chrismats and also we have chines new year in the month of feburary and it also have impact on the market.If you are planning for investment do proper research and buy low cap coins before the event happen and if gain reasonable profit then cashout otheerwise long run HODL is also great option.

Not all have season have the same patterns specially in Cryptocurrency. We don't know when will fud will come out and bad news will follow. It just so happen that this december is bloody compared to the past ones. But I think there's still time to pump. The market is in accumulation period and could potentially pump in the next few days.

The truth is not that it is a strange or weird December, but if it must be noted that it is a December where many were waiting for Bitcoin to begin to rise to $ 100ky although it is not a crazy thought, or out of place, it is very possible , but you have to understand that many times the whales tend to make the opposite movement to what the crowd thinks, and this tends to out of control people who look for or expect the bullish trend of BTC, this is something that can happen in this December or not , the panorama may be the opposite, I think that is why they say that it is a strange December. The market is like that, it is unpredictable.

I see that this december is obviously red. Personally I don't care about this as I am a long-term investor and when it is a dip, I will buy. One thing that I really don't like is that some platforms where I do yield farming also experience user churn so their native tokens are falling so my pairs native token-another coin are in drawdown, but I hope that they will recover then.

Looking at the cryptocurrency journey this year, 2021 really deserves to be called the year of the Bull run. Entering December, The movement of cryptocurrency assets has slightly decreased. This decline is a crypto assets lowest point when compared to the last two months (since September 2021).
Should be in this condition, investors should take advantage of the bearish moment according to the risk capabilities they have. This moment is a (discount) to buy crypto assets at a lower price.

You are right mate we all suffering in this December it's weird case happening even many analyses are also having wrong predictions but still we have nearly 20 days and many ups and downs can happen because it's all about crypto which has volatile nature and any positive news can bring green sentiments very quickly. I was buying few coins because I was also having this view that we will have very good run in December but until now it's not happening.
Bitcoin price is also on decline which was supposed to be on good run even few were predicting that we will touch magic figure $100K but right now we are on losing ground of $50K, but it's not going to end because we will be good in near future.

investment, not only believe on expert, or your close friend, sometime you need to believe on your feel. how you feel about spend money on this project or coin, feel about buy or sell a thing, make you great or just flat.
no need to attract with other thing, they are a thing that make people frustrate and make mistake. just believe with what you have now.

this is one of the mistakes that can be said often happens, they always believe that the projects run and invested by other people are good, without knowing what projects and what the background of the project is they immediately invest.
it doesn't matter if the project is really good, what if it's the other way around.
you will only get regrets from the time wasted and your finances are just lost due to trusting others too much

One doesn't go every December. Even after that, some samples of the previous year can be seen again. The crypto market is bad again whenever it gets better. This is especially the case in December. But I think this time is much better than the previous time.

Yes, because there are several supporting factors why this month crypto is not as bad as last year because of the metaverse and NFT issues that make crypto's existence even stronger. Many people have put their hopes in blockchain technology developers and unlike 4 years ago the market to be a crypto winter which is became bearish time. But this year im sure crypto can be survive and pump again. What we must do wait and see the market

Every December people loves go spend their money and usually the market corrects during these time and yes it happened, maybe some are just spending their money instead of paying huge taxes by next year, so this normal for me. What you can do right now is to keep on buying, we know Bitcoin will recover, so buy now.

Yes, every year we'll be experiencing similar pattern of market correction causing small decline in the price. Further the same gets growing by the start of the new year. Last year during the month of November the price was $9000+ and it gradually declined and reached $7000 by December. Once again started to bounce from January crossing $8000. Maybe the same kind at the present market price can happen this time.

Because we didn't anticipated that a new variant of covid-19 will be discovered. Omicron really affected crypto market and the rest of the financial instrument across the globe. It's just sad because we can say that December is really like very friendly, even during the bear market of 2018 and 2019, I remember that we have a good spike during this month. Unlike today that we've never seen an increased although it is really trying, at least bitcoin getting over the hump of $50k but it's a big resistance wall right now.

All the cooling and falling are for the purpose of getting those who can't hold on to get out of the car, and those who get in the car can get the bargaining chip with the least. This game rule has not changed since ancient times.

Crypto market is really unpredictable so be used to it. Dont expect history will repeat itself on the same month because its not going to be accurate.

On the other side, many investors are bullish that we might reach a $100k BTC price before this year end but I dont think it will happen this month. As we can see the price is moving sideways and there's no consistent increase.

Thus its better to go with the flow, forget the things that can affect you to hold and look forward for the time the market will become bullish again.

The current situation is normal, crypto has always been associated with pumps and dumps, but some investors are starting to understand how they can take advantage of the current situation.
crypto technologies and ideas like metaverse and web 3.0 are constantly being developed, this can push the coin price higher and reach your desired price target if you look at some past years experience.

It has revealed one thing, those shills on YT never had any idea of what actually happened in the market, in fact nobody does, it is a market where hype and trends seem to call the shots. So about time you unsubscribed to those "influencers" and all because they are only hollow vessels.

Truely this December has been different from the last few in crypto. I would assume the dump last week to be the reason to start this. Once a dump and correction happens the market may be a bit confused and go sideways. From there both up and down can happen depending on upcoming news, one of which is the Indian parliament deciding on crypto in India, there will be a bill passing.

Possibly the crazy memecoins that were making rounds have died out a bit too, so less movement coming from them. I got buy and sell orders on bitcoin at low and high points, suggest you do the same too. Either way it moves, you will have something to start with.

Things are very cozy right now. From past experience, we saw the market usually take correction in dec after 14 Dec. But this time it happens so early but the market is still confused about which side it will go on. The market is more matured now and people don't want to fall into bears trap. As long as the market won't decide its trend it will be wise to stay still and wait.

In the greed and fear index, it's in extreme fear. That means people are fearing about market bear trend and they sell off to prevent further losses. So I think it's a buy signal for us. Because whales always do the opposite of market sentiments.

I still believe the market will get better and return to bullish , the price of bitcoin shows a positive sign yesterday before another correction ensued today, in the previous December price had not really dumped like this year, be as it may it doesn't take much time before a bullish  price turn around will be trigger, even with the likelihood of some hodlers exchanging their coins to fiat to celebrate christmas I don't think it consequence will have any major impact on the price of bitcoin, thus there is no cause for alarm.

I don't think there's anything strange about crypto, it's just that the price of coins that don't last long sometimes goes up and down which we can't predict
If we want to be big investors, then we should be able to learn more about investing and have a lot of patience and also we shouldn't just trust YouTubers or any issue which is not good for the crypto world.

Yes, I think December is a holiday month for our Whales :D. If every month we have to go up then there is no time to buy. It's like a discount on Christmas Day. I am very happy because there are many discounts from my favorite coins in December. I'm sure it's the right time to buy.

Well, we can say that is the beauty of the cryptocurrency market. It is not very predictable, even when you think you know, a piece of single news from the right person/source can sway the market in the other direction but at the end of the day, we can confidently say that regardless of what happens, downward or sideways, the market will return when its time.

not only for the whales but to all of us , its the most special time of the year so people could sell thier coins no wonder why the price can go sideways every decemeber .


lawl yeah you got a point there 😂

The two belief every December.

1. Whales cashing out for holidays.

2. Start of the bull run.

Both of them possess the negative and positive thoughts that we have. In this case, it's the #1 that everybody thinks.

Seems this month a cold-weather came to the crypto platform, if you have the capacity to fill your bags with your favorite token it is now the right time to take action, but somehow to another crypto user that are waiting for a perfect time to sell then today is definitely not a good time for that. If you can still hold it for a quite long term it is better to hold for now but if there's already a need to sell then it's up to you, cut loss or stop loss or hold is just a matter of self-decision.

Or a continuation of Black Friday sales.

This December is different indeed. Usually last month of the year was a "green" month for all cryptocurrency. However this time tradition is broken. Even though trading never stops, I think we wont see difference in prices. January will run away quickly also. Dont really know how long the drop or stagnation will continue, but definitely we wont seek $100k by the end of this year.

I still believe that this is a time of transition. Believe it or not, this December will have a lot of surprises. whether it's good or bad, this will surely make the future of the crypto market even more excited. I saw a scheme that was quite extreme, fell and quickly got up. maybe it will be like in Q2 this year. where bitcoin stopped rising and fell by almost half, but surprisingly in Q3 bitcoin rose again and would eventually break ATH, although not that big but it was enough to make people believe that bitcoin is still valuable. and now I see the scheme will happen in the near future.

In my opinion, nothing strange is happening. The cryptocurrency market is still in an uptrend, and what we are seeing now is simply a correction. I think everyone is surprised that they expected big gains before the end of the year, and this is not happening. In my opinion, it is nothing bad, we will just wait a little longer for the increases.

Crypto assets showing a different strength from stocks towards the end of 2021 could signal digital assets will again have a superior performance in 2022.
Bitcoin is on its way to $100,000.

As time goes by, it is very visible for this december that everything is starting to decline..but it is different from last year,,a very visible decline is far from predictions and a lot of people are losing money,,but for this year, it can be seen from the number of altcoin projects such as nft or doge maybe. wouldn't have happened last year..

Always expect the unexpected in crypto market. We cannot really predict that this December will follow the same cycle as the previous one.
Also, there is a lot of FUD in the community from past few weeks which has lead to a decline in most of the cryptocurrencies charts.
Right now we might be facing a correction but December is still not over. There's still half a month left which is more than enough to get some good pump in the market.
Even in there is no pump in the current month doesn't mean we won't see green charts the next month.
It's always an unexpected game of speculation in crypto.

Many people have the false idea that a bull run means that the price of bitcoin is making a new ATH every single day, but that is not how the markets work, there is some growth and then there is a correction and then this pattern continues for some time in which we make higher highs and higher lows, that is a bull market and this means that what we are seeing right now is nothing more than a correction, but eventually we will get out of it and the price will be headed towards a new ATH.

it can be best.. depends on you, market has been a bit good for me, i have been making profits thou... how about you mate.
now people need to buy gifts for their kids :D. no one needs cryptocurrencies now. Just wait little bit..

I think this December didn't play out well so far and today we are in Mid of it. Bitcoin is stiill side ways and Range bound, it is not making any Bullish move and Alts market is also way behind where it was predicted to be in this month but I am not disappointed and my hopes are still alive. December still has 16 more day to go and anything can happen in coming days and we may see new ATH before the years ends.

Even if digital currencies do eventually supplant or at least co-exist with traditional paper currencies, it's difficult for investors to predict exactly which cryptocurrencies will survive, let alone which one will be the dominant long-term player in the industry

It's too uncomfortable. All funds have shrunk by 30 points. It is too depressing. This December is simply toxic. All the game coins held now have collapsed.

It's a big mistake to repeat last year's scenario.
The market is controlled by manipulators and while there are many longs open,
then it is more profitable for manipulators to lower prices in order to bankrupt margin traders.

There may be a New Year rally soon, but the market at this time is very unpredictable.

This should be avoided for anyone. the market does not depend on a youtuber and youtubers also do not necessarily have an accurate analysis. I think this really should be avoided, especially beginners, don't get trapped by YouTube marketing.
the best thing is to do the analysis independently and choose coins based on the roadmap and concepts not based on youtube marketing

It's definitely a toxic December if you ask me but that is expected because this bull season have started since last year 2020 so huge correction is a possibility, I advice you should take profits and leave behind only amount you can see at 40% loss

That's a very high thing for Bitcoin to achieve so it will still need a very big struggle from early next year, because if Bitcoin can be able to be at a price of $70K for one unit, then that is a very good thing too because it is the next ATH for Bitcoin and will also affect the lives of the Altcoins which will be for the better.

Basically, only a bit more than a week is left in this year. I really doubt that after Christmas, anyone would bother to announce something or do savage trades.

What we all expect - a new ATH as a minimum, or $100k for one Bitcoin as a maximum. I find it hard to believe that something might trigger such a growth. 15 days left till NY, even if the price increases for $1k everyday, new ATH wont be achieved. At least because the price would always pump down a bit.

It's true that the analysis from Youtubers does not guarantee that it will be accurate and correct,
not always what they say is true and also we don't know whether the youtuber is an expert and has skills in analysis or not,
So it's better to believe in your own abilities

True, I also watch lot of videos of famous youtubers but rarely their predictions play out. I have working in crypto space for more than 4 years now and what I have witnessed that Bitcoin moves opposite to what majority of crypto community expects. Having said that this is also true that Bitcoin rises faster than it drops but you have to be patient. We are in the mid of December now and Market is range bound but I still believe that we will see new ATH before the end of 2021. 

I have had this same thought that things are quite different this December, I was really expecting a huge uptrend this December just like what happened in December of 2017; the market reached a new all time high at this point, but this year seems to be quite different. But I’m still positive about it, because it’s quite possible that before the year runs out there might happen to be a bull run to end the year.

This is very much possible, and if we should look at the price movement that took place that December of the last ATH price (2017) before this year’s ATH, you would see that it is something that happened during the ending of December, so there is still the possibility of that happening again.

December doesn't seem playing nice for investors. And the day I fear the most is Friday as if seem like every Friday since we entered this month is a Black Friday, market keep getting dip 😂

indeed this december looks very strange to some people because the bullrun only lasts for a very short time, now the market is back to bearish but for me this decline is a very profitable thing, because i can buy some quality altcoins at low prices, such ETH, BNB, DOT and SOL, I believe early  run 2022 bull  will return.

December is usually not a good month for crytocurrencies and history keep repeating itself is always.The Market is not in a good situation right now everything seems to be going down really hope we are not going into a downtrend let's it just be a market correction before prices will regain momentum again.

It always keeps on the red line but the price is still high and way different from the previous December's. I wasn't seeing this as a weird thing as we always see the market is in the pump and dump scene, it always and forever.

That's right, we only just hope for the recovery but neither to think that it will work fast as it relies on how the people will take action on the current situation and if they will also sell and dump their coins, the more it drives the market price going down.

Although I am disappointed like most people, who really hope this December will be a bullish trend. It turned out that surprisingly it had reached
the middle of December the crypto market was still very difficult to recover. But as you said, we really have to look at the current bearish trend
from the positive side, which gives us the opportunity to collect potential coins. Because if we learn from the history of the crypto movement,
every time market experience a bearish trend, there will be a bullish trend. So we can imagine that now is a good opportunity to buy some potential
coins, moreover the decline in some coins is quite drastic, so we can buy at a cheap price. If your prediction is correct that early 2022 the market
will be bullish again, we can make a profit, because it has bought coins before.

Isn't the price that is difficult to predict a hallmark of crypto money, so if you've been in the crypto world for a long time now I think it's normal, you don't have to worry anymore when the red market will, and one day turn green again.
tips: never get hung up on people's opinions try to predict and research the assets you have and learn when you are ready to withdraw your assets and re-enter

I think every December, the market condition is always the same red, isn't it normal and returns to green at the end of the year towards the beginning of the year, it will be seen that the market situation in the future will continue to be bullish or decrease
Don't believe in other people, friends, about your financial problems, it will make you dizzy thinking about it and you will make a wrong step in making decisions, try to analyze yourself

Unfortunately, we don't know when the whales decide to pump it again.  :-\
Well, whales sometimes are quite annoying, they force the market to have a long correction when everyone expects for the last pump. When the weak holders give up and sell all their coins, then the whales decide to pump and make the market alive again. The whales play the game, if we aren't strong holders, we will be the victim.

No one would able to predict on what would be the future looks like and i cant blame out people on why they do always have that impression whenever we do reach out
the month of December because this is the month on where big actions and events do happen and  remembering that we do reach ATH's on these times or having some good bullish run and this is on when we do  reach out  the time of December then we do really have that kind of impression and if theres something nothing happened then
we do get used to make out some odd feeling.

There is no need to be afraid of Friday because that day is a weekly worship day for every Muslim in the world and it would be very strange if you were only afraid of the coming of Friday because the market decline never knew what day even though by chance you saw a decline on Friday. ;D

This is a natural thing, it seems we also saw this trend in December last year. I'm sure some whales may start to get saturated or they currently want to go on a year-end holiday. I'm sure at the beginning of the year it was a good trend. Cryptocurrencies always have their surprises every year. Let's see a surprise next year.

most of the crypto bloggers mislead their audience, because they need more views on their channel, but not the essence of the problem, so I recommend that you do not go to social networks and have your own opinion. And as for December, I am sure that the correction will pass and we will see new ATH.

I think cryptocurrencies are currently entering a saturated trend so some large investors are starting to abandon the trend of cryptocurrency investment. But it will usually come back again, just waiting for the time when cryptocurrencies will return to the bull market. December is usually a red month for cryptocurrencies.

The new ATH will not occur in December because the correction is still very big to happen but for January next year, I'm a little sure that market conditions will start to change and reverse direction like now where some good coins might get their new ATH.

I've known the end of the year to be bullish and it feels like this year is not towing that line. The market has been volatile and only those skilled traders would be able to make the best out of the situation. I do wish that the value of Bitcoin would skyrocket to serve as a boost to altcoin.

You said it well that it is too early to conclude what this December will give us in cryptocurrency. We can not say it is black for this month when we are only half gone into the month. And yes last December was green for the market. I know it will also turn out that way for rest of this month. My hope is high of what to expect for this month. It will be positive.

December would be shocking. Q2 of 2022 is probably more likely. There’s a chance they could make it work Q1, but considering the history, Q2 or Q3 or probably more likely to happen.

I think this is something that usually happens with Crypto values and prices, it is true that this December all digital currency prices are experiencing a correction, but that is not a problem in my opinion. because there will be a time when all these cryptos experience the Hype again.

I cannot equate the situation in December with the conditions in last December. This year the market looks like a game to be played. This has been felt since last October, even this year's crypto price journey is very different from previous years. The only thing that is clearly visible is the Bitcoin price.

So far 2021 December failed to walk in same path as past December, this shows that we can't 100% predict where crypto market is heading for real, all we are going to stick with is predictions and charts, Moreover I believe that this bull market have reached its limit already, from here on we should be very careful with decisions we make

I don't believe on youtubers that predicts about the cryptos because most of them are paid advertisers only so one should avoid such experts and should believe on own analysis. On the other hand, December is really bad for me so far it eats my profit but I am holding it tight because I am positive that market will bounce back in the coming months. Now the game is only about patience those who keep patience will get good fruit of profit.

Someway, somehow I keep asking myself if the consistent weekly Dip is due to the festive around the corner. Most importantly, I hope everyone make the best out of it but I can't wait for December to be over.

I confirm that this december was a strange december from my experience with cryptocurrencies.
Actually I searched in the media to find out exactly what happened, but there was no relevant answer to my question. The media seems have lost their direction and enthusiasm, I'm afraid they knowing something but don not dare to publish it to everyone because of pressure from several parties.

Instead of talking about the strange feeling, I just see a slightly revamped and refreshed feeling of the story, as well as the script of many movies, the setting and the characters have not changed but drawing more elements plus a big increase in detail it makes everything come to life, even so, the final segment and output are still the same. We should not think too complicatedly about this December, nor need to search for more answers, media and news have been bribed and mixed with false information, knowing more only reduces our initial confidence and composure

December is weird because we are having so many red days? If so then I don't agree with that, it's simply a bearish time, and I expected that long ago, but it didn't happen when I expected, of course! We had a crazy good year, and to be honest, I didn't expect some coins to reach so high prices, but they did, so normally a drop came and now we are seeing a downtrend... well, it's good, I have money ready for some shopping, but not yet, I guess we will see the prices going down more.

What happens is that for many months since April, May, people began to forecast that this same 2021 the price of BTC would reach the minimum $ 100k, and they have their good foundations, both in the S2F model and some analysts, Also other traders on Wall Street and people got the idea that they had to buy BTC fast at $ 40k- $ 50k to earn at $ 100k, some even speak of $ 150k, so this information through the networks, articles, news it reaches the whales and the whales are not there to please the masses, the whales are to earn themselves, and instead of raising the price what they did was to lower the price, this is normal, at any moment it will rise, just when the mass thinks that it will not go up any more and go short, that will be the best time to go up.

Especially for Bitcoin, if we look at the current Bitcoin price, it is very suitable to buy because the price next year will exceed the current price and for me investing in a coin like Bitcoin is the best investment, regardless of the issues circulating. I still believe that Bitcoin can reach a price of $100k.

I'm sorry but i have to say we have to be more realistic, don't place too much hope about predicting bitcoin price that high. We already hit 2 times all time high this year, and if the next year is a full bear season it's still normal for the market, that means next year is the buying time.
So making expectation for another all time high is not good and not realistic IMHO.

December almost ended and one day left so we can say this December is weird for crypto investors, most YouTubers that is good knowing they can predict but are not sure about the crypto market in December, most of them were predicted December will be Bullrun but all predictions was wrong. so this December is gone weird.

Definately this December is a weird one, We were expected that in this December we will see another all time high in BTC but this month market is  getting down  again and again and market is going so boring and weird one and now the December is going to be end  and now that we can expect new in the market

bulls at the end of the year look like it's going to be weird. I always worry about the moment when the big days are sure people will need more money. like Christmas and New Year. or religious holidays. This does not mean that there will be a decline, but the market tends to move more quickly and is unpredictable as usual.
So far nothing strange I guess. all-natural when people withdraw some of their money for greater needs of course it creates a shock in the market.

I guess it is safe to say that maybe many have been holding their coins at this moment, and as much there are people who are selling, there also the ones who are buying back or buying more, right? Maybe this December has been different because of the year that we all have been through is different as well, and so the mindset and goals of the people have changed too. And with that, the market will depend on such behavior of the users.

Most of the content be find in the YouTube are paid to the content creator , In November & December we had seen a huge fluctuation in the market , Asian country passing the bill of crypto Chinese government interface in matter everything is getting worse but due to Whale and some educated influncer market is again in its recovery mode Earlier we are imagining btc over 72k$ at the end of December but i think we need to wait some more time to see these Happy New Year to all

As today is the last day of this December, I guess this must be the right time to conclude about this year's December month with respect to cryptocurrencies. Unlike previous bull year's December month, I guess we have somehow better December this time. Previous year's December were known for bringing a final ATH but this time we had by November itself still December has only sideways but not steep falling markets.

I always listen to this community rather than any of social media. Sideways market must be a good thing because it may trigger bullish trend at any time hence I am just seeing this December month as a preparation phase for 2022 bull run.

The market is always unpredictable, I've known crypto since 2015 and usually the market in December always skyrockets or is the highest among other months, but the December market is red and continues to decline, I hope trends like 2018-2020 don't happen again.

Yes, you are right that the market is always unpredictable and the price of cryptocurrencies they are volatile. But the over all this December is great for me even though the price of BTC going down but compared to the last year it seems that the price for now is going high.

If you think December is weird, look at last December, it was also very weird for me (but very good, just saying that weird doesn't always need to mean bad hehe).

I'm hoping for an even weird 2022, but in a good sense. I still haven't lost hope that BTC can go to 100k in this rally. I know it will eventually come, but hoping for 2022 rather than 2025 :)

Even Bitcoin can we mention it as the first Crypto before the birth of a large Altcoin in the Crypto room. In addition, Bitcoin is a reflection of other coins so that when the price decreases, other coins also experience the same thing even though in just a small amount. Therefore investing in Bitcoin will always be fun and comfortable in my opinion.

Not very bad I would say compared to last December. Though there was not much hype in Bitcoin price, we could see few moves with altcoins. There usually be a correction after an ATH and yes we could see 2 to 3 ATH of Bitcoin this 2021. And yes as we are moving to 2022, we should thank 2021 for supporting and lifting up crypto to the next level. Yes, once the correction is over, we can expect a hike in price.

Cryptos were on a very resilient course in December. rose and fell. It's the same with the stove. It's like people are getting cold. First it rises and attracts investors, then it bottoms out.

Will continue to February or maybe March. The market continues to tilt, it's really like a dream. but this is the reality, The ups and downs will still continue, almost some crypto is moving sideway, the price is really unpredictable. If you are an investor who has bought several coins before the turn of the year, it would be better to be patient with conditions like this. Or you can also add to your coin collection when the price is cheap.

YouTube channel become way for advertising many shit coin and they come as influencer about which one coin give them many fees as advertiser and not really understand about the future coin price. Never make source when buying coin on YouTube channel because right now many advertiser not coming from cryptocurrency become advertising on YouTube channel and talk about bitcoin or altcoin exactly really understand but they just know bitcoin few days only.

From the end of December until now the value of crypto is decreasing so many investors have to hold coins that are invested at this time, but this decline will not fully last long maybe this is only limited to corrections of a few coins so that it affects all coins, then we just live what is happening and do not feel panic because the crypto world is volatile, So things like this are common to us.

This is quite reasonable because indeed they are only creating temporary hype and when they are lucky they are certain to leave and why look at coins that are not clear what will happen in the future.
because I really feel like coins like this are only for a moment even though the increase is high.
this can probably be said to be a natural cleanser of coins like this because when something like this happens the coins that have no potential have no place to recover so they will still be dead projects.

You can see that bitcoin gets under 15% dump while entire of crypto market particularly for metaverse tokens were unloading so hard. Assuming you are a weighty financial backer, you should realize that you really want to investigate when to pull back your speculation.

No one knows, everyone has his/her opinion on the market movement.
However, if you have been in the market for so long and has experience a bear market already, I would say that the signs are here already.
All coins are going down, investors doesn't want to pour their money, then we have TA pointing to the direction of a worst dumping.
I would agree that we don't need to panic, but at least you should now how to hedge your investments.

I didn't see anything strange last December, because I think the ups and downs of coin prices are very normal in the crypto market, even the ups and downs of coin prices can have a positive impact on buyers and sellers, I think if we always monitor the market movement then we will be able to control our own patience and emotions.

After an increase in prices in 2021, but in December until now the price of coins again decreased then we all feel we will be back in a bear market then in this case we must be ready to face any situation, but I believe the current price decline is only a moment and all coins will definitely increase again for the future, Then we must take advantage of the current situation to invest in some potential coins in order to get a big profit.

December and January dark month for trader and investor because not like an expectation market will green and up higher price, now the only hope as waiting on February how positive side or not because Whales coming without can't prediction and not any body with Russia make FUD about bitcoin. I hope will have good thing for end this month although Chinese new year is not friendly with cryptocurrency will light and have good price.

It's a wrong move to follow Youtube trends and influencers because you will surely lose the right track. Also, there's no specific pattern in crypto so not every December's event would be the same. There will surely be fud and shill everywhere but they could only deceive you. Keep in mind that some Youtube crypto contents aren't reliable.

Assuming you are a weighty financial backer, you should realize that you really want to investigate when to pull back your venture. Just my perspective, cause there is not a lot motivation to keep away from reception. Well btc is the main mark of what could occurred.
