Today is 31st of December and by now you should have know that 100btc in 2021 is impossible and also things is different this time around, December is always a good year for crypto most especially when bull season is still around but this December brakes that history and become something we haven't seen before, what have you learn here?

Take this from it... Past results do not guarantee future returns.

The crypto markets haven't been very good to us this December, but I'm still confident it will turn around. You're right that the whole $100,000 BTC thing is pretty much impossible now, but the coin is still way up over the year, and so are many others like Ethereum. December hasn't been great, but 2021 overall has been pretty good. Let's hope things turn back around in January!

You mean the expected prediction of $100,000? Yeah, for obvious reasons it didn't happen. And agree, usually December is very bullish month, unfortunately, with the discovery of the new Covid-19 strain, somehow investors then to pull back and pour their money on the market.

I think the first thing that we've learn is that the market is really unpredictable, and what I mean is that there could be predictions, this and that, but we all know that they are just making a wild and educated guess like you and me.

It's because we have reached twice the new all time high already.

While many altcoins already enjoy their pump in the last 2 years. So overall if was a good year with so many challenges specially when the covid-19 hits in 2020. And yet we still grow in 2021, reaches all time high so that good already. Forget about this December though, we should look all forward to 2022 and hopefully we will get to the 6 digits soon.

History will not always repeat itself as December is now and the only difference is that the price is more expensive than the previous December, and the decline occurred towards the end of December after touching the highest ATH.
Most people's hopes and predictions of 100K at the end of December or the end of the year have not been achieved and maybe in 2022 it will be achieved, hopefully.
and but 2021 is a very significant and unexpected change and increase that we must keep in mind because I don't think the bitcoin price will return to its lows, and 2021 is the opening of the bitcoin price to go higher and continue to rise for years to come.

Happy New Year Everyone.

This is a volatile market. It's not like that market will follow the same pattern every time when everyone was expected Bull move in the month of December so I would say market makers move the market opposite to investors or traders thinking. We should see the market in long-term prospects so that we will not be worried about the market. This market is good for those who have patience and bad for impatient traders or investors.

Yeah, the highly anticipated $100k mark was not met in 2021 which might be a disappointing thing for many people here but we need to be satisfied for the growth shown by most of the cryptocurrencies. Overall, not just this December but the whole year 2021 must be a complete different year when we compare it to previous bullish year of crypto space like 2013 and 2017.

Now the good thing is, we can be confident about having another wave of bulls in 2022 which might bring $100k levels for bitcoin but at the same time how this altcoin space is going to react for bull run must be a million dollar question here.

Having 100 btc in 2021-2022 is not impossible because that will depend on how you can get it. If you search in the altcoin market, you will have a chance to make more and more btc as right now, you will do so many altcoins that can help you accumulate more btc. If you think you are difficult to accumulate btc from btc pair usdt, you can use altcoin to make a profit in bitcoin so your btc amount can increase while you can wait for the next bullish trend.

This December is different from the last December in the previous year and the next year will also be different from the previous year. I learned that we need to know more about the market if we still want to earn more and more. We can not just try to accumulate more bitcoin without learning because we will fail if we still do that.

Crypto market has been unpredictable and with the adverse effect of multiyear and multiple cycles of pandemic, the whole world economy is in jeopardy.  Predictions would be hard to make. As far as I know, most of the December has been slow or bearish for crypto. People expect more activities after February. And with summer overall atmosphere with the pandemic and global economy too could improve.

What I've learned is that people are not selling off their Bitcoin unlike in the previous Christmas holidays. It was to see that they are learning fast and keeping BTC will venture them more profits. It was indeed a different Christmas where people are still fully recovered from the pandemic crisis which is something that drives them to think about not spending much this month rather think about the future used.
I don't where to see it breaks the history coz I guess it happens most of the time.

of course because it depends of the situation of the market as well, wherein we cannot assure that everytime bitcoin can succeed based on our prediction as it all depends what's the condition of the market . But yeah even though bitcoin failed to reach 100k  this year, at least it gave us more opportunity to regain our losses and to multiply our money compared last year.  Just imagine 2 ATH this year?

The bull cycle has been very different. We have had two rounded tops in 2021, not a parabolic run which is different. We didn’t go as high as many of us expected but hopefully that means we don’t have the usual 80%+ dump during the bear market. Maybe bitcoin is becoming a mature asset & we will see diminishing returns & smaller dips in the bear markets. Maybe the pandemic diluted our bull run. We will find out in time.

What are you talking about ?
I think you mean bitcoin didn't reach $100k price per bitcoin and you though every December would result in a bull run.
Since you are relatively new in the crypto sphere you are having these misconceptions.

It's not necessary that every December would result in a price pump. You should see the charts and see how 2018 and 2019 were.
The long bear market was really heart wrenching and it shows how it's not necessary that price pumps occur every end of the year.

As for the speculation of bitcoin price reaching $100k per bitcoin it will reach someday or the other.
May be in 2022 or in 2023. We never know but it will.

Well, you might be expecting that bitcoin will reach $100k just like me and the others. But let's put that into another year to come, we're all speculating and that's okay if it won't happen this day, the last day of the year.

There are other months for 2022 which it can potentially reach that price. This December is still good compared to December 2020. Look at how much the price of bitcoin last year at the same day or with the entire month of December 2020 and after looking, you should be grateful and impressed.

Enough is enough lol, since march 2020 BTC have reached a new milestone from 3800$ to 67000$ what more do you people want? Covid or not market will crash at one point in time even kiyosaki predicted the same thing because institutions know that they can double their BTC holdings is market crashes, wake the hell up

December is always good for crypto due to other markets down and investors were invested in the crypto market and this year expectation price of BTC was $100K but due to OMICRON  and other markets down crypto market have also pressure and BTC not closed at a good price so I hope new year we will see the BTC price $100k. So the expectation should be good next December.

Everyone should please stop blaming Omicron virus for market failure in surging this December, people and investors have come to understand that crypto is unstoppable in any harsh situations, the Omicron case isn't the first of its kind and here we are today, how many lockdown have happened compare to march 2020 Covid? How is the fear compare to what we've seen before? Stop saying what you aren't even sure about

I think this year is the year for crypto, there are many new things and there are also many new projects that made me very left behind from the previous year..and I hope this may be an initial hope for me to return to be able to organize the future in the new year..
.

Look at the positive things, Bitcoin broke its all-time high, there is a new industry just created this year and that's the NFT and Bitcoin dominance is now BTC 38.2% a year ago it was over 60%, which means other projects are getting a lot of support and adopted by the community and this is good for the community, 2022 will give us a lot of surprises but I'm sure it's a positive surprises.

I conclude from your post that during the pandemic all countries had an impact on the decline in economic statistics but not for crypto because crypto had actually increased to ATH during the collapse of the fiat economy, crypto has proven its superiority to survive in any conditions because it does not directly affect the impact of conditions in various countries, after the market correction later this year will be a bullish moment in 2022.

Six figure per BTC is possible but more adoption have to take place maybe in 2022? Well we all have to stay strong and wait for a good outcome also bear market is a possibility because it's been two years already that bull has been here so any sudden change won't be a surprise to me anymore always expect the unexpected

This wasn't the first December btc behaved like this, I can't say specifically when but it is not all December you see a massive bull run, actually, I was expecting the market to be a bit different this time especially because of the way the crypto space has evolved since 2018, I was hoping to see the market to be more stable more than the usual bear market,  but I believe compare to the previous dip, this is not that frightening, hopefully, there won't be more dip in 2022,
One thing I learn is to have a set target and stick to it regardless of what else is happening in the market.

Without a doubt the December that we are experiencing and that is about to end is not what we were expecting, however it is not as big of a deal as some people are making out to be.

After all it is silly to think that during each December the price is going to go up or that we were about to have a similar December to the one we had during 2017, even if the market behaves in a similar way to the way it behaved in the past there is no guarantee it would do so at the same exact time and with the same magnitude, so we must do what any good trader or investor must do under the current circumstances, and that is to adjust our strategy depending to what we see in the market.

OK, thanks for bringing this up, I totally forget the bitcoin expirations, that's why it was pump to $48k and then suddenly goes down to $46k in the last couple of hours. And you are right usually before the expiration, prices tends to go down obviously. But there is a good case that the price might pick up again next week as usually the first week of the year are very bullish in the last 4 years.

This is why we say the market is very unpredictable. Just because the price went up during December the last few years, doesn't mean it will go up again this December. But it wasn't a bad year at all. We already reached new all time high twice this year. It was very volatile during the mid year. We went below $35,000 but did manage to recover very soon.
You mean $100k in BTC? Yeah, it was always impossible. Good we didn't hit $100k within December. I would rather prefer a steady rise in price because that is what a healthy market would look like. All those $100k price prediction was just some sort of bullshit prediction to make people FOMO into bitcoin.

Is that really the reason why bitcoin making a decline or is it just a trader's way that's why we see a slight correction? I think it's just normal to assume that bitcoin will never be predictable no matter what we do and I find it still bullish even though it decline a little. I know it will come back again to break a new ATH and I think it's starting to gain some momentum yet by making such decline so that few traders and investors could buy the dip and Fomo all the way next.

But don't expect it to happen so soon, it's just starting to move or it's just getting ready to push back.

Well who would buy that amount of BTC in 2021. Unless you're a billionaire right now, it would be too much too buy that many and even I wouldn't even think of buying that many. Maybe 2 digits of BTC would be good enough for me.
December is like a month where people just take some of their coins to fiat to enjoy their holdings at least, maybe not in the shitcoin side, due to the holiday season. It would be great to enjoy little things sometimes. :)

Not every December is a bullish year, we are just a bit disappointed now because we have a high expectation that the market will be more bullish and that bitcoin will reach at least $100,000 after making a new ATH this year multiple times. Please do understand that volatility in crypto is very high, it's unpredictable and most importantly, the bullish market does not stay forever.

So we still have to welcome 2022 and hopefully, this year is still a good year for crypto in general.

my personally 100K is a very high price ,so it can't be hit briefly in just one year ! I mean a lot of people believe that this year especially bitcoin hit that price, but it's still too early because the bitcoin price journey is still long and bitcoin is not a get rich quick scheme ! December 2021 will not be the same as the past and vice versa January 2022 will not be the same as the past ,this is the advantage of crypto I mean ! I hope same as you guys here 2022 bitcoin can hit new ATH

maybe you will say $100k in this year not 100 btc :D
We have seen prices that really make the heart spot for beginners beat very fast :D
But there are two very good moments for this year namely they changed ATH twice which makes this even better.
As for talking about December, there are some opinions that say that December is the place for corrections like now. This is based on some history that indeed concerns the month of December it is sometimes not very good for the holder but on the other hand it is very good for those who want to add to the load there

I never really expected $100k at all for 2021. That's just asking for too much, though it is still possible with the amount of money that is pouring on the market, plus the FOMO that could entail the initial price movement. December is usually the month in which the direction of the market is decided. This December doesn't really bring anything like that, as we are only going sideways from the initial drop from $60k.

people want more from bitcoin. why not be grateful that we maintain the $40k+ level? this level is already great as we have seen this price only this year.  what is more important is the expansion of crypto usage. the more people who are into crypto, the more demand and so it will further influence the price in the market.
$100k is possible but yes, it is not this year. it will be in the years to come.
though some people are expecting there will be last hoorah before this year ends, it doesn't mean you need to be disappointed in the market. this will be your opportunity to accumulate more before it runs bullish again.

Many were become optimistic predicting the price of Bitcoin will reach $100k before 2021 will end but they/we just fail. We probably ended up in the sideways $46,000. But I think it was still a good end of 2021, not really bad as it compared before as I consider this still high and bullish.

As we closely step into the year 2022, we are carrying big hopes that Bitcoin will reach for another ATH. Still believe it, and yes there is always a chance and of huge possibility as we can see that the market adoption is growing.

A lot of articles were pointing that out actually from what I've read when the bull market started. It is not unrealistic, but a difficult price to achieve if you would ask me. We haven't even manage to breach through 70k and yet we're still eyeing for 100k.
It was still kind of a good end, I agree but people should control a little bit their expectations just when the price just surged.

Although I am disappointed that Bitcoin failed to reach the price of $100k, but at least I am still grateful that the price of Bitcoin is still above
the price of $40k. As you said with Bitcoin in December 2021 being above $40k is a good achievement compared to previous years. Sometimes
we do have to realize that Bitcoin is indeed very volatile, so it often doesn't move the way we want it to. But because many people are too greedy
and want Bitcoin to go up in their favor, so some people are dissatisfied with Bitcoin's achievement in December 2021. Though now is a good
opportunity to collect more Bitcoin, because I believe in 2022 Bitcoin will be bullish again. If that happens it is very likely that the $100k price target
will be reached in 2022. So we need to see from the positive side what is happening with the decline in the price of Bitcoin now, so there is no need
to be disappointed with the current market conditions. There are still very many opportunities for us to make big profits from Bitcoin, we really need
to be patient when investing in Bitcoin.

2021 was full of FUD, so many FUD about Bitcoin was spreading. And about December, commonly the market is also blood bathing right? But I also understand that this December is little bit different, more dropped moreover in longer time as usual. But as other say, past doesn't guarantee the current situation. I personally also don't need to believe again any prediction about Bitcoin that will hit $100k. It seems too high to reach in this bullish season while Bitcoin price has increase so much this year.
Maybe the price will be side away in this early year and hopefully this will be for the era of altcoin season. Bitcoin can maintain its price in $50k has been good enough for me.

100 BTC in 2021? Do you mean BTC price $100?
Well, Bitcoin price has no a certain pattern to improve. So, the current price move can be different from the prediction. Furthermore, we know that Bitcoin is very volatile and purely depends on the current demands. I see that the current demand is a bit decreasing during the covid situation and people prioritize their basic necessities (needs). It leads to a drop in buying orders, while selling orders are increasing.

Everyone wanted and many expected a bullish December, but unfortunatelly it is not the reality we face right now. Maybe we were just too optimistic and even exaggerated to expect more from 2021 than we already have had (what has been pretty enough to say the truth, considering the last ATH).

Christmas was good for bitcoin, though. And I think the situation could be different from that moment on if it wasn't for another ETF expiration date happening these days, leading investors to drop a lot of their coins for sale, and consequently dumping the market.

Now I can just hope 2022 is going to be a great year for bitcoin.

I'm sure Solana will continue to increase, Cardano will do the same.. Ethereum and bitcoin will increase 2x.. and 2022 will be the year of Metaverse and NFT.

We just have to be hopeful and always take precautions whenever there is a price surge, always take away that feeling that you will be left out if you don't buy, this year the market will be positive we have a big jump in adoption brought to us by the NFT hype and the play to earn hype, we will eventually reach $100k this year.

Yes, we always need to hope that this year will bring a good chance for us to make a profit although it will not be easy doing that.
Last year will be a good achievement for bitcoin to have a new ATH that can help us profit from what he held before.
Although the price now is back to the lower price, it will rise again and we do not have to worry because we have another chance to buy many coins at a low price if this year has another bearish moment.
While the adoption still runs and invites more people to come to crypto, that can give the crypto market another bullish moment so we will back to make a profit.

I think that this December is a great lesson for those of us who believed that BTC would reach $ 100k or even much more from there and that the stage of the altcoins in green would come, obviously we know that the market does the opposite of what the mass Think, and now knowing this at the moment that everyone believes that the market will go down much more and everyone puts their positions in short, the rise of BTC will begin without a doubt, even much higher than its last ATH.

Times have changed December is not so good for crypto since corona, you have to repeat April and May are perfect months for crypto, don't ask why it has to be that month, use your imagination if you are really serious about crypto.
