Why did the Altcoins skirocket at 16 december 2017?

Hey everyone,

I'm trying to figure out why on multiple tradingsites, most altcoins (like Verge, DOGEcoin, Redcoin etc.) had a big jump on 16 December.
Is there anything in the news I missedout on? Any reasonable interpretations are welcome!

Just can say that I heard that in many crypto exchanges everyday registered more than 50 000 new accounts. I think this is just trend. And so much people start buying bitcoins and altcoins.

I think people are just looking for other ways to profit since Bitcoin has hit a peak for some time...

I can't figure it out, I think after a huge bitcoin pump now it is altcoin's turn. I don't really want my coins to rise now but they are rising  As I took my little capital, now I feel relaxed
