I believe in the patterns of growth of bitcoin and its prices. I see bitcoin decreasing at this time of the year as expected and so it will bounce back at due time no matter how strict regulations governments want to take on cryptocurrencies.
You know bitcoin price in 2017 was more than expected, some predicted 10,000$ last year but it passed that and maintained its price above that predicted price so those who knew what could possibly happen took advantage and are not crying out loudly as some are doing. For me, considering btc price for 2018 as 10000$ is cool price to start with so let's prepare to moon and stop thinking about governments around the world. They have nothing good for us apart from high taxes.

My lat words: consider coins drop as something expected and for that reason, you should have prepared to meet it. This is what people believe in and for that reason, the beginning of every year will start with this same drop as I know very well that those who have learnt a lesson from this will case out early next year 2019 and the drop will start from there again...this is how it'll be and will continue. Sorry if you didn't know this earlier.
