What a crash! No I'm kidding, it's normal, a little recap of these days!
Fed speech: Jerome Powell's comments on a slowdown in rate cuts cooled the markets.
Massive liquidations: About $825 million in long positions were liquidated, amplifying the fall.
Economic and political uncertainties: Volatility increased due to political tensions and fears about the global economy.
Market correction: After a sharp rise, the market undergoes a natural correction. In December, it's time to buy Christmas gifts.
Who cares:
Dismantling of cryptocurrency ATMs in Paris
Thirteen cryptocurrency ATMs have apparently been dismantled in Paris following a report from the Autorité des Marchés Financiers (AMF).
Proposals for strategic reserves in Bitcoin
Discussions have taken place regarding the creation of strategic state reserves in Bitcoin, particularly in Europe.
Bybit Shuts Down in France
Exchange platform Bybit has announced its shutdown in France, asking users to withdraw their funds by January 8.

Very nice comeback, +18% currently. Possible retracement on the zone at $2.155. (Need to regain strength to go back to $2.41.)
Nice crypto, great future 👍

Small Update on BNT
Over the last week, the Bancor Network Token (BNT) has recorded a notable drop (like the rest of the Alts) of 16.53%, with a current price around $0.74. (Not to mention the rise over the last two days)
The market capitalization is $81 million, and trading volumes remain stable.
This bearish trend reflects an unfavorable global context for many altcoins.
In the short term, the token could evolve favorably but longer-term forecasts suggest a possible rise to 2.5 $ to 7.5 $ by 2025, according to some analysts.
The change in the 2025 economic landscape could bear fruit on DEFI, especially on projects that have managed to pass the different waves such as BNT, COMP, AAVE, XRP.
The regulatory context should become more flexible and the adoption of cryptos for direct payments should see the light of day in the EU (as is the case with XRP for the Japanese).

Bitcoin’s current correction is worrying some investors, but it’s not alarming.
What’s next for BTC?
Bitcoin’s price remains close to $100,000, maintaining its attractiveness for supporters.
Figures like BTC advocate Michael Saylor see this decline as an opportunity for accumulation.
Bitcoin has already shown in the past its ability to bounce back after periods of volatility.
This phase could be seen as a “breather” before a potential new rise.
For some investors, this is therefore a good time to buy Bitcoin.

US Economy
Trump President:
No transition period between administrations. Trump is already taking control.
An unprecedented situation, with a series of injunctions and threats that seem to bear fruit even before being implemented.
His presence at the reopening of Notre-Dame marks a strong symbolic act, but it is above all through his actions that he marks the beginning of his mandate.
In the Middle East:
Events are unfolding at an incredible speed.
Syria fell in a matter of days, a setback for a country once allied with Iran, an enemy of Trump.
Trump threatened Hamas and Iran regarding the hostages, and we learn that Hamas is seeking to negotiate a ceasefire.
In Ukraine:
Trump has already met with Zelensky in Paris.
He clearly expressed the need for a ceasefire and announced a reduction in arms shipments.
In a tweet, he announced that he would bring Vladimir Putin, a leader he knows well, back to the negotiating table.
Tariffs:
His threats of tariffs have created a global panic.
From China to Europe, everyone is ready to negotiate to avoid a trade war.
Trump will quickly get the agreements he wants.
The administration:
He has planned a radical purge of the administration.
"Voluntary" resignations are multiplying at a dizzying speed, freeing up space for his supporters.
On his arrival, he will only have to install his loyalists and begin his crusade against regulation.
He also announced that he will keep Jerome Powell at the head of the FED until May 2026, against all expectations.

Hello Scrooge Pack, small update on the BNT and yesterday's flash crash.
As mentioned in a previous tweet, normal correction to gain more height.
Eco cause: El Salvador VS IMF, wars, economic forecasts, future regulation etc.
Chart cause: retracement after 200 to 250 days, some talk about whales, others about a technical problem on binance etc., everyone sees what they want!
BTC dominance is decreasing, the alt has not yet started.
Updated BNT, retracement on the zone, certain recovery to fill the candle (maybe in two stages) then 🚀 on a second support.

Normal cycle ✔️
200 to 250 days after the halving, the price decreases and then recovers even more.. Another opportunity that bitcoin and especially the Alts leave us..
History repeats itself…I think I already said it today on another Tweet 😉🧐

The Peak of the Bull Run…
Summary:
The expected peak of the next Bitcoin bull run could occur in mid- to late-2025, or approximately 480 to 546 days after the April 2024 halving. Price projections range from $130,000 to $145,000, although some optimistic scenarios suggest even higher levels thanks to Bitcoin ETF approvals and increased institutional interest.
Impact on Altcoins:
Halo Effect: During a Bitcoin bull run, altcoins typically benefit from an influx of liquidity. Once Bitcoin peaks or stabilizes, investors often turn to altcoins to maximize their gains.
Delayed Cycles: Altcoins may see their own bull cycle after Bitcoin’s. The “majors” (Ethereum, Solana, XRP, etc.) tend to react first, followed by smaller altcoins.
BTC Dominance: During initial bullish phases, Bitcoin often dominates the market, which can limit the performance of altcoins until confidence broadens across the crypto ecosystem.
In short, a significant rise in Bitcoin through 2025 could lead to a major bull cycle for altcoins, especially after BTC peaks.
patience = performance 💰
Sales are today, not tomorrow 😏

Bancor Weekly Trend Analysis:
Over the past 24 hours, the Bancor Network Token (BNT) price has shown a slight increase, standing at around $0.94, an increase of 0.88% compared to the previous day. The trading volume over this period was around $10.8 million, indicating moderate activity in the market. The daily price range has been between $0.8957 and $0.9556
BINANCE
CRYPTOMARKETCAP
.
In terms of recent performance, BNT has shown a positive trend over the week, with a significant increase of 18.7%.
However, its current price is significantly undervalued. (See chart since the beginning of 2018)
A definite recovery towards the end of the year is to be expected. Its historic high of 10.72 USD reached in January 2018, then a nice height in 2021 at 9.80 can lead us to think that BNT has very good days ahead of it.
As a reminder, BNT is one of the oldest DeFi cryptos that has managed to hold its own through fluctuations. Solid and with huge projects to come… We hope that the rumor of a Blackrock ETF on XRP and BNT is not false!
COINGECKO
.
These variations reflect a gradual recovery, supported by increased interest in decentralized finance (DeFi) platforms, where Bancor plays a key role thanks to its automated liquidity management protocol.

XRP, BNT, LDO, ONDO, SUI, PEPE which has the most potential:
LDO (Lido): The most potential thanks to liquid staking and the adoption of Ethereum 2.0.
SUI: Promising as an innovative blockchain, but still very young.
XRP: Strong adoption possible if Ripple resolves its legal issues.
ONDO: Underestimated, interesting for institutional DeFi.
BNT: Under pressure but shows signs of significant rebounds, if it exceeds $1, it will head towards its ATH.
PEPE: Pure speculation, risky and dependent on trends. (don't trust frogs)
Recommended strategy: Favor LDO, BNT and SUI for the long term, monitor XRP, and consider ONDO as an undervalued opportunity. And for casino players, PEPE seems a good opportunity 😉
LDO (Lido): The most potential thanks to liquid staking and the adoption of Ethereum 2.0.
