Odaily Planet Daily News: The cryptocurrency market often experiences cyclical changes, with Bitcoin leading the rise first, followed by altcoins. Investors seek additional returns using newly acquired market profits, leading capital to flow into altcoins, which triggers a sharp rebound in a short period. Currently, Bitcoin is experiencing one of its worst Decembers to date, making the seasonal bull market period look bleak, with a 2% decline over the past 30 days. Due to profit-taking and cautious sentiment after weeks of price fluctuations, hopes for a 'Santa rally'—the phenomenon of assets tending to rise during Christmas week—may have already been dashed. Some warn that with the Federal Reserve hinting at fewer rate cuts next year and emphasizing that it does not seek national Bitcoin reserves, Bitcoin may face further declines. (Coindesk)
