Hope to see ETH's rebound in the coming months
Today's drop was a spike event, with ETH stopping its decline 15 minutes ahead of BTC, and then began to rise. Major options traders are also establishing bullish positions in ETH for Q1 2025.
BTC.d formed a long upper shadow today, so we will keep an eye on this indicator. Once the next peak of BTC.d is confirmed and starts to turn down, the altcoin season will be upon us.
Currently, I am only looking at ETH; I just bottomed out again at 3420 with 15000u, using 10x leverage. The reason is simple: ETH is the leader among altcoins and the second in the crypto world. If it doesn't reach ATH, the altcoin season won't materialize, at most it will just be sector rotation.
History always tends to repeat itself. We are less than 3 months away from the first sell-off in 2025, and ETH will likely experience a rebound. We are now in the final grinding phase for ETH, so don’t give up. Looking back at the price movement from January to May 2021, BTC fluctuated downwards and reached new highs. After several operations, everyone started to FOMO, and during March to May, when ETH rebounded, altcoins began to celebrate, ultimately leading to the significant drop on May 19.

If history repeats itself, we will likely see a market similar to March-May 2021 from January to March 2025. Be aware of the risks and consider taking profits.

Shitcoins can’t be played with; they will really get you wiped out. This is not for small retail investors; it follows the decline but not the rise. 95% of the shitcoins on the market only have one wave of hype. Interest rates are expected to be cut twice next year, initially expected to be four times; the expectations for rate cuts next year have decreased. In the U.S., there are basically hawkish statements, saying one thing and doing another. Looking at the market trends of 2023, January was all declines, and only by the end of the month did the market start to warm up. Currently, we can only play the short-term, fast in and out.

To summarize the key points from the afternoon:

1: BlackRock and Grayscale are both increasing their positions in spot assets; one is increasing mainstream assets, while the other is increasing shitcoins.

2: Bitcoin is rebounding on reduced volume; the momentum is not as strong as before, and prices rebounding in the 102600-103000 range will continue to decline 📉

3: Ethereum has a double low on the 4-hour chart at 3646 and 3591, which can be used as a buy point, with a stop loss at 3555.

4: Solana's bull flag has not been broken; continue to buy at the lower edge of the 204 and 200 channel, with a stop loss at 197.

5: For safety, consider bottom fishing for mainstream assets like ETH, BNB, and SOL.

6: USUAL is really strong; wait for a pullback to position.

7: A certain whale continues to expand its long position in AAVE, spending $3.18 million to purchase 9,702 AAVE; there’s no problem with following the big players if you don’t have your own coins.

8: Longling Capital whale address bought 6,000 ETH.

9: Trader Eugene Ng Ah Sio is bullish on SOL after losing a million dollars on meme coins.

Breaking News!! New Perspective: Ethereum is just a testnet! Polkadot's DOT is the future of Web3!!
As a PhD student in Computational Neuroscience, my viewpoint is that the tech stack built by Gavin Wood on Polkadot is unlike anything currently in the crypto space... DOT has created something very unique in the massive update of JAM. The improvements already implemented in DOT are agile core time and elastic wake-up, allowing developers and companies to purchase a month's worth of computing power at a fixed cost in one go. You can buy more computing power as needed or sell unused computing power to others. Fixed costs are absolutely a key factor for large companies, as opposed to having to pay gas for every transaction they want to make (which can become very expensive during high-capacity periods on-chain), and projects now know exactly how many computations they can do each month. There is also asynchronous support. Projects/Parachains can now independently submit blocks, significantly reducing latency.
Their last major upgrade was JAM (Joint Accumulation Machine). This will fundamentally address scalability and synchronization issues. Currently, the larger the chain, the worse the synchronization. But JAM will solve the problem by allowing projects/Parachains to accumulate their own blocks and state chains and submit these batches to the relay chain. This eliminates the constant back-and-forth dialogue for each block between the relay chain and Parachains. This also means that each Parachain can process blocks in parallel instead of waiting to be added to the relay chain state. This will greatly increase the throughput of the network. It is estimated that there are millions of TPS on the main chain, not a test network, nor a sidechain, but the main network itself. And there is more, but I will stop here.
The developer of Ethereum's Yellow Paper, Gay Wood, the mastermind behind EVM, called Ethereum his testnet, and he is not joking.

Polkadot: Could a $5,000 Investment Become $1 Million by 2030?

If you invest $5,000 in Polkadot ($DOT ) at $8.50, you’d receive about 588 $DOT . To reach $1 million, DOT would need to hit roughly $1,700 per token—an enormous jump. But if the crypto market grows to around $10 trillion by 2030, this target isn’t out of reach.

Polkadot’s credentials are impressive: founded by Gavin Wood, who also co-founded $ETH Ethereum, it boasts some of the best tokenomics in the space, with its full supply already in circulation. Ethereum itself soared from under $1 to nearly $5,000 at its peak, showing how flagship projects can achieve astronomical gains.

If Polkadot’s technology cements its role as the backbone of next-generation blockchain networks—facilitating seamless interoperability and scaling—four-figure valuations could become a reality. Under these conditions, transforming a $5,000 stake into $1 million by 2030 might be more than just a dream.

Is there anything else you'd like to know about Polkadot or cryptocurrencies in general?

$DOT saw many analyses of the market, again before the end of the year breaking 19 dollars, again how many times it has risen, I think it is difficult to even reach 13 dollars!!!!
