$TRUMP launched in January 2025 as the official meme coin of Donald Trump on Solana, quickly becoming a political crypto phenomenon. Speculative demand and euphoria surrounding the inauguration drove the token from a few dollars to over $70, making it one of the largest meme projects by market cap.
Then began the sobering bearish trend: now TRUMP is trading around the $6 area, more than 90% below its all-time high. The pressure was formed by profit-taking from early investors, market risk trading around Trump's politics, and fear of the huge token reserve in associated structures.
Technically, the picture is also weak: the price is below the 50-day and 200-day SMA, with the 14-day RSI fluctuating in the 35–45 zone, indicating a prolonged correction phase without clear oversold conditions.
For the next year, the base scenario is a volatile sideways market with the risk of new lows. The potential for spikes remains only as short-term “event pumps” under new political news triggers.
For conservative investors, TRUMP is more of a lottery ticket than a long-term asset, so the position size should be strictly limited, and one should remember the political volatility.
🚨 The market has exploded! What's happening and the main highlights of the last days
After the drop to $BTC to ~85,000 $ on December 1, the market experienced a sharp rebound: BTC returned to the 92–93k zone, and the cryptocurrency market capitalization rose above $3.1 trillion again. According to analysts, the most active buyers at the bottom were whales and large institutional capital. Certain corporate players, including Strategy Inc., likely increased their positions during the local fear, while the retail community massively realized losses at levels of 80–85k.
Among the drivers of growth are the short squeeze after the liquidation of hundreds of millions of dollars in positions, the return of inflows into spot BTC-ETFs, and the expansion of cryptocurrency products by Franklin Templeton and Vanguard, which rekindled the trust of large investors. BTC briefly fell below 'fair value', which provided a technical signal to buy back.
What's next? The market is entering a phase of volatile sideways movement. A likely retest of 85–88k, but the medium-term sentiment remains moderately positive due to the accumulation of whales and institutions.
🤯The foundation that cracks as the S&P rating revealed the pain of the crypto world's dependence
The foundation that cracks at the seams, as the S&P rating revealed the pain of the crypto world's dependence. In a world built on trust in code, sometimes a voice from the old world echoes. A voice that speaks in the language of numbers, reserves, and risks. On November 26, 2025, S&P Global Ratings, the patriarch of traditional finance, did not "remind us of an unpleasant truth." It proclaimed it aloud, doing what many in the industry felt but did not dare to express so categorically: USDT, the cat of the crypto market, has weak foundations.
In 2026, the global economy enters a period of increased risks: slowing growth, debt pressure, and the threat of recession force investors to reevaluate their approach to capital preservation. Against this backdrop, gold and $BTC have again become key assets for defensive strategies.
The best choice for a conservative investor appears to be a ratio of 70% Gold / 30% BTC. Gold continues to serve as a stabilizer during turbulence, supported by central bank demand, and maintains historical resilience in crisis years.
Bitcoin at a 30% share adds growth potential to the portfolio, preserves diversification, and may provide an advantage in the event of a recovery in market optimism or the emergence of a new wave of institutional investors.
In 2026, this strategy allows for risk reduction and seizing market opportunities. The balance between gold stability and BTC dynamics is the optimal formula for a period of uncertainty.
Fan tokens of football clubs: why interest is rising again
Fan tokens of football clubs are back in the focus of traders after a year of relative silence. Coins of top clubs such as $PSG , $CITY, $BAR, $JUV , $GAL, show stable revitalization of trading volumes and increased volatility — exactly what attracts the market's attention during periods when classic altcoins are moving sideways. Fan tokens operate on a model of interaction with the club: voting on decisions, exclusive rewards, tickets, merchandise, and experiences 'closer to the team', creating a mix between Web3 and sports.
The main driver of interest is the start of the European football season and the large number of matches in autumn and winter. Additionally, partnerships between clubs and major exchanges and platforms like Socios/Chiliz play a significant role, constantly expanding the fan participation program.
From a market perspective, fan tokens often react to news much faster than classic altcoins: transfers, victories, playoff qualification, or media scandals can trigger sharp local pumps. This makes the sector interesting for short-term traders.
Although volatility remains high, the football token sector is forming as a niche but promising.
$ZEC : three-month rally, correction, and key signals for traders
In the last three months, Zcash has become one of the loudest altcoins of the year. The coin started at levels of $70–80 at the beginning of October, after which it experienced a parabolic rally to over $700, adding more than 1000% and returning to the top 20 by market capitalization. Such a jump was a direct result of the combination of several factors: the revival of global interest in privacy technologies, active discussions about the regulation of confidential transactions, and the main trigger — news from Grayscale regarding the conversion of its ZEC trust into a possible spot ETF.
Additionally, the market was supported by the technical update NU6.1, which changed the model for distributing block rewards, increased funding for the ecosystem, and signaled the return of development teams to active network updates.
After peaking, the coin underwent a sharp correction to $320–350, which looks natural after a 10× increase. Currently, ZEC is trading in a phase of high volatility, with the key support level being the zone of $280–300.
The prospects for ZEC will depend on two factors: the actual increase in the use of private transactions and the advancement of the ETF narrative.
I think there will be no significant growth until spring. Everyone is waiting for a recession and a global economic crisis. So there will be upheavals, and then a bottom will be found from which we will bounce back.

How much longer will this market torment us? I mean, how much longer can we live in a mode of 'today minus 5%, tomorrow plus 2%, then again minus'? Crypto currently looks like someone is deliberately stretching the spring to its maximum.
But the funniest thing is different: the story is always the same. Before an altseason, the market looks dead, analysts whine about macro, and people capitulate. And then BAM — and altcoins launch so fast that you can't even take a sip of coffee.
Data on liquidity, whale behavior, and market cyclicality show one thing: we are on the home stretch. The altseason has been delayed, but it is NOT canceled. Get ready — when it blows up, no one will have time to blink.
🔥“Yen Carry Trade Explodes: Why the Yen Movement Determines the Trend of the Crypto Market in 2025”
In 2025, the yen carry trade became one of the key drivers of global liquidity, and its impact on the crypto market is growing every week. The mechanics are simple: investors have been taking cheap loans in yen for decades and investing in higher-yielding assets — from the S&P500 to $BTC and high-risk altcoins. But as soon as the yen starts to strengthen, the system begins to crack.
After several decisions by the Bank of Japan to raise rates, the JPY sharply reverses its weakness, and the markets react instantly. Investors are forced to unwind positions: selling stocks, exiting risky assets, closing margin strategies, and returning borrowed yen. This triggers a global unwinding that directly hits crypto.
$BTC behaves like a classic risk-on asset at such moments: it falls along with the Nasdaq, and liquidity flees from DeFi and altcoins. Conversely, when USD/JPY rises and the yen weakens — the carry trade comes back to life, and the crypto market receives new waves of liquidity.
In the coming months, the triggers remain the decisions of the BOJ, inflation in Japan, and the dynamics of USD/JPY. These will determine whether crypto receives a new impulse or the world awaits a round of global sell-off.
there is suspicion that it will fall to 70 in December. After all, good macroeconomic news is not expected, plus the traditional decline at Christmas

As long as #Bitcoin doesn’t drop below the previous low of $74,500, I won’t accept that the bull market is over and we’re entering a two-year bear market.
I think we’ll see a $130k-$150k BTC if we can break the 50W SMA and close above $103k.
🔬 $BIO Protocol in 2026: the year of scaling and real utility
The BIO token enters 2026 with a clear focus on the DeSci ecosystem — decentralized science. After the launch of the BIO V2 version and the transition to a linear unlock schedule by May 2026, the project has achieved a significantly more stable tokenomics. This reduces the risk of sharp "dumps" and lays the groundwork for more uniform growth.
A key direction is the scaling of multi-chain capabilities. In 2026, the team plans to expand support for various blockchains and improve cross-chain interaction, which will increase the liquidity and accessibility of the token for new audiences.
The BioDAO ecosystem is also developing, with the launch of tokenized IP assets and financing biotech projects through DAO mechanisms. BIO remains the central currency for staking, governance, and access to new scientific initiatives. If several DAO projects in 2026 show real results, the demand for BIO could significantly increase.
The prospects for BIO are directly dependent on the success of the DeSci model: in the case of mass adoption, the project could receive a significant fundamental upgrade. However, if interest in the bio-/science blockchain intensifies — BIO is capable of becoming one of the key tokens in the new niche.
🔥 THE CRYPTO MARKET CRASHED ON DECEMBER 1: WHY DID IT HAPPEN AND WHAT TO EXPECT NEXT?
On December 1, 2025, the crypto market opened the month with a sharp decline. $BTC dropped to $85–87K, losing more than 5% in a day, while the total market capitalization decreased to approximately $3.04 trillion. Nearly all top coins were under pressure — Ethereum, $BNB , SOL, and other altcoins.
The main reason for today's crash is a mass wave of liquidations, which in just one hour amounted to over $400 million. This triggered an avalanche effect: falling prices led to the automatic closure of long positions, further crashing the market. The second factor is risk-off sentiment in global markets. Investors expect tough decisions from the Fed and are shifting funds into safe assets, avoiding risky instruments like cryptocurrencies. Additional pressure is created by profit-taking after strong growth in the fall.
Forecast: if BTC does not return to the level above $90K, the correction may continue. The $82–84K zone is key support; its breakout would open the way for a deeper decline. At the same time, in the absence of new negative macro signals, a short-term bounce towards $90–94K is possible. The market enters December with increased volatility.
📰 $ACT I: The AI Prophecy shoots up by +15% — what happened and is there a chance for the rally to continue?
On November 30, 2025, the token Act I: The AI Prophecy (ACT) grew by 15%, entering the leaders of daily growth among low-cap AI-narrative projects. The movement looks bright, but does it really signal a new uptrend?
The main catalyst was the teaser for the upcoming story chapter “Act II,” which received significant resonance in the community. The project is building popularity around an immersive AI story, and each narrative update traditionally stimulates demand from fans. The second reason is the increase in activity of NFT collections related to the universe of The AI Prophecy. A brief surge in trading created an effect of instant hype.
The technical factor also played a role: the token broke through local resistance on the 4H chart, activating algorithmic purchases and triggering a quick upward movement. The small capitalization of ACT amplifies such impulses.
Does the growth have continuation? So far, it looks more like a short-term information spike. For a systemic trend, wider updates are needed — the release of the full Act II, partnerships.
Currently, ACT remains a hype-type token capable of moving sharply on news but without a confirmed fundamental basis.
$BTC 🎯 What you need to know about the crypto mega event in December 2025
December this year is indeed rich in important events for the crypto community — conferences, exhibitions, and events that may set the trends for 2026.
Binance Blockchain Week Dubai 2025 — December 3-4, Dubai. The largest event of the year from the exchange, where project founders, investors, representatives of infrastructure platforms, and regulators will gather to discuss the future of digital assets, DeFi, stablecoins, Web3 infrastructure, and regulations.
Bitcoin MENA 2025 — December 8-9, Abu Dhabi. A conference for miners, developers, and businesses around Bitcoin, blockchain infrastructure, and corporate adoption of crypto in the MENA region.
Solana Breakpoint 2025 — December 11-13, Abu Dhabi. The flagship conference of the Solana ecosystem; announcements of new tools, DeFi tokenization, DePIN projects, presentations for investors and developers are expected.
Also noted in the December calendar are several smaller or regional events: for example, conferences in London, Bengaluru, and Brussels dedicated to fintech / Web3 / tokenization.
2025 became the year of meme tokens, where the price moved not by fundamentals, but by virality. The biggest influence had the CZ effect — one hint from him could create a pump wave.
1️⃣ Mubarak ($MUBARAK ) Political memes made the token viral, but the real surge happened after a mention from CZ — this gave a second wave of growth and brought MUBARAK into the trends.
2️⃣ $BSU Political satire that hit during news scandals. Purely narrative coin with quick pumps.
3️⃣ BOB (Build On BNB) Meme of the BNB ecosystem. Demand was formed thanks to the community and the trend “Build On BNB”. Works well on short pumps.
4️⃣ $Ghibli AI art and anime aesthetics created virality on TikTok. Liquidity is weaker, but meme potential is strong.
5️⃣ Broccoli714 Meme from BNB Chain that gained demand after jokes about CZ. Risky, but holds on an active meme community.
Meme coins of 2025 are TikTok, culture, and the influence of key figures. One post from CZ can change everything.
🚨 $DYDX is falling: what is happening with the token and when is a reversal possible?
The cryptocurrency DYDX lost more than half of its value in 2025, and this was due to several critical factors. The strongest blow was the migration to its own blockchain dYdX Chain. The transition caused chaos: some of the old ERC-20 tokens became “stuck” after the bridge was closed, and Binance ceased support for the previous version. This created distrust, triggered profit-taking, and put pressure on the price.
The second blow was prolonged inflation and unlocks that diluted the supply. Despite a 50% reduction in issuance, the market was pricing in risks of future unlocking, while competitors like Hyperliquid were pulling trading volumes. All this was happening against the backdrop of a weak altcoin season, where capital was massively transitioning into BTC.
Nevertheless, DYDX has a chance to reverse the trend. The protocol is already directing 75% of real income to buy back DYDX, and staker rewards are formed from trader fees. The completion of unlocks in 2026, growth in volumes on the new L1, and entry into the US market could trigger a new cycle. If DeFi activates, DYDX has every chance to regain its positions #DYDX #DeFi #Altcoins
🚨 December 2025: The Month of the Largest Token Unlocks of the Year
December 2025 prepares one of the most significant periods of token unlocks in this cycle, which could substantially impact market sentiment. The most attention is drawn to $SUI , MANTA, ALT, $OM , $PLUME , and a number of RWA projects, where the vesting of early investors, teams, and strategic partners is coming to an end.
SUI will release a significant volume of tokens for the team and ecosystem grants, which traditionally creates additional pressure on the price. MANTA is opening a large tranche of tokens for stakers and private round for the second time this year — analysts expect sales to increase in the first days after the unlock. ALT and OM are also entering a phase of noticeable supply increase, which could heighten volatility in conjunction with market risks.
Particular interest is PLUME: after a sixfold decline in the second half of the year, the December unlock will serve as a test of the project's viability and the team's ability to maintain community trust.
December could become the month of "price shocks," but large unlocks often give the market a chance to find a local bottom and create opportunities for long-term entries.
🔥 $TURBO sharply rises: what is behind the jump on November 28, 2025?
On November 28, the cryptocurrency #Turbo (TURBO) burst into the top daily gainers due to a sharp increase in trader interest and a technical breakthrough on the chart. The coin added over 25–30% in a day, updating its local maximum and confidently breaking out of a two-month downtrend.
📊 Technical indicators at the time of growth:
Price: ~$0.00255
Daily maximum: ~$0.00268
Daily minimum: ~$0.00167
24h Volume: sharply increased more than twice
RSI: rose above 62, signaling the formation of a strong bullish momentum
MACD: entered the positive zone — a classic reversal signal
Key support: $0.0019
Nearest resistance: $0.0028 → then $0.0035
🔍 Main reasons for the rise:
Rapid reduction of supply on exchanges and liquidity shortage.
Increase in trading volumes after breaking the trend line.
Renewed interest in the AI meme sector, where TURBO remains one of the most notable tokens.
Return of risk appetite in the market after a local bounce of BTC.
🚀 Forecast: Maintaining volumes and holding the price above $0.0025 could open the way to $0.0035–$0.0042. But meme coins remain highly volatile — thus, the risks are at maximum.
🔮 Cryptocurrency market in December 2025: what to expect for investors?
December 2025 is set to become one of the most intense months for the cryptocurrency market in the last two years. After a series of high volatility in November, the market enters December with mixed sentiments: some investors are anticipating a technical rebound, while others are expecting a prolonged correction. A key factor will be the behavior of $BTC , which holds the support zone but still does not show convincing momentum.
Analysts note that in the first half of December, growth is possible due to the closing of quarterly positions, fund rebalancing, and seasonal liquidity influx. However, the middle of the month may bring a new wave of pressure due to macro data from the US, risks related to the Fed's rates, and a decline in interest in high-risk assets.
Particular attention should be paid to Ethereum and L2 networks, which may show better dynamics due to network activity and updates. In the altcoin segment, we should expect both local breakthroughs in projects with strong fundamentals and deeper declines among hyped tokens that have not yet recovered their capitalization.
Overall trend: December will be a market of selective opportunities rather than mass growth.
