Today is the last day of December, and tomorrow will be 2026.
Currently, it looks like the December monthly chart will most likely close in the red. Since 2020, even during bear markets, Bitcoin's monthly K-line has never shown four consecutive down months. This means that the monthly K-line for January 2026 is highly likely to close in the green, indicating a bullish January. From a technical perspective, whether it's BTC or ETH, the market has basically fallen to a certain support level, meaning the first phase of the downtrend has already ended. Altcoins have basically fallen as much as they can; 99% of retail investors are already hopeless. Most are afraid to buy the dip or are shorting. At this level, a further drop without liquidity is possible. If it rebounds 30% and then drops again, it will make the bulls think that altcoin season is back, prompting more to buy the dip and go long, which could lead to more opposing orders. Summary: Expect a rebound in January 2026, followed by a decline. The cryptocurrency market should see a wave of Spring Festival trading, so everyone should seize the opportunity.
