Bitcoin briefly slipped below the $100,000 psychological level before reclaiming it, sparking mixed reactions among crypto analysts. “Bitcoin is developing a bearish engulfing weekly candlestick formation,” pseudonymous trader Rekt Capital shared with their 518,900 followers on X in a Dec. 19 post. Bearish Pattern Yet to Be Confirmed Rekt Capital noted that the potential downtrend is not yet set in stone. “There are still a few days until the end of the week to ‘fully confirm’ the downtrend, and ‘lots can change’ in the meantime,” they stated. “Technically, this is still a dip until Weekly levels are confirmed as lost,” they added. Between 2 and 3 am UTC on Dec. 19, Bitcoin briefly dipped below $100,000 for the first time since Dec. 13, reaching a low of $99,047, according to CoinMarketCap. This dip occurred amid a broader crypto sell-off following the U.S. Federal Reserve’s announcement of a 25 basis point rate cut and hints at fewer rate cuts in 2025 than initially anticipated. Not Everyone Is Concerned Some traders downplayed the dip. “This pullback is pretty normal for Bitcoin. We’ve had 8 of them since October,” Bitcoin Archive commented on X. “If you’re selling your Bitcoin in reaction to what the Fed said today, you have no idea what you own,” added crypto commentator James Lavish. Volatility Is Part of Price Discovery Bitcoin reached $100,000 for the first time on Dec. 5, driven by ETF demand, the upcoming April halving, and Donald Trump’s election victory. Rekt Capital reminded traders that volatility is natural in this phase. “Technically, it is Week 7 in Price Discovery, which historically meant that BTC corrections occur around this time,” they said. While some see such dips as “flash crashes,” Rekt suggested the correction could extend into next week, adding, “We know that Week 7 and Week 8 in Price Discovery have historically been corrective weeks.”

Fartcoin in a month outperforms Nvidia stock in a year

Back on November 20, semiconductor leader Nvidia (NASDAQ: NVDA ) released its Q3 FY 2025 earnings report . It showed that, like in most recent quarters, the Jensen Huang -led venture saw meteoric growth and expansion. However, the markets were not satisfied. Nvidia stock has been on a pretty lengthy and strong rally for two years now — and after such impressive capital appreciation, it becomes increasingly hard to impress investors , who cannot be blamed for locking in their profits. On a year-to-date (YTD) basis, NVDA stock has seen prices increase by 163.07% to $130.28 at press time. NVDA stock price YTD chart.

While leading digital assets saw huge gains, altcoins and, in particular, meme coins , are the biggest winners of this surge thus far. The disparity between the returns of even the strongest equities and humorous cryptocurrencies can be quite staggering. Case in point — over the last 30 days, Fartcoin (FARTCOIN) has outperformed Nvidia’s yearly returns — and the gains aren’t even particularly close. Let’s take a closer look at how a bit of blue humor blew away the linchpin of the artificial intelligence revolution. Fartcoin’s 275% monthly returns blow away Nvidia’s 163% YTD gains FARTCOIN was actually conceived by Truth Terminal , an artificial intelligence model. Inspired by the AI’s output, enterprising developers created the meme coin — soon enough, people began to send donations to Truth Terminal’s wallet, making it the largest holder of Fartcoin . With each transaction, a ‘gas fee’ is paid — and the sound of flatulence follows suit soon after. Apparently, that was enough to send FARTCOIN prices skyrocketing from $0.2959 to $1.11 — a 275.12% surge in just thirty days that has taken its market cap above the $1 billion mark.

As impressive as this surge has been, traders who are just now catching wind of Fartcoin should exercise caution — after such sudden moves to the upside, meme coins have a tendency to deflate.
