Key Events in the Crypto World
Last week was eventful with significant happenings in the crypto industry. Among the most notable were the approval of the UNIfication proposal, the massive hack of Trust Wallet, and Nvidia’s record deal.
Bitcoin and Market Trends
Bitcoin showed unstable dynamics last week. The price fluctuated between $86,600 and $87,853, experiencing minor fluctuations. CryptoQuant experts predict a possible drop in price to $70,000, and in the long term, to $56,000.
Meanwhile, BitMEX analysts have a more optimistic forecast: they believe that Bitcoin could reach $200,000 by early 2026 due to the unaccounted impact of macroeconomic factors.
“The fundamental factors in the Bitcoin market in 2025 were ideal, and their potential has yet to be fully realized,” said Fong Le, CEO of Strategy.
Throughout the week, several cryptocurrency companies released their forecasts and summaries. In particular, Galaxy Digital emphasized the uncertainty surrounding Bitcoin’s prospects in 2026.
At the same time, asset management companies continue to accumulate Bitcoin. According to VanEck, from mid-November to mid-December, they purchased over 40,000 BTC.
Regulation and International Trends
Last week, several countries announced changes in the regulation of the cryptocurrency market. In particular, Ghana passed a law legalizing cryptocurrencies, while the Philippines tightened control over cryptocurrency exchanges.
In South Korea, there was a proposal to legalize stablecoins to protect the country’s financial sovereignty.
Other Important News
Nvidia struck an unprecedented deal to acquire Groq’s assets for approximately $20 billion. Trust Wallet reported a loss of about $7 million due to a vulnerability in its browser extension.
