Everything that surrounds this market is mere speculation, so it is difficult to find a definitive justification for this fall.but since the bitcoin became the property of great whales, they can play with the price of bitcoin in the way that best suits them to keep the money from us small fish.

Other causes of price drops are being manipulated by whales,they are almost responsible of immediately dumping of the price value of potential coin,they are a group of people that have a large percent of a coins volume that manipulated the coin with a smaller total volume.

I analyze a bit of news that has spread about bad bitcoin. This makes investors afraid. Thus the bitcoin value becomes decreased. As we know that bitcoin is a guide to another altcoin. So when bitcoin decreases, altcoin also decreases.

But do not worry, because now all the coins have recovered. and hopefully improve as before.

Altcoins follow bitcoin, as bitcoin is the main trading pair to most altcoins. This is normal to see. The market is pushing through some bumps in the road, allot of FUD the past couple months. But rest assured, big things are coming! With all that being said, HODL!

To me, the decrease of price would came from two reasons: transaction using cryptocurrency has been banned in some countries (Korea, China,...) and year end cut-off of whale.

Many can be a possible reason. And one here is the whales, They are the reason why the prices  of altcoins and bitcoins are falling and rising today. Large amount of Bitcoins their hold. So they can manipulate a Coin too easily.

Its because of profit taking and taxes. The markets are up an extreme amount YOY and over 6 months. They are still up considerably from 3 months ago. Stop worrying and spend this time researching quality coins. I hope some of this junk that has been pushed recently dies and the quality coins rise late spring/early summer.

If you are worried about price fluctuations in alternate investments and new technologies, you should not be investing in them.

In my personal opinion, one of the cause why Bitcoin and Altcoins dropped because of the prices that's so high then people choose to dump because they want to give gifts for their loved ones because this holiday season is very special for all the Christians around the world.

I don't think so because the money for gift is very small amount comparing with Bitcoin's value.

Do you give a fancy car for your family's holiday present?

It doesn't have any effect.

This is a result of the great volatility that exists in the crypto market. In a way, the fall in the market was healthy because it will allow crypto to grow again with more strength and consistency when the downward trend of the market reverses

Almost all the altcoins (and bitcoin too) went down alot yesterday. Does anybody have a clue what caused this major drop?
The depreciation of the Crypto-currency exchange rate at the end of December last year, which actually lasts about two months, is caused by several reasons. First of all, the December sharp increase in the bitcoin rate to $ 20,000 and caused the same sharp correction of its rate. After bitcoin, the altcoyins also fell in price. Secondly, the crypto currency can not constantly grow in price, because of its volatile nature, it constantly alternates its ups and downs. After such a rapid price increase, its fall is already logical and predictable. Thirdly, as practice has shown in recent years, at this time the crypto currency is always subject to a seasonal decline, so a general decrease in prices at this time for the crypto currency is already natural.

Which causes all prices to fall :

-.The first cause is the statement of South Korean Government Plans to Ban Crypto Trade. It is known that the cryptocurrency trade in south korea reaches 20-30% of the overall coin trade worldwide. So with the government's threat to ban Crypto trade there raises investor concerns and immediately withdraws their investment.
-.The second cause is, in line with South Korea, China is also taking a similar step where Chinese officials take step by step to limit the current criptocurrency trade is banned in China's exchanges.
-. Statement of Warren Buffet stockmakers who declare that the future of a bitcoin will end in a bad end, shortly after, bitcoin prices gradually decline.
-. There are rumors about the future of crypto which is considered bleak and vulnerable to various criminal acts such as theft of funds by hackers, money laundering by corruptors, global gambling, scam-tipped HYIPs, Ponzy (eg Bitcoinnect scam) other.

I think there are many factors that make altcoin and bitcoin the price down. not just a factor from within the altcoin developer, factors from the outside can also affect.

the big factor that caused the price is down or up is from the people itself and the panic from the people. once the price is getting down, they are fast selling the coin without thinking the price will increase back. and if the price is getting up, they make fast buy and makes the price jumps to higher and this is happening in anytime especially if there is a pump group that gives information that they will make a pump for a coin. but the other that will cause the price is up and down is from the news that release in out there and attract people to take the action in the market.

Crypto Market is a very volatile market, It could be as high as it could be now and as low as it wants the next minute. It has many factors why. One big factor is the FUD (Fear, Uncertainty, Doubt) of the market investors. The only thing we could do is to HOLD our positions and hope that it could go high again.

Bitcoin is the first cryptocurrency and no doubt about it that bitcoin is the king of all crypto's. If bitcoin value price goes down altcoins also drops. Bitcoin facing so many issues but still standing and recovering. Some countries bans bitcoin by their authorities and that is the ultimate cause of bitcoin's fall. So many negative issues that makes people think that bitcoin is illegal and could gone forever. That's why many investors are afraid and panic selling occurs (FUD). Bitcoin is the face of cryptocurrency if bitcoin falls altcoin falls also.

I think this is happening because of the bad news for the crypto world, and the price of altcoin falls due to the decline of bitcoin and eth prices, we pray there is more good news in the world of crypto so that its price will rise again

The price drop is because the fake news scares the newbies, they will sell their bitcoins, so it will continue to fall.

Nothing unusual. It's always like that.

Basically bitcoins and most altcoins have what we consider strong direct relationship, that is when bitcoin price drops usually altcoins also follow. The price drops are usually driven by investors letting go (usually panic selling) of their holdings or digital assets, triggered by attack to bitcoins. These attacks are in the form of negative feedback and detrimental news regarding bitcoin. although prices always exhibit oscillating behavior.

But for now, everything has turned back to normal and prices are starting to recover.

I do hope it recovers very soon. I miss seeing BTC at $11k and ETH at $1k. I do hope that the speculations of many regarding the end of first quarter will be a good month for crypto currencies to rise their values.
