Santa Claus Rally 2025: Will Crypto Rally Before Christmas?

Santa Claus Rally 2025: Will Crypto Rally Before Christmas?

The crypto market’s recent crash has sent shockwaves through the community, as Bitcoin fell below $90,000 in late November 2025, a huge drop from its October peak of $126,000. The Fear and Greed Index was pushed to a bone-chilling 19, signaling extreme market concern. This chaos raises a question of whether December will continue the decline or recover due to holiday gains. This study by NFTPlazas analyzes CoinGecko’s historical market cap and Bitcoin price data from 2014 to 2025 to assess how Christmas impacts crypto performance. We also surveyed 1,020 American investors to determine their holiday-season trading demand and whether a Santa Claus Rally will return this year. Crypto Santa Claus Rally Has Happened 9 Times in 11 Years Since 2014, total cryptocurrency market capitalization has increased 9 out of 11 times during the post-Christmas period (December 27 to January 2), achieving an impressive 82% profitability rate. Only two years bucked this trend: 2021, when Bitcoin peaked and began its descent into a prolonged bear market, and 2022, when the FTX collapse in November caused systemic contagion that led to lingering market trauma. Still, the long-term trend remains clear: December is historically a bullish month for the industry. Across all eleven years analyzed, December has recorded positive performance with an average gain of 13.16% in crypto market capitalization.  The highlight year remains 2017, when a powerful post-Christmas rally (+11.87%) pushed December’s total market cap increase to an astonishing 94.19%, the strongest holiday surge on record.  Does Bitcoin Go Up or Down During Christmas? Over the past 11 years, Bitcoin has rallied 8 times during the pre-Christmas week (December 19-25) and 6 times during the post-Christmas period. This makes Bitcoin’s behavior slightly different from the broader crypto market, which shows stronger post-Christmas performance. The most dramatic pre-Christmas surge occurred in 2016, when BTC jumped 13.19% in the week leading up to Christmas. This rally signaled the beginning of the historic 2017 bull run and remains the strongest pre-Christmas performance on record. Meanwhile, only 4 years in the last decade (2016, 2018, 2020, and 2023) saw Bitcoin deliver a Santa rally both before and after Christmas.  December as a whole has recorded positive Bitcoin returns with an average gain of 8.25%. The consistent pattern of positive December returns, combined with the strong pre-Christmas tendency, supports the view that BTC often benefits from seasonal inflows, sentiment boosts, and lower liquidity during the holidays. Bullish December returns also have historically signaled the continuation or beginning of major bull markets, while negative December performance often foreshadowed extended bear markets, as seen in 2021 (-17.22%) before the 2022 crypto winter.  How Christmas 2025 Can Affect Crypto? Investor sentiment heading into Christmas 2025 appears overwhelmingly bullish. According to our survey of 1,020 U.S. crypto investors, 57.74% plan to buy crypto this holiday season, more than double the 26% planning to sell. This dramatic disparity between buyers and sellers indicates strong potential for upward price pressure throughout December. When asked which assets they plan to buy, 79% chose Bitcoin and 46% chose Ethereum. Bitcoin clearly dominates as the preferred “holiday buy”, especially for investors viewing December as an opportunity to front-run the Santa Claus Rally. Importantly, 79% of buyers plan to purchase crypto before Christmas, with 34.97% targeting the core Santa Rally window between December 16–25 and 44.31% aiming for the first half of December. This aligns with historical patterns, suggesting that the 2025 Bitcoin Santa Claus Rally will likely begin in the pre-Christmas period. Among those planning to sell crypto in December, the top reasons were year-end profit-taking (45%) and Christmas spending needs (41%). Tax-loss harvesting (17%) and portfolio rebalancing (19%) represent more sophisticated strategies, while 25% of sellers believe crypto will decline in December and want to avoid losses. Interestingly, crypto investors spend dramatically more during the holidays than average Americans. Among those selling crypto to cover Christmas expenses, the average spending reaches $2428, which is 2.7x higher than the $902 average Christmas spending reported by the National Retail Federation. How much will investors sell crypto for during 2025 Christmas? Amount Percentage Less than $1,000 51.09% $1,000 – $2,000 23.36% $2,001 – $5,000 16.42% $5,001 – $10,000 3.65% Over $10,000 5.47% Methodology This analysis examines daily total cryptocurrency market capitalization data from December 1, 2014 to January 2, 2025, sourced from CoinGecko. We calculated percentage changes across three time periods: Full December: December 1 to December 31 Pre-Christmas: The week leading up to Christmas Day (December 19 to December 25) Post-Christmas: The last five trading days of the year plus the first two trading days of the following year (December 27 to January 2) The Santa Claus rally is defined as a period where the percentage change is positive (>0%), indicating upward price movement during these specific timeframes. For Bitcoin-specific analysis, we calculated percentage changes in daily Bitcoin price using the same three time periods. Additionally, we surveyed 1,020 crypto investors in the United States during November 2025 to capture real-time sentiment, trading intentions, and spending patterns during the anticipated Santa Claus rally.

Naver To Acquire Korean Crypto Exchange Giant Dunamu In $10 Billion Deal

Naver To Acquire Korean Crypto Exchange Giant Dunamu In $10 Billion Deal

The post Naver To Acquire Korean Crypto Exchange Giant Dunamu In $10 Billion Deal appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. SOPA Images/LightRocket via Getty Images South Korean search engine behemoth Naver is acquiring Dunamu in a stock swap that values the country’s largest crypto exchange operator at 15.1 trillion won ($10.3 billion). Naver said in a regulatory filing on Wednesday that its payment arm, Naver Financial, will exchange each of its shares for 2.54 Dunamu shares. The transaction, set to be completed in June 2026, values Naver Financial at 4.9 trillion won. Dunamu was at one point valued at $17 billion during the crypto boom of 2021, when Hybe, which manages K-pop powerhouse BTS, acquired a 2.5% stake for about $400 million. As of September, Song Chi-hyung, cofounder and chairman of Dunamu, owns 8,896,400 shares, or 25.52%, in the Seoul-based company. Naver’s acquisition of Dunamu is set to create a fintech heavyweight in South Korea that offers everything from payments, financial services like insurance, to blockchain services as well as crypto and securities trading. Naver Financial, which operates the country’s popular digital payment platform Naver Pay, said it has more than 34 million users and processes over 80 trillion won in transactions a year. Dunamu runs Upbit, which is South Korea’s largest crypto exchange with $1.8 billion digital asset trades over the last 24-hour period, according to tracker Coingecko. The company also offers trading of both listed and unlisted stocks. In a joint press conference at Naver’s headquarters in Seongnam on Wednesday, the companies said the deal aims to combine Naver’s AI infrastructure, Naver Pay’s services and Dunamu’s blockchain technology. Naver added that it will invest 10 trillion won over the next five years to expand South Korea’s AI and blockchain ecosystems. The country is trying to catch up with the U.S. and China in the global AI race with the government’s 10.1 trillion won investment plan for 2026. South…

ETH Strategy will launch a 2-month STRAT linear unlocking program on November 29th, and will soon introduce lending products.

ETH Strategy will launch a 2-month STRAT linear unlocking program on November 29th, and will soon introduce lending products.

PANews reported on November 27th that the Ethereum treasury protocol ETH Strategy announced a two-month linear unlocking plan starting November 29th, 2025, involving the distribution of STRAT tokens to early backers "PreSaylors". To address potential market selling pressure, the project plans to use ETH from the treasury to buy back and burn STRAT when its price falls below its net asset value (NAV), thereby reducing the circulating supply and strengthening the economic model. In addition, ETH Strategy will launch a vault lending product two weeks after unlocking, allowing STRAT holders to borrow ETH from their vaults at a discount slightly below NAV, while preserving the token's appreciation potential. The project also offers a one-week limited-time option that allows PreSaylors to redeem 80% of their initial ETH commitment by burning NFTs. It is understood that ETH Strategy previously raised a total of 8,142 ETH through private and public rounds, with the token price being 1 ETH for 10,000 STRAT, and supporters receiving the same lock-up conditions. Previously, it was reported that ETH Strategy partnered with Lido to invest a portion of its treasury funds into stETH to achieve compound interest on ETH returns .
