important events in the crypto world that occur every December 18 from year to year:

2025 – The global market fell sharply due to concerns over the Bank of Japan's interest rate hike and ETF outflows exceeding US$1 billion. Bitcoin was briefly around US$86,000–87,000, Ethereum around US$2,800, and many altcoins dropped by 2–7%.

2024 – Bitcoin reached a new record above US$108,300, but then dropped back to US$104,400. Bloomberg analysts highlighted the potential for ETFs for Hedera (HBAR) and Litecoin (LTC) that may emerge sooner than Solana or XRP.

2023 – no specific data, but usually December 18, 2023 marks the reporting of Binance survey results showing growth in crypto users in the Asia-Pacific region.

2022 – On December 18, 2022, the market was still in a corrective phase post-FTX, with Bitcoin trading around US$16,000–17,000 and Ethereum at US$1,200. Sentiment was still very cautious.

2021 – December 18, 2021, Bitcoin broke through US$50,000 again, triggering market euphoria and a surge in trading volume on Binance as well as the emergence of meme tokens that rose hundreds of percent within hours.

2020 – On that day, Bitcoin was around US$23,000, and the community began discussing "Ethereum 2.0" which was scheduled to launch the first phase by the end of the year.

Every year, December 18 usually becomes a moment for year-end reviews, with market reports, ETF predictions, and significant price movements.
