Crypto Trends December 1 – 7, 2025: Market Analysis and Performance
The crypto market revival took lower than per week. Unfortunately, the bears returned even stronger than before and pushed all cryptocurrencies into the red. Most coins lost every little thing they’d gained within the last uptrend, some lost much more. The market capitalization has now fallen by over $130 billion and is now on the verge of falling below the $3 trillion threshold again.
Bitcoin has been steadily declining over the past five days and at last broke below the $90,000 support level. The king of cryptocurrencies is facing massive liquidations, driving its value further into bear territory. Another attack on the $100,000 mark seems unlikely before the tip of the 12 months.
Despite a largely positive week, Ethereum is currently trading around $3,000. Unfortunately, the recent market downturn has caused ETH to present up its recent gains. The second cryptocurrency is preparing for an additional decline below $3,000, which is more of a comfort zone for Ethereum.
Altcoins and DeFi
Most altcoins are trading within the red, although there are notable exceptions. For example, XRP is down 8%, Solana is down 6%, Cardano is down 3%, Avalanche is down 7%, Sui is down 1%, Chainlink is up 1%, and TRON is up 1%. On the opposite hand, Zcash is down 23%.
There were also some interesting developments with memecoins. For example, Dogecoin is down 8%, Shiba Inu is down 4%, and Pepecoin is down 7%.
The Metaverse sector has also seen notable moves over the past week. For example, Axie Infinity is down 7%, The Sandbox is down 11%, and Floki is down 7%. Meanwhile, Decentraland is down 11%, Render is down 14%, and ApeCoin is down 15%. Stacks decreased by 9% and virtuals decreased by 11%. Meanwhile, MultiversX rose 6%.
The DeFi sector contributed nearly $0.5 billion to the overall protocols value (TVL), bringing the overall to roughly $120.26 billion.

Crypto market forecast for next week
The crypto market is back under the control of the bears, leaving little hope for a brand new uptrend before the tip of the 12 months. Most cryptocurrencies have struggled to take care of their recent hard-earned gains, but to no avail. The traditionally bearish December is taking its toll in the marketplace and keeping sentiment generally negative.
