Bitcoin pulls back from high levels, triggering a chain of declines; multiple cryptocurrencies drop over 10% in 24 hours.

【Blockchain Rhythm】On December 18th, the crypto market experienced a wave of correction. After Bitcoin surged to the $90,000 mark last night and then pulled back, market risk sentiment sharply increased, leading to a widespread downward trend.

Data shows that the biggest loser was STABLE, which plummeted 23.3% in 24 hours to $0.01. MON followed closely, with a decline of 13.1%, now priced at $0.0183. During this correction, many small and medium-cap tokens were not spared—PUMP dropped 12.7% to $0.002, ZORA fell 12.4% to $0.0458, and BERA also couldn’t escape, decreasing 11.5% to $0.5649.

From the market trend perspective, this decline is directly related to the technical pullback after Bitcoin’s price surge. Profit-taking at high levels caused a decline in overall market sentiment and trading enthusiasm. In the short term, market sentiment recovery may still require observing more fundamental signals.

BTC-0.78%

STABLE2.31%

MON7.89%

PUMP2.35%

Here we go again. Every time BTC surges, there's a wave of sharp declines, and small to mid-cap coins become the scapegoats. Maybe we should just lie low and wait for the sentiment to recover before acting. STABLE dropping 23% is unbelievable; did they reverse the name or something? Haha

Here come again, the tears of the bagholders at high prices --- STABLE drops 23%? This is what they call a stablecoin haha --- Bitcoin hits 90,000 again and runs away, always teasing us like this --- Small and medium-cap coins collectively dump, this is the main force's celebration --- Damn, missed out again... --- Profit-taking traders are fleeing, retail investors are taking the hit, same old story --- PUMP drops 12% and still calls itself PUMP? Laughing to death --- Let's wait and see, how long will the rebound take to come --- This round of adjustment looks like a change of the main players --- Another start of psychological preparation

Here comes again, the bagholders at high levels should be crying --- STABLE drops 23 points? That’s called a stablecoin, hilarious --- BTC surges high and this is what happens, the same routine every time --- Small and mid-cap coins really have no way out, always the first to fall with the trend --- Profit-taking dumps, that’s the reality, don’t expect market support --- Waiting for sentiment to recover? Probably won’t happen --- PUMP cut in half directly, small coins really can’t afford to gamble --- Hitting 90,000 is just an illusion, the truth is only now --- Always say technical retracement, but it ends up like this, hilarious --- Why do some people always hold on stubbornly at high levels, not learning their lesson

Are they trying to cut the leeks again? I've seen Bitcoin drop from $90,000 before, but it can still fall further.

Wait a minute, the 23.3% drop in STABLE seems a bit off... I need to check the on-chain transfer records. Can someone tell me if there were any large movements in whale wallets before this decline? It feels like someone is manipulating behind the scenes. Did it just bounce at the 90,000 level? That's too suspicious. Institutional addresses should be monitored. Basically, big players scoop up the chips and then start dumping. I just want to know who is taking the over now. Small and medium-cap coins are falling so much together? No, there must be a story of capital flow behind this.

Here we go again. Every time Bitcoin drops, the entire market collapses. This time, those small coins are really suffering. They rush to sell at $90,000, typical of the leek-cutting rhythm. STABLE was directly halved. My goodness, is this what they call a stablecoin? Wait, with such fierce profit-taking, it indicates that some people are still escaping at the top. Truly unbelievable. Short-term recovery? I think it will at least consolidate for another week. The market sentiment has collapsed. Those optimistic about the next rebound are all gamblers. Be honest, everyone.

Damn, STABLE was cut in half directly. They're really determined to ruin the market. $90,000 was not maintained, and a bunch of small coins will have to be sacrificed. Making money is really hard. It's the same old trick, pump up and then run, retail investors are the bagholders. Short-term recovery? I doubt it, it depends on whether BTC can stabilize again. The fate of small and medium coins is to follow the trend downward, there's nothing we can do. How many people got liquidated in this drop? Just thinking about it hurts.

Here it comes again. This wave of decline really confused me. STABLE dropped 23 points?? My small position is basically gone. This is the price of the 90,000 threshold. When profit-taking sells off, no one can escape, especially for smaller coins, it's even worse. Wake up, everyone. Don't always dream of rising to the sky. Corrections are normal. We should just eat, sleep, and carry on. I should have run last night. Now it's too late to regret. Wait, could this pullback be a good opportunity to get in again... No, I need to stay calm.
