With the exception of Ethereum, which seems to have started the year with all guns blazing ahead of the Constantinople fork,
ETH is a pump and dump coin and it only got pumped because of its fork hype and the time was right too since it was dumped hard prior to the small pump (down to $80ish). not to mention that it wasn't "guns blazing" pump either since it was a small pump which couldn't even bring it to $200! and it was killed in its infancy.
it wont surprise anyone that the market analysts SFOX rate crypto as moderately bearish entering 2019.
bearish would have been if price of bitcoin went below $3k not when it is pretty much the same as it was before! fluctuating within the same channels.
