NYE always feels like a special event. We're going to 2022, a year that might not be dominated by covid-19 anymore. I'm always expecting something big to happen to volatility, especially with crypto. Will it pump again? Will it dump? I don't have a clue, but I doubt it stays linear.

By the way is there some kind of VIX index for crypto?

I do not know if you actually follow the news regarding the pandemic but not long ago a new variant of the virus that is believed to be even more dangerous appeared, not only that it seems the current vaccines are not really adequate to fight this new variant, so if anything the year of 2022 seems that is going to be dominated once again by the pandemic, even then the world must keep going so I expect a lot of movement in the markets of altcoins during 2022 as I do not believe the current bull run is over yet.

Spreading faster? Sure, but more dangerous? Haven't heard that yet. People are expecting milder symptoms. And it's true that current vaccines aren't as good against it. But in theory, the mRNA of that variant can easily be turned into a vaccine.

Also heard the US army is creating a vaccine that should cover all variants in one.

So not too worried about the virus, more worried about repeating 2018, as that was a rough year for crypto.
