News: The crypto market is showing mixed signals on December 24th, 2018. Positive news regarding Facebook's potential digital token and a general year-end rally sentiment are providing some bullish momentum, with Bitcoin showing a weekly gain. However, significant network metric declines (nodes, difficulty) and major layoffs at Bitmain introduce bearish undertones. Institutional adoption news from Stuttgart Stock Exchange is positive, but commentary from SolidX tempering expectations for Goldman Sachs' immediate involvement adds caution. The sharp 11% drop in Bitcoin yesterday is a significant bearish indicator for the immediate short term.

Market Probabilities: 
Bull 40% | Base 30% | Bear 30%

Recommendations: 
Short-term: HOLD
Long-term: BUY
