Bitcoin is experiencing significant fluctuations as it grapples with a recent downturn, with the cryptocurrency dropping by nearly 6% in just the past 24 hours.
Currently trading at around $92,125, Bitcoin has struggled to recover from an intraday low of $91,583. This downturn comes in the wake of Bitcoin’s brief peak just below $100,000 last week, when it reached a new all-time high.
The recent drop in Bitcoin’s price has been attributed to a combination of selling pressure, long-position liquidations, and broader market dynamics. The overall cryptocurrency market has also seen declines, with the dollar index rising by 0.18% as a result of new tariff announcements by US President-elect Donald Trump.
Looking ahead, analysts remain cautiously optimistic. Tony Sycamore, an IG Australia Market Analyst, suggested that this pullback offers a healthy correction for Bitcoin, which had become overbought recently.
Meanwhile, 10x Research founder Markus Thielen maintains a bullish outlook, predicting that Bitcoin will reach $100,000 or more within the next few weeks.
Robert Kiyosaki also weighed in, forecasting a future price of $500,000 based on AI predictions.
Bitcoin is no longer the speculative playground it once was, according to Bitwise CIO Matt Hougan.
After more than a decade of silence, two early Bitcoin wallets have suddenly sprung to life, moving thousands of BTC in a move that caught the attention of blockchain analysts and traders alike.
After briefly breaching $97,000, Bitcoin has slipped to around $94,000, retreating from the $98,000 resistance zone as traders brace for potential volatility tied to upcoming macroeconomic announcements.
As countries around the world move faster to integrate digital assets into their financial systems, the United States is keeping Bitcoin at arm’s length—especially when it comes to the idea of holding it in national reserves.
