BTC Overview CoinMarketCap

(Source: CoinMarketCap)

Its price is currently moving between $100,412 and $103,478 and is showing signs of a slowing in momentum. The effects of its earlier rally that led to its ATH have cooled down, and traders are now more cautious.

For now, the short-term outlook looks bearish. The $100,000 level is a key support. If it holds, BTC might stabilize or bounce back from here. However, if it breaks below this level, prices could fall further, possibly towards $94,000, depending on how the market condition worsens.

To turn bullish again, BTC needs to break above the $110,000 – $112,000 resistance zone. Without that, it may continue to move sideways or drop.

Hanging by a thread

BTC is trading right on the edge of key support at $100K.

Selling pressure is clearly dominating, while buyers are struggling to keep the price afloat. Every dip below $100K gets bought up fast ,,but those rebounds look weak.

Beyond the short-term ups and downs, BTC’s fundamentals remain solid and its long-term outlook looks promising. A lot of risky speculation has already been cleared out of the market, reducing the risks of big price drops.

Moreover, institutions and big investors continue to see BTC as a safe alternative to traditional assets.

Financial advisers and institutions are scooping up BTC at low prices through ETFs like iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT), Fidelity Wise Origin Bitcoin Fund (FBTC), and Grayscale Bitcoin Trust (GBTC).

. It broke below its key support at $3,400 even though whales were buying aggressively.

Sellers outnumbered buyers at key levels, leading to its price breaching the key support. Its price action tried to test the $3,415 level, but was rejected, from where it quickly dropped to $3,400.

As the price was falling, whales bought the dip. They scooped up about 394,682 ETH worth $1.37 billion between $3,247 and $3,515.

Since then, ETH has faced issues climbing back to $3,350 and has come down to where it’s currently trading at $3,232.

On the technical side, ETH’s network is still strong as it recently hit a record of 24,192 transactions per second. But daily active users are down by 24% since August this year.

$ETH just hit a record 24,192 TPS, powered by Layer 2 Lighter, which has been consistently sustaining ~4,000 TPS since launch.

$1.5M BTC? Cathie Woods Revises Her Prediction

By Arijit Mukherjee

ARK Invest CEO, Cathie Wood, has revised her ultra-bullish BTC price prediction of $1.5 million to $1.2 million. The reason for a revision in price is stablecoins that have managed to steal BTC’s thunder.

Stablecoins like USDT and USDC have gained traction, especially in emerging markets where they are increasingly being used for payments and savings.

Wood confirmed that stablecoins have absorbed some of the growth that was previously expected from BTC.

Still, she remains bullish on the digital gold. ARK’s updated projections show BTC at $1.2 million in a bull case, $600,000 in a base case, and $500,000 in a bear case by 2030.

Green Crypto? Texans Aren’t Buying It

By Arijit Mukherjee

BTC mining companies in Texas are promoting their use of renewable energy sources like wind and solar. They claim that their use of renewable energy stabilizes the power grid and supports the growth of clean energy.

However, local Texans aren’t buying it, and environmental activists are pushing back. They argue that crypto mining operations are noisy, strain infrastructure, and divert green energy from homes and businesses.

Residents of Hood County, Texas, have voted against forming a new town to regulate noise from a nearby Bitcoin mining site.

On the one hand, miners claim that they’re contributing to the state’s energy economy. Critics beg to differ.

They argue that the environmental benefits are overstated and that deals are being made without proper community input.
