Bitcoin climbed $90,000 briefly before dropping down to $87,871. The consensus is that if Bitcoin doesn’t flip $90k convincingly, it risks repeating the 2019 structure. As BTC continues to hover around the $88k mark, many Wall Street analysts are predicting that the Bitcoin “four-year cycle” is breaking. Bitwise CIO Matt Hougan said, “I think the four-year cycle is less important now than it was in the past. We’re not in a four-year cycle anymore. We’re in a 10-year grind upward with strong returns and lower volatility.”
Meanwhile, Solana looks like it wants to fall through the floor. A bearish double-top sits on the weekly chart, and the chain’s on-chain “buzz” keeps fading.
Solana is flashing the kind of setup that wrecks late bulls. Price keeps slipping while the network metrics that usually bail out the narrative head the other way. SOL is trading at around $125.85, down over 12% from its monthly high and nearly its September peak.
DeFi total value locked on Solana dropped to $23.8 billion from $35.1 billion in September, while protocol fees slid from $31 million to $8 million over the same period. Meanwhile, spot Solana ETF inflows cooled significantly – $199.2 million in the first week after launch versus $13.1 million last week, according to SoSoValue data.
Investors are watching SOL’s $120 like a hawk, because if it snaps, the “healthy pullback” talk could turn into damage control fast.
What if $SOL breaks this 125 resistance that has been testing for days

Ethereum’s Staking Queues Just Flipped!
Ethereum is trading quietly near $2,970. While bulls are successfully defending the $2,900 support zone, rally attempts remain capped by descending resistance. We know that ETH must either reclaim key moving averages to trigger a breakout or risk a breakdown into thinner year-end liquidity.

Interestingly, Ethereum’s staking queues just flipped. After six straight months of more validators exiting than entering, inflows finally outpaced exits last weekend. This shift matters! But maybe not for the reason everyone thinks. The entry queue expanded while the exit queue contracted. This created an estimated two-week wait for new validators to join the network. This is the first time since June 2025 that ETH has flowed into staking rather than out of it.
BitMine, which controls around 3.4% of Ethereum’s total supply, scooped up around 70% of the unstaked ETH. That’s roughly 5% of the total supply that changed hands since July 2025.
