Market Cap & Trend:
Crypto market cap running ~ $3T today.
BTC dominance ~57–58%, ETH ~11–12%.
📉 Short-Term Price Action
BTC has been pulling back from recent highs near ~$90K+ and sitting in the $86K–$90K range — reaction partly due to regulatory uncertainty and ETF outflows.
Outflows from BTC ETFs (~$350M) signal cautious sentiment even though BTC isn’t collapsing — suggests bulls still holding near support.
ETH also shows downside pressure and lower highs in recent sessions.
ETH/BTC ratio indicates some weakness in Ethereum relative strength versus Bitcoin.
🔍 What Traders Are Watching
BTC Key Levels
Support: $85K – $87K (near current range)
Resistance: $90K+ zone
A break above $90K with volume could signal short relief rally; a drop below $85K may push deeper pullback.
ETH Key Levels
Support near $2,900 – $3,000
Resistance near $3,200 – $3,300
Market breadth still tilted toward consolidation/slow down rather than a strong breakout.
🧠 Technical & Sentiment Signals
Volatility high — recent swings are strong on both sides.
Sentiment:
Regulatory developments (like U.S. crypto bill delays) are influencing risk appetite.
Traders reducing risky exposures at current range.
ETH Technical Outlook: Some Binance technical averages (RSI / moving averages) may signal neutral / slight bearish bias around key MA’s — waiting for clear direction.
🚀 Potential Scenarios
Bullish Case
BTC reclaiming above $90K on strong volume triggers a short squeeze toward $95K+.
ETH breaks $3.3K resistance with renewed buyer interest.
Bearish Case
A drop below $85K BTC / $2.9K ETH accelerates bearish pressure → short-term correction extended.
