On-chain data insights
Exchange liquidity changes

Whale and retail behavior
Whale movement:
On December 4-5, single-day outflow exceeded 33,000 BTC, showing large holders withdrawing coins to self-custody
On December 1, after a peak inflow of 47,930 BTC, it quickly reversed, suspected short-term selling pressure release
Hodler patterns:
6 out of 7 days net outflow, hoarding sentiment dominates
Exchange circulating supply continues to decline, reducing potential selling pressure
Reserve USD value fluctuates between $24 billion and $25.9 billion, price adjustments did not trigger panic selling
Market sentiment and public opinion
Mainstream narrative on social media
Short-term cautious faction:
The community questions the recent price drop without obvious negative news, attributing it to coordinated liquidation operations
Technical analysts warn that bear flag tests lower support, short-term volatility risks are increasing
Policy events (interest rate decision) approaching are seen as volatility catalysts
Long-term optimists:
Institutional adoption milestones (state-level reserves, mainstream company recommendations) are believed to bring continuous capital inflow
Historical pullbacks are framed as normal phenomena within bull market cycles, often signaling a prelude to upward movement
Famous hodlers (like Michael Saylor) continue to advocate for a strategy of holding through cycles
Key opinion leader viewpoints
Technical faction (Rekt Capital):
Emphasizing that the degree of resistance level rejection is weakening, support zone is strengthening, may break through the consolidation range
Questioning the integrity of the cycle but maintaining objectivity, without emotional bias
Macro faction (Mister Crypto):
Believing that despite favorable economic data, panic sentiment is still fermenting
Expecting macro liquidity changes and a decline in Bitcoin's dominance will trigger a relief rebound
Fundamental faction (Vijay Boyapati):
Firm long-term belief, viewing current FUD as a precursor to bottoming
Emphasizing the transformative significance of institutional platform adoption on the adoption curve
24-48 hour outlook
Scenario analysis
Bearish scenario (probability 60%):
Trigger condition: Drop below $89,342 (4-hour lower Bollinger band)
Target: Test $88,500 support cluster, in extreme cases probe down to $87,987
Driving factors: 4-hour MACD negative divergence continues, derivative positions decrease, short-term selling pressure not fully released
Bullish scenario (probability 40%):
Trigger condition: Hold above $89,525 and break through $90,000 resistance
Target: Rebound to the $90,000-$91,000 options pain point range
Driving factors: 1-hour/daily MACD divergence realization, on-chain net outflow supports the bottom, RSI oversold correction
Key observation indicators
Short-term bull-bear dividing line:
$89,342: 4-hour lower Bollinger band, if lost, will accelerate downward exploration
$89,525: Short liquidation starting point, recovery will trigger a rebound
Volume matching:
Current 24-hour transaction: $49.89 billion, need to break through $90,000 with volume to confirm reversal
If it drops below $88,500 with low volume, it will continue to weaken
Risks and opportunities
Main risks:
Decline in derivative positions suggests momentum exhaustion, lack of funding to push up
Social sentiment differentiation, market manipulation narratives weaken retail confidence
The gap between SMA50 ($99,499) and SMA200 ($109,267) is large, technical pressure is heavy
Potential opportunity:
On-chain hoarding signals are clear, supply-side contraction is a long-term benefit
Oversold indicators combined with MACD divergence, technical rebound window opens
The maximum pain point for options is at $90,000-$91,000, institutions have the motivation to push prices toward this range
Operational advice
Aggressive strategy:
Attempting to bottom in the $88,500-$88,874 support range, with stop loss set below $87,900
Target looking at $90,000-$91,000, risk-reward ratio about 2:1
Conservative strategy:
Wait for the price to recover above $90,000 and stabilize before going long, confirm reversal signals
Or wait for a drop below $88,500 to position near $87,987, aiming for a deep rebound
Defensive strategy:
Hodlers can continue to hold, on-chain data supports long-term allocation logic
Short-term traders are mainly waiting for a clearer direction before re-entering
