🛟 CRYPTO MARKET CORRECTION OR DEEPER CRASH _ REASONS
🔷 Crypto market has once again severely blooded with Overall Market Cap at $3.04 Trillion, losing by -2.59 in the last 24 hours. Its 1 Month Massive Decline is about 11.88%.
✴️ Major Crypto Currencies have sharply dipped during last 24 hours: BTC now trading around $89,709 (-2.54%), ETH 3,039 (-4.04%), XRP 2.048 (-1.40%), BNB 883 (-2.10) and SOL133 (-4). BTC broke down its Critical SMAs of 7-day (90,568) and 30-day SMA (93,695). Major AltCoins also broke down their critical support levels.
⚔️ MAJOR REASONS
✅ LIQUIDATIONS. Leverage unwinding of $ 146 Million in BTC in the last 24 hours (Long Positions 129.64 Millions) triggered cascading Sell-off, pushing prices even lower. ETH ETFs also witnessed $75.21 Outflows. Institutions remained CAUTIOUS due to Pre/post FOMC Meetings / Rate Cut Decisions.
✅ BANK of JAPAN'S RATE RISE ODDS. The BOJ's possible rate rise decision of 0.25 to 0.75 increase in bps on December 19 might be a very crucial. It would be the highest rate rise since 1995.
IMPORTANCE: The decision might strengthen Yen and Yields Japan. It might unwind and affect "Yen Carry Trade" through which global investors borrow cheaper Yen for investment in risky assets like Cryptos, especially Bitcoin.
✅ FUD. The recent rise in Confidence and Sentiments have again dampened by the recent Dips and once again FUD dominates the market. CMC Fear and Greed at 21 (Extreme Fear) indicates fragility.
✅ CRYPTO'S CORRELATION WITH STOCKS. Crypto's stronger correlation with the Stocks affects it with their fluctuations.
✅ LIQUIDITY SHRINKING. Institutional hesitation, ETF outflows and Selling Pressure create liquidity thinning in the market, resulting in dips and FUD. $BTC #BTCVSGOLD #BinanceBlockchainWeek #Write2Earn
In both the cases: BTC crossing 93 K or dipping below 85 K, Liquidations of traders are the destiny. Liquidations have made the market riskier and more fragile.

Key TakeawaysETH exchange supply drops to a record-low 8.8%, signaling a potential supply squeezeFusaka upgrade boosts scalability and may attract new developer and user activityWhale leverage positions increase market sensitivity near key Fibonacci support at $3,020 ETH Hovers Around $3,000 as Exchange Supply Hits Decade LowsEther has hovered around $3,000 over the past few days, with 24-hour performance showing a 0.63% rise and a 0.94% weekly gain, despite a negative 9.07% monthly trend. The asset is consolidating near $3,050, unable to push through $3,200 resistance.The standout development is the historic supply contraction. Just 8.8% of ETH now sits on centralized exchanges, levels unseen since 2015, after a 43% decline in reserves since July. Analysts warn that this environment represents Ethereum’s tightest supply conditions ever, with over 43% of ETH locked in staking, DeFi activity, restaking loops, long-term custody, and institutional holdings.Source: GlassnodeThis structural liquidity decline mirrors the conditions that preceded ETH’s 2021 rally, where a supply crunch coincided with +300% upside as buying pressure absorbed thin order books. Fusaka Upgrade Expands Network ScalabilityEthereum’s Fusaka upgrade, activated on December 3, is another tailwind. The introduction of PeerDAS increases data availability by 8x for Layer-2 networks, reducing node storage and transaction costs.Early on-chain data shows rising activity, consistent with patterns observed after past upgrades such as Dencun (2024), which preceded strong bullish momentum as efficiencies improved.A key metric to watch is Layer-2 throughput, with a target of 12,000+ TPS by 2026, a milestone that could redefine Ethereum’s competitive landscape. Whale Leverage Adds Volatility Near Key LevelsWhale activity reveals mixed market sentiment.A large trader opened a 20,000 ETH long at $3,040, with a liquidation threshold near $1,190, signaling aggressive upside conviction. Another whale saw $164,000 in losses on a 7,925 ETH position.Leverage remains elevated, contributing to $295M in liquidations across crypto in 24 hours. This makes $3,036–$3,020 a crucial buffer zone, especially as the 61.8% Fibonacci level sits near $3,020.Analysts warn that dips below this range could trigger cascading leverage unwinds, while stability above it supports a high-confidence bullish structure. Volume Momentum Suggests Hidden StrengthOn-chain observers highlight a bullish signal: the On-Balance Volume (OBV) indicator recently broke above resistance. Despite price rejection, this divergence often signals underlying buying strength.Source: Sykodelic on XOne analyst notes that OBV is “one of the most reliable leading indicators,” adding that current price action looks constructive and may reach higher levels before a deeper pullback. Market Flows: ETFs Soft as Corporations Accumulate ETHSentiment remains divided.Spot Ethereum ETFs posted $75.2M in outflows, continuing a multi-week retreat after $1.4B in outflows in November. Meanwhile, smart money traders on Nansen are net short $21M, adding $2.8M to short positions in the past day.At the same time, corporate accumulation remains strong.BitMine, already the world’s largest corporate ETH holder, added $199M in two days and now controls 3.08% of total ETH supply. The firm has deployed $2.13B over the past month, countering a wider slowdown in digital asset treasury activity.

Bitcoin's Comparison to Historical Tulip Bubble Inappropriate, Analyst Says
According to BlockBeats, Bloomberg's senior ETF analyst Eric Balchunas has expressed that comparing Bitcoin's recent significant price correction to the 17th-century tulip bubble is inappropriate. He highlighted that the tulip mania lasted only about three years and was completely eliminated after a single crash, whereas Bitcoin has survived multiple severe downturns over the past 17 years, often reaching new historical highs.Bitcoin has increased approximately 250% over the past three years, with a notable 122% surge last year. The current decline is seen as a correction of last year's excessive gains. Even if Bitcoin remains stable or slightly declines throughout 2025, its long-term average annualized return is expected to maintain around 50%.Balchunas emphasized that the only similarity between Bitcoin and tulips is their nature as non-productive assets. However, non-productive assets like gold, Picasso paintings, and rare stamps are also regarded as valuable over the long term. The tulip bubble was characterized by a one-time frenzy followed by a collapse, whereas Bitcoin represents a distinctly different asset class.
Global adoption of Cryptos, Stablecoins and their RW Utility indicates bright Future for the Crypto Market. However, global regulatory clarity & User Assets Protection is needed.
According to PANews, analyst @TXMCtrades shared insights on the X platform, indicating that Bitcoin's activity indicators are on the rise, suggesting the current market cycle may not be over. Activity is defined as the sum of all lifecycle spending and holding activities on the blockchain. When tokens are actively traded, activity increases; when tokens are held, activity decreases, adjusted by the token issuance time.
In a bull market, activity typically rises as supply changes hands at higher prices, signaling new capital inflow. As demand weakens, momentum slows, and the indicator declines. It serves as a simplified measure akin to a long-term moving average of on-chain activity.
Despite declining prices, the activity in this cycle continues to rise, indicating a foundational demand for spot Bitcoin that is not reflected in price movements. Although activity generally lags behind price trends and is not a direct market signal, its momentum remains positive from this perspective. Large entities are taking action in the market, though their identities remain unknown.

Quantum Computing's Threat to Cryptography Overstated, Report Finds
According to ChainCatcher, while quantum computers pose a long-term threat to cryptography, the actual risk is often exaggerated. A report indicates that the likelihood of 'cryptography-relevant quantum computers' capable of breaking modern encryption systems emerging before 2030 is very low.Venture capital firm a16z recommends the immediate deployment of hybrid encryption schemes to counter 'harvest now, decrypt later' (HNDL) attacks. However, it suggests that blockchain technology does not need to rush into adopting post-quantum signature technology, as digital signatures are not affected by HNDL attacks.Bitcoin faces unique challenges due to its slow governance mechanisms and the potential abandonment of quantum-vulnerable coins, necessitating early planning for migration paths. Privacy chains, which encrypt transaction data, have a more urgent need for post-quantum protection.The report emphasizes that current security implementations and vulnerabilities are more pressing threats than the distant risks posed by quantum computing. It outlines seven specific recommendations to help the industry address quantum challenges.
Quantum Computers attack are real threat to Bitcoin, proactive securing upgrade measures are vital for its long-term stability & Survival.

Bitcoin Faces Urgent Need for Quantum-Resistant Signatures
According to BlockBeats, a16z highlighted two significant challenges facing Bitcoin in its latest article on quantum attacks. The first issue is governance efficiency, as Bitcoin's upgrade process is notably slow. If the community fails to reach consensus on solutions, contentious topics could lead to disruptive hard forks. The second challenge is the proactive migration issue, where transitioning Bitcoin to quantum-resistant signatures cannot occur passively; holders must actively migrate their assets. This situation implies that a substantial amount of dormant Bitcoin, vulnerable to quantum attacks, will lose protection.
It is estimated that millions of Bitcoin susceptible to quantum attacks could be abandoned, with a current market value reaching several hundred billion dollars.

Bitcoin SOPR Ratio Hits Lowest Level Since Early 2024
According to BlockBeats, CryptoOnchain announced on social media that the Bitcoin SOPR ratio has dropped to 1.35, marking its lowest point since early 2024. As Bitcoin retraced to $89,700, this indicator suggests a complete reset of market profitability. The phase of significant profit-taking by long-term holders is diminishing, indicating that selling pressure is nearing exhaustion.
Historical data shows that when the market cools down, a SOPR ratio decline to such low levels often signals the formation of a local bottom. If a trend reversal occurs at this time, it could lay the foundation for the next healthy upward market movement.
BlockBeats notes that the Bitcoin SOPR Ratio is an advanced indicator in cryptocurrency on-chain analysis. It is derived from the Spent Output Profit Ratio (SOPR) and is primarily used to assess whether the market is predominantly in a profit or loss state, aiding in determining the stage of bull and bear cycles.
