Thursday Crypto Recap, Institutions Are Still Building
Bitcoin moved above $97K and price action stayed calm, but the important signals were underneath the surface. Spot Bitcoin ETFs posted $753M in net inflows, the strongest single-day inflow since October, showing institutions are still accumulating.
At the same time, stablecoin and regulation progress continued: Visa and BVNK launched stablecoin payouts, Pakistan signed an agreement to integrate USD1, Germany’s DZ Bank received approval to launch a crypto platform, and NYSE listed a Chainlink ETF.
This is what “quiet strength” looks like: capital, infrastructure, and regulation moving together.

$SOL is starting to push higher after breaking out of a tight compression zone.
Technical view: an ascending triangle is forming after a long corrective phase. The bias stays bullish as long as price holds above the reclaimed trendline and keeps respecting the rising support.
If SOL slips back below the breakout area and loses trendline support, the upside attempt can weaken and turn into more sideways action.
Bitcoin has reclaimed the $91,200 level after breaking above local resistance.
The key now is whether price can hold and accept above $91.2K, not just wick above it. If support holds, momentum could push BTC toward the $94,000 area. Failure would likely send price back into consolidation.
La liquidità USA annuo su annuo ha iniziato a mostrare una tendenza al rialzo a metà novembre. Solo cinque giorni dopo, $BTC ha segnato il suo minimo locale.
Questo rafforza un principio macroeconomico fondamentale: L'espansione della liquidità spesso precede i ribaltamenti degli asset rischiosi.
Quando l'offerta di denaro cambia, di solito il prezzo reagisce rapidamente.
Spiegazione della mappa termica delle liquidazioni di Bitcoin
La mappa termica attuale delle liquidazioni di $BTC mostra un chiaro squilibrio. Mentre ci sono alcune liquidazioni long raggruppate vicino a 88K, la maggior parte della liquidità delle liquidazioni è posizionata sul lato short sopra il prezzo corrente.
Questo è importante perché i mercati sono spesso attratti da aree con maggiore liquidità. Se il prezzo inizia a muoversi verso l'alto, le posizioni short potrebbero essere costrette a chiudersi, il che può accelerare la dinamica rialzista.
Al momento, questa configurazione suggerisce che la pressione rialzista rimane attiva, poiché i venditori a termine corrono più rischi rispetto ai compratori. Monitorare come il prezzo reagisce in queste zone è fondamentale per comprendere il prossimo movimento.
$BTC is showing very similar price behavior to April 2025: • Breakout structure looks the same • Whales are closing longs • A double-bottom pattern is forming
If history rhymes, this setup could lead to a Q2-2025-style rally.
Il grafico mensile di OTHERS/BTC mostra un chiaro pattern ripetitivo. I precedenti altseason hanno portato a un rialzo esplosivo una volta che la dominanza di Bitcoin è calata.
• 2017: espansione di circa 49 volte • 2021: espansione di circa 67 volte
Al giorno d'oggi, il prezzo sta mantenendo una struttura a lungo termine più alta, suggerendo accumulo piuttosto che distribuzione. Se questa tendenza continua, il prossimo altseason potrebbe essere più grande dei cicli precedenti.
💥 JPMorgan: Crypto Correction Nearing Its Final Phase
JPMorgan analysts believe the recent crypto drawdown is almost complete. ETF flows for Bitcoin and Ethereum are starting to stabilize after early-year outflows.
They describe the move as normal post-rally positioning, not a liquidity crisis. Investors were trimming exposure after a strong 2025 run, not rushing for exits.
Corrections driven by rebalancing usually end faster than those driven by forced selling.
If flows stay stable, attention may soon shift to re-entry instead of risk reduction.
Vitalik Buterin sees Ethereum as infrastructure, not a product.
He often compares it to Linux or BitTorrent, open systems that scale globally without central control. The goal for $ETH is to become neutral, reliable infrastructure institutions can use without trusting intermediaries.
This matters because institutions don’t want hype. They want lower risk, stability, and systems that last.
If Ethereum follows this path, adoption may be slow and quiet, but extremely durable.
Market structure shows how $BTC behaves over time. Higher highs and higher lows signal bullish momentum, while lower highs and lower lows show bearish control.
Trends offer clearer opportunities, while ranges require patience. When structure shifts, it often signals either continuation or reversal.
Polymarket’s refusal to pay out bets on a U.S. invasion of Venezuela has triggered significant backlash. The platform argued the military action in Venezuela did not satisfy the specific contract conditions, leading to millions of dollars in unresolved wagers and criticism from users who believe the event should have qualified.
This episode has renewed debate around prediction market definitions, fairness, and transparency.
📊 Golden Cross vs Death Cross: What Bitcoin History Tells Us
Golden and Death Crosses are simple moving average signals (50 vs 200), often misunderstood as future predictions. In reality, they reflect sentiment after moves already started.
They worked in 2020 and 2024 because structure, volume, and macro aligned. They failed in 2021 when selling was already exhausted.
Best used with market structure, volume, and macro context.
Crypto Market Update 2026 More than $250B has already flowed into crypto this year, led mainly by $BTC and $ETH.
If total market cap manages to break above $3.5T before the end of January, it could open the door for a strong altcoin season, as capital rotates beyond Bitcoin and Ethereum.
2026 is shaping up as a transition year. Bitcoin is increasingly treated as a strategic asset, while stablecoins and real-world asset tokenization continue to grow. At the same time, new altcoin ETFs could bring broader market participation.
The focus may slowly move away from short-term hype toward real use cases and sustainable growth.
Bitcoin volatility has fallen sharply, from around 70% to 45%, and institutions are the main reason. More than 12.5% of BTC is now held by ETFs and corporate treasuries, and many of these holders are selling call options to generate yield.
This strategy increases call supply, pushes volatility lower, and keeps prices more stable. Bitcoin is slowly maturing into a yield-focused institutional asset.
Top Weekly Gainers: Altcoins React to Bitcoin Strength
As Bitcoin traded above $90K, market sentiment turned more positive and altcoins followed. $MYX surged +82%, $PEPE climbed close to +50%, and $CC added around +40%, supported by increasing volume.
This kind of move often appears when capital starts rotating out of Bitcoin into higher-beta assets.
Solana is grinding higher in a clear uptrend, showing strong and controlled bullish continuation near local highs.
Price is holding above EMA 7 / 25 / 99 on the 1H chart after a clean impulsive move from 124. Market structure remains healthy with higher highs and higher lows. Current consolidation just below 133 looks like a classic bull flag.
BREAKING: Bitcoin Prints Second Straight Green Day in 2026
Bitcoin just recorded its second consecutive daily green candle this year, a small but important signal as the market starts to build momentum.
After a long period of consolidation, early strength like this often reflects improving sentiment rather than pure speculation. While it doesn’t confirm a trend yet, it shows buyers are stepping in and defending price.
2026 is just getting started, but early price action suggests this could be a very important year for $BTC if momentum continues.
Bitcoin proved resilience. Ethereum is now proving scalability.
Ethereum’s daily transaction volume has reached a new all-time high, surpassing levels seen during the 2021 NFT and DeFi boom. The 7-day average recently climbed to around 1.87M transactions, well above the previous record.
More importantly, active wallets rose to ~729K, and new address creation exceeded 270K in a single day, the strongest inflow since 2018. Despite higher activity, fees remained relatively stable.
This growth is being driven by real network upgrades and institutional usage such as stablecoins, RWAs, and ETF-related flows, not speculative hype.
Ethereum continues to strengthen its role as core settlement infrastructure.
