Bitcoin briefly dropped to $24,111 on Binance's $BTC /USD1 pair before quickly rebounding above $87,000.
The price fluctuation was isolated to a stablecoin pair backed by World Liberty Financial and did not affect other major BTC pairs.
Such sudden price changes are often due to thin liquidity and can be exacerbated by fewer active traders during quieter hours.
Bitcoin briefly displayed $24,111 on Binance in a sharp wick on the BTC/USD1 trading pair late Wednesday before snapping back above $87,000 within seconds, according to exchange data. The move did not show up on any other major BTC pairs and appeared isolated to USD1, a stablecoin launched by Trump family-backed World Liberty Financial. The pair later normalized, with bitcoin trading back near prevailing market prices. These sudden “wicks” are typically caused by thin liquidity - or a possible display issue - rather than a broader crash. New or less-traded stablecoin pairs often have fewer market makers quoting tight prices, meaning the order book can be shallow $BTC #USGDPUpdate #USCryptoStakingTaxReview #WriteToEarnUpgrade

BITCOIN si posizionerà come 'top performer' nel 2026 dopo essere stato schiacciato quest'anno, afferma VanEck
Il Bitcoin ha sottoperformato rispetto all'oro e al Nasdaq 100 quest'anno, ma un manager di VanEck prevede un forte recupero nel 2026.
David Schassler, il capo delle soluzioni multi-asset dell'azienda, si aspetta che l'impennata dell'oro continui fino a $5.000 il prossimo anno mentre la "devalutazione" fiscale accelera.
Il Bitcoin seguirà probabilmente la rottura dell'oro, spinto dal ritorno della liquidità e dalla domanda a lungo termine per asset rari.
Il Bitcoin $BTC $87.231,21 ha deluso gli investitori quest'anno, rimanendo indietro sia rispetto all'oro che all'indice azionario tecnologico Nasdaq 100, nonostante le aspettative che avrebbe beneficiato dalla svalutazione della valuta fiat.
Ma secondo un manager di VanEck, il più grande asset cripto potrebbe prepararsi a un grande recupero il prossimo anno.
Il Bitcoin sta laggando rispetto all'indice Nasdaq 100 di circa il 50% dall'inizio dell'anno, e questa dislocazione lo prepara a essere un top performer nel 2026," ha detto David Schassler, capo delle soluzioni multi-asset di VanEck, nell'outlook appena pubblicato per il 2026.
Mentre la debolezza di quest'anno riflette un appetito per il rischio più mite e una liquidità stretta, la tesi per il bitcoin rimane intatta, ha scritto Schassler. "Man mano che la devalutazione [svalutazione della valuta] aumenta, la liquidità ritorna e il BTC storicamente risponde in modo deciso," ha aggiunto.
Abbiamo comprato," ha detto.
La tesi più ampia di Schassler si concentra su una potente combinazione di devalutazione monetaria, trasformazione tecnologica e ascesa di asset durevoli. Il gestore patrimoniale sostiene che finanziare passività future e ambizioni politiche dipenderà sempre più dalla stampa di denaro, spingendo gli investitori verso riserve di valore scarse, come oro e bitcoin. $BTC #BinanceAlphaAlert #BTCVSGOLD
BILAL Bin SAQIB, the head of Pakistan’s newly established virtual assets regulator, has come under criticism after publicly advising citizens to ‘watch videos’ to buy Bitcoin, even as millions of Pakistanis remain exposed to unregulated peer-to-peer crypto markets.
“I am not a financial advisor, but if you still want to buy Bitcoins. There are multiple videos through which 30-40 million people have started buying digital assets. So, you should go in the same way,” said Saqib, in a recent interview with a private news channel.
BITCOIN gets 'base case' price target of $143,000 at Citigroup
The Wall Street bank said its bitcoin forecast relies on further crypto ETF inflows and a continued rally in traditional equity markets.
Citigroup forecasts a $143,000 bitcoin within the next 12 months.
What to know:
Citigroup's base case for bitcoin (BTC) is a rise to $143,000 in 12 months.
Analysts highlight $70,000 as key support, with the potential for a sharp rise due to revived ETF demand and positive market forecasts.
The bear case sees bitcoin falling to $78,500 amid a global recession, while the bull case predicts a rise to $189,000 due to increased investor demand.
Amid the recent bearish price action, the headline on Citigroup's 12-month outlook for bitcoin $BTC $87,964.08 of $143,000 — or about 62% upside from the current $88,000 — will raise some eyebrows.
“We forecast increased adoption of digital assets, spurred by potential U.S. digital-asset legislation in the second quarter, with bitcoin likely ranging into the new year around $80,000-$90,000 user-activity values,” Citi analysts Alex Saunders, Dirk Willer and Vinh Vo said in their joint report. $BTC #USNonFarmPayrollReport #TrumpTariffs #BinanceBlockchainWeek #USJobsData #WriteToEarnUpgrade
XRP vs. BITCOIN: Which Cryptocurrency Will Perform Better in 2026
A growing acceptance of crypto next year could lead to a surge in price for the world's top digital currency, Bitcoin.
XRP, being much smaller in market cap and with tremendous growth opportunities ahead, could be overdue for a strong rally.
10 stocks we like better than Bitcoin ›
Both digital assets have been struggling of late, but both also have catalysts that could help drive their prices higher next year.
XRP (XRP+1.39%) and Bitcoin (BTC+0.02%) are two of the most popular cryptocurrencies in the world. Bitcoin remains far and away the most valuable, with a market cap of about $1.7 trillion. XRP at around $116 billion is just a small fraction of that, but that's still large enough to make it the fifth-largest cryptocurrency in the world today.
Despite their popularity, neither coin has been performing particularly well this year. Bitcoin has fallen sharply since reaching an all-time high back in October. XRP, which also started out promising, looks to be on track to finish the year in the red.
Heading into 2026, which of these cryptocurrencies looks to be a better buy: Bitcoin or XRP?
The case for Bitcoin
Bitcoin is the king of the crypto universe, and it enjoys a huge advantage in having strong name recognition that makes it well-known, even among people who don't buy and sell crypto. For anyone new to crypto, they might not know what XRP is or the thousands of other cryptocurrencies out there, but they will probably have heard of Bitcoin.

CHANGPENG ZHAO, co-founder of Binance, has been praising President Donald Trump's crypto stance and signaling enthusiasm for the US market.
Binance has been exploring ways to reboot its American affiliate, Binance.US, including a potential recapitalization that could reduce Zhao's majority stake.
ZHAO has said it is his intention to help make America the capital of crypto, but Binance faces challenges in the US, including navigating state licensing regimes and addressing concerns about its past regulatory issues.
Changpeng Zhao has unfinished business.
The billionaire co-founder of Binance has stepped back into the spotlight, praising President Donald Trump’s crypto stance at every turn, and signaling enthusiasm for the US market where the firm he helped create is now weighing a comeback.
Recently pardoned by Trump, Zhao holds no official role at the crypto exchange any longer, but remains an influential voice. Zhao has cast the US as central to the industry’s future — and therefore, implicitly, to Binance’s.

The firm has been exploring ways to reboot its American affiliate, Binance.US, including a potential recapitalization that could reduce Zhao’s majority stake, according to people familiar with the matter. His role as a controlling investor has been a major hurdle for expanding in key states, they said. The discussions remain fluid.
“It is my full intention to help make America the capital of crypto,” Zhao said at Binance Blockchain Week earlier this month, calling it “an emerging land for us.” $BTC $ETH #TrumpTariffs #USNonFarmPayrollReport #USJobsData
WHY PAKISTANIES🇵🇰 should consider buying cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin in 2026 🇵🇰
Cryptocurrencies especially Bitcoin are still risky, but in 2026 many Pakistanis may consider them as part of a smart, modern financial plan. The key word is consider: crypto isn’t a “get rich quick” thing, and it shouldn’t replace savings, education, or emergency money. But here are solid reasons people might look at it.
Where to buy.
If you’re eligible (18+) and crypto is legal/allowed where you live, consider using well-known, reputable exchanges that have strong security features (like 2FA), clear fees, and a history of reliability. Avoid random links, “guaranteed profit” groups, and unofficial sellers.
https:www.binance.co
1) A hedge idea against a weakening currency
When a local currency loses value over time, people naturally look for alternatives to protect purchasing power. In Pakistan, many families already do this through gold, dollars, or property. Bitcoin is sometimes viewed as another option because it’s global and not controlled by one country.
2) Diversification: not putting everything in one place
A lot of financial damage happens when someone keeps all money in one asset (only cash, only property, only stocks, etc.). Crypto can be a small part of a diversified portfolio. Even 2–5% (for people who can afford risk) can add exposure to a different type of asset.
3) Easier access to global finance and digital tools
Crypto is “internet money.” For young Pakistanis who work online, freelance, build apps, or follow global tech trends, learning how crypto wallets, blockchains, and exchanges work can be useful. Even if you don’t invest heavily, understanding it can be a valuable skill.
4) Bitcoin’s “scarcity”
Bitcoin has a limited supply (there’s a maximum number that will ever exist). Some investors like this because it’s different from regular money, which governments can print more of. That scarcity idea is one reason people see Bitcoin as a long-term store-of-value candidate
BINANCE OFFERS $5 MILLION whistleblower reward as it cracks down on fraudulent token 'listing agents'
Quick Take
Binance has warned against fraudulent third-party “listing agents” and offered a reward of up to $5 million for evidence of fake intermediaries.
The update comes as Binance faces heightened scrutiny of its listing practices following recent insider trading concerns.
Binance issued a transparency update on Wednesday outlining how projects must navigate its listing process across Alpha, futures, and spot markets, while warning that individuals claiming to act as third-party “listing agents” are engaging in fraudulent activity.
In the notice, Binance emphasized that token teams must submit listing applications exclusively through its official channels, stressing that the company does not authorize external brokers or intermediaries to negotiate or influence listing outcomes.
The exchange said it has seen repeated instances of individuals or firms misrepresenting themselves as Binance-connected facilitators, often while charging fees or soliciting payments from project founders.
To counter this, Binance published its formal listing framework and urged projects to report any claim of a Binance representative outside its application portals. The crypto exchange giant also said it has blacklisted multiple parties after an internal audit and is offering a reward of up to $5 million for verifiable evidence of wrongdoing, according to an official blog post.
Binance named seven entities and individuals now on its internal blacklist, including BitABC, Central Research, May/Dannie, Andrew Lee, Suki Yang, Fiona Lee, and Kenny Z. $BTC $ETH $BNB #USNonFarmPayrollReport
ETHUSDT $ (1D) has confirmed a bullish shift in market structure following a clean breakout from the descending (bearish) channel, signaling the end of the corrective phase and the start of a potential trend reversal. This breakout acts as a structural CHoCH, indicating buyers have regained control on the daily timeframe. Price has now retraced into the last buying zone between $2,808 – $2,708, which also aligns with the highlighted entry zone around $2,900 – $2,708. This area represents the final demand before the impulsive bullish move and is a critical zone for continuation. The current reaction suggests buyers are actively defending this region. As long as ETH holds above this demand zone and does not accept below it, the bullish bias remains intact. Upside targets are positioned at $3,500 (Target 1) as the first major resistance and $4,608 (Target 2) as the higher-timeframe expansion target. A decisive breakdown and acceptance below $2,408 would invalidate this bullish setup and open the door for a deeper retracement. This demand zone will be the key decision point for whether Ethereum continues its bullish expansion toward higher resistance levels. Proper risk management is essential around this area.. $BTC $ETH $BNB #USNonFarmPayrollReport #BinanceBlockchainWeek
Communication Tips by CZ (Dec 2025) Be efficient. Don’t be polite. Get to the point. I hate formalities. I don’t chit chat. You won’t get a response if you say any variation of the following: “Hi”, then nothing “How are you?” “Good day to you sir!” “Merry Xmas, Happy New Year, Happy Birthday, etc” “Can we have a meeting?” (no agenda given) “Let’s discuss an important partnership” (no specifics) “Want to introduce you to XYZ (someone important)” (no specifics) You may be referred to this article. I am efficient with my time, even if you may consider it impolite (apologies). So, please be direct and tell me: I am ___ I need ___ (or) I can provide ___ If your first message is too long (more than one mobile screen with large fonts for an elderly like me), it will likely be skipped. A few tips: For pitches, go to www.yzilabs.com For listings, apply online at www.binance.com For buying/selling large amounts of crypto, please contact Binance OTC desk. Don’t ask open ended questions, I usually won’t know the answer. Don’t ask me to interact with some meme coin. For most things, going through me is slower. I don’t do much. I am mostly just a router, a slow one. Hope you are not offended. Let’s communicate efficiently. Cheers, CZ $BTC #USNonFarmPayrollReport

ISLAMABAD: Pakistani financial-technology platform JazzCash has signed a memorandum of understanding with global cryptocurrency exchange Binance in the United Arab Emirates to explore cooperation on virtual-asset use and education in Pakistan, the company said on Wednesday.
The agreement sets a framework for discussions on awareness campaigns and future digital-asset products that would comply with Pakistan’s emerging crypto regulations. The move signals growing engagement between global blockchain companies and Pakistani fintechs as authorities shift toward formal licensing of the sector.
Pakistan has spent the past year drafting rules to regulate the fast-expanding market for digital coins and tokens, requiring virtual-asset service providers to obtain government approval. Officials say the transition is aimed at curbing money-laundering and terror financing risks, boosting transparency and encouraging responsible innovation. $SOL $XRP $BTC
Price zone: BTC is trading around the $89k–$92k range and showing instability amid wider risk-off trading and macro pressures. Recent weekend moves have seen volatility between roughly $89,000 and $93,000 USD. Analytics Insight
Sentiment: The market sentiment is cautious to bearish, with indicators like the Fear & Greed Index in “extreme fear” territory, suggesting traders are risk-averse right now. DigitalCoinPrice
Range-bound structure: Most analytical models expect BTC to remain range-bound today roughly between $89,000 — $91,700, with resistance near $94k and support near $80–85k in the near term. MidForex+1
📊 Technical Signals
⚠️ Bearish / Caution
BTC is trading below key moving averages (50 & 200 DMA) — generally a bearish signal. DigitalCoinPrice
Sentiment indicators still lean bearish, and volatility remains high, making short-term predictions less certain. DigitalCoinPrice
Failure to reclaim $92k+ consistently could keep pressure on downside continuation.
