📉 Downside — rough start to December

On December 1, 2025, Bitcoin dipped sharply, trading around US$85,900 — below the $86,000 mark. 

That represented a 5–7% drop in 24 hours, as $BTC failed to hold above ~$90,000. 

The fall was driven by several headwinds: profit-taking after a strong October all-time-high, heavy leverage unwind (leading to liquidations), and broader macroeconomic uncertainty. 

Some technical analysts pointed out that BTC had recently broken down from a bullish channel — signaling downward pressure and raising the risk of further declines, potentially toward lower support zones. 

So early December began with volatility and negative sentiment — for many, a “risk-off” mood in crypto.

📈 Some rebound and stabilization

On December 2, 2025, BTC showed a modest recovery, hovering around US$87,000 after earlier intraday lows near $84,000.

This rebound likely reflects a short-term bounce: after a heavy sell-off, oversold conditions and perhaps bargain interest kicked in, tempering the initial panic.

However, the broader outlook remained cautious: many analysts warned that without a strong catalyst, the rebound might be fragile, and BTC could still face resistance or more downward pressure if negative macro or liquidity events emerge.

🧠 What to Watch This Week

Macro & institutional flows: Broader financial market sentiment — interest rates, global risk factors, institutional appetite for crypto — will continue influencing BTC’s trajectory.

Support test vs. rebound attempt: Whether Bitcoin holds above mid-$80Ks support or drops below will likely define if the market consolidates or falls further.

Market sentiment & liquidity: Watch for liquidation events, ETF flows (in/out), or major news that could trigger sharp moves again.
