Bitcoin price correction this week was further supported by fading institutional demand. The SoSoValue chart below shows that spot Bitcoin Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs) recorded a total outflow of $817.87M through Thursday. If these outflows continue and intensify, BTC could see further correction.

Bitcoin Price Fall near $81,000 on the day start of Friday, At the time of writing this Bitcoin is trading near $83,000, Trying to make pullback From the Support zone of $81,000.
Selling pressure is unlikely to ease as the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) remains below its signal line on the daily chart, which would encourage investors to reduce their exposure.
The Relative Strength Index (RSI) at 31 on the daily chart is poised to extend into oversold territory, confirming the bearish thesis. Still, if sentiment improves and bulls buy the dip, a reversal could push Bitcoin above the support-turned resistance at $84,450.

In January 2026, the financial landscape shifted dramatically. While Bitcoin consolidated around a $1.78 trillion market cap, the traditional metals market experienced one of the most violent "flashes" in history. On January 28-29 alone, gold and silver saw an estimated $3.4 trillion in notional value wiped out due to heavy profit-taking and the liquidation of high-leverage positions
1. The Institutional "Seal of Approval.
The most important difference between 2026 and previous years is who holds the assets. Gold has always been a central bank favorite, but Bitcoin is now a mainstream corporate treasury asset.
Corporate adoption: As of early 2026, more than 170 publicly traded companies (including MicroStrategy and MetaPlanet) hold Bitcoin on their balance sheets, which is about 5% of the entire circulating supply.“Seller standard”: Large firms are no longer just “speculating.” They are auditing their custodians and viewing Bitcoin as a “fortress asset.” This institutional floor provides the kind of structural support that gold—often manipulated through large-scale “paper gold” contracts—struggles to maintain during highly leveraged liquidations.
2. We are Still "Early" (The Market Cap Gap).
Despite Bitcoin’s $1.7 trillion size, it is still a “startup” compared to the precious metals market.
Gold’s Massive Shadow: Gold’s total market cap is close to $35 trillion. For Bitcoin to “match” gold, its price would need to rise by about 20 times from its current levels.
Catch-up phase: Analysts note that the current “gold-to-silver” ratio (6.0) is remarkably similar to the “Bitcoin-to-Ethereum” ratio (5.0). This suggests that the crypto market is maturing into structural patterns similar to metals, but with the disproportionate aspect of a smaller, tech-based asset.
3. The ETF Revolution & Tokenization.
While you can buy gold ETFs, crypto offers a level of utility that physical bars or paper certificates can’t match.
Programmable money: Unlike a gold bar sitting in a vault, Bitcoin and Ethereum can be tokenized. This means they can be used as collateral in DeFi (decentralized finance) to generate yields or secure loans instantly 24/7.ETF inflows: The approval of spot Bitcoin and Ether ETFs has created a “permanent bid” from retirement funds and 401(k)s. In 2026, these products act as a bridge, allowing traditional investors to exit failing silver positions and move into digital assets with the click of a button.Transparency: You can audit the entire Bitcoin supply on your smartphone in seconds. To audit the world's gold supply, it is necessary to rely on self-reported data from hundreds of different sovereign countries.

Summary
Gold $XAU and silver $XAG are "defensive" assets—you buy them to stay exactly where you are. You buy Bitcoin because you want to be where the world is going. In a year like 2026, where a single-day drop in metals can erase the entire value of the crypto market, the liquidity, transparency, and institutional backing of Bitcoin make it the superior "Hard Money" for the digital age.

Meme coins, led by Dogecoin (DOGE), Shiba Inu (SHIB), and Pepe (PEPE), are down so far this week, extending the prevailing decline. The technical outlook for DOGE, SHIB, and PEPE reflects a bearish bias as meme coins fall below key support levels and broader market conditions become volatile.
Dogecoin faces sell-off with bears targeting psychological support next.
Dogecoin $DOGE is down more than 2% at press time on Friday, extending its 6% loss from the previous day. In its fourth consecutive bearish week, Dogecoin has fallen below $0.1200, with bears targeting the psychological support level of $0.1000.
Below this psychological level, the key support zone for DOGE remains between the October 10 low of $0.9500 and the S2 Pivot Point of $0.9172.
The Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) is extending below the signal line in negative territory, while the histogram below the zero line is wide, confirming downward momentum.
The Relative Strength Index stands at 34, below the midline and close to oversold, which could slow down the follow-through but keeps the bears in check.

A potential recovery attempt could face resistance at the 50-day EMA at $0.1348. 
Shiba Inu extends its downfall as bearish momentum spikes
Shiba Inu ($SHIB ) remains below the falling 50-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA) and a declining 200-day EMA, with the shorter moving average below the longer one, creating a bearish setup. At the time of writing, SHIB is down 2% on Friday, building on the 5% loss from Thursday.
The MACD and the signal line cross below the zero line as the histogram deepens, indicating a surge in bearish momentum. Meanwhile, the RSI at 36 approaches the oversold zone as selling pressure rises.
Immediate support for SHIB remains at the October 10 low of $0.00000678, followed by the S1 Pivot Point at $0.00000598.

On the upside, a potential recovery in SHIB could face opposition from the 50-day EMA at $0.00000812.
Pepe faces massive downside risk amid intense selling pressure 
Similar to other top meme coins, $PEPE is down 2% at press time on Friday after a 5% decline on Thursday. The frog-themed meme coin has reversed from its 50-day EMA after three consecutive days of losses. Additionally, the 50-day and 200-day EMAs extend a declining trend, indicating increasing bearish momentum. 
Similarly, the momentum indicators on the daily chart indicate that PEPE is under intense selling pressure.
Looking down, the risk is elevated because the nearest support lies at $0.00000363, marked by the December 18 low.

To reinstate an upward trend, PEPE should secure a daily close above the 50-day EMA at $0.00000523. 

The US Congress moved a step closer to a potential government shutdown after the Senate blocked a comprehensive budget package to fund the government.
Senate Democrats and some Republicans signaled they would vote against advancing the package today, warning that a federal government shutdown could occur if no deal is reached by 11:59 p.m. Friday.
A procedural vote to advance the budget package failed by a vote of 45-55. The forecasting market Poly Market is pricing in a 75% chance of a government shutdown on Saturday.
Eight Republican senators voted against the package, along with all Democrats. Among those voting “no” was Senate Majority Leader John Thune. After his last-minute negative vote, Thune requested reconsideration of the package so that it could be put back on the agenda.
Democrats say they are blocking the process because the six-bill package includes funding for the Department of Homeland Security (DHS). The party argues that it will not support the DHS section unless the Donald Trump administration commits to reforms that limit the harsh practices of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and end violent clashes between federal law enforcement and protesters.
Senate Appropriations Committee Vice Chair Patty Murray announced that she would vote “no,” citing the White House’s failure to reach a compromise to separate DHS funding from the package. Murray said that funding for five bills, such as child care, cancer research, air traffic controllers and the military, could pass quickly, but the DHS section, as it currently stands, is “unacceptable.” She added, “ICE and CBP are out of control.”
A cautious sense of optimism had emerged in the Senate this morning.

Bitcoin fell to its weakest level since mid-December at $83,383.23 on Thursday, falling nearly $3,000 within hours after a massive gold rally abruptly reversed.
After rising above $5,600 $XAU an ounce at one point on Thursday (gold had never been above $5,000 before Sunday night), gold fell nearly 10% to below $5,200 in the space of a few minutes this morning.
Silver’s price action followed a similar path, with the metal falling from $121 an ounce to $108.
Adding fuel to the sell-off was Microsoft (MSFT), whose shares fell more than 11% — possibly their worst day since March 2020 — after the company reported a slowdown in its cloud business. The tech giant’s stumble dragged the Nasdaq down about 1.5%, deepening the risk-off tone.
Crypto markets followed suit. Trading above $88,000 earlier in the session, Bitcoin fell sharply to $83,380, its lowest level in more than a month. The largest crypto was down 4.5% over the past 24 hours.
Ethereum’s ether #ETH 2,961.90, Solana $SOL $123.64, $DOGE $0.1222 and ADA$0.3510 all fell 5%-6% over the same period, while altcoins suffered the most in the sell-off.
Looking at crypto stocks, the largest corporate Bitcoin Holder Strategy (MSTR) is down 8%, its worst day since December 12, touching a 52-week low and trading back to September 2024 levels.
Other names posting big losses include Bullish (BLSH), TwentyOne Capital (XXI), Circle (CRCL) and Coinbase (COIN) - all down 4%-8%.
The S&P 500 Volatility Index jumped more than 16% to 19, its second-highest level since late November, while the DXY index rose to 96.6 from a low of 95.5 on Wednesday, which could also put fresh pressure on risk assets.
