According to Paul Howard of Wincent, Bitcoin is likely to trade sideways between $85,000 and $95,000 through December, as reported by CoinDesk.
The reason? Low December liquidity may suppress major $BTC moves. However, this sets up a strong rotation environment for altcoins, as traders often shift capital when Bitcoin consolidates.
🌏 A key macro trigger to watch: the upcoming interest rate decision by the Bank of Japan — which could reignite global risk appetite if rates stay unchanged.
💡 Bottom Line:
Sideways BTC doesn’t mean a dead market — it often marks the start of altcoin momentum.
🚨 Market Outlook: Bitcoin May Stay Range-Bound Into Year-End
An analyst from Wincent says Bitcoin could continue chopping below $95K through December due to thin year-end liquidity.
According to Paul Howard, low trading volume may cap BTC’s recovery, but this environment often favors altcoins, as traders rotate into smaller-cap assets seeking higher volatility and returns.
💡 Key Takeaway:
While $BTC may stay stuck in a range, altcoins could quietly outperform as liquidity shifts across the market.
🌉 Coinbase and Chainlink Launch Base–Solana Bridge to Connect Ecosystems
A powerful new cross-chain bridge is now live, secured by Chainlink Cross-Chain Interoperability Protocol (CCIP) — enabling seamless interaction between Base and Solana.
What this means for users:
• Trade Solana-based tokens directly on Base dApps
• Secure cross-chain transfers backed by Chainlink CCIP
• Faster liquidity flow between two major ecosystems
• Big step toward true multichain DeFi adoption
This move significantly strengthens interoperability and could unlock massive new liquidity routes across both networks.
📉 Bitcoin’s Negative Correlation With Nasdaq 100 Signals a Possible Market Bottom
A powerful historical pattern is showing up again.
For the fourth time in five years, Bitcoin has broken down from its correlation with the Nasdaq 100 — and every previous occurrence marked a major market bottom.
What history tells us:
• Bitcoin often decouples before strong recoveries
• Weak correlation = independent strength building
• Smart money typically accumulates during this phase
• Previous signals led to major upside expansions
Right now, the same setup is forming again — quietly.
This is exactly how bottoms are made:
Boring, uncertain, and ignored… right before the move.

Crypto prediction markets just took a massive step forward.
With this new integration, users can now bet on real-world events directly inside the MetaMask mobile wallet — no more switching between apps or external platforms.

• Faster access during live events
• MetaMask evolves from a wallet into a full crypto activity hub
This move signals one thing clearly:
On-chain prediction markets are entering mass adoption.
The line between wallet, trading, and real-world betting just disappeared.
🚨 TradFi vs DeFi? A New Regulatory Battle Is Brewing
Ken Griffin’s firm, Citadel Securities, has formally urged the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission to tighten oversight on DeFi trading protocols.
Citadel argues that DeFi lacks proper investor protections and supports what it calls “unsafe shadow markets.”
However, leading voices in the crypto industry have pushed back hard, calling this move a direct TradFi attack on decentralized finance and its open-market principles.
The clash highlights the growing tension between centralized financial power and decentralized innovation — and regulation may be the next major battlefield.
BlackRock is now surpassing options activity across several established ETFs, including gold funds, while Goldman Sachs has agreed to acquire Innovator Capital Management for ~$2B.
