$BTC has taken a significant hit over the past two months, dropping nearly 28% from its October all-time high around $126K.
$BTC

What looked like a strong continuation earlier in the cycle has now turned into one of the sharpest pullbacks we’ve seen after an ATH, catching many traders off guard.

This type of correction is notable because of how quickly it unfolded. A 28% decline in such a short time frame highlights increasing volatility and a shift in market sentiment, especially as leverage gets flushed out and momentum cools off across the board.

While painful in the short term, these post-ATH drawdowns have historically played an important role in resetting the market.

Whether this move turns into a deeper correction or sets the stage for the next leg higher will depend on how $BTC reacts around key support levels in the coming weeks.

The Terra ecosystem is now starting to show life and the recent price movement in $LUNA and LUNC can hardly be ignored. Bitcoin is still in the sideways phase nevertheless, both tokens begin to decouple with the rest of the market, indicating a potential powerful weekend breakout.

$LUNC

This is a definite momentum building move and does not feel like some of the short lived spikes.

$LUNA

At a fundamentals level, there are a number of catalysts converging simultaneously. Over 849 million LUNC are burned this week alone, causing an actual supply shock.

To top it all, the next v2.18 chain upgrade is also beginning to draw smart money, and traders are currently front running before the news breaks.

Volume is the best indicator though, with 24-hour trading having increased more than 1100 percent which is a clear indication of whale trading instead of noise by the retail traders.

In the case of LUNC, I am monitoring the $0.000060-0.000062 zone as one of the areas that the entry point can be and on the upside the level may reach to $0.000081-100 as long as the momentum persists.

To control the downside risk, a strict invalidation is close to $0.000054. In the case of LUNA, the form appears more technical as it comes out of a falling wedge, and the entries are 0.160-0.165 with a short-term goal around 0.20 with the risk maintained at less than 0.145.

All in all, the dynamics between both assets is healthy, and as long as the market continues to operate in that way, LUNC has the potential to reach the area of $0.000090 or even above in the nearest future.

It is one of those times when volume, fundamentals and structure are all getting bought together and Terra is a place to pay a lot of attention to in the next few days.

Elon Musk has just rocked politics with a statement that is causing shockwaves to be felt across $EUR .

When $EUR fined X $140 million due to what they termed as excessive freedom of speech, Musk made it very clear that he felt that the European Union needed to be abolished altogether.

$EUR

The mere mention of this comment caused panic in political elites who survive off centralized control.

The strength of the moment is that it struck a chord most people have felt for a long time. The increment of the mass decisions of unelected bureaucracies, restrictions of speech, and overpower of national sovereignty has been a growing source of frustration.

The fact that Musk mentions that power ought to be given back to individual nations is indicative of a feeling that had been brewing behind the scenes.

This is not merely one fine or one platform. It is who owns the discourse and who has the power to choose what people are permitted to talk about.

A fight over the freedom of expression is on, and the opposition against the heavy-handed regulation is no longer the prerogative of the fringe voices.

Europe is experiencing a sense of getting into a real tension, a real debate. Regardless of the opinions of people about Musk, it is evident that the cracks are becoming visible, and the previously taboo conversation is now being discussed publicly.

I am closely monitoring $SOL which is trading at about 138.90 and it is starting to establish a pattern that it can make a decisive move.

$SOL

On the positive side, a clean break above 140.10 would open up the momentum towards 141.50 and then 144.80 and possibly even 146.90 in case the buyers enter the market in a strong manner.

The building is narrowing and $SOL is about to break out once volume is applied.

On the negative, I am observing 137.20 to be the important support. Any fall below this area would change the trend in the short-term where the price would move towards 135.80 and consequently 134.50.

These ranges would indicate a slowing momentum and may cause bearish pressure when the sellers get control.

To plan on my part, I will purchase the breakout above 140.10 in case the move is accompanied with strength, or purchase the dip between 137 and 136 in case SOL reaches back into support.

In any case, I will wait to be confirmed and be ready to take any direction that is determined by the market next.

In the recent past, the market has been abound with talk regarding how certain key players in the market appear to predict any huge moves ahead of time.

$BTC

$ETH

$SOL

This new volatility spurt reminds a large scale high-stakes gamble and the crypto community has certainly taken notice of it. Several traders also think that some connected traders put themselves in an early position and cashed in on momentum in BTC, ETH, and SOL assets.

Circulating market speculation claims one of the large investors has accumulated a huge long position worth hundreds of millions of dollars in top cryptocurrencies.

The unrealized profits on this position are estimated at tens of millions with the recent price soaring--a figure which, it would take most of us a lifetime to accrue through our our own earnings.

Whether there is truth or hyperbole in these rumors, the magnitude of these posts points to the aggressiveness with which some players are maneuvering in this market cycle.

What is fascinating is that this long position is also said to be bigger than the short positions some of the big traders had put during the last black swans.

When true it demonstrates a drastic turnaround in confidence and a conviction that the current trend is yet to have exhausted itself. To the common traders, it serves as a reminder of how the landscape can change so fast of how quickly major capital enters the market.

I have been looking at the future of Cardano ($ADA ), and the following years are going to be quite interesting.

$ADA

Taking a case of one spending 1000 dollars on $ADA today and retaining it until July 12, 2026, the estimates have it that he may make approximately 825.78 as a payoff, or that is 82.58 in 211 days.

Although ADA has experienced a recent pullback, almost 5.91% during the past week, the company is still an indication of a good short-term opportunity despite the uncertainty in market sentiment.

In the future, the technical perspective shows that ADA might be trading in the range of a minimum price of 0.418 and the maximum price of 0.647 in 2025.

It is predicted to remain around an average of 0.615 indicating moderate yet consistent growth. It is anticipated that by the year 2026 the price range will be moved upwards, analyzing the lowest price at 0.658 and the highest price at 0.834 with an average price of the trade being nearer to 0.793.

As one goes further into 2027, the long-term trend of ADA is more positive. According to experts, the price may vary with a range of between 0.92 and 1.39 with a middle value of 1.21. This is in line with the general impression that ADA may take off further as adoption and network advances are registered.

The minimum price of ADA is projected to increase by at least $1.38, maximum by 1.64, and the average price of ADA is estimated at around 1.42 in 2028 indicating that this currency has a long-term high price.

On the whole, the future of Cardano is positive, although the company is under a certain pressure at the moment.

With the market conditions stabilized and the continued development of the industry as planned, ADA would provide sound returns to the patient investors who are not afraid to stick with it in the face of a volatile market.

I am looking at $SOL and at present price, the price is giving a good negative rejection towards the range of $138-140.

$SOL

This region is serving as a serious resistance junction with numerous EMAs and past levels of reactions cumulating.

The recent upsurge has also made the RSI enter in the overbought region which implies that the rally is losing its momentum and sellers are beginning to gain control.

I intend here a short position where I will open between 138 and 140 when the price starts stalling at this ceiling of resistance.

The zone-based downsides that I am monitoring are 133, 130, and 128, and all of them coincide with the possible demand zones where buyers can seek to re-enter.

These levels provide a smooth profile of the partial take-profits as the motion builds up.

To be on the safe side, my stop loss is at 146, above the latest swing high in case $SOL breaks out strong.

The bearish set up will be valid and short bias will remain as long as price remains below this invalidation point.

A big move has been made by Solana $XRP is officially supported on the Solana network, and this is a unexpected and paradigm-shifting development to both Solana and XRP.

$XRP

$SOL

This crossover has instantly created a conversation within the crypto-community, particularly in the supporters of XRP and Solana.

This is leading many to wonder whether it is the beginning of the end of the longstanding Ethereum-XRP relationship, as XRP-related development and testing have traditionally been more skewed in the Ethereum ecosystem.

The transition would prove to be much more calculated than it might seem because with Solana, there are no high fees and the speed is fast.

The new integration will make it possible to settle quicker, less expensive, and expanded the interoperability of XRP holders. Meanwhile, it makes Solana stronger as the network that is gaining rapid influence in the industry.

It may or may not be a realignment but one thing is now definite; it is a new chapter and the ecosystems race has just heated up.

This is one of the most aggressive $BTC promotions to date, as President Trump claims that someday Bitcoin will replace gold.

$BTC

$TRUMP

The market is already shaking with this statement, as it makes the traders and long-term holders enthusiastic about BTC being the future of global value storage.

The self-confidence of Trump symbolizes the beginning of the shift of large political and financial players tattoo upon the growing role of Bitcoin in the classic financial and on-line economy.

The analogy of Bitcoin and gold is more serious than ever as the number of institutional inflows increases and more of the world is adopting it.

No matter when this prediction will be fulfilled, one thing is definite: the momentum of Bitcoin is not weakening.

When a commentary such as this is made by the very top of the leadership structure, the story is just building up, and the market is listening.

I am tracking the trend of latest trends in the treasury and it is evident that the adoption rate of Bitcoin by companies has declined drastically in Q4 2025.

Under the new data, there were only nine companies which put BTC on their balance sheets in the current quarter, which is almost 53 times lower than 53 new entrants in Q3.

Although 117 companies have moved to Bitcoin this year in general, the pace of smaller companies is no longer hot. In the meantime, the largest corporate ownerships continue to accumulate their reserves in the background.

The treasury companies are still holding relatively small volumes of Bitcoin, but it is interesting to note that well-financed corporates are continuing to accumulate even as smaller corporations and retail investors withdraw.

Others are halting their accumulation altogether such as Met planet in Japan which does not make any Bitcoin purchases in more than two months. Some even sell — as in the case of Satsuma Technology in the UK, which was selling unloaded 579 BTC at about $53m to leave itself with only 620 BTC on the books.

Although it is slowing down, the giants are not easing their foot off the gas.

The biggest corporate Bitcoin holder by market value, Strategy just acquired $962 million in its most recent purchase, the biggest it has made since July, which is significantly less than the $21.97 billion it has acquired in the same year.

At the moment, there are more than 1 million BTC (valued at 90.2 billion dollars) held in the treasuries of publicly traded companies,
approximately 4.7 percent of the total Bitcoin.

The other 1.49 million BTC (7% of supply) is being held in spot Bitcoin ETFs indicating that institutional demand remains strong even in the quieter months.

I am writing this following the observation of one of the largest twists of the crypto world today. Do Kwon, the personality behind the $40B Terra crash, was eventually sentenced in Manhattan.

The court gave him 8 years in prison, and a forfeiture worth 19.3 million in damages that he had committed the entire scheme terming it as a huge fraud.

Despite this, the judge still recognized the 17 months that he has served. It is a massive move and the only thing mad is the way the market has been responding.

The Terra ecosystem is going to take off instead of sink into the ocean. LUNA has soared to $0.2005, an incredible 180% jump in seven days with a volume slamming over $682M.

Another one that is tearing upward is LUNC, which has broken 100% gains this week, driven by blazing burns, and a newly resurgent community. It is as though the ghost of 2022 had a long lift off and everyone is recognizing this as the beginning of a full scale Phoenix Era.

Frankly speaking, it is insane to see that the same tokens that everybody claimed to be dead are currently giving one of the greatest second chances to the market.

Drop a when you panic sold down to $0.03 and drop a can when you are riding this comeback with confidence. The vibrancy in the community is unimaginable.

Cross-label that friend that Terra would never resurrect again because this is already becoming one of the largest cryptocurrency re-emergesy stories. Riding it or left on the sidelines... The chart is making its own statement.

$LUNA

$BNB

$LUNC

It is a huge geopolitical reshuffle of the Western Hemisphere and the majority of the population is yet to realize that the world is rapidly changing.

$LUNA

The U.S. took control of a Venezuelan tanker that was loaded with more than a million barrels of oil on December 10, 2025, and within the same hour, president Trump directly threatened Colombia, the South American ally who has been the strongest throughout American history.

$TRUMP

It is an indication of a turning point to a drama of a country that has been the bone of the U.S. strategy in the entire region over decades.

$USTC

In 2025, the break of the U.S. Colombia relationship happened at an unprecedented rate. The message was clear, ever since Washington has canceled the visa of the Colombian president in order to sanction him and his inner circle, the old alliances are no longer the same.

Colombia retaliated by dissociating itself, withholding intelligence cooperation, becoming a part of the Belt and Road Initiative, becoming a member of the BRICS bank, and changing its dependency on imports to Beijing in its history.

Simultaneously, Venezuela, with sanctions, strikes, and pressure of the U.S. still continued to export oil at high levels. Massive shadow fleet at the moment carries almost a fifth of all approved crude in the world, which weakens the move by Washington to clog revenue streams. The American operations were even openly criticized by its allies in Europe and this was one of the first indications that the traditional power blocs were becoming more fractured.

What is happening is not the opposite of maximum pressure succeeding, it is the reverse. The decades of alliance building in South America by the U.S have been destroyed by the same prompting the region to lean towards China instead.

This is when the long-term realignment starts, and when this realignment becomes solid in full, there might be no reversing the process.

🚨 BREAKING UPDATE 🚨

Oracle has also been a big loser in the market, and its stocks have plummeted by 15 percent. Such a sharp fall has raised eyebrows among investors globally since the abrupt fall indicates increasing doubts on the recent performance of the company.

The sell-off has since removed an unfathomable 102 billion market value, one of the largest declines that the technology giant has experienced in the recent years. The loss in valuation is so huge that it is casting serious doubts on the future of the company and the attitude of the investors.

Market analysts are keeping a close eye on the situation attempting to figure out whether it is a one-off response or the onset of a more profound correction. At least in the short run, the unanticipated drop of Oracle has now taken its place among the biggest gossip in the financial and technological circles.

Shareholders are encouraged to remain vigilant because more volatility may ensue in the future particularly when the bigger market pressure is applied to key technology stocks.

$BTC has recently hit the mark of $90 000 and new buyers will not be able to enter the market at that price as stated by James Wynn.

$BTC

He feels that the market would provide a more favorable entry point of about 60,000, at which point $BTC would be much cheaper and possibly less risky to accumulate.

Although his opinion is more conservative, it points to the still-present discussion between the people who predict the further momentum and those who anticipate a more significant correction.

Finally, traders have to choose between being cautious and taking advantage of an existing trend.

The official launch of a new campaign, which allows users to complete basic tasks, has also been made available by Binance Square, which allows campaign participants to unlock their portion of 10,000 $USDC in token vouchers.

$USDC

The campaign will take place between 10 December, 2025 (07:00 UTC) and 24 December, 2025 (09:00 UTC) where the new creators will have a new chance to make money and learn about the features of Square.

Users who have never posted on Binance Square prior to the cutoff time and are qualified to do so will be able to directly access Level 1 to Level 6 tasks.

The levels do not have to be completed step by step, so the reward is unlocked whenever all the requirements of the task will be fulfilled. Level 1 is the only level where the participants can share 5,000 USDC and there is a limit of 5 USDC per user and create a profile, follow creators, post, and complete the first post.

Levels 2-6 give 5,000 additional $USDC to people that make eligible posts through the unique tools provided by Square. Not less than 100 characters should be used in each post, and 10 engagements should be achieved. The number of posts made by the users to finish various levels is unlimited; however, the amount of rewards is limited to 5 USDC per user.

In sum, Binance Square is ensuring that new creators have never had it easier to get in and experiment with what Square has to offer and receive actual rewards in case of authentic engagement. It is an excellent opportunity to those who are interested in beginning to build on the platform.

The Fed has provided appears to be a modest relief cut, lowering the rates by 25 bps to 3.50%, although, the message it conveys is not reassuring at all.

$DOGE

$ASTER

This was by no means the revival of the easy money, this was the last wake-up call before the system closes its doors permanently. The headline can be rejoiced in the markets but the data below the headline is a far gloomier tale.

November saw the killing of small businesses who had lost 120,000 jobs whereas big corporations gained 90,000. The U.S. economy is not being driven like a machine any longer - it is divesting into two different worlds.

The decline of ADP by 32,000 jobs is the most significant employment fall since April 2020, which is indicative of the strain underneath the water.

Meanwhile, JOLTS records 7.67 million job vacancies that make the labor market seem strange on the surface, but the labor report makes it obvious that the labor market is not softening, but fracturing. One is growing, the other is choking and the gap between them is growing bigger with each monthly issue of the print.

This was no increase in rate, it was a signal that the machine is in some strains. The issue now is how long the split economy can take before the cracks become apparent.

$SOL has just set the crypto timeline ablaze with a brutal troll directly targeted to the $XRP community because he posted one number that is 589.

The meaning of this can be fully understood by anyone who has been around this space long enough, which is the notorious, totally falsified so-called Simpsons prediction purporting that $XRP would be trading at $589 at the end of the year. There is no caption, no context, it is a stream of chaos in the feed.

The time could not have been any better. This was immediately after Western Union preferred Solana to XRP, and also after the proponents of XRP said that Ripple was on a superior plane.

Solana answered this earlier by stating that the two ecosystems are not even at the same level- followed by the most iconic XRP meme of all time.

After large organizations such as Franklin template and BlackRock kept hyping Solana infrastructure, the post no longer seemed a joke, but rather a flex. The XRP audience was reduced to the scramble, and the Solana crowd merely sat back and liked the show.

Finally, Solana posted one of the chillest memes of all the year, and the whole market felt it. XRP army in shambles, SOL army in popcorn.

$ETH has hit a juncture, which is a critical point, and the market is now going to hit a decisive point.

$ETH

Here, we will be able to observe that the classic bull trap might be formed using a bearish Power-of-3 structure or the clean breakout that will give the affirmation of the uptrend continuation. It is one such field where price action turns very significant.

Being a trader, you do not have to foresee the precise outcome but find areas where the risk-to-reward ratio would favor you.

Such incidents as the FOMC communication can provide the best volatility where there is opportunity to those who understand how to maneuvers through the sharp spikes in the price market. Even a regular 1% shift is significant in the long-term growth.

That is why it is important to have the right guidance. Sources such as @breakoutprop assist traders to know how to handle such market conditions in an disciplined and controlled risk manner. As soon as you get used to trading volatility, the results will be scaled in no time.

Even 1% change in price can be translated to 500 dollars in a 50K account but 2000 dollars in a 200K account. The timing, the structure and the risk control makes the difference between little percentages and significant advances.

A new pilot program introduced by CFTC, $BTC , $ETH , and $USDC can now be used as collateral in the U.S. derivatives markets.

It is a significant move in the convergence of crypto and conventional finance where digital assets have a closer place in institutional trading contexts.

By doing this, the regulator is expressing an optimistic view in the growing crypto market, yet being able to provide stringent levels of custody and oversight to maintain safety and compliance.

Implementation of crypto-backed collateral might trigger more profound liquidity, and attract more institutional users, and reinforce the market structural framework. Another indication that the process of integrating crypto into the U.S. is regulated is happening, step by step.

The single Alpha listing that I found truly interesting today was of $PALU that was one that had something significant to say.

The other entries were more of instant exit pumps, which could hardly last longer than 30 seconds in cooling down again.

It is increasingly becoming clear that real momentum is hard to come by and that most new listings are just cashing in on short term hype with no follow through whatsoever.

$PALU however, was actually momentum as compared to all other things on the board.

In the meantime, I am keeping a close eye on the persistence of this trend, since there has never been any doubt between the genuine demand and liquidity of exit.
