Year-end markets always孕育 opportunities in despair, confirming directions through repeated swings. This moment is the final showdown between bulls and bears in 2025.



The time is December 30th. Bitcoin quietly broke above the critical resistance level of $89,000 yesterday and is now hovering around $89,500. As the New Year approaches, market liquidity has somewhat thinned, but the covert capital game has never stopped.

Speaking of December, Bitcoin's days have indeed been tough. Since reaching a high of $126,000 in October, it has been adjusting downward, with the deepest drop to $84,500, a monthly decline of over 30%. This most ferocious correction of the year has completely frozen market sentiment.

From a technical perspective, things are becoming interesting. The daily chart's $88,421 has become a "life gate" for short-term trends. Yesterday's close effectively broke through this level, sending a positive signal. However, true confirmation depends on today's closing performance.

The RSI indicator is now stuck at 43%, indicating that downward momentum is waning but far from strong. The pressure in the $90,000-$91,000 region is significant, and above that, there's an even tougher fortress—$98,759. Looking downward, the just-broken $88,421 has turned into support, with a defense line at the $86,000-$87,000 zone.

Ethereum is also quietly gathering strength, having re-guarded the psychological threshold of $3,000.

88421, this position really needs to be held, or it will just be the prelude to another round of sharp decline.

88421, this hurdle has really been stuck for a long time. Whether it can hold steady at today's close is the real test.

88421 this critical point really held, today’s closing reveals the truth. A 30% drop and still buying, maybe it’s 🤡 haha. Opportunity born out of despair? I only see despair in the account. If 90000 can’t be broken, I’ll have to keep waiting, truly testing patience. That wave at 8.45 I didn’t bottom out, now I regret it to the core. Ethereum repeatedly hitting 3000, still feeling hopeful. Psychological barriers can collapse suddenly, I can’t afford to gamble on 98759. RSI at 43% is weakening but not strong, is it time for sideways consolidation again? At the end of the year, liquidity feels like all the big players have already left. Breaking 88421 is a signal, believe it or not.

88421 this level is really critical; it depends on how today's close turns out, otherwise it will just be a false alarm.

88421 this level is indeed interesting, but I still think it depends on the dollar index's movement.

Can this barrier of 88421 really be held? It still seems to depend on the volume in the next few days.
