Crypto Market Fire Alert 🔥📉 Bitcoin's battling hard today at ~$66,800–$67,800 after dipping below $67K (down ~2% intraday), but still clinging to slight weekly gains amid heavy risk-off vibes! Ethereum's mirroring the pain, sliding ~1.5–3.9% to hover around $2,000–$2,047, finding some support after testing lower levels.
Big drama: A massive $8.72B in BTC + ETH options expiry hits today, BTC's lion share at ~$7.74B with max pain ~$75K, ETH ~$975M at ~$2,200. This could spark wild volatility or a "pain trade" squeeze!
Altcoins taking hits too, XRP, SOL, DOGE, $ADA all down 2–3.5%, total market cap back under $2.4T. But silver linings: Spot ETF inflows flipped positive with $506M recently, XRP ETFs booming to $1.2B AUM, and $RWA tokenization on Ethereum is stealing the spotlight. Fear & Greed Index plunged to extreme fear (~13),classic buy-the-dip setup?
Hold tight, traders,rebound potential if we stabilize post-expiry! What's your play?
$BTC Quick BTC take: higher timeframes still lean bearish, buyers look tired, and price is stuck chopping in a tight range. Bulls need a strong daily close above ~$68.5k to flip momentum. Patience > forcing trades.
You can see Bitcoin's price kept getting sold into around/slightly above the Previous Week Mid. Those red dots are just showing repeated reactions there.
That’s why location alone isn’t enough. It’s not just where price is, it’s how it behaves at the level.
There wasn’t real confirmation of buyers stepping in up there. It was mostly supply absorbing the push.
Now we’re seeing the sell-off develop.
Remember, i’m not predicting how low this goes, because It could dip into the lower box and bounce quickly, or rotate deeper. That part unfolds in real time.
And the arrow was never about timing, just showing where I expected reactions.
This is why patience matters. Let the level prove itself before committing. #STBinancePreTGE #solana
$BTC Bitcoin just reclaimed $68K and briefly touched $69,487 Massive short liquidations, strong ETF inflows, and bullish market sentiment are clearly driving this move. In my view, this isn’t just noise, it shows growing confidence across crypto as both

trending now: the btc hourly is getting violent. ₿ the edge: fading this pump. the market is priced at 50/50 but bearish technicals are screaming weakness. this is pure fomo vs data.
we just saw $332k in buy volume from 81 traders vs $0 sells.
$BTC When the October peak above $126,000 triggered systematic de-risking, hedge funds aggressively dumped their exposure to Bitcoin ETFs in Q4 2025, reducing aggregate allocations by 28% from Q3 levels (CF Benchmarks). Today's price of bitcoin is close to $66,000, down almost 50% from its peak due to new tariff uncertainty. This is a sort of mechanical retreat: as arbitrage crowded out and eroded the carry that supported positions, basis trade yields fell from double digits to about 4%.
$BTC The market is currently bullish, supported by an 80% indicator strength. In the next few hours, a target of $68,000 may be tested, with potential resistance at $68,500. A sustained move above these levels could lead to further gains.
$BTC Realized losses spike is legit. Biggest since 2022 FTX mess, matches those historical bottoms where weak hands got flushed.
But current setup is neutral at best. BTC at **$67,940**, ranging **$66,760-$68,800** on 4h/1h. 1d still bearish below supertrend, indecision dojis everywhere, low volume. No clean bottom pattern yet.
Microstructure balanced. OI stable at $45.5B, funding neutral +0.002%, longs crowded at 1.94 ratio but shorts took more liqs lately ($29M vs $20M longs). Not a total reset. Macro risk-neutral. VIX 19, gold ripping to $5104 signals some off vibes despite stable yields. Sharpe low fits chop.
Sentiment off extreme fear, now neutral. BTC dom steady 56.5%.
Capitulation happened, bounce possible if **$68,800** clears with volume. Below **$66,760** opens **$63k**. Local low forming, not screaming buy. Watch.#ETHTrendAnalysis #Xrp🔥🔥
