Bitcoin (BTC) continued to hover around the $90,000-$91,000 levels as sellers continued to prevent a move higher. The world’s largest cryptocurrency registered a marginal increase over the past 24 hours, trading just above the $91,000 level. Analysts believe BTC has plenty of room to grow, with ARK Invest’s Cathy Wood stating that despite its significant upside, BTC has a long way to go before it reaches its full potential.
The crypto market has been relatively muted, with other altcoins making small gains. Ethereum (ETH) is up almost 2%, while Solana (SOL) is up 0.68%. Ripple (XRP) has continued its upward trajectory and is currently up by 1% as bulls look to flip the $1 level to support. Dogecoin (DOGE) and Cardano (ADA) also notched up minor gains. However, Toncoin (TON), Chainlink (LINK), Stellar (XLM), and Polkadot (DOT) defined market trends and notched up substantial gains. The global crypto market cap inched higher by 1% and is currently at $3.08 trillion. ChangeNOW CMO Pauline Shangett stated,
“The crypto market’s muted performance may be the calm before the storm. Bitcoin’s resilience in the $90K-$91K range, coupled with steady gains in Ethereum and Solana, suggests that a broader breakout could be on the horizon if market sentiment shifts. Cathy Wood’s assertion aligns with our view: Bitcoin’s true potential is far from realized. While the $91K level acts as a key psychological marker, the real story is in the sustained adoption and innovation fueling the sector.”
Trump Media In Talks To Buy Crypto Trading Platform Bakkt
Trump Media is in advanced talks to buy crypto trading platform Bakkt, sending shares of the platform soaring. The company, majority-owned by President-elect Donald Trump, also operates the Truth Social app, also saw its shares surge following the reports. Kelly Loeffler, a former CEO of Bakkt, is the co-chair of Trump’s inauguration committee. Bakkt went public in 2021 and generated over $50 million in revenue last year, according to data from FactSet. The exchange’s current market capitalization is just over $400 million.
Trump is also set to meet Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong in the pair’s first meeting since the election. However, details on the meeting’s agenda remain unclear. The meeting comes as Trump picks his cabinet and decides on other crucial roles. The President-elect plans to appoint a Bitcoin and crypto advisory council. Armstrong has publicly supported Hester Pierce, a Trump SEC Commissioner to lead the regulator. Coinbase also contributed over $100 million to various political action committees.
Goldman Sachs To Spin Out Crypto Platform
Goldman Sachs is preparing to spin out its crypto platform and create a new company focused on creating and trading financial instruments on various blockchain networks. The bank revealed it is speaking to potential collaborators to add to the platform’s capabilities and help develop new offerings. Mathew McDermott, Goldman’s Head of Digital Assets, said the spinout would be completed in 12-18 months, depending on regulatory approvals, stating it was in the market’s best interest to have something industry-owned. He also revealed Goldman Sachs was planning to create marketplaces for tokenized real-world assets and focus on the “fund complex” in the United States and European debt markets.
The bank will target large financial institutions over retail investors, and the new products will depend entirely on permissioned blockchains.
Bitcoin (BTC) Faces Potential Correction
Bitcoin (BTC) has remained around $90,000 over the past few sessions. However, analysts have warned it could face a significant short-term correction. According to a market update by CryptoQuant, BTC could face a potential dip to the $70,000 price range due to a market cooling phase. This means despite its recent bullish momentum, the world’s largest cryptocurrency could face a significant pullback before it reaches $100,000 or higher. CryptoQuant suggested two possible scenarios for BTC in the near term. The first scenario could see BTC consolidate within the $87,000 to $93,000 range before gathering momentum and going beyond $100,000. BTC could see a jump to $120,000
The second scenario could see BTC drop to $70,000 before resuming its upward trajectory to reach $100,000. However, despite the potential for a significant dip, BTC whales continue accumulating Bitcoin, indicating strong market confidence.
Bitcoin (BTC) Price Analysis
Bitcoin (BTC) is trading around the $91,500 mark, registering an increase of just over 1% during the past 24 hours. Market watchers have mixed predictions about BTC’s future price movements. CryptoQuant has stated BTC may decline to $70,000 before resuming its uptrend or consolidate between $87,000-$93,000 before going past $100,000. ARK Invest’s Cathy Wood, a long-time supporter of BTC, has stated that despite its impressive performance, the asset has a long way to go before reaching its full potential, adding that ARK Invest remains confident in the asset’s future trajectory. Wood believes BTC will continue to gain momentum as regulatory concerns ease under a new administration.
BTC has registered a marginal decline since registering a new all-time high just under a week ago. However, buyers have prevented a drop below $90,000, indicating that bullish sentiment could resume and power the asset past $100,000.
Looking at the price chart, BTC may have entered into a consolidation phase after setting a new all-time high, with the price oscillating between $88,000 and $93,000. BTC started the previous week with a significant increase of 9.43% and settled at $87,706. However, it faced considerable selling pressure on Tuesday, dropping to a low of $82,709 before recovering and settling at $87,210, registering a marginal decline. Bullish sentiment returned Wednesday as BTC surged to a new all-time high, hitting $93,434 before declining and settling at $90,150. However, sellers regained control on Thursday as BTC fell just over 3%, slipping below $90,000 and settling at $87,324.

Friday saw BTC recover and push back above $90,000, rising almost 4% and settling at $90,726. However, BTC turned bearish over the weekend, dropping by 0.67% on Saturday and 0.73% on Sunday to slip below $90,000 and settle at $89,464. Buyers attempted to go above $93,000 on Monday as the price rose to an intraday high of $92,549 before declining and settling at $90,509. The current session sees BTC up by 1.25% and trading around $91,600 as it inches towards the $92,000 mark.
So, what next for BTC? Analysts expect BTC to enter a period of consolidation before breaking past $95,000 and surging to $100,000. On the other hand, some analysts predict a considerable decline in the short term which could see the price drop to $70,000 before resuming its upward trajectory. However, the consensus is BTC will push above $100,000 during this bull run.
