On-chain data indicates that large Bitcoin wallets accumulated roughly 270,000 BTC over the past 30 days, about 1.3% of the total supply. In dollar terms, nearly $23 billion shifted into longer-term holdings, the strongest net buy from this cohort in roughly 13 years. Short-term metrics still show selling pressure, reducing the odds of an immediate breakout.

Bitcoin traded near $91,222, up 0.70% for the session, with the short-side "max pain" sitting at $91,962, only 1.09% higher and tied to $112.84 million in potential liquidations, according to CoinGlass. On the other side, the long "max pain" is $86,225, about 5.21% lower, linked to $226.89 million.

Bitcoin hovered near 2026 highs above $91,000 into Sunday's weekly close while traders assessed potential volatility linked to U.S. military action in Venezuela. Market participants focused on order-book liquidity around $88,000 and resistance near $92,000–$95,000, with some analysts highlighting thin sell orders above $95,000 and a possible shift in Bitcoin's performance relative to gold.

Bitcoin spot inflows surged about 1,671% within a five-minute window, a move capable of shifting price and short-term order flow. After a decline from levels over six figures into the low-$90,000s and a flush of leverage, resistance stands between the mid-$90,000 area and $100,000, making consistent spot demand and restrained futures positioning critical for continuation.

Bitcoin rose above $91,000 after breaking a mid‑December 2025 range, with Polymarket showing a 70% chance of $95K in January. Addresses holding 1,000+ BTC turned from net selling to accumulation, according to Checkonchain. Technicals on TradingView showed RSI nearing overbought and a positive MACD crossover as traders eyed the $94K–$95K zone.

Bitcoin has broken out above a descending channel following an extended correction, but momentum remains muted and conviction light. The price is approaching the $94K–$96K supply zone, with $95K as local resistance, while a tightening wedge and liquidation clusters around $85K–$87K keep the risk of a pullback toward $80K in play.

Bitcoin climbed as traders probed a major resistance zone, keeping the $100,000 threshold in play. Analyst Michaël van de Poppe flagged a possible dip to close a CME futures gap before continuation, while on-chain watcher Maartunn monitored the Inter-Exchange Flow Pulse for confirmation. Momentum tools such as RSI and MACD still lean supportive, though a breakout needs validation.

Wintermute transferred a net 1,213 BTC, about $107 million, to Binance on Dec. 31, 2025 during thin liquidity. Further net deposits continued on Jan. 1 and Jan. 2, while the alleged urgent accumulation ahead of the Jan. 2 Fed announcement was not supported by the day’s net flows. Records indicate inventory distribution rather than directional buying.
