According to TradingView data, large Bitfinex accounts reduced Bitcoin long exposure after a late-December peak near 73,000 BTC. X commentator MartyParty links the unwind to a Wyckoff-style spring and cites a potential move toward $135k, while CryptoQuant reports whale balances declined by over 200,000 BTC over the past year.

On January 9, analyst BitBull outlined on X a bullish Bitcoin outlook, arguing that a weekly Relative Strength Index breakout could lift BTC toward $103,000–$105,000 over the next three to four weeks. The projection implies around a 15% advance from the current price area near $90,600, where Bitcoin has mostly traded around $90,000 with brief moves above $91,000. The analyst's view references a similar RSI breakout in April 2025, which occurred before Bitcoin climbed to its all-time high of $126,080.

On January 10, 2026, Binance founder Changpeng Zhao urged resilience, saying U.S. banks were buying Bitcoin as some investors sold. The asset hovered around $90,000 and was trading at $90,540 at press time, while his post refocused attention on institutional participation.

U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs are nearing a third straight month of net outflows, with $210 million withdrawn in the first 10 days of January 2026, according to SoSoValue. Redemptions totaled $4.7 billion across November–December 2025 and early January, while segment AUM is about $116 billion after peaking above $166 billion before Oct. 10.

Bitcoin pulled back to the $90,000 psychological support after meeting resistance near $94,000. According to a QuickTake on CryptoQuant by The Enigma Trader, exchange netflows shifted from –11,500 BTC to +1,100 BTC since December, implying reduced accumulation. As of this writing, the price is around $90,463, per CoinMarketCap.

Bitcoin is consolidating around $90k while resistance near $95k caps the rebound from the $80k low. The 100-day and 200-day moving averages sit near $99k and $106k. On the 4-hour chart, price is in a rising wedge with $90k support and $95k resistance, and the SOPR 30-day EMA hovers just below 1.0.

On 10 January 2026, VanEck outlined a capital markets framework modeling Bitcoin’s evolution through 2050. The paper frames Bitcoin as a structural monetary asset, with a base case of roughly 15% annual compounding and expected volatility of 40%–70%, while small 1%–3% allocations are shown to improve portfolio efficiency.

A new technical analysis suggests that Bitcoin's price has once again touched a key "Crash Line," a level that has repeatedly served as a reload zone during the current bull phase. The analyst behind the study argues this is a deliberate market move, noting previous visits to this trendline have coincided with declines of about 33% followed by strong rallies. Another market watcher outlines two paths for BTC, with a break and hold above 92,000 dollars seen as bullish, while failure to reclaim that level could send price toward a Chicago Mercantile Exchange gap around 88,000 dollars.
