Bitcoin back above $91,000 by Jan. 4; long-term channel intact into early 2026

By Jan. 4, Bitcoin rebounded above $91,000 after a New Year selloff that sent prices toward $87,000, briefly pressured by Venezuela-linked U.S. strike headlines. The market later steadied near $91,243 after stalling just under $92,000. A longer-term rising channel remains intact, pointing to an ongoing multi-year uptrend into early 2026.
