Crypto Weekly Review: Bitcoin Near $81,600 as Markets Retreat

The cryptocurrency market strengthened earlier this week but came under sharp selling pressure on Thursday, erasing much of its previous gains. In the latest market snapshot, Bitcoin (BTC) is trading near 81600.00 (+0.9%), Ethereum (ETH) at 2400.00 (+2.1%), Tether (USDT) at 0.9991 (–0.01%), BNB at 744.00 (+5.1%) and XRP at 1.3250 (+4.8%). Total cryptocurrency market capitalization has declined to approximately $2.73 trillion, while Bitcoin dominance has increased to 60.0%. From October 19 to 22, US spot Bitcoin ETFs recorded net inflows of $439.1 million, while Ethereum ETFs saw outflows of $225.1 million. The market remains volatile despite the recovery attempt discussed in our previous crypto weekly review.

The BTC/USD pair remains within a medium-term downtrend, although last week’s price action was mixed. After U.S. forces launched Operation “Midnight Hammer” and Venezuelan leader Nicolás Maduro and his wife, Cilia Flores, were reportedly arrested on narco-terrorism charges, BTC rallied toward 94,700.00. Later, however, concerns about a potential January pause in the Federal Reserve’s easing cycle resurfaced, and “digital gold” gave back all of its gains. Today, price is attempting to regain upside momentum, with escalating tensions between the White House and the Fed potentially acting as a key catalyst.

Over the past four months, the SOL/USD pair has been steadily losing value, forming a clear descending channel. However, in early January the quotes resumed an upward move in line with the broader market trend, exited this channel by breaking above its upper boundary, and reached the 143.75 level (Murray level [3/8]). Despite this, the price failed to consolidate above it, and over the last two sessions a renewed decline has been observed. At present, the instrument is in a state of uncertainty: a breakout above 143.75 would accelerate the move toward the targets at 162.50 (Murray level [6/8], Fibonacci retracement 38.2%) and 175.00 (Murray level [8/8]). The key level for bears is seen at 125.00 (Murray level [0/8], middle Bollinger Band); a downside breakout there would likely lead to a return into the descending channel and a test of the levels at 107.40 (Fibonacci retracement 61.8%) and 93.75 (Murray level [3/8], W1).

The crypto community is debating a suspected US Bitcoin sale after reports claimed the Department of Justice liquidated BTC worth millions of dollars. Now Cynthia Lummis, the pro-crypto senator from Wyoming, has weighed in, expressing “deep concern” about the incident. She suggested that selling seized coins could conflict with Donald Trump’s March 2025 executive order establishing a strategic Bitcoin reserve.

At the beginning of the month, the XRP/USD pair resumed its upward movement in line with the broader market trend and recently reached three-month highs near 2.4140. However, it has since corrected moderately and is now holding around 2.2460 (Murray level [3/8]). The strengthening of the token has been supported by a combination of fundamental and technical factors.

For crypto, the framework is similar to traditional financial markets but comes with its own twist. Here, price action turns on liquidity, adoption, regulation, and flows from institutions alongside retail sentiment. Network health—hash rate, staking, active wallets—adds another layer. Macro still matters too: rates, dollar strength, and risk appetite shape inflows and outflows. Then, as with any market, you use the chart—trend, support and resistance, momentum, and volume—to spot setups and manage risk.
