📢 Crypto Market News – December 29, 2025
Market Overview: The Final Week Volatility Welcome to the last trading week of 2025. The global crypto market cap has ticked up to $3.18 Trillion. Volatility is returning as Wall Street opens for the final "window dressing" days of the year. Traders are expecting a choppy session as funds finalize their Q4 balance sheets.
Bitcoin (BTC) Tests $90,000 Again Bitcoin started the week aggressively, briefly touching $90,150 in the early Asian session before retracing to $89,800.
Key Resistance: The $90k psychological wall is being battered. A daily close above this level today would confirm a "Blue Sky Breakout" heading into 2026.
Support: Immediate support holds strong at $88,800.
Institutional Action: MicroStrategy Buys More Breaking news this morning: MicroStrategy has announced another acquisition of 5,000 BTC at an average price of $89,200. This signals continued institutional confidence even at these all-time high valuations, acting as a massive floor for the price.
Tax-Loss Harvesting: Final 48 Hours Analysts warn that selling pressure on underperforming altcoins (specifically older "dino coins" like ADA and LTC) might peak today and tomorrow. Investors are selling these assets to realize losses for tax purposes before the December 31st deadline. Conversely, this often creates a "January Bounce" opportunity for these oversold assets.
Ethereum (ETH) Gaining Momentum Ethereum is outperforming Bitcoin slightly today, trading at $3,080. The ETH/BTC ratio has bounced off a multi-year support, suggesting a potential rotation into large-cap altcoins as traders look for better ROI percentages in the new year.
