The recent Bitcoin price change has left investors in a state of uncertainty, as the cryptocurrency has seen a sharp decline from its peak of nearly $107,000 to around $94,550. This volatility raises critical questions about Bitcoin's ability to maintain its rally and whether it can regain its footing in the coming weeks.

CryptoQuant analyst Shayan had something important to say about the current situation in Bitcoins. According to him, the price is trying to settle just above the $92,000 value level, which he says is the main support.
He notes that Bitcoin is becoming stable near the $92,000 mark, which he recognizes as a critical support area. If Bitcoin breaks below this level, it could trigger a wave of prolonged meltdown and push prices down to the 100-day moving average of $81,000. Also, this line has been performing as a really dynamic support by attracting buying inflows and can also reduce prices when they come down.
Shayan emphasizes the role of market sentiment and technical indicators. At the moment, Bitcoin is changing at important support levels that are formed in the $90K level and Fibonacci levels at $87K and $82K. If the above levels do not hold, there could be more selling pressure with corrections.

In a tweet, he said, “Bitcoin history is just repeating itself. January will turn green. You'll regret not buying more here.” His analysis suggests that if Bitcoin can break through the $100,000 critical resistance level, it could barrel past $107,000.
A large flow of capital
Rover's confidence has been boosted by the huge capital inflows Bitcoin ETFswhich attracted more than $900 million of inflows from institutions like Black Rock and Loyalty. Increasing institutional interest also signals confidence in Bitcoin's long-term prospects. However, he also warns that failure to close above the $100,000 mark will lead to a pullback to $92,000 or even lower.
The broader cryptocurrency market is also feeling the pressure. This decline comes in conjunction with the failure of Bitcoin to stay ahead, and other cryptocurrencies such as Ether and Solana has fallen more than 7%.

Even the traditional stocks of the crypto sector, such as MicroStrategy and Coinbase, have declined significantly. Falling funding levels within the derivatives market add another level of bearish sentiment about Bitcoin. According to Shayan, the declining funding levels were reflected in the declining demand for derivatives, which were also very important in maintaining price movements.
