The Crypto Market Remains Stable but Has No Reason to Grow

Bitcoin Rebounds Slightly, But Selling Pressure Returns

The crypto market capitalisation has changed slightly over the past day, adding 0.1% to $3.83 trillion. Monday’s recovery was interrupted by a new wave of sales, albeit less intense. The bears seem to have had their fill and are already losing some of their strength. However, potential buyers prefer to wait for a reason to buy, and trading disputes do not yet provide such a reason.

The sentiment index has fallen back to 34 (fear) from 38, where it had remained for the previous two days. Away from the ‘extreme fear’ zone, the market does not attract the most desperate speculators, leaving room for further decline.

Bitcoin is trading at $112K, recovering some of Tuesday’s losses, during which the price fell from $115.6K to $110K. Since the start of the day on Wednesday, selling has prevailed again, but our focus remains on the $109–110K zone, where BTCUSD has found support in recent months. Has buyer interest remained at these levels, or has the balance of power shifted lower?

BNB is trading at $1180, almost 15% below Monday’s peak. This dynamic eloquently points to a change in cryptocurrency trading volumes, where a sustained decline is a sign of waning trading activity. From a technical analysis perspective, BinanceCoin has the potential to decline to the $1050-1100 range.
