Global markets are gripped by heightened risk-off sentiment and speculative fervor, driven by geopolitical tensions, fiscal risks, and sectoral cycles. Spot gold surged past $5,000, hitting a record $5,106, with Bank of America forecasting a rise to $6,000 by spring 2026. Silver also reached an all-time high above $109, supported by AI and solar industry demand.

Bitcoin's Key Channel Broken? History Won't Simply Repeat Itself | Invited Analysis

This analysis by Odaily's guest market analyst Cody examines Bitcoin's recent price action and potential future trajectories. The key technical focus is the breach of Bitcoin's critical rising channel support, which had been acting as a "lifeline" for the market since the November 21, 2025, low of $80,600. The report compares the current market structure to the 2021 cycle, noting a similar three-wave corrective pattern (A-B-C) but cautioning that history does not simply repeat itself. The recent break below the $94,500-$95,000 support zone confirmed a return to a wider consolidation range between $84,000 and $94,500. Key scenarios are outlined: * If the price fails to reclaim the rising channel's support, a bearish C-wave could drive the price down towards key support levels at $84,000, $80,600 (the B-wave starting point), and potentially $75,200. * A recovery above the channel support could lead to a retest of the $94,500 resistance and the 21-week moving average, though this would require supportive macro conditions. The analyst details a successful short-term trade from the previous week, which yielded a 3.76% return using a quant model-based strategy. Current market structure is assessed as bearish on weekly and daily timeframes, with the daily momentum indicator dipping below zero. The upcoming week's strategy involves monitoring the confirmed break of the channel support. Operational plans include potential short positions (with a 60% allocation for mid-term and 30% for short-term trades) targeting the $84,000 support, with strict stop-loss and profit-taking rules based on quant model signals.

Bitcoin's Key Channel Broken? History Won't Simply Repeat Itself | Invited Analysis

This analysis by Odaily's market analyst Cody examines Bitcoin's recent price action and potential future trajectories. The key technical focus is the breach of Bitcoin's critical upward channel support line, which had been acting as a "lifeline" for the market since the November 21, 2025, low of $80,600. The report compares the current market structure to the 2021 cycle, noting similarities but cautioning that history does not simply repeat itself. The current correction from the October 2025 high is analyzed as a potential three-wave structure (A-B-C). The recently concluded B-wave rally has potentially ended, and the market is now in a C-wave correction. Key support levels to watch are identified at $86,000-$86,500, $84,000, and crucially, the $80,000-$80,600 zone (the November low). A decisive break below the channel support, accompanied by a bearish crossover on the daily momentum indicator, could signal a resumption of the downtrend towards these targets. Conversely, holding above the channel could lead to a retest of resistance near $94,500. The analyst details a successful short trade from the previous week, yielding a 3.76% return, executed based on a confluence of signals from proprietary quantitative models. The weekly and daily charts are currently assessed as bearish. The recommended strategy for the coming week involves preparing for a potential breakdown below the channel with short positions (60% for mid-term, 30% for short-term trades), employing strict risk management with trailing stop-losses.

67% of Binance traders are long on Chainlink – Is LINK ready to reclaim $14.15?

Chainlink (LINK) is trading near a key support level of $11.90, with 67% of Binance traders holding long positions, indicating a strong bullish bias. Despite a 35% drop in trading volume suggesting market hesitancy, derivatives data shows traders are positioning for a potential rebound. Key liquidation risk zones are identified at $11.85 and $12.45. If the $11.90 support holds, analysts project a possible 16% rise toward the $14.15 resistance level. A break below this support, however, could lead to further downside. The Average Directional Index (ADX) reading of 25.42 confirms a strong directional trend is in play.

Bitcoin: THIS BTC metric hints seller fatigue – $93k bounce or $86k breakdown?

Bitcoin is consolidating between $88k and $91k after a sharp drop from its recent high. Despite a weak structure, analysts note signs of seller exhaustion as the Growth Rate Difference metric improves, suggesting reduced selling pressure. Bullish momentum is returning, with a strong demand wall at $89k and consecutive positive signals in the BvB EMA. However, bears remain stubborn, and a key momentum indicator signals a risk of further decline to $86,270 if bulls fail to hold. If bullish momentum is sustained, a bounce to $93k is possible. The market is at a critical decision point between recovery and breakdown.

Dispelling the Fog of Stablecoin Payments: Actual Payments Account for Only 10% of Total Transaction Volume

Stablecoin payment volumes are often misinterpreted, with only about 10% of total transaction activity representing real-world payments such as remittances, B2B transfers, or payroll. While annual stablecoin transaction volumes are reported at around $35 trillion, Artemis Analytics and McKinsey analysis reveals that the actual payment volume is approximately $390 billion in 2025—double the previous year—yet still only 0.02% of global payment flows. The majority of stablecoin transactions come from exchange-related activities, arbitrage, internal transfers, and automated smart contract operations rather than end-user payments. True payment usage is concentrated in specific regions and use cases: Asia leads with 60% of payment volume, followed by North America and Europe. B2B payments dominate, accounting for $226 billion and growing rapidly. Despite the current niche adoption, stablecoins show strong potential due to advantages in speed, transparency, and cost—especially in cross-border and corporate payments. The market is still in early stages, and realizing its full potential will require clearer data interpretation, regulatory development, and strategic investment in practical applications.
