Why Did Bitcoin and Ethereum Plummet Despite Positive News? Christmas Sell-Off? How to Trade BNB, SOL, 67, U, BEAT, PIPPIN?
The cryptocurrency market is experiencing significant downturn despite positive news, with Bitcoin and Ethereum leading the decline. Analysts attribute this to potential "Christmas sell-off" behavior by large holders, worsening market liquidity, and intensified bearish momentum. Over $551 million in positions were liquidated in 24 hours, predominantly long positions.
Ethereum shows a strengthening weekly bearish trend, trading between 2800-3080. A breakdown could target 2100-2200, while holding 2800 may present buying opportunities. Bitcoin faces resistance at 90800-91600 with key support at 83600. Short-term trading suggestions include shorting BTC at 86500-87000 and ETH at 2900-2930.
Altcoins like PUMP, ONDO, and ORDI are hitting new lows. Notably, low-liquidity tokens like BEAT (with only $1M liquidity but $3B market cap) and PIPPIN are described as manipulative schemes where developers control over 90% of supply, exploiting funding rates to drain traders' capital. These are considered potentially worthless.
BNB's key level is 840 for a potential rebound toward 876, while SOL needs to hold 122 to target 134. The new stablecoin $U on Binance shows weak meme coin liquidity without strong market makers. The overall advice is to avoid chasing pumps in manipulated low-quality assets.
