Chainlink: Can $19 mln in whale buys help LINK break out?

Chainlink (LINK) is trading in a tight consolidation range around $12.65, creating a buying opportunity for large investors. On-chain data reveals significant whale accumulation, with 11 new wallets purchasing 1.567 million LINK (worth $19.8 million) from Binance over three days. This whale activity, coupled with consecutive days of negative exchange netflow, suggests strong demand and reduced selling pressure. If buyer momentum continues and LINK holds above the $12.6 support level, a breakout toward the $14.5 resistance is possible. However, failure to maintain this level could see the price drop back to $11.8.

Bitcoin rejected at $90K again as gold correlation turns negative

Bitcoin faced another rejection near the $90,000 level on December 22, reinforcing the area as strong resistance amid a pattern of declining highs since early December. The short-term correlation with gold has turned negative, dropping to around -0.14, indicating Bitcoin is behaving more like a high-risk asset than a macro hedge. This shift often precedes increased volatility. Key support lies at $86K–$87K, with a break below potentially targeting $83K. A clear break above $90.5K is needed to restore bullish momentum. The market remains range-bound, balancing fading macro support and hesitant demand.

Wall Street’s bid on crypto dominated 2025 but what’s the demand outlook for 2026?

Wall Street's embrace of crypto dominated 2025, with massive institutional inflows into spot Bitcoin ETFs reaching $57 billion. However, the market faced a correction late in the year, raising questions about 2026's demand outlook. Key factors include the continuation of institutional adoption, the impact of AI industry growth on risk assets, and potential regulatory clarity from the Clarity Act. Federal Reserve policy shifts and rate cuts are viewed as bullish, but may collide with a softening job market and rising consumer costs. The performance of tech equities and the monetization of AI investments will also significantly influence crypto markets. Overall, 2026 presents a bullish macro backdrop, but its trajectory hinges on these complex, interconnected narratives.

Bitcoin’s holiday rally: Are BTC bulls setting up a classic bear trap?

Despite a weak Q4 that erased 63% of Q2-Q3 gains, Bitcoin's market dominance remains strong near 60%, indicating underlying confidence as capital stays parked rather than rotating to altcoins. Altcoin dominance (ex-top 10) hit a five-year low at 6.73%. With thin holiday liquidity and $5.8 billion in leveraged shorts clustered near $95k, technicals suggest a potential bear trap. Oversold conditions, including an RSI of 35 and six weeks of consolidation under $90k, could fuel a short squeeze. A breakout may trigger a holiday rally, targeting $95k as near-term resistance.

Bitcoin Is Entering A Window For A Santa Rally, Analyst Says

Bitcoin is showing signs of a potential Santa rally, according to CryptoQuant analyst Axel Adler Jr. The market’s current “Regime Score” sits at +16.3, placing it in the upper neutral zone (+15 to +30), which historically has delivered average returns of +3.8% over 30 days. This suggests a tactical bullish setup without excessive optimism. Additionally, the derivatives market shows a skew toward short liquidations, creating mechanical upward pressure as forced buyers enter the market. However, Adler cautions that entering the formal Bull regime (above +30) has historically coincided with local tops. The current “bullish neutrality” offers a favorable window for upside, though a drop in the Regime Score below zero or a shift toward long liquidations would signal exhaustion. Bitcoin traded at $89,864 at the time of writing.

2025: DeFi Completes Its 'Coming of Age', Three Turning Points Define the New Landscape

2025 marked a maturation phase for DeFi, characterized by clearer credit cycles, growing institutional inflows, and more robust trading venues. On-chain credit expansion resumed in the second half of the year, driven by renewed risk appetite. Real World Asset (RWA) tokenization saw explosive growth, with public-market RWAs surging from $5.6B to $16.7B, led by tokenized U.S. Treasuries and commodities. Perpetual DEXs hit record volumes, capturing 18.7% of total perp trading volume, as platforms like Hyperliquid, Lighter, and Aster competed aggressively. Prediction markets also gained traction, with Polymarket and Kalshi attracting major institutional investments. However, spot DEX activity remained subdued and shifted across chains, with Solana-based volumes declining significantly while BNB Chain absorbed retail speculation. Composability also introduced systemic risks, as seen in the November collapse of Stream Finance, which triggered contagion across interconnected protocols. Overall, DeFi in 2025 moved toward a more sustainable equilibrium, with mature primitives and expanding institutional adoption setting the stage for future growth—though macro conditions and risk management remain critical.

EU council endorses offline and online versions of digital euro

The Council of the European Union has endorsed the European Central Bank’s design for a digital euro, supporting the simultaneous launch of both online and offline versions. A key feature is the offline digital euro, which aims to function like cash by allowing device-to-device transactions without internet connection and preventing user activity tracking. However, the system faces security challenges, such as vulnerability to relay attacks exploiting near-field communication (NFC). The European Data Protection Board has expressed concerns, noting that physical proximity—a core feature of cash—is difficult to enforce digitally. Both versions would store private keys in certified devices like smartphones or cards. ECB President Christine Lagarde emphasized that final approval depends on EU lawmakers.

ETHZilla liquidates $74.5M in Ether to redeem convertible debt

Cryptocurrency treasury firm ETHZilla liquidated 24,291 Ether (worth $74.5 million) to redeem outstanding convertible debt, according to a filing with the SEC. The sale leaves the company with approximately 69,800 ETH remaining on its balance sheet. ETHZilla recently rebranded from a biotech firm and pivoted to an Ether-focused investment strategy. The move reflects a broader trend of digital asset companies repositioning amid a crypto market downturn, with other firms like FG Nexus and Sequans Communications also selling portions of their crypto holdings to manage debt and strengthen their financial positions.
