Bitcoin price rose to near $93,000 on Friday before sell-off pressure resumed.
\nEthereum and XRP also climbed but faced key hurdles around $3,000 and $2.25.
\nSentiment remains downbeat across the crypto market despite notable gains for a few top altcoins.<\/p>\n
The cryptocurrency market continued to witness a mixed outing on Friday, with Bitcoin retesting the $92,500 mark while Ethereum and XRP both broke to key resistance areas.<\/p>\n
While gains indicated renewed investor optimism amid broader economic uncertainties, the swift retreat to below $91k for BTC highlights the fragile market sentiment.<\/p>\n
Also, while Sky, Monero and Bitcoin Cash gained<\/a>, Zcash, Dash and Aptos led the top losers in the leading 100 coins by market cap.<\/p>\n Bitcoin\u2019s price marked a decisive breach of the $92,500 resistance level by rising to near $93,000.<\/p>\n On Friday, the benchmark asset hit highs of $92,969 across major exchanges. However, the level has proved a robust barrier that means the quest to break higher towards the psychological $100 mark continues to evade bulls.<\/p>\n QCP Group analysts shared the short-term Bitcoin price outlook via an X post<\/a>. They see mid-$90k levels as key supply wall zones, while major support remains in the $82k-$80k area.<\/span><\/p>\n \u201cOptions markets show caution even as year-end<\/span> BTC<\/span> call open interest stays heavy. Skew, IV and sentiment have softened, reinforcing a rangebound profile. Supply likely caps moves toward mid-90Ks, while support sits near 80\u201382K, leaving macro catalysts firmly in control of direction.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n Despite the dip to below $91k as of writing, BTC\u2019s gains earlier in the day allowed layer-1 and layer-2 solutions on the Bitcoin network to post gains.<\/p>\n As noted, BounceBit and Stacks were among the Bitcoin ecosystem tokens to see an uptick.<\/p>\n But as prices have dipped again, rather than bounce higher, this latest move could be a dead cat bounce.<\/p>\n Like Bitcoin, Ethereum has struggled to sustain momentum. Recently, the top altcoin fell to lows of $2,600 after closing above $4,000 in late October. The breach of the $3,000 level threatened more pain for bulls.<\/p>\n However, after testing the demand reload zone, the ETH price has jumped back to the resistance area above $3,000.<\/p>\n That\u2019s despite a 25% dip over the past month.<\/p>\n While prices are nearly 9% up in the past week, ETH\u2019s inability to break higher reflects broader altcoin fatigue. Bitcoin\u2019s drop to $90,504 at the time of writing suggests a potential downward cascade for ETH.<\/p>\n XRP has fared similarly, trading at $2.18 amid a 1.4% dip in the past 24 hours.<\/p>\n The token faces formidable overhead resistance at $2.25 and at $2.50. Per market data, the latter marks a level at which bulls have struggled since the crash on Oct. 10,2025.<\/p>\n The launch of spot XRP ETFs in recent days has failed to help bulls break higher.<\/p>\n The post Crypto market mixed as Bitcoin tests $93K, Ethereum and XRP hit major resistance<\/a> appeared first on CoinJournal<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Bitcoin price rose to near $93,000 on Friday before sell-off pressure resumed.
