“The crypto market capitalisation has fallen by more than 6% over the last day to $3.26 trillion, its lowest level since early July,” Alex Kuptsikevich, FxPro chief market analyst, said in emailed comments.
“The crypto market has set lower local lows, confirming the downward trend. Since its peak on October 7, the crypto market capitalisation has fallen by more than $1 trillion, or 24%, which technically means the beginning of a bear market. If the rules of stocks apply here, then we should prepare for a further decline of approximately 20%, or around $1 trillion.”
Bitcoin has now erased its year-to-date gains, with the latest drop under $100,000 leaving traders feeling increasingly uncertain.

“Once the price fell below the crucial $100,000 level, it confirmed a descending channel that had been forming since mid-October, right after the massive liquidations,” Arthur Azizov, founder of B2 Ventures, said via email.
“I pay close attention to the $89,000–$94,000 zone as this is where liquidity is concentrated right now. If sellers keep putting pressure, the worst-case scenario is a return to the April 2025 $72,000–$74,000 band, where a real bullish impulse began and let bitcoin rise almost to $127,000, setting a new all-time high.”
Like many in the bitcoin and crypto space, Azizov remains upbeat over the long-term but is being worn down by the declining market.
“Looking ahead into the year-end and the beginning of 2026, I still see what’s happening now as a healthy consolidation until a clear bearish signal appears,” Azizov said. “Even though the chances for recovery are decreasing daily, they still exist.”
