Entering the Asian trading session, Bitcoin is attempting to hold the critical support level of $91,000 after experiencing a significant decline yesterday. Market analysts generally believe that this recent correction is a normal adjustment following the rapid rise at the beginning of the year—after all, virtual assets surged so much in less than a month, and it’s not surprising that many investors have started to take profits, leading to increased selling pressure.
According to market data, Bitcoin fell over 2% yesterday, even dropping to $90,629 at one point during the session. The overall crypto asset sector is also not very optimistic, with an index tracking the top 20 cryptocurrencies declining nearly 4%, with XRP performing the worst, dropping more than 8%. Ethereum also declined by 3.6%, even though Morgan Stanley announced plans to launch a spot Ethereum ETF, which seemingly failed to provide support.
Interestingly, this round of selling coincided with the Nasdaq rising slightly by 0.5%, and the situation in precious metals is also quite complicated—gold fell back by 1%, while silver dropped even more sharply, shrinking by 5%.
Regarding digital asset concept stocks, although MSCI announced a few days ago that it would temporarily exclude MSTR from its index, this news did not provide a significant boost to the sector. MSTR itself performed relatively well, rising by 1% barely, but other related stocks were quite weak, with Bitmine Immersion down 6%, Sharplink Gaming down 2%, and XXI down 5%.
From the weekly chart, the ratio of MSTR to iShares Bitcoin Trust has been bouncing near the 3 level for the second consecutive week, currently stable around 3.11. Looking back to March 2024, this ratio was supported around 3 before rising steadily, eventually reaching a peak of 9.5 in November last year, which was also when MSTR hit a record high. Currently, the key focus for the bulls is whether the support at 3 can continue to hold, as this will be crucial for the subsequent trend.

If you can't hold 91,000, then it will directly drop to 91,000 below, and it seems like a pullback is coming again.

Back to the scene of dreams shattered after recovering, can we hold on to 91,000, brothers?

If 91,000 can't hold, the bears are really going to make a move...

If you can't hold onto 91,000, this wave of adjustment might not be so simple...

If 91,000 can't be held, the next level is 90,000, then 89,000...at this pace, there will be a lot more people cutting losses.

If the 90,000 level can't hold, then next week you'll be waiting to be trapped.

If you can't hold on to 91,000, then it's all about the 7s now. This wave really hurts.
