The weakness is consistent with the dour mood in Nasdaq futures triggered by Oracle's earnings miss, and follows a 25 bps Fed rate cut. Traders said the hawkish forward guidance, projecting just one rate cut in 2026 and the growing divide among policymakers, overshadowed easing and pushed risk assets lower. Some analysts said that with the last major event done and implied volatility falling, a big rally into year-end may not happen. Moreover, flows to ETFs would not need to pick up substantially for prices to surge. Consider this: We have not had a single day of over $500 million in net spot ETF inflows in the U.S. since Nov. 11, according to data source SoSoValue. Prior to that, the last was on Oct. 7. This is a marked slowdown compared to November-December 2024, when the ETFs collected that much at least one or two days per week. The same can be said for the April to October period, also characterized by an upswing in BTC from $70,000 to over $126,000. In short, flows are king and it remains to be seen if they meaningfully recover in the days ahead to lift prices into the new year. For now, here is some positive news: According to BRN, large holders (10–10k BTC wallets) have added roughly 42,565 BTC since Dec. 1, a clear smart-money accumulation signal. Meanwhile, short-term holders and retail are still trimming positions. In other key news, Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin has thrown his weight behind Fileverse , a decentralized, open-source encrypted document platform that aims to be a Web3-native alternative to tools like Google Docs. In a note on X , he said the project has spent the past few months fixing a series of bugs and is now stable enough for secure document sharing, commenting, and collaboration “without further issues.” In traditional markets, the 10-year U.S. Treasury yield recovered from the post-Fed low of 4.11% to 4.14%, once again showing stickiness on the higher side. ING analysts have said that it's likely to rally sustainably than drop.

BTC vs gold market cap: 6.05% Technical Analysis BTC's daily chart in candlestick format. (TradingView) The chart shows BTC's daily price swings in candlestick format since September. Wednesday's Fed rate cut hasn't changed the technical picture, as BTC remains stuck in a counter-trend rising channel within the broader downtrend. A clear breakout above the upper end of the counter trend channel would signal a bearish-to-bullish trend change.
