The Line Between Hope and Pressure || Oct 25, 2025
Bitcoin holds near $111K as traders debate whether the next big move comes from conviction or exhaustion.
🪙 Crypto Market Overview
Bitcoin is trying to find balance around $111,000 after another rejection from the high-potential breakout zone near $112,000.
The week’s key macro catalysts — U.S. CPI and PMI data — have stirred optimism that a resilient economy may continue to support risk assets, especially if the Fed’s next move is easing rather than tightening.

⚙️ Technical Picture
Bitcoin continues to trade within its wedge pattern, with the $112,000 level acting as a magnet for both liquidity and frustration.
The structure is now simple: a sustained break above $112,200 could ignite a rally toward $118,000–$122,000, while repeated rejections risk a decline to $108,800 and possibly the $100K region if momentum fades.
The upper wedge coincides with short-side liquidations, while long liquidations cluster below. This compressed setup suggests a sharp directional move is imminent.
Bulls must reclaim $114,000 soon to avoid turning October into one of Bitcoin’s weakest months since 2020.
📊 On-Chain & Market Flow
💡 Our model indicates early signs of stabilization after a volatile week — suggesting selling pressure is starting to ease.
💡 Liquidity remains balanced, with no major leverage bias; this helps limit forced-liquidation cascades.
💡 Retail sentiment is still cautious but improving, a constructive shift after weeks of fear.
💡 For Ethereum, on-chain signals show resilience above $4,080, while Solana’s rising development activity and address count hint at renewed strength if $190 support holds.
🌞 Altcoin Spotlight: Solana (SOL)
Solana is quietly building momentum.
Its on-chain data point to a potential rebound toward $238–$245 if $190 remains intact, supported by rising developer activity and user engagement.
Sentiment remains overly negative — a contrarian setup that has historically favored medium-term rallies.
Still, caution is warranted near $192, where short-term resistance and volatility could create better entries.
💬 Final Thoughts
Bitcoin is holding firm, but pressure is mounting.
A decisive move above $115K could shift the monthly structure back to bullish, while another rejection near $112K may invite deeper tests of support.
Solana’s improving fundamentals stand out as a bright spot in an otherwise hesitant market.
Until volatility resolves, patience remains the best trade.
🎯 Strategy Outlook
Short-Term (Days) — Neutral / Volatile
Medium-Term (Weeks) — Bullish above $120K
Long-Term (Months) — Cycle target ~ $230K valid unless $72K fails
