Bitcoin's 2026 new year rally falters at $90,000 support

Bitcoin's strong start to 2026 has weakened, with the cryptocurrency hovering near a key $90,000 support level after peaking close to $95,000 amid diminishing bullish momentum.

Bitcoin kicked off 2026 with robust gains, surging to nearly $95,000 on renewed enthusiasm. However, the rally has quickly lost momentum, leaving the price vulnerable just above the critical $90,000 support level.

Market observers note fading bullish sentiment, raising concerns of a potential breakdown that could lead to further declines. This shift underscores the high volatility in cryptocurrencies, even following promising early-year advances.

Traders remain vigilant, as holding above $90,000 is seen as essential for maintaining upward potential at the start of the year.
