After a few consecutive days of little to no actual action, bitcoin’s price surged Monday morning to just over $90,000, where it faced some resistance.<\/p>\n
This raises questions whether this latest rally is just another repeat of what has been transpiring for the past several weeks – breakout attempts to $90,000 followed by subsequent violent rejections and sideways action.<\/p>\n
CW attributed today’s price revival to a favorable alignment of retail and whales who are simultaneously buying BTC. The analyst believes that retail returning is of particular interest as they have sat on the sidelines for a while, especially since the October crash.<\/p>\n

In a separate post, CW explained<\/a> that almost all exchanges are showing strong BTC buying signals, especially Binance. They added that “whales who had been resting are back.”<\/p>\n
Ali Martinez, though, recently published a different view on the matter. He believes<\/a> the cryptocurrency is forming another dead-cat bounce before it “potentially makes another leg lower.”<\/p>\n
He justified his rather bearish prediction with the lack of actual positive capital flows. Just the opposite; the net capital flow has turned negative, dropping below $-4.5 billion.<\/p>\n
\n“This means money is currently leaving crypto rather entering it,” he concluded.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
The trend is similar to the spot BTC ETFs<\/a>, which have been bleeding out for months. As reported<\/a> recently, they went from almost $63 billion in net inflows in early October to well under $57 billion as of Friday’s close.<\/p>\n
For now, though, BTC is 2.3% in the green daily, trading close to $90,000. Its Monday resurgence has awakened some altcoins, such as ETH, which jumped past $3,000. BNB is above $860, while XRP has touched the crucial $1.90 support.<\/p>\n
