#数字资产市场洞察 **Market Rhythm Key — Focus on Macro Data in Recent Focus**



Bitcoin's trend today is stable, but the real test lies in the next two days. Tomorrow, CPI and non-farm payroll data will be released, and the day after is the yen interest rate decision — these three time points will directly impact market nerves. The long-term low rate of the yen has enabled global investors to adopt arbitrage strategies: borrowing yen to buy US stocks and US bonds to earn interest rate spreads. Once the rate hike is implemented, arbitrage trades will likely reverse, potentially triggering a sell-off in US stocks and bonds, which could spill over into the crypto market, with panic sentiment easily spreading.

**Technical Analysis: Where is the Key Support?**

From the candlestick chart, Bitcoin faces strong resistance around 93,000-94,000. It previously fell from this area and is now stuck near 85,000 — this level is a watershed. If it falls below this, it could trigger panic selling. Conversely, if signs of stabilization appear around 85,000 and it refuses to fall further, that presents a buying opportunity. If tonight’s US stock market opens and Bitcoin weakens and pulls back, the 85,500-86,000 range could be considered for long positions.

Looking ahead to 2026, once the Fed’s rate cut window opens, it is likely to ignite a new bull market. But before that, Bitcoin may test the bottom — some institutions expect it could fall to 75,000 or even around 50,000 before starting to rise. Remember these two levels, as they represent future risks and opportunities.

**Ethereum and Other Coin Strategies**

For those going long around 3000 on Ethereum, the target rebound is 3150. Conversely, if Bitcoin stays above 88,000, a short position on Ethereum at 2980 can be tried, with proper stop-loss settings.

Coins like PIP, BEAT, FLOKS are highly volatile; short-term arbitrage still has potential. LAB showed a rebound earlier but did not truly break out; holding spot positions is advisable, as it may need a period of consolidation before breaking through.

PIPPIN bounced from support at 0.29-0.32, initially expected to rebound to around 0.45, but surged to 0.52-0.53. This coin’s control ratio by the whales is not low, so shorting should be cautious. However, it can be considered for short-term trades near support levels.

MON can be placed at 0.014 for bottom-fishing orders. ZEC recently broke the double top and started recovering; if the 416 level cannot hold, consider shorting. BEAT’s volatility is truly outrageous, with the whale’s tactics causing the funding rate to dance as well. The price fluctuates repeatedly; be cautious with small shorts around 2.4.

The yen interest rate hike is really a ticking time bomb. When it explodes, those who are caught in arbitrage liquidations will probably cry their eyes out. --- Breaking the 85,000 line means we're truly done for. Those who bet it won't hold up are probably going to cut their losses. --- Is Bitcoin heading down to 50,000? Brother, your expectations are way too pessimistic. The funds can't withstand it. --- I'm tired of PIPPIN's manipulative tactics. Repeatedly teasing short-term traders is really outrageous. --- How many times have they said the Fed would cut interest rates and trigger a bull market? I don't believe it anymore. --- Shorting ETH at 2980? I think it's uncertain. More people are going long now than shorting. --- LAB is just going to consolidate. Holders, hang in there a bit longer, no need to rush. --- Small coins are indeed risky, but they also make a lot of money. That's the magic. --- Once the CPI data is released tomorrow, the market will definitely have big fluctuations. No one can predict the direction. --- ZEC's technicals have indeed collapsed recently. If 416 can't hold, it will continue to fall.

The recent interest rate hike in the Japanese Yen might be the bottoming point; otherwise, the arbitrage orders could explode and cause a crash, which is really unplayable. Wait, can really hold at 85,000? It feels like this level is bound to break. PIPPIN, this coin's whale is so aggressive, still daring to short-term buy-in? Forget it, I’ll stay on the sidelines. If the 50,000 level really comes, I’ll have to borrow money to buy the dip, even though I can't afford the coins. The BEAT on the small coins side is really outrageous; the fee rates are dancing, and it’s not worth playing. Listening to the range between 85,500 and 86,000 is fine; we’ll see about the real trading later. What’s there to be afraid of? Be cautious with short positions around the ZEC level; if it doesn’t break, it’s easy to get whipped around.

The yen interest rate hike really needs to be watched closely; arbitrage liquidations may not be far off. Forget it, let's stay on the sidelines. The 85,000 level is really hard to call. PIPPIN's recent surge is a bit crazy; the main force's moves are quite deep. It's both consolidating and bottoming out, it feels like there will still be some turbulence this year. Small cap is really a playground for gamblers haha. The Fed's rate cut window won't open until 2026; how much longer do we have to wait? This wave of market movement is similar to last year's rhythm, starting to get caught in the same trap again. Note the 50,000 level first; if it really gets tested, it could be a big win. I think ZEC still has a chance; try above 416. Ethereum's current trend still feels like it's searching for a bottom.

The yen's interest rate hike really could cause disruptions; we can't avoid being affected when arbitrage positions exit. The 85,000 level is truly critical; once broken, it's game over. PIPPIN's market makers are really ruthless, doubling so quickly from 0.52. Be very careful when shorting now. If Bitcoin really drops to 50,000, that would be a real buying opportunity. BEAT's volatility is so outrageous that I don't dare to touch it; who can handle the rate swings? Tomorrow's CPI release will probably cause another bloodbath. Hold on, everyone. I'm considering a short at 2980 on ETH, but I need to set a proper stop-loss or I might get liquidated. If ZEC can't hold above 416, I'll admit defeat; I can't play this double top. The 2026 bull market has huge potential, but for now, we just need to survive and get through it. I've placed an order at 0.014 for MON, just waiting for the bottom to be hit.

The key timing of the Yen rate hike really needs to be watched closely; crypto might be very uncomfortable when arbitrage turns around. It's that 85,000 life-and-death line again; breaking it would be a major event. Regarding small coins, BEAT really wears out the players' patience, and the fee rates are twitching. The 2026 bull market sounds far away, but the current bottom-detection phase is indeed quite torturous. Short ETH at 2980? That's a pretty risky move.
