Bitcoin Faces Pressure at $95,768 as Corporate BTC Purchases Decline

Bitcoin's price has dropped to $95,768 as corporate treasury purchases of the cryptocurrency have significantly slowed. Recent data indicates that weekly Bitcoin acquisitions by corporate treasuries have decreased to between $25 million and $50 million, a stark contrast to the billions added earlier this year. In October, companies added only 14,400 BTC, marking a 60% decline from September. Market analyst Satoshi Club attributes this slowdown to a reduced risk appetite within the crypto market. Notably, Strategy, under Michael Saylor's leadership, saw its Bitcoin holdings decrease by 15% to 640,808 BTC. Meanwhile, new entrants like Metaplanet and Coinbase have emerged as significant accumulators. The decline in corporate purchases coincides with broader market pressures, including ongoing US-China trade tensions.

Gold Rally Stalls at $4,300, Bitcoin Eyed as Alternative Store of Value

Gold's rally to a record $4,300 per troy ounce in October 2025 has paused, entering a consolidation phase amid geopolitical tensions and macroeconomic instability. Conflicts in the Middle East and between Russia and Ukraine, alongside U.S. trade policies under President Donald Trump, have fueled the surge. Economist Daniel Arráez suggests this pause may open the door for Bitcoin to be tested as a store of value and anti-censorship tool. Arráez predicts Bitcoin could experience a parabolic rally by the end of 2025, driven by macroeconomic factors rather than institutional adoption.

Bitcoin Shows Bottom Signals Amid Bearish Sentiment

Bitcoin is exhibiting multiple potential bottom signals despite prevailing bearish market sentiment. Analysts point to increased trading volumes around $100,000 and a decline in the Net Unrealized Profit (NUP) metric to 0.476, a level historically linked to market bottoms. This metric has previously indicated rebounds before significant Bitcoin rallies in 2024 and 2025. Additionally, the potential reversal of CME gaps and Bitcoin's position within its four-year cycle are under scrutiny. However, a key resistance cluster between $109,895 and $110,192 poses a significant challenge for any sustained recovery.

Bitcoin Miners Face Sharp Declines Amid Market Pullback

Publicly traded Bitcoin mining companies experienced significant declines this week, with major players like Cipher, Applied Digital, and Core Scientific seeing stock drops between 23% and 52%. This downturn comes as Bitcoin itself fell about 9% over the past week, trading around $94,400. Despite these setbacks, some miners have outperformed Bitcoin year-to-date, with IREN up 370% and Cipher Mining up 210%, compared to Bitcoin's 1.5% rise. The mining sector's challenges are compounded by the need to adapt to halving events, prompting many companies to diversify into AI and high-performance computing (HPC). Bitfarms announced plans to wind down its Bitcoin mining operations, converting facilities into AI and HPC data centers. Other companies, like Core Scientific and CleanSpark, are adopting hybrid strategies, integrating AI capabilities while maintaining some Bitcoin mining operations.

Bitcoin Faces 'Death Cross' Warning Amid Market Weakness

Cryptocurrency analyst Colin Talks Crypto has warned of an imminent 'death cross' for Bitcoin, signaling potential market weakness. Bitcoin recently fell to $95,000, and Colin noted its price is following a megaphone formation. A break below the lower band could worsen the outlook. The 50-day moving average crossing below the 200-day average, a bearish indicator, suggests further caution. Colin also highlighted the 50-week moving average and a weakening correlation with global M2 money supply as additional risks. Despite these concerns, he mentioned gold's recent rally as a potential delayed positive signal for Bitcoin.
