Crypto markets are in a bit of a pickle right now. Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Solana are all feeling the heat. A well-known analyst, who goes by DonAlt, thinks that political news is messing with the usual market patterns. Bitcoin's recent attempt to bounce back hit a snag. It couldn't break through a key resistance level, which means it might slide further. DonAlt points out that markets are now more about reacting to news than following technical trends. He thinks the talk about Greenland is making things choppy and unpredictable.
From a technical standpoint, Bitcoin's bullish reversal didn't work out. It closed the week below a crucial resistance zone, which is not a good sign. DonAlt is staying on the sidelines for now, waiting for clearer signals. He won't jump in until Bitcoin can reclaim the $103, 000–$104, 000 range. As for other cryptocurrencies, Ethereum is holding up better than most, but it's still stuck in a range. Solana is looking shaky after testing support levels too many times. Litecoin has lost its upward trend, and Bitcoin Cash is seen as a risky bet. DonAlt describes the current market as a "boredom phase" with high risk. Geopolitical uncertainty is making it hard to predict which way the market will go. Patience seems to be the best strategy right now.
