Bitcoin's New Year Volatility Rebounds: Can Macro Signals Break the Deadlock?

Whether it's guidance from interest rate cut signals or the direction of economic meetings, they all tell the same story: pessimists are often wrong, and optimists tend to win.

On the first late night of 2026, Bitcoin suddenly dropped from $89,000 to $87,000, with mainstream cryptocurrencies falling across the board. Over 160,000 traders were liquidated in 24 hours, with $228 million in funds evaporating. Within a day, the return of market liquidity driven by the reopening of Western and European institutions pushed Bitcoin back to $89,000, and Ethereum surpassed the $3,050 mark.

Currently, the market's bulls and bears are engaged in a fierce battle. Tonight's US market will serve as a short-term testing ground. If prices face resistance and fall back, the market is likely to continue range-bound oscillations; if resistance is broken, caution is needed for a "rise and fall" scenario. The real turning point depends on macro factors. Bitcoin's movement remains tied to USD liquidity and global regulatory developments. Key events such as January CPI data and FOMC meetings will influence the subsequent direction. Rational responses to high-volatility markets are essential—avoid blindly following the trend, wait patiently for macro signals to materialize, beware of leverage traps, and plan rationally.

In turbulent times, true gold emerges; change hides new opportunities. Whether to go with the flow or ride the wave depends on your choice—control always remains in your hands.
