Pudgy Penguins will collaborate with Carebears for the release of a special edition physical collectible as announced in their official statement. The mechanism involves leveraging IP crossover to introduce Pudgy Penguins holders and enthusiasts to established mainstream collectibles via physical merch. Such collaborations can drive brand awareness, attract new holders from outside the crypto-native community, and boost demand for associated NFTs and possibly tokenized assets. Historically, prominent brand partnerships have had positive effects on short-term NFT floor price and community engagement, though longer-term impact depends on execution and secondary market performance. The announcement details are available in this official tweet.

Hyperlane is hosting their final community call of the year, led by co-founder @thePalenimbus, as detailed in their official announcement. These calls typically offer updates on development progress, roadmap adjustments, and insight into any upcoming integrations or protocol changes. For tokenholders and observers, such events may contain forward-looking disclosures or news capable of impacting short-term price volatility depending on the significance of the updates shared. Participation levels and sentiment expressed during the call could also provide clues about project health and near-term investor confidence.

The Bitcoin market appears to be riddled with an increasing amount of sell-side pressure, as its recent price action reveals bears’ dominance. Interestingly, another on-chain evaluation suggests that the current market movement may be a direct effect of rising panic-induced sales. 

$1.7B Realized Losses Vs $605M Realized Gains

In a Quicktake post on the CryptoQuant platform, GugaOnChain shared that the Bitcoin market has been in a capitulation phase in recent days. This on-chain observation revolves around the Bitcoin Realized Profit and Loss ($) metric.

For context, this metric tracks the actual profits (in US dollars) and losses investors realize—or lock in—whenever they offload their Bitcoin holdings to exchanges. 

GugaOnChain highlighted that about $1.705 billion worth of BTC has been realized in losses by market participants. On the other hand, a relatively smaller amount, totaling approximately $605 million, was reportedly realized in gains.

A technical indicator called liveliness is rising, which historically signals bull run activity and could mean that this market cycle is not over yet, say analysts.

“Liveliness continues to march higher this cycle despite lower prices, indicating a floor of demand for spot Bitcoin that is not reflected in price action,” said technical analyst “TXMC” on Sunday.

The analyst explained that the “elegant metric,” which is like the long-term moving average for onchain activity, is a running sum of all lifetime spending compared to holding activity onchain. 

“It rises when coins are net transacting and falls when they’re being held, scaling by the age of those coins,” they added.

Fellow analyst James Check observed that liveliness has been range-bound since the 2017 peak, up until now.

Bitcoin finds itself at a critical crossroads, hovering between two major price zones that could define its next big move. Buyers and sellers are locked in a tight battle, and the market now waits for a decisive break. A push above key resistance could open the door to $107,000, while weakness at support risks a deeper slide toward $71,000.

Bounce Scenario: A Return Toward The Pink Box And Descending Trendline

Kamile Uray, in her latest update on Bitcoin, noted that BTC failed to hold above the $90,720 level on the hourly chart, triggering the expected decline. The first immediate support now sits at $87,644, while the deeper support range lies between $83,822 and $82,477. If buyers defend this zone successfully, Bitcoin could attempt another climb toward the pink box region and retest the descending trendline overhead.

Uray explained that a sustained move above the pink box resistance on the daily timeframe would open the door for Bitcoin to challenge the descending blue trendline. A confirmed breakout from this area could strengthen bullish momentum, pushing the price toward the next major resistance levels at $98,200 and $107,500. A break above $107,500 alongside the descending trendline would serve as a strong signal that the broader uptrend is ready to continue.

However, she warned that a daily close below $82,477 would shift the market structure toward further weakness, placing Bitcoin at risk of revisiting lower levels. Even so, Uray highlighted one critical area of strength: the $74,496–$71,237 zone. This region represents the key breakout top from November 2024 and is considered a strong historical support. In this area, buyers may step in aggressively, potentially setting the stage for an upward reversal.

Bitcoin Price Rejection At $93,000–$95,000 Zone

According to Crypto Candy, Bitcoin’s latest price action has been unfolding precisely in line with expectations. After facing rejection in the $93,000–$95,000 resistance zone, BTC dipped sharply and nearly touched the anticipated support range at $86,000–$87,500. This move reflects the broader market’s reaction to heavy selling pressure near the upper resistance band.

Crypto Candy emphasized that the $86,000–$87,500 zone now serves as a crucial pivot area. If buyers successfully defend this support and the price stabilizes above it, Bitcoin could once again revisit the $93,000–$95,000 range, or even push beyond it.

Such a rebound would signal renewed bullish momentum and set the stage for another attempt at breaking higher resistance levels. However, the analyst also warned that failure to hold the $86,000–$87,500 support could trigger deeper downside movement. If the level gives way, Bitcoin may slide to lower price zones in the coming days as bearish pressure strengthens.

Ethereum led digital asset investment products with $138.7 million in 24-hour net inflows, according to data from Artemis.

The blockchain platform has been attracting consistent positive inflows through Ethereum ETFs and corporate accumulations in recent months.

Ethereum operates as a leading blockchain platform enabling decentralized applications, smart contracts, and tokenization of real-world assets. The platform has recently implemented the Fusaka upgrade, delivering important optimizations, such as PeerDAS, that strengthen overall network performance.

The network remains a leading platform for hosting stablecoins and tokenized assets, supporting on-chain liquidity and adoption across the digital asset ecosystem.
