Data from CoinGlass shows bitcoin is down more than 22% so far in the fourth quarter, making 2025 one of the weakest year-end periods outside of major bear markets.

What to know:

  • Bitcoin's price is nearing $90,000, offering a short-term boost to the crypto market, but analysts remain cautious about a significant recovery.
  • The total crypto market capitalization has surpassed $3 trillion, yet analysts warn that the rebound may be driven by exhaustion rather than renewed confidence.
  • Bitcoin remains about 30% below its 2025 peak, with the market still vulnerable to sharp reversals, particularly during U.S. trading hours.
