Per Coinglass data: - If Bitcoin rises above $89k, cumulative short liquidation intensity across major centralized exchanges (CEXs) will hit $518 million. - Conversely, if Bitcoin drops below $86k, cumulative long liquidation intensity will reach $603 million. BlockBeats Note: The liquidation chart does not display the exact number or value of contracts being liquidated. Instead, its bars reflect the **relative importance** of each liquidation cluster versus adjacent ones (i.e., "intensity"). In short: The chart signals how strongly a given price level will impact markets. Higher bars mean reaching that price will trigger a more intense reaction driven by a liquidity cascade.

Cointelegraph reported on December 25 that Jeff Mei, Chief Operating Officer of BTSE, outlined two key scenarios for Bitcoin and Ethereum in Q1 2026 tied to Federal Reserve policy: - **If the Fed holds interest rates steady**: Bitcoin could dip to $70,000, while Ethereum may fall to $2,400. - **If Reserve Management Purchases (RMPs) continue**: The liquidity injection would support risk assets, pushing Bitcoin to $92,000–$98,000. Ethereum could rise to $3,600, driven by Layer 2 scaling upgrades and growing DeFi appeal—with over $50 billion in ETF inflows and institutional accumulation further boosting the market. Notably, the Fed ended quantitative tightening (QT) on December 1 and launched RMPs, buying ~$40 billion in short-term Treasuries monthly—an move some analysts call "stealth quantitative easing (QE)."

On December 25, Tom Lee said: "There are positive developments in the financial services sector. Financial firms will be key beneficiaries of both AI and blockchain technology—both can help cut their reliance on human capital." He added: "I therefore believe tech-enabled large banks may see margin expansion ahead and perform more like tech stocks. JPMorgan Chase and Goldman Sachs could emerge as the next U.S. tech giants."
