December 19 — Per Decrypt, as 2025 wraps up, the outlook for Bitcoin and the broader crypto market is cautiously optimistic at best. Some analysts, though, predict investors could see a bullish trend in 2026. Since hitting a high of $126,080 on October 6, Bitcoin has sold off continuously, stabilizing around $84,000 by November 22 — a sign sustained selling pressure may have eased. The Relative Strength Index (RSI), a momentum gauge for assets, dropped below the oversold threshold of 30. This pattern has played out five times since 2023, and each time Bitcoin followed with a bullish move. Julien Bittel, Global Macro Research Director at Global Macro Investor, notes that if history repeats, Bitcoin could climb to $170,000 in less than three months.

The Block reported on December 19th, citing Dune Analytics data, that Hyperliquid has seen over $430 million in outflows this week—marking the third-largest outflow in the platform’s history. The protocol’s Total Value Locked (TVL) has fallen from over $6 billion in mid-September to roughly $4 billion. Meanwhile, its native token HYPE has dropped nearly 20% amid a broad market downturn over the past week. While on-chain data doesn’t necessarily reveal traders’ specific motives, competition among decentralized perpetual contract platforms may have driven fund rotation. During these outflows, rivals like Lighter and Aster have surged in DEX perpetual contract trading volume rankings this year, chipping away at Hyperliquid’s dominance in the space.
