According to @CryptoMichNL, BTC failed to clear the $90,000 resistance and retraced to test $86,500, which held as support (source: @CryptoMichNL on X, Dec 25, 2025).

He cites a likely liquidity rotation toward commodities and loosening macro conditions, calling for the Nasdaq to reach an all-time high and for Bitcoin to run toward $100,000 (source: @CryptoMichNL on X, Dec 25, 2025). Key trading levels highlighted are $86,500 as support and $90,000 as resistance, with a break above $90,000 signaling bullish continuation toward the $100K target in his view (source: @CryptoMichNL on X, Dec 25, 2025).

He adds that if a correction unfolds, crypto markets are more likely than not to surge afterwards, with a Nasdaq breakout to a new all-time high serving as an additional tailwind for risk assets (source: @CryptoMichNL, Dec 24, 2025).

According to @CryptoMichNL, BTC has been range-bound between $85K and $90K for multiple weeks, with $86K eyed as support and $90K flagged as the crucial breakout level for renewed upside momentum (source: @CryptoMichNL on X, Dec 24, 2025). He expects risk-off flows in commodities into the final trading day due to stretched upside, while a commodities peak and a Nasdaq push to a new ATH could align with a BTC surge as early as next week after Christmas (source: @CryptoMichNL on X, Dec 24, 2025).
