PANews January 11 News, Crypto analyst Willy Woo wrote that he is optimistic about Bitcoin’s performance from late January to February, but currently bearish on 2026.
Willy Woo stated: “The internal investor capital flow model predicts that Bitcoin bottomed on December 24 and has been steadily strengthening since then. Usually, it takes 2-3 weeks for this to be reflected in the price, and it can be said that this is happening now (just suppressed by short-term overbought technical indicators). Another positive factor is that the liquidity of fiat currency (futures market) is recovering after months of stagnation, similar to mid-2021, which led to the second top of the previous cycle. Therefore, the resistance level of -@E1@ USD needs to be defended. If this resistance is broken, the next step is to observe the resistance at ATH.
However, I remain bearish on 2026 because, from a macro perspective, since January 2025, liquidity relative to price momentum has been weakening. We are currently in the final stage of a hot zone, where momentum lacks sufficient liquidity support. If in the coming months a large influx of spot (long-term) liquidity breaks the downtrend, my view will change. It is worth noting that a bear market has not yet been confirmed, and confirmation would manifest as continued outflow of Bitcoin funds (a lagging indicator of cycle top).”

ETH short-term decline of 1.12%: macro liquidity disturbances and whale position reduction resonance intensify volatility
On March 5, 2026, from 16:00 to 16:15 (UTC), the price of Ethereum (ETH) recorded a -1.12% return within 15 minutes, with a price range of 2056.69 to 2087.34 USDT, and an amplitude of 1.47%.

BTC 15-minute sharp decline of 0.90%: liquidity gap area and macro risk aversion resonate, triggering short-term selling pressure
On March 5, 2026, from 16:00 to 16:15 (UTC), Bitcoin (BTC) experienced a -0.90% return within a short time window, with the price ranging from 70,800.8 to 71,653.9 USDT, and an amplitude of 1.19%. This anomaly occurred amid heightened market attention, with volatility significantly increasing, investor sentiment turning cautious, and trading volume and on-chain activity remaining high, intensifying short-term trading pressure.
The main driver of this anomaly is that BTC is in a "gap zone" — meaning liquidity above 72,000 USDT is extremely thin, with only about 1% of circulation.
