【Crypto World】It’s time for another test. On December 26th, over $23.6 billion worth of Bitcoin options are set to expire, and the “big pain point” of this round of options just happens to be around $96,000—this price level is critical for both bulls and bears.

The current situation is a bit delicate. The outflow of funds from the US spot Bitcoin ETF has decreased to its lowest point this year, which somewhat reflects a cooling of institutional interest. On the price front, Bitcoin is fluctuating around $87,106, with resistance at $90,647 and support at $83,986.

Honestly, this range is testing patience. Volatility before options expiration is often significant, depending on how institutions operate, and the battle between futures and spot markets is also quietly ongoing. Both bulls and bears are eyeing the critical $96,000 mark—who can take control here might determine the next move.
