Bitcoin Slips 1.2% as Volume Thins Near $100K Support

Published at 2025-11-12 21:07:33

CoinDesk Research's technical model shows bitcoin at $101,341.64 after a pullback Tuesday from a recent high of $103,413 to $101,775, a decline of about 1.24% as the market struggled to clear the $102,000 resistance. The move leaves BTC trading close to the critical $100,000 psychological support, with price action appearing rangebound for now.

Traders noted the drop came on tepid turnover — volume only 2.11% above seven-day averages — which suggests current moves lack strong conviction and could leave bitcoin vulnerable to outsized reaction around the $100K mark. That combination of thin participation and proximity to a key round-number support means market direction may hinge on new catalysts, such as macro news, ETF flows, or on-chain developments.
