Bitcoin stabilizes at the $90,000 mark, as the market searches for a new direction after the Federal Reserve cuts interest rates

Bitcoin remains resilient after the Federal Reserve’s third rate cut this year, with a brief correction but still stabilizing above $90,000. Over the past 24 hours, the cryptocurrency market has declined by about 3%, mainly due to traders’ disappointment with policy expectations and large holders selling off. Previously, the market widely bet on a dovish stance, so after briefly reaching $92,000, Bitcoin experienced profit-taking, causing Ethereum, Solana, XRP, ADA, and Dogecoin to fall in tandem. The overall market cap also dropped from $3.22 trillion to $3.07 trillion.

There are still disagreements within the Federal Reserve on the future direction of monetary policy, and plans to potentially purchase up to $40 billion in Treasury bonds over the next 30 days have further increased market uncertainty. With no additional rate cuts in the near term, investors are turning their attention to the next FOMC meeting in January 2026.

From a technical perspective, Bitcoin’s failed attempt to break through the $93,000 to $94,000 range has shifted market focus to key support levels. Analysts believe that the $88,000 to $89,000 zone may be tested again. If this level holds, BTC could resume its upward trend; if broken, it could further decline to $85,000.

On-chain data also provides important signals: when realized losses on the chain fall below 37%, it typically indicates a better buy-the-dip zone. Currently, this value is around -18%, indicating the market is in a potential bottoming phase, and investor sentiment is gradually improving.

As of December 11, 2025, Bitcoin’s price is reported at $90,298, a slight decrease of about 2% for the day. If the price falls below $90,000, short-term downward pressure could intensify; if it can rebound past $95,000, Bitcoin may return to an upward trend. Technical indicators show that the MACD indicates weakening buying momentum, and the RSI is at 45, suggesting neutral market sentiment, with the short-term trend likely to continue oscillating sideways.
