Bitcoin is completing its first full trading week in 2026 almost unchanged, fluctuating around the $90,000 level. This is approximately 2% less than a year ago. The cryptocurrency failed to break the $95,000 mark, which effectively leaves it below the price ceiling since the significant sell-off last October. This is reported by Bloomberg, writes UNN.

We are seeing classic consolidation after a rally. The lack of legal certainty regarding tariffs and the future leadership of the Fed is forcing major players to refrain from active actions.

James Butterfill of CoinShares emphasized that the macroeconomic environment creates "headwinds" for risky assets in the near term.
