Bitcoin price below $100,000: Is this the beginning of a deeper crash?
Bitcoin fell to 107K after losing key support. Analysts warn that a drop below 107K could trigger a slide toward 100K or even lower.
Bitcoin Price Drops Sharply Again
Bitcoin is once again testing traders' nerves. The leading cryptocurrency has dropped sharply from $116,000 to around $107,300, marking a significant 3% decline within 24 hours. This sell-off follows a series of lower highs since mid-October, intensifying concerns that Bitcoin's bullish momentum may be weakening.
The daily chart shows Bitcoin struggling to stay above the 200-day Simple Moving Average (SMA), which is currently near $109,800. This key line has acted as dynamic support throughout 2025, and a decisive break below it could accelerate bearish sentiment.
Bitcoin Price Analysis: Key Levels to Watch
The $BTC/USD daily chart clearly depicts vulnerability. After repeatedly failing to reclaim the $111,000–$112,000 range, sellers have regained control. Momentum indicators have also turned bearish:
- RSI (Relative Strength Index) is near 40, indicating weakening buying pressure.
- The MACD line remains below zero, suggesting momentum may continue to tilt downward.
- The 50-day moving average is below the 200-day SMA, with a potential bearish crossover forming.

If Bitcoin closes decisively below $107,000, a key psychological threshold, a large number of stop-loss orders could be triggered, leading to further declines.
Short-Term Bitcoin Forecast: What If Bitcoin Breaks Below 107K?
If the 107K support fails, the next key areas to watch are:
| $106,000 | Minor support at June volatility low | ⚠️ High |
| $100,000 | Psychological round number and previous breakout level | 🔥 Very High |
| $92,800 | Historical confluence point from February consolidation | ⚠️ Medium |
| $75,000 | 2024 support floor and long-term bullish defense line | 🧊 Low (unless panic selling occurs) |
A drop toward $100K would confirm a mid-term correction phase, erasing nearly all gains from the summer rebound. A break below $92,800 could further lead to $75K, where Bitcoin found strong buying interest at the start of 2024.
Bullish Bitcoin Outlook: Can Bitcoin Recover From Here?
For bulls, hope is not entirely lost. Bitcoin remains within its long-term ascending channel and is still above last year's average range. To negate the bearish outlook, BTC must reclaim $111,000 and then close the daily candle above $116,000 to reestablish higher highs.
Until then, the market remains fragile. The technical structure suggests traders should closely monitor the $107K–$100K area, as any breakout could trigger volatility across the broader crypto market.

The AI boom may follow the path of the 19th-century railway bubble, and builders may not be the ultimate winners
Goldman Sachs analyst Bobby Molavi compared the current situation to the 19th-century British railway mania: 500 companies spent more than the nation's annual income building 8,000 miles of railway, with most early investors losing out, while the real beneficiaries were the later "passengers." He pointed out that the current AI craze is driven by both debt and momentum, and that the S&P 500’s forward P/E ratio of 18x is only "a bit cheaper." Whether the builders can retain value is uncertain, and history does not offer an optimistic answer.
If Anthropic's IPO goes smoothly and the stock price rises next week, then everything remains the same for AI. Otherwise, some companies will go bankrupt.

Multiple venture capital firms have advised their portfolio companies to lower valuation expectations and to quickly build up cash reserves. Market participants warn that the outcome of Anthropic’s IPO will be a barometer for the industry: if successful, the boom will continue; if it fails, some companies may face elimination.
