Bitcoin Stuck in $80,000–$95,000 Range, Possibly Undergoing 'Time-Driven Capitulation'

Odaily News Bitcoin's current narrow consolidation phase resembles the range observed in April 2025. Since November 21st, Bitcoin has been trading between $80,000 and $95,000. This duration is roughly similar to the period from late February to early April 2025, when it fluctuated between $76,000 and $85,000. That consolidation lasted 52 days and concluded with a new upward rally, ultimately peaking above $126,000 in October. Traders refer to this scenario as "time-driven capitulation," where prolonged, dull price action leads impatient holders to exit the market. In recent years, as Bitcoin has matured as an asset without experiencing the extreme drawdowns seen in earlier cycles, "time-driven capitulation" has become the norm. (CoinDesk)
