🗞️ Crypto Daily | January 16, 2026

The market this morning maintains a slow but steady growth, reflecting cautious sentiment as capital still prioritizes confirming the trend rather than early FOMO. Key points you need to understand 👇

Bitcoin (BTC): Slight Correction, Accumulation
• Price: $95,677 (+1.2%)
• BTC is accumulating below the $97,000 – $98,000 zone, unable to hold near the $100K mark.
• Important zones:
• Holding $95,000 → the scenario to move up to $100K remains valid.
• Losing $95K → potential retreat to $92,000 to find new demand.
• Funding rate stabilizes around 97K, indicating leverage is being reduced, and the upward trend is becoming more sustainable.

Ethereum (ETH): Stable, Not Explosive Yet
• Price: $3,321 (+0.7%)
• ETH moves sideways within a narrow range, increasing more slowly than BTC.
• ETH/BTC ratio weakens slightly → capital still favors Bitcoin, and altseason truly needs more time.

Macro & Industry News
• Visa partners with BVNK to enable instant global stablecoin payments, promoting crypto applications in traditional finance.
• US banks warn that stablecoins are drawing significant deposits away from the banking system.
• Brazil dismantles a crypto scam that steals hundreds of thousands of USD each month.
• CoinGecko: over 53% of crypto projects have “died,” with 86% of tokens failing in 2025 alone → the market is undergoing a strong cleansing.
• TRX remains above $0.30, confirming a breakout of the descending wedge pattern.
• Deribit launches TRX options (with daily, weekly, monthly, quarterly expirations), opening doors for institutional capital.
• Whales and stablecoin market cap growth continue to support TRON’s upward trend.

Risks to Watch
• BTC’s rally stalls around 97K, indicating the market needs more time to absorb buying pressure.

Quick Conclusion
