Bitcoin seems to be preparing for a rebound in the first week of 2026. Currently, the trading price of Bitcoin is 1.344 billion KRW, up 1.81% in the past 24 hours. After closing last year with a 6% decline, factors such as increased liquidity, rising “anti-dollar” trading, and capital transfers triggered by overheating in the precious metals market are driving market expectations for its rise.
Technical indicators also show an improving trend. Bitcoin’s Relative Strength Index (RSI) is approaching oversold levels, suggesting a potential rebound. Especially around Friday’s US employment data release, increased volatility is expected, along with the upward potential driven by short-term buying interest.
Market experts are optimistic about Bitcoin challenging the previous October 2025 high of $125,689. Bitcoin, which has held above key support levels, is currently continuing a positive technical trend.
Ethereum is trading in the 4.6 million KRW range, up 1.20% in the past 24 hours. After reaching a high near $5,000 in 2025, it is now maintaining around $3,000. Market analysis indicates that Ethereum is likely to be a core asset in 2026, with capital flows expected to focus on high-quality altcoins.
Ripple (XRP) and Solana (SOL) are also following the market leaders, both showing upward trends. Ripple is trading at 3,101 KRW, and Solana at 197,798 KRW. However, no significant fundamental changes have been observed yet, and mainstream interpretation suggests that the bullish market sentiment is spreading.
The cryptocurrency market in 2026 is expected to be influenced by the Federal Reserve’s policy direction and global economic indicators. Inflation and interest rate changes are likely to be major variables. Experts mention that under expectations of rate cuts, demand for risk assets is increasing again, and the market may reorganize around BTC and ETH.
With the expansion of institutional investor participation, the stability and liquidity of the cryptocurrency market are expected to further strengthen in the future.
