📈 Digital Financial Market Analysis January 4, 2026: Bitcoin Breaks Through at the Beginning of the Year


The cryptocurrency market in the first week of 2026 is starting off with great enthusiasm, as green spreads strongly after the consolidation phase at the end of the year.
1. Bitcoin (BTC): Breaking Through Psychological Resistance
Bitcoin has officially made a significant breakthrough, bringing great confidence to investors in the early days of January.
Trading Range (last 24 hours): BTC has mainly traded sideways in a narrow range from $89,000 to $90,000. This is a period of market "compression" awaiting new momentum.
Current Status: As of this morning (January 4, 2026), the price of BTC has surged past the $90,000 mark and is currently trading steadily above $91,000.
Assessment: Breaking through the $91,000 mark is not only a price milestone but also a psychological victory. This trend indicates that buying pressure is dominant, and the next target could be conquering new highs in Q1 2026.
2. Ethereum (ETH): Consolidating Its Position Above $3,100
Ethereum also recorded growth in sync with the leading cryptocurrency, maintaining a very stable price structure.
Current Price: ETH is trading above $3,100.
Assessment: ETH holding firm above $3,100 is a positive sign for Layer 2 ecosystems and decentralized applications. This upward trend demonstrates the sustained interest of institutional capital in smart contract platforms.
3. Market Overview
Investor sentiment (Fear & Greed Index) is gradually shifting towards the Greed zone as the market witnesses a breakout in Bitcoin. Trading volume is starting to increase again as investment funds restructure their portfolios for the new year.
