Bitcoin is currently battling around the $90,000 mark, having briefly fallen to $89,967 today to test the resilience of this psychological threshold. Ethereum performed even weaker, under pressure below $3,100, with the latest quote at $3,077.

The market is digesting two major factors: first, the anticipation of the US Supreme Court's tariff ruling; second, the fluctuations in macroeconomic data. JPMorgan's latest research indicates that the recent sharp sell-off may be nearing its end, but this does not mean the risks are gone. Institutional investors generally agree that the current environment remains highly volatile, which in fact provides opportunities for short-term traders.

On the regulatory front, the US Crypto Market Structure Bill will enter a critical voting stage, and regulatory battles in the DeFi sector are intensively unfolding between Wall Street and the industry.

Security alert: Decentralized protocol Truebit was recently attacked, with approximately 8,535 ETH stolen, reminding users to strengthen account protections during high volatility periods.

Bitcoin at 90,000 yuan is really crashing. Is this wave of selling finally making everyone give up? JPMorgan is bullish again, but I just can't believe it. It's another Truebit hack. DeFi security is really worrying. Can my withdrawal speed keep up with being hacked? High volatility is heaven for short-term traders, but for us noobs, it's hell haha. When is the bill voting? The Wall Street and crypto circle drama has been going on forever and still hasn't ended. Ethereum is sitting below 3k. Honestly, this price is making me a bit tempted... but I think I'll wait a bit. Short-term opportunity? I just want to be safe and not get robbed, thank goodness. After the Truebit incident, I trust centralized platforms even more. Irony or not? Regarding the tariff ruling expectations, it feels like everyone is guessing what the Supreme Court of the United States is thinking. With such big fluctuations, I might as well just buy some financial products.

Still fluctuating around 90,000 again, really annoying Eth so weak, how am I supposed to survive JPMorgan Chase says risk is lifted, I only believe it when it happens High volatility is truly a paradise for short-term traders Truebit was hacked for over 8,500 ETH? Damn, these days even protocols are unsafe Regulatory votes are coming, Wall Street is about to mess with us again Is there support below $90,000? That's a question for the market With such big fluctuations, account protection must be a priority In the short term, it's better to hold and wait, things are too chaotic

Around 90,000 repeatedly tugging back and forth, is this wave about to break again? Once again, Truebit got hacked. You really need to take care of your private keys. JPMorgan says the sell-off is nearing the end, I don't believe you. Short-term snipers should be ecstatic now; high volatility means money. Ethereum is so weak that it's a bit scary. Can't hold 3100?

theoretically speaking, if we map the current price action through a recursive SNARK lens... btc's 89.9k test is basically just state verification happening on-chain. eth bleeding under 3.1k tho? that's when cross-rollup arbitrage opportunities start getting spicy fr
