Bitcoin's recent performance has indeed been underwhelming, while Ethereum surprisingly stole the spotlight.
First, regarding BTC, holding the 89,300 level today is considered decent. But the problem is that the 90,300 hurdle has yet to be broken; only if it breaks above that can there be further upward movement, otherwise it might dip again at any time.
Ethereum is even more unpredictable. The dip early yesterday was extremely smooth, wiping out the unrealized gains of a whale at address 1011—that's over 10 million USD in unrealized profit previously. But this whale has a big-picture mindset and is now fully committed with a 450 million USD ETH long position, showing great confidence. The only question is whether it will be hunted in a reverse trap.
From a technical perspective, ETH has several key levels: the support at the whale’s cost basis of 3,177; if broken, then watch 3,140; if that breaks, then 3,070; the final line of defense is the lower boundary of the parallel channel at 3,033. On the upside, the 3,215 rebound high has not been broken yet; if it is surpassed, focus on 3,250, where resistance is quite strong.
As for altcoins, LIGHT has recently rebounded quite sharply. Around 1.35-1.36 could be considered for observation, but this coin is highly volatile—don't fight it aggressively.

90300 is truly a tough nut to crack, BTC is just stuck here
That whale in ETH looks a bit risky... 450 million USD long position, is it a gambler or a genius?
Don't touch LIGHT, this demon coin. I have friends who got trapped in it.

BTC is still hesitating there, but I am optimistic about ETH this time. The whale's 450 million+ order is really bold.

If 89,300 can't hold, it's really dangerous. Once broken, we still have to continue probing bottom out.
Wait, is this whale really holding a $450 million ETH long? If this wave reverses and hunts...
Don't touch this coin LIGHT, it's too unpredictable.
BTC is still consolidating. When will it stabilize above 90,300?
The mega whale is fully long on margin. I really respect that.
ETH's technical analysis looks quite complicated. Once 3,177 breaks, let's just watch the show.
Why does it seem like the crypto market is getting bolder lately, going all in on longs?
The person at address 1011 indeed has a big vision. Even after losing floating gains, they still add to their position.

Bitcoin this wave is indeed boring, ETH whale's move is really ruthless
Speaking of holding a full position with 450 million USD, aren't you afraid of being hunted in reverse?
I really don't dare to touch LIGHT, this demon coin. The last time I challenged it directly, the guy is still in the hospital now
