Bitcoin Price Prediction: BTC Rejected at $95,000 as Liquidation Heatmap Points to $80,000

Despite a sharp weekend dip following Donald Trump’s latest tariff threats against eight European countries, Bitcoin has managed to find support at $93,000. BTC is still down 2.66% on the day, while the broader crypto market cap is approximately $3.14 trillion, marking a 2.61% daily decline.

According to the Bitcoin liquidation heatmap from Coinglass, there is way more liquidity sitting below the current price, especially around the $90,000 area, compared to above it.

That tells you a lot of traders are leaning long, so if price slips and support breaks, forced selling could kick in fast and snowball. On the upside, liquidity is thinner and more spread out, meaning price would need real demand to push higher, not just shorts getting squeezed

Bitcoin just got rejected again from the $94,500–$95,000 zone. At this point, that area is clearly acting like a ceiling. Every push into it keeps getting rejected, and this latest one sparked a sharp pullback that dragged BTC back into the middle of the range, killing short-term momentum.

On the downside, the $87,000 level is the big one to watch. It lines up with prior consolidation and range lows. If that support gives way, price could slide pretty quickly into the lower demand area around the low $80,000s.

RSI is sitting around 37, which indicates that momentum has cooled off quickly and is starting to lean bearish. However, it is not oversold yet. That means there is still room for more downside before buyers really have to show up. MACD has rolled over, too, backing up the idea that this move was a rejection, not a healthy dip.

Overall, Bitcoin is still range-bound. Bulls need a clean reclaim and hold above $94,500 to open the door toward $100,00. Continued weakness keeps the risk skewed toward another test of lower support.

The Channel Factories We’ve Been Waiting For

The Channel Factories We’ve Been Waiting For

The post The Channel Factories We’ve Been Waiting For appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Visions of future technology are often prescient about the broad strokes while flubbing the details. The tablets in “2001: A Space Odyssey” do indeed look like iPads, but you never see the astronauts paying for subscriptions or wasting hours on Candy Crush.  Channel factories are one vision that arose early in the history of the Lightning Network to address some challenges that Lightning has faced from the beginning. Despite having grown to become Bitcoin’s most successful layer-2 scaling solution, with instant and low-fee payments, Lightning’s scale is limited by its reliance on payment channels. Although Lightning shifts most transactions off-chain, each payment channel still requires an on-chain transaction to open and (usually) another to close. As adoption grows, pressure on the blockchain grows with it. The need for a more scalable approach to managing channels is clear. Channel factories were supposed to meet this need, but where are they? In 2025, subnetworks are emerging that revive the impetus of channel factories with some new details that vastly increase their potential. They are natively interoperable with Lightning and achieve greater scale by allowing a group of participants to open a shared multisig UTXO and create multiple bilateral channels, which reduces the number of on-chain transactions and improves capital efficiency. Achieving greater scale by reducing complexity, Ark and Spark perform the same function as traditional channel factories with new designs and additional capabilities based on shared UTXOs.  Channel Factories 101 Channel factories have been around since the inception of Lightning. A factory is a multiparty contract where multiple users (not just two, as in a Dryja-Poon channel) cooperatively lock funds in a single multisig UTXO. They can open, close and update channels off-chain without updating the blockchain for each operation. Only when participants leave or the factory dissolves is an on-chain transaction…

Franklin Templeton CEO Dismisses 50bps Rate Cut Ahead FOMC

Franklin Templeton CEO Dismisses 50bps Rate Cut Ahead FOMC

The post Franklin Templeton CEO Dismisses 50bps Rate Cut Ahead FOMC appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Franklin Templeton CEO Jenny Johnson has weighed in on whether the Federal Reserve should make a 25 basis points (bps) Fed rate cut or 50 bps cut. This comes ahead of the Fed decision today at today’s FOMC meeting, with the market pricing in a 25 bps cut. Bitcoin and the broader crypto market are currently trading flat ahead of the rate cut decision. Franklin Templeton CEO Weighs In On Potential FOMC Decision In a CNBC interview, Jenny Johnson said that she expects the Fed to make a 25 bps cut today instead of a 50 bps cut. She acknowledged the jobs data, which suggested that the labor market is weakening. However, she noted that this data is backward-looking, indicating that it doesn’t show the current state of the economy. She alluded to the wage growth, which she remarked is an indication of a robust labor market. She added that retail sales are up and that consumers are still spending, despite inflation being sticky at 3%, which makes a case for why the FOMC should opt against a 50-basis-point Fed rate cut. In line with this, the Franklin Templeton CEO said that she would go with a 25 bps rate cut if she were Jerome Powell. She remarked that the Fed still has the October and December FOMC meetings to make further cuts if the incoming data warrants it. Johnson also asserted that the data show a robust economy. However, she noted that there can’t be an argument for no Fed rate cut since Powell already signaled at Jackson Hole that they were likely to lower interest rates at this meeting due to concerns over a weakening labor market. Notably, her comment comes as experts argue for both sides on why the Fed should make a 25 bps cut or…
