Bitcoin (BTC) traded near $66,749 at press time, while market activity stayed muted across major digital assets.
The asset was down slightly in the past 24 hours, while seven-day gains stood at 0.81%. Daily trading volume reached $19.67 billion.
That price action came during a period of weak movement in the market. Analysts tracked a narrow range in Bitcoin and pointed to low activity across the wider crypto sector. Altcoins also showed soft volume and thinner liquidity during the same period.
Analysts track a possible end to the squeeze
Crypto analyst Michaël van de Poppe said volatility on Bitcoin’s four-hour chart had dropped to its lowest level since the broader breakdown. He said the market was nearing the end of a volatility squeeze that usually does not last much longer under similar conditions.
Van de Poppe also said altcoins showed the same pattern, with low volatility, low volume, and low liquidity. Despite the geopolitical backdrop, he wrote that he would not expect a much deeper move lower and instead saw a possible liquidity sweep followed by a quick recovery, “most likely during next week already.”
Crypto market commentator EGRAG CRYPTO pointed to longer-term chart structure. He said past Bitcoin cycle bottoms repeatedly reached the 1.618 Fibonacci level before the market formed a base.
He described that level as an area where fear often peaks and accumulation starts. The post framed that view as a structure-based reading rather than a reaction to short-term headlines. The account also urged traders to focus on charts and numbers instead of outside narratives.
At the same time, traders watched new posts from The Kobeissi Letter about comments attributed to Donald Trump on Iran and the Strait of Hormuz.
The account also said Trump planned a news conference with the US military at 1 PM ET on Monday. Those headlines added another layer of caution for crypto traders.
