Bitcoin has tested the anticipated support zone around the 90K level. The price is holding for now, but don't mistake it for strength—spot market selling has been relentless since yesterday. Most of the buying pressure is coming from perpetual futures, which tells you something about retail vs institutional positioning right now. The real move will come when we see spot buyers stepping back in. Watch for a reclaim of the previous swing high's point of control. That's your entry confirmation if you're looking to re-establish long positions. Until then, we're in a holding pattern between supply and demand.

Spot trading is still crashing, while futures are holding on; this is the current situation.

Spot trading is really crashing, while futures are just pretending. This is the current truth. Only when spot trading absorbs the sell-off will there be hope.

90K held up but that's not a good thing, spot market has been crashing... contract traders are holding on, waiting for spot to pick up. Basically, retail investors are taking the hit from institutional players' knives, it's hilarious.

Before the spot market picks up, it's all just virtual; the contracts won't last long.

Spot selling keeps going, contracts are holding up, this wave feels a bit fake.

Perpetual contracts are just supporting the market, while spot trading is still being sold... This is outrageous.
