- Bitcoin has reclaimed $92,000 after a weekend rebound
- Strong resistance remains near the $93,000 level
- Analysts see $100K more likely in February than January
Bitcoin has reclaimed the $92,000 level following a strong weekend rebound, briefly touching $93,000 before running into resistance. According to CoinGecko data, BTC is up 1.3% on the daily charts, 2.8% over the past week, 4.4% in the 14-day timeframe, and 3.2% over the previous month. Despite the recovery, Bitcoin remains down 5.7% since January 2025, keeping the focus on when — not if — it can retake $100,000.
Why Bitcoin Is Moving Higher Again
Bitcoin last traded above $100,000 on Nov. 13, 2025, shortly after setting a new all-time high in October. Since then, momentum across the crypto market has cooled as investors shifted capital into traditional safe havens like gold and silver, both of which printed multiple new highs over the past few months.
The latest BTC upswing appears tied to improving short-term sentiment. Expectations of greater geopolitical and economic stability, combined with traditional markets being closed over the weekend, likely redirected some capital back into crypto. Still, the move lacks strong confirmation, and broader risk appetite remains fragile.
Can Bitcoin Reach $100K in January 2026?
While the rally has been encouraging, macroeconomic uncertainty continues to weigh on markets. Slower global growth, cautious central banks, and risk-averse positioning suggest Bitcoin may struggle to sustain sharp upside moves in the near term.
CoinCodex analysts also expect a delay before BTC reclaims six figures. The platform forecasts Bitcoin climbing toward $99,000 around January 9, followed by a short-term pullback. According to their projections, BTC is more likely to break above $100,000 on February 16, 2026, rather than in January.
What Comes Next for BTC
Bitcoin’s ability to hold above $92,000 will be key in determining whether this rebound evolves into a larger trend reversal. A clean break above $93,000 could open the door to another attempt at $100,000, while failure to maintain current levels may invite renewed consolidation.
For now, the path higher looks gradual rather than explosive, with Bitcoin still dependent on improving macro conditions and sustained inflows.
