The top crypto dipped 4.65% to around $110,000, mirroring a global equity slump after China imposed restrictions on five US firms linked to South Korea’s largest shipbuilder, warning of further retaliation.<figure><div><img src="https://imageproxy.pbkrs.com/https://s3.tradingview.com/news/image/cointelegraph:4cd962aea094b-fdbb4d8491549b617a31d78d08dbb408-resized.jpeg?x-oss-process=image/auto-orient,1/interlace,1/resize,w_1440,h_1440/quality,q_95/format,jpg" width="1049" height="600" original-src="https://imageproxy.pbkrs.com/https://s3.tradingview.com/news/image/cointelegraph:4cd962aea094b-fdbb4d8491549b617a31d78d08dbb408-resized.jpeg"/></div></figure>Bitcoin’s $110,000 level has repeatedly flipped between resistance and support in 2025. Earlier rejections triggered 19–30% declines, while post-July rebounds from this zone fueled 12–15% rallies. Let’s examine how low BTC could go if the $110,000 support fails.Bitcoin's broadening wedge hints at $100,000Multiple analyses suggest that the odds of the BTC price declining toward $100,000 increase if the $110,000 support level fails to hold.That includes a “giant bullish channel” highlighted by chartist BitBull, which showed BTC price fluctuating inside a broadening wedge.<figure><div><img src="https://imageproxy.pbkrs.com/https://s3.tradingview.com/news/image/cointelegraph:4cd962aea094b-48ba7023c608dbad3579ac0dbc595ab0-resized.jpeg?x-oss-process=image/auto-orient,1/interlace,1/resize,w_1440,h_1440/quality,q_95/format,jpg" width="472" height="600" original-src="https://imageproxy.pbkrs.com/https://s3.tradingview.com/news/image/cointelegraph:4cd962aea094b-48ba7023c608dbad3579ac0dbc595ab0-resized.jpeg"/></div></figure>As of Tuesday, Bitcoin was in the middle of a correction stage after testing the wedge’s upper trendline as resistance. Historically, such corrections exhausted near the channel’s lower trendline, which coincides with the $100,000-$103,000 area.This region also aligns with Bitcoin’s 50-week exponential moving average (50-week EMA, represented by the red wave) and the 1.618 Fibonacci retracement line, lending technical weight to it as a potential target zone.<figure><div><img src="https://imageproxy.pbkrs.com/https://s3.tradingview.com/news/image/cointelegraph:4cd962aea094b-30fe9358d459a7549d9c69ef2b607bac-resized.jpeg?x-oss-process=image/auto-orient,1/interlace,1/resize,w_1440,h_1440/quality,q_95/format,jpg" width="1049" height="600" original-src="https://imageproxy.pbkrs.com/https://s3.tradingview.com/news/image/cointelegraph:4cd962aea094b-30fe9358d459a7549d9c69ef2b607bac-resized.jpeg"/></div></figure>BTC metric suggests $96,500 target (or worse)Bitcoin is now trading below its +0.5 standard deviation band (+0.5σ band; orange) near $119,000, according to Glassnode’s MVRV Extreme Deviation Pricing Bands.

A similar “mean reversion” phase occurred during the December 2024–April 2025 correction, when Bitcoin dropped from the +0.5σ level (~66,980) to the mean band (~$53,900) before rebounding sharply. This fractal suggests the current setup may simply be another cooling-off phase within a broader bull market, a reset to shake out excess leverage and overheated valuations before the next leg higher.A drop below the mean reversion target, however, could risk triggering a bear market, with the next downside target at around $74,000.This article does not contain investment advice or recommendations.

Bitcoin is at risk of a correction towards $96,500–$100,000 if the $110,000 support fails. Recent onchain and technical patterns indicate a mid-cycle reset rather than a full trend reversal. Following a 4.65% dip to around $110,000, analysts suggest that if this support level is breached, Bitcoin could decline further, potentially reaching $100,000 or even $96,500. A drop below this could signal a bear market, with targets around $74,000. This analysis does not constitute investment advice.
