Bitcoin price rejected at $90K again: What will trigger breakout?

Bitcoin's pre-FOMC bounce fizzled at $90,000, keeping BTC/USD rangebound between $86,000 and $90,000 since Jan. 20 as overhead resistance (around the 50-day SMA near $90,000 and the 100-day SMA near $94,000) caps upside. Analysts say bulls need to flip $90,000 — $93,000 into support — especially reclaiming $93,000 — to revive momentum and open a path toward $98,000. Meanwhile, spot Bitcoin ETF outflows are stabilizing, suggesting sell pressure is easing, but broader institutional demand remains muted with Strategy the notable ongoing buyer after adding 2,932 BTC last week.

South Dakota lawmaker takes another run at Bitcoin reserve bill

South Dakota Rep. Logan Manhart introduced HB 1155 to let the state's Investment Council put up to 10% of public funds into Bitcoin, reviving a similar bill he sponsored in 2025 that was deferred. If it passes, South Dakota would join states like Texas, Arizona and New Hampshire that have moved toward BTC/crypto reserves, as the federal government's own Bitcoin reserve plan remains slowed by legal and implementation hurdles and is currently focused on seized assets rather than direct purchases.

Solana validator count drops 68% as node costs squeeze small operators

Solana's validator count has dropped 68% to 795 as of Wednesday, from a peak of 2,560 in March 2023, raising fresh concerns about decentralization as smaller node operators get priced out. While some decline reflects the cleanup of inactive "zombie" nodes, validators say rising costs and fee competition — especially large operators charging 0% fees— are making it uneconomic to stay online.

Europe's DeFi tax gap won't last forever, says ex-OECD official

The EU's DAC8 crypto tax rules, based on the OECD's CARF, focus on what authorities can enforce now: centralized intermediaries like exchanges and custodians, not DeFi. Former OECD adviser Colby Mangels said that's deliberate, since reporting works best through businesses that facilitate trades at scale rather than individual users.

From 2026, EU-facing platforms must collect tax-residence data and report transaction activity for cross-border sharing, while DeFi remains mostly untouched for now — though FATF-led AML efforts to classify some DeFi actors as VASPs could eventually expand the reporting perimeter.
