# Bitcoin & Cryptocurrency Investment Show - Week of January 27, 2026

Hey everybody, Crypto Willy here, and man, what a week we've had in the crypto markets. Let me break down exactly what's been going on as we wrap up January.

So here's the situation – Bitcoin's been getting absolutely hammered by a perfect storm of bearish factors. According to BeInCrypto, we're looking at three major selling catalysts that have pushed prices down hard. First up, there's been a massive $2.24 billion exodus from stablecoins in just ten days, which is basically investors cashing out to fiat instead of holding dry powder for the next dip. That's a red flag, my friends, because stablecoins are the lifeblood of crypto market liquidity.

On top of that, the Coinbase Premium Index has absolutely plunged into negative territory – we're talking the lowest readings in an entire year. What does that mean? US investors are selling, and they're selling hard. When you see that kind of selling pressure from Coinbase, you know institutional players are taking profits or getting spooked.

But wait, there's more. A severe ice storm has absolutely devastated Bitcoin mining operations across the United States. According to CryptoQuant analyst Darkfost, we saw hashrate collapse from 1.133 ZH/s down to 690 EH/s in just two days. Marathon Digital Holdings – that's MARA for you traders – saw their hashrate drop four times their monthly average in just three days. The extreme cold knocked out power grids and spiked electricity costs, forcing miners to shut down operations. If this persists, miners might have to sell their holdings just to cover operating costs.

Now, veteran trader Peter Brandt is calling out some serious technical warning signs. According to BeInCrypto, Brandt flagged that Bitcoin has broken down from a bear channel on the daily chart and would need to recover above $93,000 to negate the bearish outlook. If that doesn't happen, we could see prices decline toward $81,833 or even $66,883.

But here's the thing – it's not all doom and gloom. Token Metrics reports that Bitcoin is currently consolidating around $95,000 after recovering from recent lows near $87,600. They're pointing to a Bollinger Bands squeeze, which historically precedes major price movements. The MACD has turned positive, and the 20-day and 50-day EMAs have been reclaimed, suggesting some bullish momentum building beneath the surface.

Looking ahead, immediate resistance sits at $99,500, with the major $100,000-$102,000 zone beyond that. Support levels to watch are $94,000 and the critical $92,000 level. Changelly's technical indicators are actually forecasting upside, predicting Bitcoin could reach $89,271 by January 29th and potentially climb toward $100k+ by mid-February if momentum continues.

So what's the takeaway? Bitcoin's at a genuine inflection point. The selling pressure is real – the stablecoin exodus, the mining crisis, the US selling pressure – but the technical setup suggests big moves are coming. Whether we bounce or break depends on whether we can hold these critical support levels.
