Recent Bitcoin price action despite bitcoin whale buys
Bitcoin hovered near the $90,000 level on Friday as markets steadied following a delay in a closely watched U.S. Supreme Court ruling related to President Donald Trump’s tariff policy. The postponement eased near-term macroeconomic uncertainty, helping limit volatility across risk assets, including digital currencies.
At the time of writing, bitcoin was trading at roughly $90,443, down about 1% over the past 24 hours. Daily trading volume stood near $45 billion, while total market capitalization slipped to around $1.80 trillion.
Despite the modest pullback, bitcoin remains tightly rangebound near recent highs, sitting about 2% below its seven-day peak and slightly above its weekly low.
Bitcoin’s circulating supply has climbed to nearly 20 million coins, reinforcing long-term scarcity narratives.
In the near term, however, traders see the asset consolidating after an early-year rally, with the $90,000–$91,000 range emerging as a key technical support zone as markets await a clearer catalyst, according to Bitcoin Magazine Pro analysis.
