As the final day of 2025 arrives, the broader cryptocurrency market is showing modest strength, with both Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH) trading slightly in the green. This steady performance among major assets has helped stabilize overall market sentiment, creating room for select altcoins — including Chiliz (CHZ) — to develop constructive technical setups.
CHZ is standing out with an impressive 18% daily gain. More importantly, price action has confirmed a technically significant breakout, strengthening the case for further upside in the near term.

Descending Channel Breakout
On the daily chart, Chiliz had been trapped inside a well-defined descending channel since its early December peak near the $0.051 region. This structure was marked by a series of lower highs and lower lows, reflecting persistent bearish pressure that gradually pushed CHZ down toward the $0.028 support area.
That bearish phase now appears to be ending. After reclaiming the 200-day moving average, CHZ decisively broke above the upper boundary of the descending channel near the $0.04451 level. This breakout signals a meaningful shift in market control, with buyers stepping back in after weeks of compression.

What’s Next for CHZ?
Following a breakout of this nature, short-term volatility is normal. A brief pullback toward the former resistance zone is often considered healthy. For CHZ, the $0.04451 area now stands as a critical support level. A successful retest of this zone, followed by renewed buying interest, would further validate the breakout and strengthen the bullish structure.
If buyers continue to defend reclaimed levels, the chart’s measured move points toward a potential upside target near the $0.06101 region. This would represent roughly a 35% advance from the breakout zone and aligns closely with the projected extension visible on the chart.
On the downside, a failure to hold above the breakout level could slow momentum and lead to consolidation. A sustained move back inside the descending channel would weaken the bullish outlook and delay any upside continuation. However, as long as CHZ remains above reclaimed resistance and the 200-day moving average, the broader technical structure favors higher prices in the sessions ahead.
For now, the breakout remains in its early stages, but CHZ appears well-positioned to extend its recovery move if overall market conditions remain supportive.

The Bitcoin mining industry is facing severe challenges.

User preference for self-custody increased, and the DEX market share rose. Analysts say the market has not seen panic selling; whether the price will reverse in the future still depends on the external environment.

Why is the crypto market down today? Trump’s tough remarks sparked a wave of selling, and Bitcoin is approaching the key $65,000 support level
April 2, 2026, the total market capitalization of the cryptocurrency market fell 2.6%. Bitcoin dropped to $66,250, Ethereum is nearing $2,000, and major assets generally pulled back. Due to Trump making tough remarks about the Iran situation, risk-off sentiment intensified in the market, and funds are taking a wait-and-see stance in the short term. High interest rates and geopolitical risk together are weighing on prices; going forward, attention will be on developments in the Middle East and changes in macro liquidity.

Bitcoin is moving sideways—quiet undercurrents are building beneath the surface! The expectation that “the war will end” has already been priced in, yet capital is slowly pulling back
Bitcoin’s price has been trading in a tight range around $68,000 ahead of an upcoming speech by Trump, and expectations that the conflict could ease have not translated into a more optimistic positioning of capital. Trading volume indicators show sellers are in control, and the market is in the “distribution phase.” Despite some buy-side attempts to enter, confidence is lacking, and near-term direction will be driven by geopolitical factors and capital flows.

BitMine jumps 12% but hides risks! Short sellers squeeze to dominate the market; $21 is the key watershed
BitMine Immersion Technologies (BMNR) stock price rose 12% on March 31, 2026, recording its largest single-day gain in recent history, buoyed by an upgrade to B. Riley’s price target. However, the rally was mainly driven by a short squeeze, with insufficient backing from new capital, and it may face resistance going forward. Even though the company has increased its holdings of Ethereum and has staking income, cash flow remains sluggish, and near-term performance depends on Ethereum’s price and staking returns.

Solana critical turning point approaching! 37.7 million tokens of sell pressure is piling up, is SOL set to replicate a 21% surge or fall toward $64?
Solana’s recent price has been trading in a range around $84, and multiple technical indicators suggest a potential rebound. The current head-and-shoulders top structure is similar to early March, but selling pressure in the $85 to $88 range could limit upside. If it breaks above $89.82, it will turn bullish; conversely, if it falls below $78.77, it may test as low as $64. The market is in a stage of choosing direction.
