Weak Demand: Bitcoin's apparent demand remains relatively weak above $93,000, causing its price to drop to $91,190 at the time of observation, reflecting a lack of sufficient buying power that could impact future price movements.
Miner Sell-off: Bitcoin miners offloaded 33,000 BTC to Binance in the past six days, despite rising market prices, indicating a lack of confidence in future price trends and potentially increasing selling pressure in the market.
Whale Behavior: Demand from whale accounts has shown weakness during the recent price rally, even though they previously accumulated BTC near recent lows, suggesting a lack of market confidence that could lead to another price decline.
Market Uncertainty: Rising geopolitical tensions are increasing uncertainty for risk-on assets, which may further suppress Bitcoin demand, making it difficult for the cryptocurrency to break through the $100,000 target.

About BTC

Bitcoin is a decentralized cryptocurrency originally described in a 2008 whitepaper by a person, or group of people, using the alias Satoshi Nakamoto. It was launched soon after, in January 2009.Bitcoin is a peer-to-peer online currency, meaning that all transactions happen directly between equal, independent network participants, without the need for any intermediary to permit or facilitate them. Bitcoin was created, according to Nakamoto’s own words, to allow “online payments to be sent directly from one party to another without going through a financial institution.”Some concepts for a similar type of a decentralized electronic currency precede BTC, but Bitcoin holds the distinction of being the first-ever cryptocurrency to come into actual use.
