Bitcoin Price Prediction at $87K Amid Stock Market Uptick
Bitcoin's price climbed slightly on Tuesday but may not be headed for a surge due to many limiting factors.
Quick overview
- Bitcoin (BTC) has recovered slightly to $87,455 after hitting a low on Monday, but remains below the weekly average.
- Despite a 1.92% increase, Bitcoin is still struggling to break the $90K barrier and faces high selling pressure.
- Other cryptocurrencies like Ethereum, XRP, and BNB have also seen minor recoveries but remain low overall.
- Investors should brace for a bearish trend in the crypto market, with expectations of continued low prices for Bitcoin.
Although Bitcoin (BTC) fell Monday to its lowest point since March, the coin has made some recovery since then and is now at $87,455 (BTC/USD).
Bitcoin remains below the weekly average but is up from Monday’s low with a 1.92% increase. At the same time, the stock market is swinging upward as well, recovering from Monday’s dip. Investors should not get their hopes up, though, as selling pressure remains high for the crypto market.
BTC/USDEthereum (ETH), XRP (XRP), and BNB (BNB) all climbed on Tuesday, improving their position from Monday’s losses but were still low overall when considering their movement over the last seven days.
Bitcoin Expected to Remain Low
Despite an uptick today in Bitcoin’s price, it is still well below $90K, which has been a problematic level for BTC to overcome in recent weeks. Add to that the fact that Bitcoin’s upward movement is slowing down and you have a coin that may not move any higher for the day.
We expect Bitcoin to continue to struggle around its current level, carving out some territory in the $80-90K range for a while. Even though the coin tends to do well in December, this month is not shaping up to be a bullish one for the crypto market or the stock market.
Because Bitcoin’s recent price drop is not happening apart from the wider cryptocurrency market, that widespread decline will also keep the BTC price low. Investors should anticipate a bearish few weeks and possibly an extended bear trend through the end of the year.
Over the last couple of months, Bitcoin’s price level has been hurt by massive selloffs, as many of the whales who purchased large quantities of Bitcoin in 2025 sold their coins and stepped away from the market. BTC did hit an all-time high in October and several record highs throughout the year. Now that it has not managed to set a new high in months, the selling pressure is high and investor sentiment is low.
These factors are likely to work together against Bitcoin for now. Even if the stock market surges, Bitcoin may remain low regardless. Investors need to prepare for an extended stay around the current level, and they should also expect that if Bitcoin achieves some bullish momentum, it may not last long at all in the current economic climate.
