Bitcoin is pressing up against a key resistance level and looks close to breaking higher, helped by the US stock market pushing into record territory — bullish for crypto holders in the near term.

• The Nasdaq 100 is making fresh all-time highs, and crypto usually follows that lead.
• Bitcoin keeps making higher lows under resistance, a sign buyers are getting stronger while sellers hold the same line.
• Ethereum, Solana, XRP and Chainlink are all stuck just under their own resistance, lagging Bitcoin.
• Talk of a major market crash does not match what markets are actually doing right now.
• One catch: momentum indicators are still weakening, so a breakout could be followed by a few weeks of cooling off.

Outlook: A breakout above resistance looks likely within the next one to two weeks, with a push toward the $90K range before any pullback.
