Bitcoin price pauses at $90K: What will trigger a New Year rally?

Bitcoin needed a return of retail and institutional demand for BTC to clear the next big hurdle at $90,000 and to spark a new rally toward six figures.
Bitcoin’s (BTC) end-of-year rally to $90,000 appeared to be stalling due to a lack of demand and weak onchain activity. However, a new technical setup suggested that momentum will increase once the BTC/USD pair breaks above $90,000.
Key takeaways:
Apparent demand and buying from US investors must recover to secure a New Year rally for BTC.
