## TL;DR Market is choppy and slightly down **-0.59% avg** across top 20 (total cap ~$3T), with **BTC holding steady at $92,525 (-0.30%)** amid neutral RSI and mixed MACD signals. Key movers: ETH up +0.56%, alts like DOGE/XRP down 2-3%.

BTC Silk Road wallet moves add noise but low impact. Monthly MOVE unlocks start Jan 2026 (~165M/event) - irrelevant for broad market. ## Potential Catalysts Ranked by Impact Prioritized by recency/probability from news/on-chain (
