Bitcoin slips to $77,000 range after failing at $80,000 resistance

Bitcoin slid back below $78,000 after running into resistance near $80,000, with the price down about 2 percent over the past 24 hours. Markets see concentrated sell orders around $80,000 as capping gains, though one analyst called the move a temporary pullback within a broader uptrend. On-chain data showed stablecoin inflows to Binance and continued U.S.-listed spot bitcoin ETF inflows. DeFi security incidents and oil prices were cited as risks.

Bitcoin retreats after 12-week high, fails again near $79,000

Bitcoin briefly reclaimed a 12-week high of $79,399 but fell back in Asian trading and failed to retake $80,000. It was last down 2.09 percent over 24 hours at about $77,700. Analysts flagged $80,000 as a level where selling often emerges as underwater positions are closed. Major altcoins also weakened. Funding rates in perpetual futures remained negative, leaving room for a short squeeze if spot prices hold above breakeven levels.

Native speakers may be fine with it, so why does it feel uncomfortable? A look at rudeness in foreign-language talk

A study found that when people converse in a language that is not their mother tongue, the other person’s words can feel colder or ruder. Linguist Irini Mavrou (이리니 마브로우) and her team compared native English speakers with Spanish-speaking participants who use English as a foreign language. The non-native group tended to judge the same workplace scenes as ruder, likely due to difficulty reading tone, relationships and non-verbal cues, along with cognitive burden.
