In the Asian session, Bitcoin (BTC) tanked to $103,895, down 4% in 24 hours. This broke below the $105,095 support. This is a big trend change as BTC exits the ascending channel that had held since early June. The breakdown was confirmed by a bearish engulfing candle and a strong rejection near $110,376, forming a three-candle reversal pattern and a series of lower highs.
Technically, Bitcoin is under pressure. It now trades below its 50-period EMA ($107,446), and the MACD has crossed bearishly with a deepening histogram, confirming momentum is with the sellers. If $103,132 fails to hold, BTC could slip toward $101,705 or even test the psychological $100,000 level.

Binance’s formal entry into Syria follows the lifting of EU and US sanctions in May, which unlocked access for Syrians to trade over 300 cryptocurrencies, including Bitcoin, XRP, and Toncoin.
Full access to futures, spot, and P2P markets is now available, alongside Arabic-language educational tools and Binance Pay for borderless payments.

Highlights:
- Syrians can now trade BTC and more on Binance
- Binance Pay eases cross-border payments
- Crypto seen as hedge in conflict zones
Meanwhile, BlackRock is ramping up its crypto ambitions. At its investor day, the $11 trillion asset manager set a goal to become the top crypto asset manager by 2030.
Its IBIT ETF sold $260.9M in BTC and bought $930.6M in June while overseeing the $53B Circle Reserve Fund backing USDC. It’s already registered as a crypto asset firm in the UK.
