[LIVE] Crypto News Today: Latest Updates for Dec. 09, 2025 – Bitcoin Steadies but Holiday Liquidity, FOMC Risks Keep Traders Defensive: Matrixport

Matrixport says Bitcoin may be stabilizing for now, but sentiment remains cautious as traders brace for the upcoming FOMC meeting. The firm notes that despite the brief pause in selling, current options pricing still reflects roughly 5% downside risk, with funds actively hedging against further pullbacks. With year-end deleveraging in full swing, Matrixport argues that short-term bounces are being treated as opportunities to lighten positions rather than signals of a new rally. Liquidity typically tightens heading into Christmas, adding pressure to the market. The key level to watch is $91,500, but Matrixport expects volatility to keep compressing, making a decisive post-FOMC breakout unlikely.
