Bitcoin pushed above $80,000 in morning trading before settling at $78,932 by evening, up just 0.3% on the session, while Ether slipped 0.5% to $2,460 and Solana added 1.8% to $97.93. The failure to hold the round number on first contact is the detail traders flagged, since a level that rejects on an initial test usually needs a second or third attempt before it gives way.
