Bitcoin entered the London window under immediate pressure, testing toward the $77,500 structural support zone before stabilising in the $78,200–$78,900 range through mid-morning. The $80,000 handle continues to function as a hard ceiling — two consecutive rejection attempts during European hours confirmed distribution at that level rather than accumulation. A regime flip signal on BTC is the session's most significant structural development, suggesting the prior trend exhausted and price discovery is now contested. Altcoins drifted sideways with no independent catalysts, effectively mirroring BTC's indecision.
