After flirting with the $100,000 threshold, Bitcoin made a decisive move upward this week. However, as the weekend approached, the leading cryptocurrency experienced slight retracements. According to Jan Happel and Yann Allemann, co-founders of Glassnode, inflation data played a pivotal role in fueling Bitcoin’s surge past this critical milestone. 
Happel and Allemann suggest that Bitcoin’s next steps will involve: 
<ul data-spread="false"> 
 <li>Turning $102,000 into solid support to escape the recent price compression zone.</li> 
 <li>Avoiding a drop below $100,000, which could align with a retest of support between $97,200 and $98,500.</li> 
 <li>A daily close above $102,000, potentially paving the way for targets at $104,000 and the $108,000 upper channel.</li> 
</ul> 
At the time of writing, Bitcoin was trading just under $100,000, showing a minor 0.9% daily loss but maintaining over 15% gains on the monthly chart.

After Bitcoin, analysts are turning their attention to Solana (SOL). According to Happel and Allemann, SOL is gearing up for a rally that could see it test previous highs. If SOL gains momentum, ecosystem tokens like JUP and WIF could follow its lead. 
Their analysis highlights: 
<ul data-spread="false"> 
 <li>SOL has rebounded from a key level and is currently eyeing $230.</li> 
 <li>A daily close above $235 could break the price compression and target the previous high of $264.</li> 
 <li>Key signal: The daily RSI is neutral and comfortably below the overbought zone, signaling favorable conditions for upward movement.</li> 
</ul> 
At the time of reporting, SOL was trading at $226, marking a 2.74% daily loss but boasting over 10% monthly gains.<img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="size-full wp-image-76296 aligncenter" src="https://thebitjournal.b-cdn.net/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/Grafik-2-2.jpeg" alt="Bitcoin Hits $100K Again, What’s Next for SOL and Two Promising Altcoins? = The Bit Journal" width="1280" height="709" title="Bitcoin Hits $100K Again, What’s Next for SOL and Two Promising Altcoins? 54" srcset="https://thebitjournal.b-cdn.net/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/Grafik-2-2.jpeg 1280w, https://thebitjournal.b-cdn.net/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/Grafik-2-2-300x166.jpeg 300w, https://thebitjournal.b-cdn.net/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/Grafik-2-2-1024x567.jpeg 1024w, https://thebitjournal.b-cdn.net/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/Grafik-2-2-768x425.jpeg 768w, https://thebitjournal.b-cdn.net/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/Grafik-2-2-860x476.jpeg 860w" sizes="(max-width: 1280px) 100vw, 1280px"> 
<h2 id="the-altcoins-to-watch-jup-and-wif">The Altcoins to Watch: JUP and WIF</h2> 
If Solana breaks out as predicted, its ecosystem tokens JUP and WIF could benefit significantly. Both tokens have been quietly building momentum and are worth keeping an eye on for potential gains.
