According to CoinDesk Research’s technical analysis data model, bitcoin BTC$110,138.51 slid to support, snapped back into resistance, and then settled into a tighter range as activity rose around key levels.

Technical analysis highlights

  • Path and range: Trading spanned about $4,296, with price probing a $106,391 low and later testing $110,700 before easing.
  • Sell wave: The first leg lower saw 19,395 BTC change hands, described as 78% above typical activity for that phase.
  • Rebound impulse: A V-shaped recovery emerged from the low; a 954 BTC burst helped drive price through a nearby ceiling around $110,500 before profit-taking returned.
  • Larger cap: The model notes four rejections from $117,500 since August, marking a durable ceiling.

What the patterns mean

  • Buyers active at the shelf: Repeated responses near $106,400 indicate demand, but overhead supply continues to lean on rebounds.
  • Two-way interest: Accumulation near support met steady selling into strength, keeping trade bounded.
  • Range behavior: The bounce failed to stick above the upper band, leaving price action range-bound while positions reset.

Support and resistance map

  • Support: $106,400 first, then $103,000 as a deeper demand zone.
  • Resistance: $110,700 to $114,500 as the near-term cluster.
  • Larger cap: $117,500 remains the level the model has flagged repeatedly since August.

Volume picture

  • Initial selloff: 19,395 BTC on the first leg down, about 78% above average for that window.
  • Rebound burst: 954 BTC on the push back through a nearby ceiling, consistent with aggressive dip buying.
  • After the test: Activity cooled as trading compressed into a tight band.

Targets and risk framing

  • If buyers press: A clean break above the $110,700 to $114,500 cluster turns focus to the $117,500 cap and, if cleared, the model’s $120,000 to $123,000 extensions.
  • If sellers gain control: A loss of $106,400 exposes $103,000; the model also lists a measured-move risk toward $94,000 to $88,000 if weakness compounds.
  • Tactical takeaway: With two-way flows and a narrower band, many traders look for a decisive break out of the current range before leaning harder.

CoinDesk 5 Index (CD5) context

CD5 climbed from $1,893.76 to $1,920.74, a 3.04% total swing over the session. A breakout occurred around 4 a.m. UTC to $1,924.98, with the index maintaining higher lows above the $1,920 threshold.

Community reaction on X

Halloween 2025 coincided with the 17th anniversary of the release of Satoshi Nakamoto’s Bitcoin white paper, and advocates weighed in.

The Bitcoin Policy Institute urged people not to “fear the ghosts of fiat,” framing bitcoin as an alternative to a failing system.

Metaplanet’s Phil Geiger called ignoring bitcoin “the spookiest thing,” a nod to long-term adoption themes.

Bitcoin Magazine posted a Halloween price history showing bitcoin at $204 in 2013, $6,317 in 2018, $61,318 in 2021, $20,495 in 2022, $70,215 in 2024 and $110,300 in 2025, underscoring long-run gains with sharp drawdowns, and closing with a HODL message.

Google's AP2 protocol has been released. Does encrypted AI still have a chance?

Google's AP2 protocol has been released. Does encrypted AI still have a chance?

Following the MCP and A2A protocols, the AI Agent market has seen another blockbuster arrival: the Agent Payments Protocol (AP2), developed by Google. This will clearly further enhance AI Agents' autonomous multi-tasking capabilities, but the unfortunate reality is that it has little to do with web3AI. Let's take a closer look: What problem does AP2 solve? Simply put, the MCP protocol is like a universal hook, enabling AI agents to connect to various external tools and data sources; A2A is a team collaboration communication protocol that allows multiple AI agents to cooperate with each other to complete complex tasks; AP2 completes the last piece of the puzzle - payment capability. In other words, MCP opens up connectivity, A2A promotes collaboration efficiency, and AP2 achieves value exchange. The arrival of AP2 truly injects "soul" into the autonomous collaboration and task execution of Multi-Agents. Imagine AI Agents connecting Qunar, Meituan, and Didi to complete the booking of flights, hotels, and car rentals, but then getting stuck at the point of "self-payment." What's the point of all that multitasking? So, remember this: AP2 is an extension of MCP+A2A, solving the last mile problem of AI Agent automated execution. What are the technical highlights of AP2? The core innovation of AP2 is the Mandates mechanism, which is divided into real-time authorization mode and delegated authorization mode. Real-time authorization is easy to understand. The AI Agent finds the product and shows it to you. The operation can only be performed after the user signs. Delegated authorization requires the user to set rules in advance, such as only buying the iPhone 17 when the price drops to 5,000. The AI Agent monitors the trigger conditions and executes automatically. The implementation logic is cryptographically signed using Verifiable Credentials (VCs). Users can set complex commission conditions, including price ranges, time limits, and payment method priorities, forming a tamper-proof digital contract. Once signed, the AI Agent executes according to the conditions, with VCs ensuring auditability and security at every step. Of particular note is the "A2A x402" extension, a technical component developed by Google specifically for crypto payments, developed in collaboration with Coinbase and the Ethereum Foundation. This extension enables AI Agents to seamlessly process stablecoins, ETH, and other blockchain assets, supporting native payment scenarios within the Web3 ecosystem. What kind of imagination space can AP2 bring? After analyzing the technical principles, do you think that's it? Yes, in fact, the AP2 is boring when it is disassembled alone. Its real charm lies in connecting and opening up the "MCP+A2A+AP2" technology stack, completely opening up the complete link of AI Agent's autonomous analysis+execution+payment. From now on, AI Agents can open up many application scenarios. For example, AI Agents for stock investment and financial management can help us monitor the market 24/7 and conduct independent transactions. Enterprise procurement AI Agents can automatically replenish and renew without human intervention. AP2's complementary payment capabilities will further expand the penetration of the Agent-to-Agent economy into more scenarios. Google obviously understands that after the technical framework is established, the ecological implementation must be relied upon, so it has brought in more than 60 partners to develop it, almost covering the entire payment and business ecosystem. Interestingly, it also involves major Crypto players such as Ethereum, Coinbase, MetaMask, and Sui. Combined with the current trend of currency and stock integration, the imagination space has been doubled. Is web3 AI really dead? Not entirely. Google's AP2 looks complete, but it only achieves technical compatibility with Crypto payments. It can only be regarded as an extension of the traditional authorization framework and belongs to the category of automated execution. There is a "paradigm" difference between it and the autonomous asset management pursued by pure Crypto native solutions. The Crypto-native solutions under exploration are taking the "decentralized custody + on-chain verification" route, including AI Agent autonomous asset management, AI Agent autonomous transactions (DeFAI), AI Agent digital identity and on-chain reputation system (ERC-8004...), AI Agent on-chain governance DAO framework, AI Agent NPC and digital avatars, and many other interesting and fun directions. Ultimately, once users get used to AI Agent payments in traditional fields, their acceptance of AI Agents autonomously owning digital assets will also increase. And for those scenarios that AP2 cannot reach, such as anonymous transactions, censorship-resistant payments, and decentralized asset management, there will always be a time for crypto-native solutions to show their strength? The two are more likely to be complementary rather than competitive, but to be honest, the key technological advancements behind AI Agents currently all come from web2AI, and web3AI still needs to keep up the good work!
