Harvard Triples Bitcoin ETF Stake, Makes It Largest Public HoldingBitcoin Magazine Harvard Triples Bitcoin ETF Stake, Makes It Largest Public Holding Harvard University’s endowment has been quietly and massively increasing its Bitcoin holdings. The university bought more than 6.8 million shares of BlackRock’s iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT) as of September 30. The investment is valued at $442.8 million. This marks a 257% increase from Harvard’s previous holding of 1.9 million shares, worth $116.6 million. The move makes IBIT Harvard’s largest publicly disclosed position. It is also the biggest single-quarter increase in its holdings, according the the filing. Harvard Management Company runs the university’s $57 billion endowment. The Bitcoin ETF now represents just under 1% of total endowment assets. Bloomberg ETF analyst Eric Balchunas said it is “super rare” for a university to invest in an ETF. He added that the stake is “as good a validation as an ETF can get.” FUN FACT: Harvard University holds more in Bitcoin ETFs than it holds shares in Microsoft. pic.twitter.com/Lzblc1gjcP— Bitcoin Magazine (@BitcoinMagazine) November 15, 2025 Despite Bitcoin’s recent price drop below $93,000, the move signals growing institutional acceptance. IBIT remains the world’s largest spot Bitcoin ETF, with nearly $75 billion in net assets. Harvard also increased its gold exposure. The endowment nearly doubled its holding in SPDR Gold Shares (GLD) to 661,391 shares, worth $235.1 million. Other major holdings remain in U.S. tech companies, including Amazon, Microsoft, Meta, and Alphabet. The endowment also added positions in Klarna ($16.8 million) and Taiwan Semiconductor ($59.1 million). The increase in Bitcoin and gold allocations highlights Harvard’s focus on portfolio diversification. Analysts see this as part of a wider institutional trend. Bitwise analyst Ryan Rasmussen said the stake may grow to 1% or even 5% as peer institutions follow. Institutions other then Harvard are buying Bitcoin Other institutions are also increasing Bitcoin ETF exposure. Emory University disclosed a 91% increase in its Grayscale Bitcoin Mini Trust ETF holdings, totaling over $42 million. An Abu Dhabi sovereign wealth fund, Al Warda Investments, reported a 230% increase in IBIT holdings, now valued at $517.6 million. Harvard’s Bitcoin move is rare but significant. Institutional investors traditionally avoid ETFs, preferring private equity, real estate, or direct investments. The university’s entry could encourage similar strategies across other endowments, pension funds, and sovereign wealth funds. At the time of writing, Bitcoin’s price is nearing $92,000, putting it almost 30% below its all-time high near $126,000 — a level referenced in earlier market coverage. The drop follows weeks of sharp selling, with BTC sliding from the mid-110,000s — where it was trading when panic hit and rumors swirled about large institutional outflows — to its current lows.

BNB Crashes Below $1K—Buy the Dip or Bail Out?Binance Coin (BNB) has dumped well below $1,000, raising fresh questions for holders and traders. The asset is now priced around $900 after falling from a mid-October peak of around $1,370. This drop has triggered new analysis on whether the move is a warning sign or a buying window. Price Action and Key Levels BNB’s fall below $1,080 confirmed a break in market structure. Crypto analyst Crypto Patel stated that a dip toward $880 was already expected. The price reached this area and rebounded slightly, but it still sits under the $1,000–$1,050 resistance zone, which was tested and rejected. A longer-term trendline, which had held since the summer rally, has also broken. Patel pointed to the $770–$730 zone as a possible area for accumulation. He added, “Everyone panics when BNB dips… I look for entries,” and maintained a longer-term view that BNB could reach $5,000. In a separate analysis, Henry shared a possible short-term recovery setup. On the 4-hour chart, a W-shaped pattern or double bottom has formed, with support near $900. If BNB breaks above $1,036, he expects a move toward $1,175. “Double bottom is done, now it’s time to pump,” he said. Momentum Signals Momentum remains low. The Relative Strength Index (RSI) is at 38, which is near oversold levels but not low enough to confirm a strong reversal. Buying activity is limited, and the market lacks a clear direction. Source: TradingView The MACD, an indicator that follows trends, still indicates a bearish structure. The MACD line is situated under the signal line, and both are in the negative area. This setup points to continued downside pressure, with no sign of a trend reversal for now. Meanwhile, sentiment remains mixed. According to Market Prophit, the crowd is bullish, while their model indicates bearish conditions. This split shows that traders and systems are not aligned on the next move. However, netflow data shows a recent $2.06 million inflow to exchanges, which may suggest short-term selling. Over recent weeks, though, BNB has seen mostly outflows, meaning more tokens are moving off exchanges. This often happens when holders move assets into private wallets. Source: Coinglass Distribution and Legal Context As CryptoPotato reported earlier this month, data from YZi Labs shows that BNB supply is becoming more dispersed across the network. More tokens are now held in self-custody, with fewer stored on exchanges. Simultaneously, the regulatory landscape concerning Binance has changed. Changpeng Zhao (CZ), the founder of Binance, was given a complete and unrestricted pardon by US President Donald Trump not long ago. Although some are of the opinion that this might ease the legal pressure on Binance, others doubt the action and its impact on the entire crypto market. BNB remains under pressure, but interest in both short-term trades and long-term positioning continues as the market looks for direction.

- Grayscale and Bitwise Dogecoin ETFs Could Launch Within Days as SEC Review Clock Ticks
Grayscale’s Dogecoin ETF could launch as soon as November 24, following a 20-day SEC review clock triggered after its registration filing. Bitwise also seeks automatic approval, marking a significant step in the institutionalization of meme coins. These filings indicate a significant shift in regulatory oversight as Multiple asset managers now compete to bring Dogecoin into traditional portfolios through tax-efficient and regulated vehicles. SEC Review Process Accelerates Approval Timeline This faster timeline stems from Section 8(a) of the Securities Act of 1933. The provision allows registration statements to automatically become effective 20 days after filing, unless the SEC takes action. Grayscale and Bitwise are using this to skip the more complex 19b-4 exchange rule procedure usually needed for ETF launches. The official SEC guidance confirms that registration statements gain automatic effectiveness under Section 8(a) after 20 days. This shortcut has expedited product launches as institutional interest in cryptocurrency investment grows. Bitwise filed its application on November 7. This could set the stage for a late November launch. Meanwhile, Balchunas predicts a November 24 launch for Grayscale, though he cautioned that confirmation depends on official exchange notice. The SEC has acknowledged both filings, kicking off the regulatory review and public comment period. Based on 20 day clock I believe Grayscale will be out with first Doge ETF in a week, 11/24. We'll see, won't be 100% till exchange notice, but based on SEC guidance it looks good. pic.twitter.com/mvlGsNyNVG— Eric Balchunas (@EricBalchunas) November 17, 2025 Grayscale launched its Dogecoin Trust on January 31, 2025, as a precursor to the ETF application. The Trust enables investors to gain Dogecoin exposure without direct ownership, addressing custody and security concerns that have deterred many institutions. Commodity Classification Boosts Approval Odds Dogecoin’s likely classification as a commodity, rather than a security, now plays a significant role in its approval prospects. This classification helps sidestep the legal issues that have slowed Solana and XRP ETF efforts, where securities status remains disputed. The Federal Register filing for NYSE Arca’s proposed rule change directly references Dogecoin under Rule 8.201-E, which covers “Commodity-Based Trust Shares.” This aligns with the Commodity Exchange Act and signals that both exchanges and the SEC consider Dogecoin a commodity fit for an ETF structure. Bloomberg analysts predict a 90% chance of Dogecoin ETF approval, versus 95% for XRP. These estimates reflect rising confidence in the SEC’s openness to altcoin ETFs, following Solana ETF decisions earlier this year. However, the process still requires a 240-day review window after publication in the Federal Register. During this window, public input can shape the SEC’s final decision. The Commission may delay, request amendments, or issue stop orders if investor protection or market integrity is compromised. Industry-Wide Institutional Push Gains Momentum Meanwhile, the race for a Dogecoin ETF now extends beyond Grayscale and Bitwise. Leading asset managers, such as 21Shares, Rex Shares, and Osprey Funds, have filed similar applications, signaling an industry-wide consensus that meme coins are growing into institutional-grade investment products. 21Shares filed its Dogecoin ETF registration on April 9, 2025, detailing custody with Coinbase Custody Trust Company. Using independent, regulated custodians answers SEC demands for secure storage and institutional compliance, removing a major barrier for traditional finance. ETFs offer clear advantages over direct crypto holdings. In-kind creation and redemption allow tax efficiency. Regulated frameworks boost transparency and investor protection, features that spot trading lacks. These benefits appeal to pension funds, endowments, and registered investment advisors with fiduciary obligations. Industry observers predict that more than 200 crypto ETF approvals will be made by mid-2026. This trend could drive massive institutional capital flows and lower volatility, moving the market away from retail-dominated activity and closer to mainstream acceptance. Despite this growing momentum, Dogecoin’s price has dropped, down 0.4499% in the last 24 hours. As of this writing, DOGE traded for $0.1543. Dogecoin (DOGE) Price Performance. Source: BeInCrypto This suggests that ETF approvals may not deliver immediate gains, but steady institutional demand could eventually drive sustained growth. The coming weeks will reveal whether regulatory timelines align with market expectations. Should Grayscale and Bitwise succeed in launching before year-end, Dogecoin would join Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Solana among the few cryptocurrencies available through US-regulated ETFs. Such a turnout would strengthen its status within the digital asset space.

BlackRock XRP ETF Speculation Hit New Highs As XRPC Performance Shocks MarketsThe speculation surrounding a potential BlackRock XRP ETF has surged to new heights. This surge is a direct consequence of the astonishing market debut of the Canary XRPC ETF. Canary XRP ETF’s launch has painted a clear picture of robust institutional and retail demand for a regulated XRP investment product. Why XRPC’s Success Fuels BlackRock Rumors As the speculation around a potential BlackRock XRP ETF is heating up again, the Canary XRPC ETF has delivered one of the strongest launches of the year. An analyst known as Skipper_xrp has noted on X that the newly listed fund stunned the market with over $58 million in first-day trading volume and $245 million in net inflows, outperforming hundreds of ETF debuts of 2025. Skipper_xrp mentioned that many supporters in the XRP community still believe that BlackRock might already be quietly experimenting with or even testing the idea of an XRP trust behind closed doors. The momentum has increased further after Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse made a statement at the company’s Swell event, highlighting that Ripple’s ongoing collaboration with major traditional financial firms will bring digital asset adoption into regulated global markets. However, with the ETF inflows accelerating and XRP gaining more visibility among institutions, many investors are now arguing that it’s only a matter of time before a heavyweight firm like BlackRock will consider stepping into the XRP space. Understanding XRP’s Long-Term Growth Trajectory Crypto trader Adam_Xrp has also offered some insight on why XRP didn’t moon when the first ETF was launched. According to the expert, the XRP ETF launch was never going to be a flip-the-switch moment. Even with the first XRP ETF going live, price action was building slowly, and the institutional money did not pour in all at once. Rather, it scales over time as confidence and liquidity grow. Furthermore, the altcoin is still early in the rollout, and more XRP ETFs are scheduled to begin trading. Each new product will increase exposure, volume, and demand. This is how true institutional adoption is slowly progressing. BlackRock has stated that the company is not launching an XRP ETF right now, but this isn’t something they would ignore forever. However, once the regulatory path is fully cleared and institutional demand strengthens, it’s only a matter of time before the biggest players, like BlackRock, will step into the arena. Adam_Xrp concluded that the altcoin wasn’t supposed to skyrocket overnight. This phase is a gradual process of foundation building as the ecosystem, liquidity expansion, and the institutional framework grow. The expert added that if you expect to get rich overnight, without understanding the long-term game plan, then XRP might not be the right investment for you.
Think BlackRock Is Bullish on Bitcoin? Arthur Hayes Says They’re Not, Here’s WhyBitcoin’s record ETF inflows in 2025 look bullish on the surface, but Arthur Hayes says most of that money isn’t true institutional buying.

- Think BlackRock Is Bullish on Bitcoin? Arthur Hayes Says They’re Not, Here’s Why
Institutional inflows into spot Bitcoin ETFs have been one of the biggest storylines since their launch last year. With Bitcoin hitting new highs in 2025 and ETF assets surging, many assume big Wall Street players are finally “long Bitcoin.” But not so fast, says Arthur Hayes. In an email sent Monday, the BitMEX co-founder argues that much of the institutional activity inside BlackRock’s IBIT, still the largest Bitcoin ETF by assets, has nothing to do with long-term conviction. Instead, he says, the biggest players are running a straightforward arbitrage trade. “They Are Not Long Bitcoin” Hayes points to the ETF’s largest holders, hedge funds and bank trading desks, including firms like Goldman Sachs, and argues they are primarily engaged in what’s known as a basis trade. Here’s how it works: Funds buy IBIT ETF shares Simultaneously short CME Bitcoin futures Capture the yield difference between the ETF and futures (the basis) Use the ETF shares as collateral for the futures short According to Hayes: “They are not long Bitcoin. They only play in our sandbox for a few extra points over Fed Funds.” This has become even more common in 2025 as US rates have fallen, with the Federal Reserve cutting rates three times this year, reducing yields across traditional markets and making arbitrage opportunities more attractive. Why ETF Inflows Can Be Misleading When the basis is high enough, hedge funds rush into the trade, creating the appearance of large institutional inflows.When the basis compresses, as it has several times throughout 2025, those same institutions unwind the trade, causing sharp ETF outflows. Hayes says this dynamic creates a dangerous illusion, and it plays out like this: When the basis spikes → ETF inflows surge → “Institutions are buying Bitcoin!” When the basis collapses → ETF outflows spike → “Institutions are dumping Bitcoin!” Retail investors often misinterpret these flows, which can amplify market volatility. What Changed in 2025 Earlier this year, Bitcoin rose steadily even as dollar liquidity tightened under the incoming Trump administration and US Treasury issuance surged. ETF inflows and buying from digital asset trusts helped offset the liquidity drag. But Hayes argues that that phase may be over. Several digital asset trusts (DATs) have traded below NAV this autumn. The ETF basis trade has become less attractive as futures spreads narrowed. Hedge funds have reduced their positions, triggering noticeable outflows across the ETF complex for weeks at a time. With those artificial demand drivers fading, Hayes says Bitcoin finally has to respond to the underlying macro environment again. “Bitcoin Must Fall” — Hayes on Short-Term Pressure According to Hayes: “Bitcoin must fall to reflect the current short-term worry that dollar liquidity will contract or not grow as fast as the politicians promised.” In other words:ETF flows pushed Bitcoin up when liquidity didn’t justify it.Now those flows are gone, and liquidity still matters. His message for late 2025 is blunt: Most ETF inflows were arbitrage, not long-term institutional belief. BlackRock’s biggest ‘holders’ aren’t long Bitcoin, they’re long the basis. The unwind of those trades is now affecting Bitcoin’s price. For retail investors, the lesson is simple:ETF flows tell you more about the futures curve than institutional conviction.

We Asked 4 AIs if Bitcoin (BTC) Will Crash to $50K Before the End of 2025It has been a rough few weeks for the Bitcoin bulls, as the asset’s price has plummeted well below $100,000. Some analysts and community members have started waving the white flag, declaring the start of the bear market. We turned to four of the most popular AI chatbots to determine if a more significant plunge to $50,000 is on the horizon. It Seems Unlikely According to ChatGPT, BTC has entered a bearish phase inside a larger bull cycle. That said, it claimed that a crash to $50,000 before the end of 2025 is unexpected and would require “a major negative catalyst.” Such a shock would be a recession, the fallout of a leading crypto exchange (similar to what happened with FTX in 2022), and other factors. The chatbot stated that double-digit corrections are normal in bull markets, noting that the current cycle is stronger than previous ones due to the strong demand created by the spot BTC ETFs. In conclusion, ChatGPT estimated that the chance of a collapse to $50K by New Year’s Eve is in the 5% – 15% range. The highest probability is for the price to trade between $70,000 and $110,000, whereas the odds of a new rally above $120,000 are 30% – 40%. Grok argued that the plunge to such a low level is possible but unlikely based on current analyst consensus, historical patterns, and macroeconomic tailwinds. “A drop to $50,000 would require a ~47% further decline from today’s levels, which would be an extreme event even for Bitcoin’s volatile history. While risks exist, most forecasts point to stabilization or upside by December 31, 2025,” it added. It claimed that the potential lowering of interest rates in the US could fuel the resurgence that bulls are awaiting. The next FOMC meeting is scheduled for December 10. Just a few weeks ago, the chances of a 0.25% rate cut were 90%, but currently, the “no change” option is estimated at 51%. Fed Decision in December, Source: Polymarket Other Forecasts Perplexity shared a similar thesis, considering a collapse of that type, “a lower-probability scenario.” It suggested that BTC will continue trading above $85,000 until the end of the year, even speculating that the price may skyrocket to $190,000 under bullish cases. “Bitcoin crashing to $50,000 before the end of 2025 is not the most likely outcome, but it remains a plausible downside risk if adverse macroeconomic or regulatory events worsen. Current technical and fundamental analysis generally indicate a higher base level nearer $85,000-$100,000 with strong long-term bullish momentum overall,” it summarized. Last but not least, we sought the opinion of Google’s Gemini. It stated that a major banking crisis, a rise in interest rates in the United States, or a large-scale security exploit on a well-known exchange can trigger a drop to $50K. On the other hand, bullish factors like the institutional adoption following the introduction of spot BTC ETFs and the increasing acceptance of the asset as digital gold make this improbable.

BlackRock's Bitcoin ETF Sheds Record $463M as Crypto Funds See Worst Week Since FebruaryDigital asset investment products shed $2 billion last week amid monetary-policy uncertainty and accelerating risk-off sentiment.
Arthur Hayes Blames Bitcoin’s 25% Slide on a Sudden Liquidity ContractionBitcoin’s recent decline reflects a sharp deterioration in U.S. dollar liquidity rather than any shift in political rhetoric, according to Arthur Hayes, co-founder and former CEO of BitMEX. In a new column, Hayes draws parallels between unpredictable winter storms in Hokkaido and the equally volatile liquidity conditions shaping digital-asset markets.Hayes opens with an analogy from his annual ski routine in Japan, noting that early-season decisions must often be made with incomplete information—a dynamic he believes mirrors the way traders interpret macroeconomic signs. “Bitcoin is the free-market weathervane of global fiat liquidity,” he writes, arguing that the asset trades primarily on expectations of future money supply.From “Up Only” to a 25% PullbackFollowing the U.S. “Liberation Day” market turbulence on April 2, Hayes says he adopted an optimistic stance, predicting a sustained rally fueled by fiscal stimulus and accommodative policy indicators from the Trump administration. Bitcoin initially climbed 21% after tariff pressures eased, and a decline in Bitcoin dominance suggested renewed appetite for altcoins such as Ether. Bitcoin plunges to $93,000 as Crypto Fear Index hits 10, lowest since July 2022, with $617M liquidated amid rate cut uncertainty.#Bitcoin #RateCuthttps://t.co/uffTcVoV4Z— Cryptonews.com (@cryptonews) November 17, 2025 However, the positive momentum stalled. Since early October, Bitcoin has fallen roughly 25% from its all-time high, a move Hayes attributes not to changing political messages but to a contraction in dollar liquidity.He cites his proprietary USD Liquidity Index, which he says has declined 10% since April, even as Bitcoin rallied 12% during that same period.ETF Basis Trades Masked Liquidity StressAccording to Hayes, that divergence was temporarily supported by inflows into spot Bitcoin ETFs and accumulation by Digital Asset Treasury (DAT) companies such as Strategy. However, these flows masked underlying macroeconomic weaknesses.Hayes notes that many of the largest ETF inflows came not from long-term institutional adoption but from hedge funds executing basis trades—buying spot Bitcoin ETFs while shorting CME Bitcoin futures to capture the spread. As the spread narrowed, those investors reduced their positions, leading to large ETF outflows.DATs also slowed their purchasing activity, he adds, as premiums on their publicly traded shares fell into discounts relative to net asset value. “Without these flows obscuring the negative liquidity picture, Bitcoin must fall to reflect the current short-term worry that dollar liquidity will contract,” Hayes writes.A Political Test for Liquidity CreationLooking ahead, Hayes argues that the future trajectory of markets will hinge on whether the administration can inject new liquidity into the system. He expects political pressure—particularly ahead of the 2026 midterm elections—to ultimately force policymakers to reignite stimulus despite public rhetoric about fighting inflation.While he sees “short-term lulls” in fiat creation as inevitable, Hayes maintains a longer-term bullish outlook, predicting that sustained money printing will eventually return. In the meantime, he warns that Bitcoin may need to retrace further to align with tightening liquidity conditions.The post Arthur Hayes Blames Bitcoin’s 25% Slide on a Sudden Liquidity Contraction appeared first on Cryptonews.

Bitcoin (BTC) Loses the Golden Line: Here’s What Comes NextBitcoin (BTC) briefly slipped to $93,000 over the weekend, as the market remains fragile. A modest rebound has done little to ease concerns. As traders scramble for hope, fresh data suggests that today’s breakdown confirms real bearish pressure. EMA50 Breakdown Crypto analyst Doctor Profit, in his latest tweet, said Bitcoin has entered a clearly bearish phase after breaking below the weekly EMA50, a level he calls the “golden line” and one of the most important indicators for determining whether BTC is in a bull or bear market. He explained that throughout the entire 2024 cycle, Bitcoin consistently closed weekly candles above this level and bounced each time it touched it. Because the EMA50 held for so long, he says this line played a central role in confirming the bull market structure. Now that Bitcoin has dropped below it, the bearish sentiment is confirmed. Many bullish traders argue that the death cross is a positive sign because previous ones in September 2023, August 2024, and April 2025 were followed by strong rallies of 25% to 60% in the months that followed. In all three previous cases, however, Bitcoin was trading well above the EMA50 at the moment of the death cross. In April 2025, BTC was 12% above the golden line, and in August 2024, it was 17% above. Each time, Bitcoin respected the EMA50 and bounced, confirming that those death crosses were fake bearish signals. The situation today, however, is completely different. This time, the death cross happened while Bitcoin was trading 6% below the EMA50, and the golden line already failed to hold as support. Based on this, the analyst calls the latest event a “true death cross.” Doctor Profit also challenged the belief that extreme fear in the market automatically represents a bottom. He pointed to the 2021 example, when the Fear and Greed Index hit extreme levels as Bitcoin dropped from $68,000 to the $50,000 range, yet the price continued falling until it reached the $16,000-$18,000 region. He added that the current environment is more dangerous than previous corrections. In earlier phases of 2024 and 2025, ETFs were selling while whales accumulated, which created a balanced structure. This time, both ETFs and whales show negative volume, which adds to the bearish pressure. On top of that, the average Bitcoin buyer from the last six months has an entry of around $94,600. A move toward or below that level could trigger more selling, as short-term traders tend to sell at breakeven or a slight loss. Structural and Mechanical Downturn At the same time, a separate analysis from the Kobeissi Letter points to a deeper change behind Bitcoin’s downturn. The report said that the leading crypto asset’s 25% slide since October is a “structural and mechanical” bear phase driven by institutional outflows that began in late October. Crypto funds saw a record $1.2 billion in net outflows in early November, while high leverage across the market turned routine volatility into sharp price swings. Therefore, with multiple trading days seeing over $1 billion in liquidations and sentiment collapsing to its lowest level since February, the analysts argued that leverage is amplifying the decline and not fundamentals.

- Cboe Unveils First US Perpetual-Style Bitcoin and Ether Continuous Futures
Cboe Global Markets is ushering in a new era for US crypto derivatives. The exchange operator announced today that its Cboe Futures Exchange (CFE) will begin offering Continuous Futures for Bitcoin (PBT) and Ether (PET) on December 15, 2025, pending final regulatory review. This marks the first time that US-regulated markets will host perpetual-style crypto exposure, which has traditionally been offered only on offshore exchanges. Cboe Brings Perpetual-Style Crypto Futures Into the US Regulatory Fold The new products are designed to provide professional investors with long-term, capital-efficient exposure to the two largest digital assets. It eliminates the operational friction of rolling expiring futures. Each contract will have a 10-year expiration and feature a daily cash adjustment. With this, it mirrors the mechanics of perpetual swaps while remaining fully compliant with US derivatives regulations. Perpetual futures, one of crypto’s most traded products globally, have historically thrived on offshore venues. This is due to regulatory constraints in the US. Cboe’s move brings a familiar, yet heavily supervised, version of this instrument to institutional desks. It seeks transparency, clear protections, and regulatory alignment. “As perpetual futures have historically been traded offshore, Cboe is excited to help expand access to these products within a US-regulated, transparent, and intermediary-friendly environment,” said Rob Hocking, Global Head of Derivatives at Cboe. He added that the structure enables more efficient portfolio and risk management. At the same time, it must provide investors with a controlled path to leveraged digital asset exposure. Continuous Futures will be cash-settled, centrally cleared, and governed by CFTC-regulated standards via Cboe. Clear US Margin requirements will follow standard derivatives oversight. Traders may gain cross-margining benefits with CFE’s existing Financially Settled Bitcoin (FBT) and Ether (FET) futures. Designed for Capital Efficiency and Long-Term Exposure The contracts will track Cboe Kaiko Real-Time Rates for both BTC and ETH. A daily “Funding Amount” similar to funding payments used in perpetual swaps will be applied to open positions. This will keep futures pricing aligned with spot markets. “Bringing perpetual-style futures to US regulated markets addresses a real need for institutional investors seeking efficient, long-term crypto exposure,” said Anne-Claire Maurice, Managing Director of Derived Data at Kaiko. She emphasized that the structure removes rolling risks while preserving transparency and oversight. This aligns with recent remarks from Youngsun Shin, Head of Product at Flipster, in an interview with BeInCrypto. According to Shin, risk management should be built into innovation itself. Trading will be available 23 hours a day, five days a week, from Sunday evening to Friday afternoon (ET). Notably, this mirrors existing CFE crypto derivatives schedules. Education and Market Preparation Begin Recognizing the complexity and novelty of these products, Cboe’s Options Institute will host two public education sessions on December 17, 2025, and January 13, 2026. These courses will help traders understand: Contract specifications, Funding calculations, and Strategic use cases, ranging from hedging and volatility trading to synthetic long-term positioning. With institutional demand for regulated crypto exposure rising, especially amid expanding ETF markets, Cboe’s Continuous Futures could become one of the most significant structural upgrades to US crypto derivatives in years.

Università di Harvard Triplica le Sue Riserve in Bitcoin: ETF su BTC Balzano del 257%Negli ultimi anni Bitcoin si è consolidato come uno degli asset più redditizi e più discussi, attirando un numero crescente di investitori istituzionali. Nel 2025 l’interesse da parte di grandi fondi e università è aumentato in modo evidente — e uno degli esempi più sorprendenti arriva proprio da Harvard, considerata da molti la principale università al mondo. All’inizio di agosto, l’ateneo aveva comunicato di possedere circa 117 milioni di dollari in quote dell’ETF spot su Bitcoin di BlackRock, un investimento significativo già di per sé. Ma gli ultimi documenti finanziari mostrano un’espansione ancora più marcata: nel terzo trimestre, l’esposizione dell’università a BTC è quasi triplicata. L’ETF di BlackRock diventa l’investimento principale di Harvard L’ultimo report 13F depositato dall’università rivela che, al 30 settembre, Harvard deteneva 6,8 milioni di azioni dell’iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT) di BlackRock, per un valore complessivo di circa 443 milioni di dollari. Questa mossa si inserisce in una strategia di allocazione più ampia, che ha visto aumentare anche le partecipazioni nel fondo SPDR Gold Trust (GLD), ora pari a oltre 661.000 azioni per un valore di circa 235 milioni di dollari nel terzo trimestre del 2025. Rispetto ai 1,9 milioni di titoli IBIT dichiarati alla fine di giugno, l’aumento è impressionante: +257%. Ad oggi, l’ETF di BlackRock rappresenta la singola voce più pesante tra tutte le partecipazioni ufficiali dell’ateneo. Nonostante il peso dell’investimento sia relativamente contenuto rispetto all’immenso endowment di Harvard — circa 57 miliardi di dollari — la cifra è comunque sufficiente a posizionare l’università al 16° posto tra i maggiori detentori dell’ETF. Un segnale che rafforza ulteriormente l’immagine di Bitcoin come asset di riserva sempre più accettato dalle grandi istituzioni. Come ha osservato l’analista ETF di Bloomberg Eric Balchunas: È molto raro che un fondo universitario investa in un ETF, specialmente realtà come Harvard o Yale. Questo è il miglior riconoscimento che un ETF possa ottenere. Detto ciò, mezzo miliardo rappresenta solo l’1% del loro patrimonio totale. Ma è comunque abbastanza per renderli uno dei maggiori holder di IBIT. BlackRock registra la giornata con i deflussi più elevati Nonostante l’interesse di alcune istituzioni, gli ETF Bitcoin statunitensi stanno vivendo settimane sottotono. Nell’ultima settimana i fondi hanno cumulato deflussi netti per circa 1,1 miliardi di dollari. Il protagonista è proprio l’iShares Bitcoin Trust di BlackRock, che ha registrato tre giorni consecutivi di uscite. Secondo i dati di SoSoValue, soltanto nella giornata di venerdì 14 novembre sono stati ritirati 463,1 milioni di dollari. Nonostante ciò, IBIT rimane l’ETF spot su Bitcoin più grande sul mercato, con asset gestiti vicini ai 75 miliardi di dollari.
Bitcoin ETFs’ 100% Rally Raises More Questions Than Answers | US Crypto NewsBitcoin ETFs have surged nearly 100% since 2024, matching gold’s returns and challenging long-held assumptions about crypto’s risk profile. With institutions moving millions in BTC and ETH and younger investors driving ETF adoption, the debate over Bitcoin’s “digital gold”...
Templeton’s XRP ETF Goes Live as Bitcoin Hyper Presale Picks Up SpeedQuick Facts: Franklin Templeton’s EZRP and Bitwise’s XRP ETF arrive this week, signaling that institutional demand for major altcoins remains in place despite volatility. Nine XRP ETFs landing between November 18 and 25 could push XRP toward long-term allocation status rather than short-term speculation. With more than $27.78M raised and clear Layer 2 utility, Bitcoin Hyper offers higher-beta exposure to the same adoption trend that ETFs are reinforcing. Franklin Templeton is launching its XRP ETF, EZRP, on November 18th on the CBOE. It’s the first in a tight cluster of new XRP funds arriving on the market. Analysts expect Franklin Templeton’s EZRP to compete with Canary’s XRPC, which grabbed the early advantage but does not have Franklin Templeton’s reach or distribution power. Bitwise will follow with its own XRP ETF on November 20, setting up a real-time check on institutional appetite for the asset. This rollout is happening while crypto prices remain shaky. $BTC recently dropped from its $126K high to below $100K after heavy derivatives unwinding and security worries. Yet major asset managers continue to broaden their lineups, from single-asset XRP products to multi-coin index funds. That split between falling prices and rising product launches sends a message: Big firms still see long-term value in crypto, even when sentiment flips. For XRP, nine spot ETFs are expected to be launched between November 18th and 25th, giving mainstream investors direct exposure for the first time. If the inflows come in as expected, these funds may create steady buy-side demand that could soften volatility over time. EZRP, for example, benefits from Franklin Templeton’s large balance sheet and adviser network, a combination that may allow it to overtake smaller issuers. Clearly, crypto infrastructure keeps moving forward even when markets look messy. The same pattern is playing out on the Bitcoin side. One of the most closely tracked projects in the niche is Bitcoin Hyper ($HYPER), a Bitcoin Layer 2 presale aiming to turn idle $BTC into something more usable. With over $27.78M raised, a presale price near $0.013285, and staking rewards around 41% APY, $HYPER sits in a different risk bracket than ETFs but draws from the same adoption story. Bitcoin Hyper Brings Speed, Scalability, and Programmability to the Bitcoin Network As XRP gains its first wave of spot ETFs, the parallel for Bitcoin is not more wrappers. It is the infrastructure that upgrades what $BTC can actually do. For investors open to higher volatility, this is the category where Bitcoin Hyper stands out. Bitcoin Hyper uses Solana’s Virtual Machine for execution, while settling and securing everything back to the Bitcoin base chain. Users lock $BTC on-chain through a canonical bridge, receive a wrapped version on the Layer 2, and then move it quickly and cheaply through payments, DeFi, NFTs, and consumer apps. Combining SVM throughput with Bitcoin security gives the native crypto $HYPER a clear functional purpose. That explains why the Bitcoin Hyper token presale has climbed above $27.78M, despite choppy conditions. Clearly, crypto infrastructure keeps moving forward even when markets look messy. The same pattern is playing out on the Bitcoin side, making $HYPER one of the best cryptos to buy now. The token currently sells for about $0.013285. The staged presale model increases the price over time, rewarding early buyers and providing the team with predictable funding for development and liquidity. The Presale Frenzy Continues Early participants can lock tokens for projected yields of 41% APY, helping secure the network once the mainnet is live and encouraging longer holding periods. Our Bitcoin Hyper ($HYPER) projection places a possible 2025 high near $0.32 and a 2030 peak around $1.5, assuming strong exchange listings and dApp growth. Nothing is assured, yet even the conservative side of that range would comfortably outpace what most ETF investors typically expect from high-cap crypto exposure. That contrast explains the interest. The project continues to draw steady interest from whales, including a whale purchase worth $502K last Wednesday, even as the wider market cools. Read our How to Buy Bitcoin Hyper guide for detailed instructions on joining the presale. From the current presale level of $0.013285, the 2025 forecast range of $0.15 to $0.32 would translate to roughly 11.3x on the lower end and around 24.1x at the top. XRP ETFs are structured for institutions seeking straightforward exposure. Bitcoin Hyper gives retail and early-stage investors a chance to position themselves in the infrastructure layer that could make Bitcoin more useful in the next wave of adoption.

- Bitcoin ETFs’ 100% Rally Raises More Questions Than Answers | US Crypto News
Welcome to the US Crypto News Morning Briefing—your essential rundown of the most important developments in crypto for the day ahead. Grab a coffee and settle in—this one might make you rethink what you thought you knew about crypto. In the past year, Bitcoin has surged dramatically, posting returns that rival traditional safe-haven assets. Yet, while some see a story of stability, others see lingering questions about risk, reward, and where cryptocurrencies really belong in a portfolio. Crypto News of the Day: Crypto Returns Spark Fresh ‘Store of Value’ Debate Since January 2024, Bitcoin ETFs have surged roughly 100%, mirroring the returns of physical gold ETFs, while the S&P 500 returned just 45%. This performance has sparked a fresh debate over Bitcoin’s role in investor portfolios: is it a “risk-on” asset like stocks, or a “store of value” like gold? Since spot btc ETFs launched in Jan 2024, they’ve returned same % as physical gold ETFs…Approx 100%.S&P 500 has returned nearly 45%.So is btc a “risk on” asset like stocks or “store of value” like gold?— Nate Geraci (@NateGeraci) November 17, 2025 Nate Geraci, president of the ETF Store, highlighted the surprising parity, with the striking similarity to gold returns prompting investors to reassess Bitcoin’s traditional narrative. While Bitcoin is widely viewed as a volatile, high-risk asset, its ETF performance over the past year has aligned with one of the most stable investment vehicles in history. Against this backdrop, investors weigh whether the risk is worth the return. “I think the question for cripto is… especially ETH. Do you want to hold a high-volatility asset for that kind of return? ETH flat or down for the past 4/5 years,” one user chimed. This remark highlights the challenge for investors, who see Bitcoin’s rally offering gold-like gains, but but the risks due to volatility remain a persistent threat for crypto as an asset class. Risk-adjusted returns remain a key factor when evaluating crypto’s place in a diversified portfolio. Risks notwithstanding, BlackRock’s recent People & Money report reveals the growing retail appetite for ETFs, especially among younger investors. According to Nate Geraci’s summary: ETFs are the fastest-growing retail investment product over the last five years. 19 million US adults are likely to buy ETFs in the next 12 months, with 44% being first-time buyers, 71% under 45 years old. Equity and crypto will be the most popular allocations among these new investors, with 47% expected to invest in crypto ETFs. This data highlights a generational shift in investing behavior. Younger investors are increasingly incorporating crypto into their portfolios alongside traditional assets. This shows that the market is growing faster than conventional wisdom suggests. BlackRock Moves and Market Sentiment Institutional activity adds another layer to the debate. Whale tracker reports indicate that BlackRock recently deposited 4,880 BTC, worth approximately $467 million, and 54,730 ETH valued at nearly $176 million into the Coinbase exchange. BlackRock deposits 4,880 $BTC, worth $467.19 million, and 54,730 $ETH, worth $175.93 million into Coinbase – Arkham. pic.twitter.com/Q7RSl6c6k3— Whale Insider (@WhaleInsider) November 17, 2025 The transaction marks the second move this month. Barely two weeks ago, the asset manager transferred 2,042 BTC, worth $213 million, and 22,681 ETH, valued at $80 million, to the same exchange. Moving tokens to exchanges often suggest possible plans to sell, a move that could be bearish for Bitcoin and Ethereum prices. “Last time they did this, the market dipped soon after. Now with Bitcoin sitting near $104K… is sub-$100K next?” Kyle Doops posed on X after the initial transaction. Nonetheless, large transfers from major fund managers to exchanges could also mean strategic rebalancing. With both possibilities likely to weigh on near-term price sentiment, it is worth noting that concentrated institutional holdings could amplify market swings, particularly in high-volatility environments. Should Bitcoin be treated like digital gold, offering portfolio stability? Or is it a high-risk, high-reward asset akin to equities? Looking ahead, retail and institutional flows, ETF innovation, and macroeconomic conditions will likely define crypto’s trajectory in 2026. As younger investors increasingly allocate to crypto ETFs, the market may see both rapid growth and heightened volatility, reinforcing the need for careful portfolio strategy.

World’s Smartest Man Forecasts Bitcoin to Reach $220,000 in the Next 45 DaysYoungHoon Kim, widely promoted as the “world’s smartest man” with a claimed IQ of 276, has predicted that Bitcoin could hit $220,000 within the next 45 days.He made the bold call on November 16 in response to a Grok AI projection that Bitcoin might reach $175,000 by year-end, arguing the rally could unfold much faster as BTC trades around $95,400.Kim said a move toward $220,000 going into early 2026 is not only possible but likely, adding that if the prediction comes true, “I will use 100% of my Bitcoin profits to build churches for Jesus Christ in every nation.” As World's Highest IQ Record Holder, I expect #BITCOIN is going to $220,000 in the next 45 days.

On September 29, Kim wrote: “As the world’s highest IQ record holder and Grand Master of Memory, I believe that Bitcoin is the only hope for the future economy.“He claims to have converted all his assets into Bitcoin, expecting the cryptocurrency to appreciate 100x over the next decade, a path that would place BTC above $10 million.Kim also argues that Bitcoin will become the world’s “ultimate reserve asset,” surpassing gold, foreign currencies, and U.S. Treasuries.The 36-year-old South Korean founder of the United Sigma Intelligence Association has attracted a large online following, but his credibility is heavily debated. Future Economy: According to my theoretical analysis, within the next 10 years, Bitcoin will increase at least 100 times and be universally adopted as the ultimate reserve asset.

Best Crypto To Buy After Bitcoin’s Death Cross: Crash Risk Or Rebound Setup?What to Know: Bitcoin’s latest death cross shows heavy short-term stress, yet past cycles often delivered positive 2–3 month returns after similar signals. Bitcoin Hyper ($HYPER) uses Solana-style tech to scale $BTC, with a large presale, clear roadmap and upside tied directly to Bitcoin activity. Maxi Doge ($MAXI) is a meme-driven, Ethereum-based lifestyle token whose value depends heavily on community hype and post-fear risk appetite. Solana ($SOL) offers a more conservative way to play a potential rebound, combining deep liquidity, active dApps, and growing institutional demand. Bitcoin has just printed the dreaded ‘death cross’ on the daily chart as price slipped under $93K for the first time since May 5. The 50-day moving average has crossed below the 200-day moving average, a pattern that many traders still interpret as a classic bearish signal. Analyst KillaXBT believes there’s a 36% chance that the bear sprint will continue this Monday after glancing at Bitcoin’s pivot lows. With $BTC hovering around $95K at the time of writing and the Fear & Greed Index stuck in ‘extreme fear’ at 22, sentiment looks shaken. Several analysts also note that in bull markets, $BTC has frequently bottomed within about a week of the cross before rallying by 40–50% or more. Benjamin Cowen believes Bitcoin has one week to stabilize and bounce back. If that doesn’t happen, we should expect another dump. In that kind of environment, the ‘best crypto to buy’ question stops being about one magic ticker and becomes a risk-tier decision. Bitcoin-linked infrastructure, such as Bitcoin Hyper ($HYPER), high-beta meme plays like Maxi Doge ($MAXI), and a large-cap workhorse like Solana, each react differently to fear spikes and eventual recoveries. 1. Bitcoin Hyper ($HYPER) – BTC Layer 2 Built For The Rebound Bitcoin Hyper ($HYPER) is a Bitcoin Layer 2 that tries to bolt Solana-style speed and throughput onto the $BTC ecosystem without sacrificing security. The design routes $BTC into a canonical bridge, verifies it on-chain, then moves value onto a high-performance Layer 2 powered by the Solana Virtual Machine. That lets users send $BTC with near-instant finality, low fees, and support for dApps, DeFi, and meme coins, before ultimately settling back to Bitcoin Layer 1. The $HYPER token sits at the center of that design. Its utility includes gas, protocol fees, access to premium features, and staking. The total supply is 21B, with large allocations to development, treasury, and marketing, aiming to support the delivery of the long-term roadmap rather than just a quick pump. The mainnet launch targets Q4 2025 – Q1 2026 as the release window, with a DAO and incentives for node operators and developers scheduled for 2026. On the presale side, Bitcoin Hyper has already raised more than $27.8M at a current token price around $0.013285, signalling heavy early demand for $BTC-centric infrastructure while Bitcoin itself is under pressure. Our price prediction for $HYPER has it eyeing $0.02595 in 2025 and $0.08625 by the end of 2026 if the team hits its milestones and listings arrive on schedule. That implies an upside of roughly 2x to 6x from the current presale level in bullish scenarios, if you invest today. You can read our guide on how to buy $HYPER today if you’re interested. Visit the presale page and purchase your $HYPER today. 2. Maxi Doge ($MAXI) – High-Octane Meme Play On Post-Fear Volatility Maxi Doge ($MAXI) lives at the opposite end of the spectrum. It’s an Ethereum-based meme coin built around a gym-obsessed, 1000x-leverage Doge persona. The branding leans into degen culture: ‘max gainz’, sleepless trading, and a lifestyle vibe more than traditional ‘utility’. Under the memes, though, there is a clear token design. Presale numbers show that this pitch is landing. The Maxi Doge sale has already raised more than $4M at a token price around $0.0002685, with staking APYs currently at 76% for early participants. That combination of low unit price, strong marketing budget, and staking hook is exactly what tends to attract meme-coin hunters when markets flip from fear to greed again. From a death-cross perspective, Maxi Doge is a pure beta play. If Bitcoin stabilizes and follows its historical pattern of strong 2–3 month rebounds, capital could leak back into higher-risk corners of the market and $MAXI is ready. This project caters to traders who actively seek volatility, understand meme-coin risk, and treat staking rewards as a sweetener rather than a guarantee. Visit the presale page and buy your $MAXI today. 3. Solana ($SOL) – High-Throughput L1 With ETF Tailwinds Solana ($SOL) is the established name in this trio. It is a high-throughput Layer 1 that uses a proof-of-stake design plus unique time-ordering to support thousands of transactions per second with low fees. Over the last year, it has become the backbone for a huge chunk of DeFi, NFT, and meme-coin activity, and it has started to attract institutional interest as a candidate for spot ETFs. At the time of writing, $SOL trades around $142 with a market cap above $78B, sitting sixth in the crypto rankings. Solana spot ETFs have logged tens of millions of dollars in weekly inflows even as Bitcoin ETFs see outflows, which suggests some institutions are rotating down the risk curve into high-beta majors rather than leaving the asset class entirely. How does that intersect with Bitcoin’s death cross? Historically, when $BTC stabilizes after a sharp flush, strong Layer 1s with active ecosystems often rebound faster and harder than Bitcoin itself. Solana already demonstrated that dynamic when it briefly overtook $BNB in market cap during earlier stages of this cycle, and when rallies above $200 followed periods of consolidation. Solana trades on all major centralized exchanges, including Binance and Coinbase, and is accessible through most large wallets and DeFi protocols, which makes scaling exposure or taking profits much simpler than with presale tokens. Get your $SOL on Binance today. Recap: Bitcoin’s confirmed death cross has pushed sentiment back into ‘extreme fear’, but history suggests the pattern can still precede strong 2–3 month recoveries rather than immediate collapse. Against that backdrop, Bitcoin Hyper ($HYPER), Maxi Doge ($MAXI) and Solana ($SOL) represent three distinct ways to position: a $BTC-native Layer 2, a high-risk meme coin built for volatility, and a large-cap Layer 1 already attracting ETF flows. This is not financial advice. DYOR and manage risk wisely before investing.

Here’s Why The Ethereum Price Is Crashing Again, Can It Breach $3,000?The Ethereum price has slipped deeper into a bearish structure that has intensified over the past week. A combination of weakening momentum, strong ETF outflows, and selling from long-term holders has dragged the price of Ethereum lower at a pace that has led to concerns about whether the cryptocurrency is preparing for a deeper correction. The latest decline has now placed the $3,000 region back into view and it opens up the question of whether the momentum behind this downturn is strong enough to force another breakdown below $3,000. Ethereum Price Slips Below Moving Averages As ETF Outflows Deepen New data from 10x Research reveals that Ethereum is now trading firmly below both the 7-day and 30-day moving averages, confirming a clean shift toward bearish momentum. The latest one-week change shows a decline of -6.6%, with the price failing to regain the short-term trendline at any point during the sell-off. The chart provided by the research firm illustrates how ETH-USD rolled over throughout early November as both moving averages curved downward, indicating that market structure has fully weakened. This technical deterioration is unfolding at the same time the Ethereum ETF market is experiencing one of its heaviest redemptions on record. According to data from SoSoValue, spot ETH ETFs have now seen more than $1.4 billion in net outflows since the beginning of November, a change that shows the decisive shift in institutional appetite. The combination of sustained selling pressure and shrinking ETF demand has created a feedback loop that continues to pull ETH lower whenever each price support level fails. Long-Term Holders Selling Fastest Since 2021, But Whales Are Accumulating On-chain flows paint a picture of an ecosystem under strain. Data shows that long-term ETH holders, wallets that have held their coins for three to ten years, are now selling at their fastest rate since 2021. This group is known to be dormant during most phases of the market, so their recent activity has introduced a strong supply wave that exchanges have struggled to absorb. However, the dynamic is not entirely one-directional. On-chain data shows that a few large whale wallets have stepped in aggressively during the downturn and bought hundreds of thousands of ETH worth over $1 billion. Meanwhile, the scale of accumulation has not been large enough to counteract the broader selling from long-term holders or the ETF outflows, leaving the price of Ethereum trapped inside a downward-tilting trend channel. Ethereum is now trading around $3,182, but its intraday low has stretched as far as $3,023. This leaves very little margin between the current level and the support zone at $3,000. If sellers continue to dominate and push the price below the $3,150 to $3,200 range, a direct slide to $3,000 becomes increasingly likely during the new week.

Digital Asset Products See $2B Outflows as 3-Week Rout Drains $3.2BDigital asset investment products suffered their heaviest weekly outflows since February, with $2 billion exiting the market last week. Key Takeaways: Digital asset products recorded $2 billion in weekly outflows, extending a three-week total to $3.2 billion. Analysts blamed the downturn on monetary policy uncertainty and heavy whale selling. Bitcoin and Ethereum products saw the largest withdrawals, while multi-asset funds attracted modest inflows. The sell-off marked the third consecutive week of withdrawals, bringing total outflows over the period to $3.2 billion, according to a Monday report from CoinShares.The slump follows sharp price declines across major cryptocurrencies, which have pushed total assets under management in digital asset ETPs down 27% from their early-October peak of $264 billion to $191 billion.Whale Selling and Fed Uncertainty Blamed for Crypto Market SlideAnalysts cited ongoing monetary policy uncertainty and aggressive selling from crypto-native whale wallets as the main drivers behind the downturn.The US accounted for the overwhelming share of outflows, with $1.97 billion leaving U.S.-based products.Switzerland and Hong Kong followed at a distance, recording $39.9 million and $12.3 million in outflows.Germany stood out as the lone bright spot, attracting $13.2 million in inflows as local investors treated the correction as a buying opportunity.Bitcoin products saw the largest withdrawals, shedding $1.38 billion last week, a three-week bleed equal to roughly 2% of total Bitcoin ETP assets under management.Ethereum fared even worse on a proportional basis, with $689 million in outflows representing 4% of its ETP market.

伯恩斯坦:近期比特币抛售主要源于投资者对四年周期高点的担忧ChainCatcher 消息,据 The Block 报道,比特币(BTC)自创下约 12.6 万美元历史新高以来下跌约 25%。伯恩斯坦的分析师 Gautam Chhugani 周一在给客户的报告中表示,此次下跌反映了投资者对历史四年周期模式的焦虑——该模式曾在 2013、2017 和 2021 年出现高点——许多投资者因认为 2025 年将重演而提前在市场疲软时卖出,从而在一定程度上形成了自我实现的预言。然而,他们认为当前的基本面更为强劲,数据显示这更可能是“相对浅的回调”,形成新的局部底部,而非历史周期中出现的 60% 到 70% 的跌幅——这得益于长期持有者供应的大量吸收。分析指出,过去六个月,持币至少一年的投资者出售了约 34 万枚 BTC(约 380 亿美元),而约 340 亿美元的资金流入现货 ETF 和企业彩裤,已在很大程度上吸收了这些抛售。展望未来,分析师认为,市场“并不像处于周期高点”,而更像是由机构参与和周期性适度回调定义的多年趋势的一部分。他们关注比特币能否在约 8 万美元附近建立底部——这一水平出现在去年的美国总统大选之后,并认为当前回调可能为数字资产及相关股票提供一个具有吸引力的入场机会。
XRP Whales Offload Nearly 200M Tokens After Splashy ETF DebutXRP whales have unloaded nearly 200 million tokens in the 48 hours following the debut of the first US spot XRP ETF, dampening the excitement from one of the most anticipated launches in the asset’s history. Key Takeaways: XRP whales dumped nearly 200 million tokens within 48 hours of the ETF launch, signaling heavy selling pressure. Despite a blockbuster ETF debut, XRP’s price slipped as whales sold and technical indicators turned bearish. The divergence between whale selling and institutional inflows reflects broader risk-off sentiment across the crypto market. In a recent post on X, on-chain analyst Ali said large holders “dumped nearly 200 million XRP in just 48 hours,” a signal that the biggest wallets are selling into the post-ETF rally rather than accumulating.XRP’s SEC Triumph Paves Way for Blockbuster ETF Launch on NasdaqThe selling comes at a pivotal moment for XRP, now the fourth-largest cryptocurrency with a market cap of roughly $136 billion.Its community has been celebrating a years-long legal victory over the US Securities and Exchange Commission, which in 2023 led a federal court to rule that XRP is not a security when traded on exchanges.That ruling helped push institutions back toward XRP and set the stage for Thursday’s launch of the Canary Capital XRP ETF on Nasdaq, the strongest ETF debut of the year with $58 million in first-day trading volume and more than $250 million in inflows.However, whales appear unmoved by the milestone. XRP has fallen 4.3% in 24 hours, sliding from $2.31 to $2.22 and forming a clear lower-highs pattern that suggests near-term bearish pressure.Crypto trader Tara warned that XRP is breaking down toward key buy levels around $2 and could drop further to $2.05 or even $1.88 unless Bitcoin stabilizes. She said volatility is likely to increase as XRP approaches these zones. #XRP is starting to break down and will be reaching buy targets soon! This could REALLY be one of the LAST buying opportunities that we get around $2! Remember, we've added in that possible subwave 3 fib at ~$2.10 – We need to watch #Bitcoin closely (and the RSI!) when XRP…— TARA (@PrecisionTrade3) November 16, 2025 The ETF’s strong inflows have not been reflected in trading volume because the product uses in-kind creations, allowing institutions to exchange ETF shares directly for XRP without activity showing up on public order books.ETF analyst Nate Geraci said this explains how the ETF posted low visible volume but high inflows.At the same time, data from Nansen shows that top-performing “smart money” wallets added $44 million in long positions over the past day.The disconnect between whale selling and institutional interest may come down to broader market conditions.Crypto remains in a risk-off phase, with Bitcoin ETFs seeing $866 million in outflows on the same day, one of their worst sessions on record.Ripple Welcomes Fed Proposal Giving Crypto Firms Access to Payment RailsLast week, Ripple’s chief legal officer, Stu Alderoty, said a proposal from Federal Reserve Governor Christopher Waller to allow crypto companies access to “skinny” Fed accounts could reshape the US digital asset landscape.Waller argued that stablecoin issuers and other crypto firms should be able to tap directly into the Fed’s payment systems, reducing reliance on traditional banks that often hesitate to serve the sector.He urged regulators to “embrace the disruption — don’t avoid it,” signaling a more open stance toward decentralized finance.Ripple, which previously applied for a Fed master account to support its RLUSD stablecoin, sees the idea as transformative.Alderoty told Reuters the proposal could speed up settlement, lower costs and help RLUSD gain traction in a competitive stablecoin market dominated by Tether and Circle.He added that having direct access to the Fed would improve stability and redeemability, enabling firms to move quickly between U.S. Treasuries and dollars without banking middlemen.The post XRP Whales Offload Nearly 200M Tokens After Splashy ETF Debut appeared first on Cryptonews.

Market pricing for a December Federal Reserve rate cut plummeted to around 40% from more than 60% the previous week, pushing investors toward cash and away from risk assets. MARKETS NOW SEE A 45.8% CHANCE OF A FED RATE CUT IN DECEMBER! pic.twitter.com/SLh86SvwSJ— That Martini Guy ₿ (@MartiniGuyYT) November 17, 2025 Short-Term Holders Drive CapitulationCryptoQuant analyst concluded that short-term holder capitulation dominated Bitcoin’s decline from the $126,000 peak, rather than long-term holder distribution. STH SOPR repeatedly fell below 1, confirming active loss-taking, while spent output age bands showed coins younger than three months represented most volume during the dump.Source: CryptoQuantLong-term holders increased selling since September, but the pattern remained consistent with normal mid-cycle profit-taking rather than aggressive blow-off distribution seen at cycle tops.Despite declining prices, Bitcoin’s Realized Cap increased, indicating that fresh capital continued to enter through new short-term holders. These inflows proved insufficient to absorb capitulation from older STH cohorts combined with ongoing LTH distribution. The Bitcoin ETF Realized Price stood at $86,680, leaving BTC trading roughly 9% above the average cost basis of ETF buyers.CryptoQuant analysts emphasized that marginal price pressure came from STH deleveraging and forced selling during stress periods. “Even if LTHs sold more in total over months, markets react to marginal flows during stress,” the analysis stated. “On dump days, leveraged STHs triggered rapid sell-offs and liquidations, creating the steepest downward momentum.” Based on the on-chain structure, we are seeing a bull market correction rather than a cycle top reversal, despite the severity of recent losses.ETF Outflows Intensify As Institutional Demand CoolsUS spot Bitcoin ETFs recorded weekly outflows of $1.11 billion from November 10 to 14, marking the third consecutive week of institutional retreat. BlackRock’s IBIT bled $532.41 million, representing the largest net outflow, while Grayscale Bitcoin Mini Trust logged nearly $290 million in weekly losses. Total net asset value of spot Bitcoin ETFs stood at $125.34 billion, representing 6.67% of Bitcoin’s market capitalization. ₿ US spot Bitcoin ETFs saw their third consecutive week of outflows, recording $1.11 billion from November 10 to 14.#BitcoinETF #ETFOutflows #BTCPricehttps://t.co/RjSg20vVbu— Cryptonews.com (@cryptonews) November 17, 2025 Simon Gerovich, CEO of Japanese Bitcoin treasury company Metaplanet, argued that ETF outflows don’t undermine Bitcoin treasury companies. “A BTC ETF provides fixed exposure to Bitcoin,” he wrote, adding that ETF holdings won’t increase without fund inflows to support them. The crypto market capitalization fell to $3.31 trillion, down 0.9% from previous levels, erasing $1.1 trillion over 41 days.Technical Retest Meets Historical Fear ParallelsBitcoin tested its 2025 yearly opening around $94,000-$95,000 after closing the weekly candle above that level, creating potential support following a 27% correction from $128,000 peaks. Trader Plan C noted Bitcoin remained within a wide consolidation range from $75,000 to $126,000, with the bottom of this range marking the top of the previous range. Meanwhile, Max Crypto observed BTC posted its first weekly close below the 50-EMA since Q3 2023, prompting some analysts to assign an 80% bear market probability if the pattern persisted through November 24. #Bitcoin The warning no one wants to hearMarket cycles deserve nuance.

Current fear levels occurring at $94,930, 4.7x higher than those 2022 lows, suggested sentiment had decoupled from price, historically marking conditions near major bottoms. However, historical precedent from July 2022 showed Bitcoin remained depressed for several months before beginning recovery.Michael van de Poppe outlined conditional recovery potential, stating he wanted to see Bitcoin hold $94,000 and test $100,000 within the week following the weekend low sweep.“If that happens, then there’s trillions and trillions of short liquidity ready to be taken out,” he said.The post Crypto Fear Index Hits 10, Lowest Since July 2022 — What Happens Next? appeared first on Cryptonews.

XRP Slides 8% Weekly, But Can Evernode’s Momentum Reverse the Trend?Investor interest is shifting. While Evernode gains momentum in the ecosystem, XRP faces mixed signals on both short and long timeframes. Crypto trader WillyWonkaXRP commented, “I’ve been focusing on Evernode because frankly speaking it’s got MAJOR legs,” adding that he’s stepping back into Ripple coverage to counter misinformation. Evernode is a Layer-2 smart contract solution operating on the XRP Ledger (XRPL). It runs on the Xanau sidechain and allows developers to build dApps using various programming languages on a scalable network of hosts. XRP Moves Within Ascending Channel XRP is holding inside an ascending channel on the chart. The price recently tested the lower edge of the structure and bounced. This area has acted as support multiple times and continues to do so. As long as the asset stays above this trendline, the pattern remains valid. Source: WillyWonkaXRP/X Over the past week, XRP has dropped more than 8%, with a daily decline of less than 1%. A key observation is the long lower wick formed near the support line. This suggests buyers are active in that zone. If the current structure continues, a move toward $2.8 to $3 could follow. A breakout above this range may push the price higher, with some projections between $6 and $9. Bull Flag Above 2021 Highs Analyst ChartNerd pointed out a possible bull flag on the longer timeframe. “$XRP: Zooming into the fractal, the bull flag/pennant structure holding above the 2021 highs should not be ignored,” the analyst shared. The support is around $2, which aligns with the previous cycle’s peak. The flag pattern formed after a sharp move up earlier this year. Since then, XRP has been trading within a narrowing range. This type of consolidation often leads to a continuation move. The estimated breakout target from this setup is $20, based on the height of the flagpole. Short-Term Resistance and Support Levels According to CRYPTOWZRD, XRP is trading below $2.25, which is now a key short-term resistance. A move toward $2.41 could trigger a short setup if the price fails to hold that level. On the other hand, if XRP breaks and holds above that line, it may open the door for further upside. Notably, the next support level on the lower time frame is $2.08. Until the chart forms a more defined structure, the trading range remains uncertain. The same analyst also noted that XRP/BTC strength may return if Bitcoin dominance continues to fall, possibly helping Ripple’s token reach $2.75. Scam Warnings and Market Activity Ripple has issued new warnings on social media about scams targeting XRP holders. They follow the recent Swell event and coincide with the introduction of a spot XRP ETF in the US. The attention from these events may be drawing out new fraud attempts. Meanwhile, large wallet activity shows consistent selling from major XRP holders. These movements have raised some questions within the community, especially during a period of broader market volatility. Traders are monitoring wallet flows and exchange data as the market looks for a clear direction.

4E:比特币抹去年内涨幅,相关性飙升与资金退潮共振压制行情ChainCatcher 消息,在加密熊市加剧及风险偏好降温的背景下,比特币自去年底以来的全部涨幅已被完全抹去。周一凌晨 BTC 跌破 93,600 美元,触及年初开盘价下方。Bitwise CIO Matthew Hougan 指出,主要买家——包括ETF配置者与机构债务配置方——在过去一个月持续撤离,使原本支撑 BTC 创新高的资金流失效应开始显现。41 天内,加密市场总市值蒸发 1.1 万亿美元,当前清算规模虽较 10 月 10 日峰值低约 10%,但风险情绪依旧脆弱。 与此同时,比特币与美国科技股的联动快速攀升。Kobeissi Letter 数据显示,BTC 与纳指 100 的 30 日相关性升至 0.80,创 2022 年以来新高,五年相关性亦达 0.54。比特币正表现得更像“高贝塔科技股”,而非独立的宏观对冲资产。 在情绪承压的同时,外部结构性变化也值得关注。全球ETF发行量在 10 月达到 137 只新基金,其中加密货币 ETF 新增...

Bitcoin Just Entered ‘Structural’ Bear Market: What Does It Mean and What’s Next?Bitcoin’s price dumped once again on Sunday afternoon to a new six-month low of $93,000. On the surface, the reasoning behind the latest crash is quite slim, as there aren’t any significant catalysts that can be blamed. However, the analysts from the Kobeissi Letter believe there’s a more profound and fundamental shift in the cryptocurrency market, and explained why a new type of ‘structural’ bear cycle has begun. Why Such Big Moves? Before we head into the explanation of this sort of bear market, first, we need to examine the analysts’ culprits for the overall market calamity. After all, BTC has lost 25% since its early October all-time high, and now sits at six-month lows of $95,000 after the Sunday dip. As they admitted, this decline is particularly “strange for one key reason.” “There haven’t been many material bearish developments on the fundamental side of crypto. Just days ago, President Trump said America being “number one in crypto” is his top priority.” Additionally, inflation in the US is gradually declining, the Federal Reserve has cut interest rates again, and Washington and Beijing are close to a trade deal. As a result, the landscape now appears a lot more bullish than it did in April, for example. Consequently, the analysts categorized the current downturn as “structural and mechanical.” They noted that it began with institutional outflows in mid-to-late October, which is evident from the ETF numbers. In the first week of November, crypto-focused funds experienced $1.2 billion in net outflows, marking a record. However, where it gets particularly tricky in crypto is the excessive levels of leverage used during these institutional outflows, the Kobeissi Letter explained. As a result, when these sudden downswings happen in crypto, liquidations surge. As seen on October 10th, the -$19.2 billion liquidation spree led to the first ever $20,000 BTC daily candlestick. Excessive levels of leverage have resulted in a seemingly hypersensitive market. pic.twitter.com/oJtnYQNQTm — The Kobeissi Letter (@KobeissiLetter) November 16, 2025 What’s Next? The post added that 3 out of the last 16 trading days have seen liquidations skyrocketing to over $1 billion. Moreover, the analysts noted that daily liquidations of more than $500 million have become an everyday occurrence. As such, they indicated that when this is combined with ‘thin’ volume, the price swings in either direction become violent. This also explains the massive shift in market sentiment. As reported over the weekend, the Fear and Greed Index has gone to its lowest levels since February, even though BTC is up by 25% since the April bottom. “Leverage is amplifying shifts in investor sentiment,” the analysts said. Nevertheless, the team concluded that the fundamental value of the cryptocurrency market has only improved. They predicted that the bottom is near, as these wrinkles “will work their way out.” Therefore, when you really zoom out, it seems that crypto is in a “structural” bear market. The fundamental value of crypto has only improved, but market dynamics are shifting. As with any efficient market, the wrinkles will work their way out. We think the bottom is near. pic.twitter.com/ra2QaFwoHy — The Kobeissi Letter (@KobeissiLetter) November 16, 2025 The post Bitcoin Just Entered ‘Structural’ Bear Market: What Does It Mean and What’s Next? appeared first on CryptoPotato.

Asia Market Open: Bitcoin Tumbles To $93K, Markets Curb Risk Ahead Of Fed SignalsGood morning, Asia. Here’s what’s moving before the bell.Bitcoin fell to $93,000 on Monday in Asia, its sharpest drop since March, as traders trimmed expectations of a December US rate cut and global stocks opened on the defensive.Liquidations told the story. CoinGlass data showed $617.45m wiped out in 24 hours, with longs at $394.50m and shorts at $222.95m. Bitcoin accounted for $242.19m and Ether for $169.06m. The largest single wipeout was a $30.60m BTC position on Hyperliquid.Wall Street set a weak tone.

Germany’s DAX fell 1.39%, the FTSE 100 slipped 1.05%, France’s CAC 40 eased 0.11%, and the Euro Stoxx 50 lost 0.83%.Asia followed with a mixed open. Japan’s Nikkei 225 dropped 1.77%, Australia’s S&P ASX 200 fell 1.35%, New Zealand’s benchmark declined 1.58% and Shanghai edged down 0.16%.Rate expectations kept risk in check. Market pricing for a December Fed cut slid to around 40% from more than 60% a week ago, pushing investors toward cash and away from high beta trades.Liquidations Pile Up As Crypto Markets Struggle For SupportCrypto mirrored that shift. Spot ETF outflows picked up and liquidity thinned, leaving Bitcoin to give back gains built on easier policy hopes. By late morning, it hovered near $95,051 after the early plunge.Japan added a domestic twist. The Asahi reported the Financial Services Agency is weighing rules that would treat crypto as financial products subject to insider trading restrictions, with a tax cut to a flat 20% and new disclosures for 105 listed tokens.Equity traders also eyed a heavy week for earnings and delayed US data that could shape the rate narrative. Tech leaders remained in focus as investors reassessed valuations built on artificial intelligence enthusiasm.In the liquidation tape, pressure was steady through the session. Twelve-hour liquidations totaled $389.39m with $283.40m from longs. Four-hour totals reached $76.11m, led by short losses at $67.04m.Traders said renewed institutional conviction will decide whether the next move is a base or another leg lower.The post Asia Market Open: Bitcoin Tumbles To $93K, Markets Curb Risk Ahead Of Fed Signals appeared first on Cryptonews.

The past week has been particularly painful, as it has plummeted by 17% since last Sunday. On a daily scale, ADA is down by 5.5% and now sits below $0.48, which is the lowest price tag since the early October massacre. The analyst with over 160,000 followers on X gave some hope to ADA investors, asserting that the TD Sequential, a metric used to determine a particular asset’s exhaustion in either direction, had flashed a buy signal. The indicator previously flagged ADA’s top and could now suggest that a larger rebound is about to take place. XRP Situation Worse The landscape around XRP is even more worrisome. Ripple whales have been selling massive portions of the asset for over a month. At one point, CryptoPotato reported that they had offloaded 1.4 billion tokens within a 30-day period. Their selling spree has continued during and after the Friday market-wide crash. Additional data from Martinez shows that they dumped another 200 million tokens, worth over $400 million at today’s prices. Whales dumped nearly 200 million $XRP in just 48 hours! pic.twitter.com/4qObRnDE0X — Ali (@ali_charts) November 16, 2025 Somewhat expected, this growing selling pressure from large market participants has harmed the underlying asset’s price, which is down by 4% in the past 24 hours alone (7% weekly) and now trades well below $2.20. Martinez brought up something positive for the XRP Army as well, though. He noted earlier today that the number of whale transactions hit 716 daily, each worth more than $1 million. This is the highest count in four months, and suggests that the overall interest in the asset is spiking. This could be due to the recent launch of a spot XRP ETF in the United States, which broke the record for first-day trading volume for this year.

Why XRP Tundra’s Price of $10 Suddenly Might Not Sound Crazy After This Week’s ETF LaunchThe launch of Canary Capital’s spot XRP ETF has altered the market’s expectations for the entire XRP ecosystem. XRPC debuted with $59 million in first-day volume, making it the biggest ETF launch of the year and surpassing Bitwise’s BSOL debut. Within hours, analysts began reevaluating where the XRP market could realistically move over the next several years — and why $10 projections are no longer viewed as speculative fantasy. This shift doesn’t just affect XRP itself. For emerging ecosystems built directly on or aligned with XRPL architecture, such as XRP Tundra, the implications are broader. A payments-focused blockchain attracting institutional capital at this rate changes how investors assess long-term value across the entire XRPL-linked landscape. ETF Demand Shows Institutions Are Now Treating XRP as a Payments Rail, Not a Speculative Token XRPC’s performance didn’t just exceed expectations — it reset them. Bloomberg ETF analyst Eric Balchunas noted that out of more than 900 ETF launches this year, none matched the opening demand for XRP. The volume even edged out Bitwise’s BSOL, a major benchmark for early digital-asset ETF adoption. This matters because institutional volume behaves differently from retail trading. Funds entering through an XRP ETF are participating in the network not for volatility swings but for its underlying payment-rail functionality. Canary Capital CIO McClurg emphasized this point clearly in an interview with Crypto Prime, arguing that XRP is fundamentally unlike Bitcoin or Ethereum. Rather than competing as a store of value or smart-contract platform, the XRP Ledger acts as a global settlement layer for fast, low-cost transactions. If the market begins valuing XRP the way traditional finance values settlement infrastructure — like SWIFT alternatives or cross-border payment networks — demand expands far beyond speculative cycles. That shift directly benefits secondary ecosystems built on XRPL reliability. Price Models Now Push XRP Into a Higher Long-Term Range McClurg rejected extreme community forecasts of $1,000 or higher, but he did emphasize that $10 is entirely achievable within three to four years. The logic is straightforward: XRP replacing even a fraction of global remittance volume — where workers currently pay 8%–15% in fees — radically increases utility-driven demand. The payments market is not theoretical; it is an existing multi-trillion-dollar sector with real cost inefficiencies. Near-instant transfers and low fees give the XRP Ledger a measurable advantage, especially in emerging markets. Reaching Bitcoin’s approximate $2 trillion market cap would place XRP near $35, a scenario requiring extensive adoption. But institutional ETF inflows now create a bridge toward sustained, utility-driven appreciation — something the market lacked until this week. For XRPL-aligned ecosystems, this shift introduces a new pricing dynamic: projects no longer rely solely on speculative presale cycles but benefit from a network whose institutional adoption curve is strengthening in real time. XRP Tundra Gains Attention as Investors Look Toward XRPL Ecosystem The ETF launch has intensified interest in alternative XRPL-focused projects, especially those offering clear mechanics and cross-chain infrastructure. XRP Tundra fits that profile. It operates across the XRP Ledger and Solana, giving it access to XRPL’s payment settlement logic while leveraging Solana’s execution capabilities. For investors looking at ecosystems rather than individual tokens, this dual-chain design provides diversification without leaving the XRP framework. For those researching whether XRP Tundra is legit, they can check the following article. The project publishes its audits, KYC verification and contract transparency — a critical point for those tracking XRPL activity after the ETF launch. Investors are now evaluating the ecosystem with the same due-diligence standards applied to traditional financial assets. Structural Advantages: Why XRP Tundra Appeals to Post-ETF Capital Flows XRP Tundra’s dual-token model is increasingly relevant in the new institutional environment. TUNDRA-S (Solana) handles ecosystem utility and, upon Cryo Vault activation, yield generation. TUNDRA-X (XRPL) serves governance and reserve functions. This separation resembles the architecture institutions favor — utility segregated from oversight — rather than the single-token models that often suffer post-launch volatility. Presale participation also remains accessible, currently in Phase 11, where TUNDRA-S is $0.183 with a 9% bonus, and buyers receive TUNDRA-X for free at its $0.0915 reference value. With XRP’s long-term outlook strengthening, interest in secondary XRPL-backed ecosystems is rising accordingly. Institutional commentary around ecosystem expansion has appeared across analysis channels, including a recent breakdown by Crypto League. The coverage emphasized that projects offering traceable token roles and verifiable infrastructure tend to benefit most when major inflows arrive through ETF vehicles. Verification Standards Now Matter More Than Ever Institutional sentiment toward XRP has changed, but institutional requirements have not. Compliance, documentation and auditability remain central. XRP Tundra maintains a verification trail through: Cyberscope Solidproof FreshCoins Vital Block KYC As more institutional capital flows toward XRPL, projects with transparent architecture will be first in line for attention. The ETF launch significantly accelerates that process. With XRP now validated in a way the market has never seen before, forecasts that once sounded far-fetched are receiving fresh scrutiny. And for ecosystems aligned with the same technology, such as XRP Tundra, the environment has shifted dramatically in their favor. Interested investors can secure their Phase 11 allocation as XRP’s institutional demand sets a new baseline for XRPL-linked ecosystems.

ChatGPT’s Bold Ripple (XRP) Price Predictions for the Week AheadThe cryptocurrency market was hit by another substantial price correction in the past few days, with BTC dumping to a six-month low, while many altcoins followed suit. Ripple’s native cross-border token was no exception, but to a less painful degree. Although it’s also in the red weekly, its losses were actually more modest, perhaps driven by the hype around the recently launched spot XRP ETF in the US by Canary Capital. The focus now goes to the upcoming week, and what can we expect after another market-wide wipeout? XRPUSD. Source: TradingView What’s Next for XRP? The first couple of weeks of November have been quite eventful and mostly violent for XRP. The asset peaked at just over $2.55 on a few occasions, with the latest such example on November 11. However, it quickly lost its momentum and dropped below $2.20 on Friday during the overall crash. Its recovery attempt was stopped at $2.30, and we decided to ask ChatGPT about its outlook on what’s to follow. It also highlighted the impressive launch of the first spot XRP ETF with 100% exposure to the asset, and noted that such product releases are typically classic sell-the-news events. As such, it wasn’t surprising that the underlying asset dropped after XRPC hit the US markets. Nevertheless, it believes the ETF is fundamentally bullish for Ripple’s token and could help stabilize its price by setting a short-term floor at around $2.10-$2.20 if it gathers solid AUM in the first few trading sessions. From a technical standpoint, the AI solution noted that XRP’s first major resistance lies at $2.35-$2.40. If broken, the next one is at $2.50, followed by $2.70-$2.80 before a potential surge to the psychological $3.00 level. In contrast, if the aforementioned floor at $2.20 gives in, XRP can rely on $2.00 to halt its downfall. Bear vs Bull Case OpenAI’s product outlined some more precise predictions for the next seven days, including a bull case, which will see XRP peak at $2.70 but no higher in case the overall market conditions improve. In contrast, the bear scenario envisions the asset dumping to as low as $1.90. However, both of those options are less likely, ChatGPT explained, and noted that the base case for XRP is to remain within a consolidation state between $2.15 and $2.45. “Overall, the next week could serve as an early test of real investor demand for the new ETF. While it may not instantly trigger a sharp recovery, consistent inflows and a steadier macro backdrop could help XRP consolidate above $2.20 and set up for a gradual rebound heading into mid-November,” it concluded.

Bitcoin Price Plunges to $94,000, Hitting Six-Month Low as Macro Fears MountBitcoin Magazine Bitcoin Price Plunges to $94,000, Hitting Six-Month Low as Macro Fears Mount Bitcoin price slid to fresh six-month lows on Friday, breaking decisively below the psychological $100,000 mark and intensifying a sell-off that has wiped out nearly a quarter of its value in just over a month. By midday, the bitcoin price was trading between $94,000 and $97,000, its weakest level since early May and a steep fall from October’s $126,296 all-time high, according to Bitcoin Magazine Pro data. At the time of writing, the bitcoin price is at $94,850 but it bounced off of levels at $94,000. The drop caps off a chaotic week across global markets, where risk assets, from tech giants to crypto stocks, have tumbled amid collapsing expectations for a Federal Reserve rate cut in December. Just two weeks ago, traders were pricing in a near-certain 97% chance of easing. Today, that probability has plunged to roughly 50%, triggering deleveraging across equities and digital assets alike. Why is the Bitcoin price dropping? The macro pressures are only part of the story. The Bitcoin price is facing internal market dynamics that have amplified the decline. According to new data from CryptoQuant, long-term holders have sold an estimated 815,000 BTC in the past 30 days— the largest such exodus since early 2024. Spot demand has weakened at the worst possible moment, and U.S.-listed spot Bitcoin ETFs have recorded hundreds of millions in daily outflows, draining liquidity while fueling downside momentum. The turmoil extends beyond crypto. Risk-sensitive equities—including Nvidia, Tesla, Palantir, Coinbase, and Bitcoin miners—were hammered in this week’s sessions as investors fled speculative assets. Rising concerns over an AI bubble, combined with uncertainty surrounding delayed U.S. economic data following the 43-day government shutdown, have pushed the VIX to its highest reading since mid-October. Institutional buying has fallen below the daily supply issued by miners, adding steady sell pressure at a time when liquidity is thinning. Bitcoin price is teetering at tricky levels Bitcoin price is now hovering near its closely watched 365-day moving average around the $100,000, a level analysts say could determine whether the current pullback turns into a sharper correction, according to Bitcoin Magazine Pro. Researchers at Bitfinex noted to Bitcoin Magazine that the drawdown from October’s peak is tracking closely with typical mid-cycle retracements, matching the roughly 22% pullbacks seen throughout the 2023–2025 bull market. Despite the slide below a bitcoin price of $100,000, they estimate that about 72% of all circulating bitcoin remains in profit — an indication that long-term holders are still sitting on gains even as sentiment weakens. Other analysts see signs that the market may be nearing a floor. JPMorgan estimates bitcoin’s current production cost — driven higher by rising network difficulty — sits around $94,000, a level that has historically acted as a strong downside anchor. With the price now approaching that threshold, the bank argues that bitcoin’s price-to-cost ratio is back near historical lows and maintains a bullish 6–12 month outlook targeting roughly $170,000. Still, the forces shaping this correction are far larger than retail traders. Whales, institutions, and leveraged market structures now dictate most major moves. Single transfers from wallets holding thousands of BTC can shift sentiment across exchanges. But bitcoin’s recent wave of whale selling isn’t a sign of panic but typical late-cycle behavior, according to Glassnode. Glassnode says long-term holders are steadily realizing profits, with monthly spending rising from 12,000 BTC per day in July to about 26,000 — consistent with normal bull-market distribution rather than an “OG whale exodus.” The broader backdrop isn’t helping. The U.S. government has reopened after a record 43-day shutdown, the longest in American history, following President Trump’s late-Wednesday approval of a temporary funding measure. Under the bill, federal agencies are funded only through Jan. 30, meaning uncertainty will continue to hang over markets even as operations slowly resume. At press time, bitcoin price is trading at $95,670, hovering near production-cost levels and testing key technical support.

Bitcoin Price Crashes to $94,000 and New Six-Month LowsBitcoin Magazine Bitcoin Price Crashes to $94,000 and New Six-Month Lows Bitcoin price fell sharply today, sliding from an intraday high of $104,000 to $94,480, wiping out earlier gains and marking a decisive breakdown in price action. Twelve hours ago, the Bitcoin price hit above $100,000 and then consistently bled down from the upper $101,000s to lows of $94,480. Ethereum dropped below $3,100 at times and crypto stocks like Coinbase ($COIN) and Strategy ($MSTR) are trading in the red in pre-market trading. Also, the Bitcoin Fear and Greed Index has plunged to a new “Extreme Fear” low, signaling deep market anxiety even as long-term holders stay the course. The price dropped to these levels after weeks of weakening demand, heavy long-term holder sell-offs, and persistent outflows from spot Bitcoin ETFs. More than 815,000 BTC — nearly $79 billion — were sold by long-term holders in 30 days, while ETFs saw hundreds of millions in daily outflows, draining liquidity at the worst moment. Futures funding have turned negative, roughly $550 million in positions have been liquidated as of November 13, and options traders rushed to buy protective puts ahead of a $4 billion expiry, reinforcing bearish momentum. Macro pressure is adding fuel: tech stocks are sliding, key U.S. economic data is delayed, and uncertainty around the Federal Reserve’s rate path is elevating risk aversion. Bitcoin has broken major technical supports, including its 200-day moving average and key Fibonacci levels, with analysts warning that a decisive drop below $97,000 could open the path toward $92,000–$74,000. According to Bitcoin Magazine Pro data, the last time Bitcoin price was near these levels (sub $94,000) was in early May. Bitcoin price: Who is selling Bitcoin? One possible reason why the bitcoin price is dropping is long-term holders unloading at record levels. Data from CryptoQuant shows they’ve sold about 815,000 BTC in 30 days — the most since early 2024 — while spot and ETF demand weaken. Institutional buying has also dropped below daily mining supply, intensifying sell pressure. Prices hover near the crucial 365-day moving average around $102,000, and failure to rebound could trigger deeper losses, according to Bitcoin Magazine Pro analysis. Analysts at Bitfinex say the current bitcoin pullback mirrors past mid-cycle retracements, with the drop from October’s high matching the typical 22% drawdown seen throughout the 2023–2025 bull market. “It is important to note too, that even at the $100,000 level, approximately 72 percent of the total BTC supply remains in profit,” Bitfinex analysts wrote to Bitcoin Magazine yesterday. They believe a short relief rally is likely but that a sustained recovery will require fresh demand. According to The Block, JPMorgan analysts say bitcoin price’s current estimated production cost of $94,000 acts as a historical price floor, suggesting the bitcoin price is near the bottom now. The analysts believe that rising network difficulty has pushed production costs higher, keeping bitcoin’s price-to-cost ratio near historical lows. The analysts maintain a bold 6–12 month upside projection of about $170,000. Large bitcoin price swings aren’t driven by small retail investors—they’re driven by whales, institutions, and leveraged market structures. Whale wallets holding thousands of BTC can move more volume than entire exchanges, and even a single transfer can shift sentiment in low-liquidity conditions. Meanwhile, ETF flows, hedge funds, and corporate treasuries now dominate daily market direction, with billions in inflows or outflows dictating whether Bitcoin rallies or plunges. All this comes as the U.S. government has reopened after a record 43-day shutdown, the longest in history, following President Trump’s signing of a funding bill late Wednesday. Under the bill Trump signed Wednesday night, funding for most federal agencies will run out at midnight on Jan. 30. While federal operations are resuming, recovery will be slow. At the time of writing, Bitcoin’s price is $94,470. This post Bitcoin Price Crashes to $94,000 and New Six-Month Lows first appeared on Bitcoin Magazine and is written by Micah Zimmerman.

Each token mirrors a specific equity or treasury asset, offering transparent, verifiable, and programmable exposure to leading global companies. “Tokenized equities are redefining how traditional markets interact with blockchain technology,” said Emily Bao, Head of Spot at Bybit. “Bybit is proud to support Mantle’s vision of creating a unified, scalable platform where real-world assets can thrive onchain, delivering accessible and innovative financial solutions to a global audience.” Building the Infrastructure for Onchain Capital Markets This integration marks a major milestone for Mantle, Ethereum’s largest ZK proof-powered L2 network. Combining a modular architecture, advanced data availability layer, and low-fee environment, Mantle enables secure, scalable and cost-efficient access to tokenized equities, seamlessly converging TradFi, CeFi and DeFi within a unified onchain framework. On Mantle, tokenized equities are more than digital representations, they become programmable financial primitives. Builders and developers can leverage these assets to design innovative instruments, integrate real-world and crypto assets into automated strategies, and optimize capital efficiency across ecosystems. “With Mantle’s modular architecture, premium technology stack, and Ethereum-grade security, combined with Bybit’s infrastructure and reach, tokenized equities are set to become a foundational building block for the next wave of onchain finance,” said Emily Bao, Key Advisor at Mantle. “xStocks represents a pivotal step in turning traditional assets into composable building blocks that scale across Mantle’s ecosystem and power the decentralized economy.” “It takes more than tokenization to bridge TradFi and DeFi; you need infrastructure and distribution,” added David Henderson, Head of Growth at Backed. “Beyond accessibility, xStocks are built for composability. Together with Mantle and Bybit, we’re building the onchain economy to not only absorb capital markets but improve them.” Driving Mantle’s Broader RWA Momentum This collaboration builds on Bybit’s continued support for Mantle’s expanding RWA ecosystem, following recent initiatives such as: Anchorage integration, providing institutional-grade custody for $MNT to expand global access. Moomoo Exchange listing, bringing $MNT to U.S. retail investors alongside stocks, ETFs, and crypto. Tokenization-as-a-Service (TaaS), offering institutions a compliant, end-to-end framework to tokenize and scale real-world assets on Mantle. RWA Hackathons & Scholarships launch, fostering innovation and empowering talent pipelines to accelerate compliant tokenization and institutional adoption. Advancing Mantle’s Vision for Tokenized Markets As Mantle continues building the premier liquidity and distribution layer for tokenized assets, this initiative aligns with Mantle’s broader roadmap to expand RWA integrations, unlocking new capital efficiencies and composable DeFi strategies across its ecosystem. The collaboration reinforces Mantle’s commitment to enabling open, secure, and scalable access to tokenized assets, paving the way for broader participation in the trillion-dollar global capital markets through blockchain technology. xStocks are not available in the U.S. or to U.S. citizens.
