Despite Ethereum's brutal weekend slide, experts believe that the current levels offer rare accumulation opportunities.

Following the devastating turn of events during the weekend, market experts say that Ethereum (ETH) appears to be “in the middle of nowhere.” The leading altcoin must claim a crucial level, failing which may push the asset back toward $2,800. Ethereum at a Crossroads Ethereum suffered a major drop over the weekend as its price briefly dived below the $3,050 level. The crypto asset has been on a steady decline since November 14, followed by several failed attempts to recover. Selling pressure increased through the weekend, which pushed ETH to its lowest point of the week before a slight rebound toward $3,190 on Monday. As the downturn deepens, crypto analyst ‘Daan Crypto Trades’ stated that ETH is still holding the 0.618 Fibonacci retracement zone after sweeping its November 4 low. He said the asset currently sits “in the middle of nowhere,” and it needs to break above roughly $3,650 to improve its outlook. However, if the current region fails, he warned that the $2,800 level could become a major support-resistance area in this cycle. Pain May Be Short-Lived? While short-term signals look shaky, Tom Lee said in his latest post that Ethereum is now entering the same kind of “supercycle” that Bitcoin experienced over the past eight years. Lee, who happens to be chairman of the leading DAT BitMine and head of research at Fundstrat Global Advisors, noted that Bitcoin underwent multiple crashes, six drops precisely of more than 50% and three of more than 75%, and yet still delivered a 100x return for those who held through the fear. Lee said that crypto prices “are discounting a massive future,” which is why any moments of doubt tend to create sharp volatility. He added that investors had to withstand several “existential moments” to benefit from Bitcoin’s long-term supercycle. Applying this idea to Ethereum, he said the asset is beginning a similar long-term growth phase, even though its recent struggles show the path higher won’t be a straight line. MN Capital founder Michaël van de Poppe also reaffirmed his bullish outlook on Ethereum, saying the asset’s 30% correction against Bitcoin has created an “ideal zone for accumulation.” He added that ETH has held steady over the past few weeks despite BTC experiencing its worst week of 2025. Van de Poppe also went on to say that he doesn’t expect Ethereum to remain at current price levels for long, meaning that a potential rebound may be ahead.

Ethereum treasury firm BitMine Immersion Technologies keeps adding to its stash, grabbing another $170 million worth of ETH last week.

Bitmine Immersion Technologies has disclosed 3.6 million ethereum ( ETH) in its treasury as part of a broader $11.8 billion holdings update tied to its November chairman’s message. Bitmine Shares November Update Bitmine Immersion Technologies said its crypto, cash...

BlackRock has sparked curiosity with its steady offloading of Bitcoin and Ethereum after its latest deposit of 4,880 BTC and 54,730 ETH.

Ethereum treasury firm BitMine Immersion Technologies keeps adding to its stash, grabbing another $170 million worth of ETH last week.

Two of the largest corporate players in cryptocurrency, MicroStrategy and BitMine, have just escalated a quiet accumulation war. One is doubling down on Bitcoin, the other is expanding its grip on Ethereum. While each move looked routine at first glance, the scale and timing reveal something far more consequential building beneath the surface. MicroStrategy Accelerates Bitcoin Buying as Pressure Mounts MicroStrategy snapped up 8,178 BTC last week for roughly $835.6 million at an average price of $102,171 per coin. The firm now holds 649,870 BTC, acquired for $48.37 billion at an average cost basis of $74,433, according to a confirmed update shared by Michael Saylor and Strategy Inc. Strategy has acquired 8,178 BTC for ~$835.6 million at ~$102,171 per bitcoin and has achieved BTC Yield of 27.8% YTD 2025. As of 11/16/2025, we hodl 649,870 $BTC acquired for ~$48.37 billion at ~$74,433 per bitcoin. $MSTR $STRC $STRD $STRE $STRF $STRK https://t.co/HI1TeYOvQ9— Michael Saylor (@saylor) November 17, 2025 The aggressive move comes just days after Saylor promised that the market would be pleasantly surprised. “We’re buying quite a lot… people will be pleasantly surprised.” He added that Strategy is “always buying” and now controls 3.1% of the Bitcoin network. While MicroStrategy’s BTC yield for 2025 stands at 27.8%, the purchase sparked an immediate wave of commentary and controversy. Lookonchain verified that the company sits on $12.88 billion in unrealized profit (+27%), even after the latest dip. But the crypto community remains split. On one side, analysts argue that MicroStrategy’s structure is sound. “Even if BTC drops -70%, Saylor still won’t have to sell… There’s no margin call,” analyst Miles Deutscher noted. Jeff Dorman added that concerns about forced selling are “not even remotely a concern,” citing low interest expense, positive cash flow, and Saylor’s 42% ownership, which prevents activist intervention. On the other hand, critics like goldbug Peter Schiff argue that the strategy is fragile, with Dom Kwok, a popular user on X, echoing the sentiment. “MSTR will be forced to sell its BTC to make interest payments… it’s sell bitcoin or bust,” he claimed. Even market watchers questioned the rollout. Analyst AB Kuai Dong highlighted that Strategy posted, then deleted, its announcement within minutes, calling it “amateurish,” and noting that MSTR fell 3% in pre-market despite the bullish purchase. BitMine’s Ethereum Grab Signals a Corporate Race for Treasury Dominance As MicroStrategy expands its Bitcoin empire, Tom Lee’s BitMine is executing a parallel strategy on Ethereum, but at an even larger scale. BitMine now holds almost 3.6 million ETH tokens, representing 2.9% of the total supply, according to its official November update. The firm purchased 54,156 ETH in a single week. 淋 BitMine provided its latest holdings update for Nov 17th, 2025: $11.8 billion in total crypto + "moonshots":-3,,559,879 ETH at $3,120 per ETH (Bloomberg)– 192 Bitcoin (BTC)– $37 million stake in Eightco Holdings (NASDAQ: ORBS) (“moonshots”) and– unencumbered cash of…— Bitmine (NYSE-BMNR) $ETH (@BitMNR) November 17, 2025 At current valuations, the company holds $11.8 billion in a combined mix of crypto, cash, and “moonshot” investments, including 3,559,879 ETH, 192 BTC, $607 million in cash, and strategic equity positions. Fundstrat data, corroborated by the StrategicETHReserve.xyz dashboard, confirms BitMine is now the leading Ethereum treasury globally and the second crypto treasury overall, behind MicroStrategy. Corporate ETH Reserves. Source: StrategicETHReserve.xyz In his November message, Lee argued that the crypto cycle peak is still 12–36 months away, breaking from traditional four-year expectations. He said the recent weakness reflects a market maker undergoing balance sheet stress, a temporary form of “QT” for the crypto ecosystem. “Crypto prices have not recovered since the liquidation event on October 10… The lingering weakness has the hallmarks of a market maker suffering from a crippled balance sheet,” read an excerpt in the announcement, citing Lee. He added that tokenization on Ethereum is a “major unlock” and compared current regulatory moves, such as the GENIUS Act and the SEC’s Project Crypto, to 1971’s end of the Bretton Woods era. BitMine’s stock reflects rising institutional attention, with trading volume of $1.4 billion per day, ranking 48th in the US, ahead of DoorDash. Together, MicroStrategy’s BTC build and BitMine’s ETH accumulation mark the clearest trend of 2025, that crypto is becoming a battlefield for corporate treasuries. With Saylor targeting deeper Bitcoin control and BitMine pushing toward the “Alchemy of 5%,” the market may be entering its first true multi-chain corporate accumulation era, one driven not by retail cycles, but by balance sheets, liquidity channels, and long-duration conviction.

At Ethereum Cypherpunk Congress 2 on November 16, 2025, Vitalik Buterin used his keynote “Kohaku: Wallet Privacy On Ethereum” to deliver a sharp verdict on the state of Ethereum privacy: the cryptography works, but the user experience is failing. He began by reminding the audience that Ethereum has spent a decade investing in privacy and security infrastructure. He pointed to the elliptic-curve precompiles added in 2018—“EC-add, EC-mul, EC-pairing”—as the foundation for protocols such as Tornado Cash and Railgun, and cited the Privacy & Scaling Explorations team’s work on zkSNARK protocols, developer tooling and application-layer experiments. On the security side, he called the 2016 DAO hack an event that “really catalyzed the ecosystem,” leading to stronger auditing, teams like SEAL, safer Solidity and Vyper, and multisig wallets that were “mostly a dream back in 2015” but are “very mainstream today.” Vitalik Pushes Ethereum Toward True Wallet Privacy Despite that progress, Buterin argued that everyday users still struggle to access meaningful privacy and safety. “On real-world privacy and security delivered to users, we’re still behind where we could be,” he said. “And that is the thing that could change, and that is the thing that this year can change.” Technically, he insisted, the core privacy stack is mature. “The base layer technology, it’s all great. You can generate a proof within less than one second on a laptop, two seconds on a phone. It’s easy to develop. It’s very well understood. There’s a lot of well-tested circuits.” The breakdown happens at the wallet layer. “Using a privacy protocol requires a separate seed phrase. There’s no multi-sig option. So, if you have your coins in a private pool, your coins have to be controlled by one single key,” he explained. Users generally must open a separate privacy wallet, and “it takes like five clicks to do a private send and withdraw.” Even the infrastructure for broadcasting transactions is fragile. “Last week, I had to fight against public broadcasters. It took about ten tries until eventually I figured out that it works after you turn on a VPN.” “We’re in this very last mile stage,” he concluded. “It’s exactly at that last mile stage where we need to put a lot of really concerted effort into doing better.” Buterin framed Kohaku within a broader defense of privacy that he developed in an April essay. On stage he summarized it in three lines: “Privacy is freedom… Privacy is order… And privacy is progress.” Privacy, he said, “gives us space to live our lives in the ways that meet our needs,” underpins basic social mechanisms that assume not everyone sees everything, and is essential for using data in fields like medicine and science without creating “a dystopian nightmare.” With modern cryptography, “it can be designed to be privacy first.” For users, “privacy is not an abstraction. It is a concrete benefit to users. We can show that we have now.” Security, in his view, is similarly dominated by tail risk. Referencing a meme, he contrasted DeFi yields with catastrophic loss. Put assets into DeFi and “you get some APY.” Do nothing and “you get 0% APY.” But if you lose your private keys, your APY is “minus 100.” The same applies “if Lazarus discovers your private keys” or “if the wrong people discover how much money you have, who you donate to, and where you live.” Buterin argued that Ethereum’s privacy conversation has focused too narrowly on “what can you ZK-proof on-chain.” He expanded the scope to UX (making it easy to keep wallet identities separate), privacy of reads (via better RPCs, “E3T, E+ORAM,” or “the really cryptographically pure approach, PIR”), network-level privacy through mixnets, and non-financial operations that also need protection. On security, he called for “risk-based access control”: “You should have to press more buttons and get more authorization to move $100,000 than to move $10.” He emphasized account recovery, UI-level security, and “on-chain version control… of software dependencies and of UIs,” arguing “we should have a world where UIs live on-chain” so attackers cannot silently swap front-ends by hacking a server. Today during @web3privacy, maestro @VitalikButerin highlighted #Kohaku, a new Ethereum framework focused on bringing real privacy to wallets. $eth All 8mins here: pic.twitter.com/W9qeUZcipR — Tommy B. (@realtommybibi) November 16, 2025 Summing up Ethereum in 2025, Buterin said it has “strong security and privacy research,” “strong security on the L1,” and privacy tooling that has “improved by miles” since “the very first version of Zcash” where “it took two minutes to sign a transaction.” What remains, he insisted, is to “level up the last mile,” especially “the application and wallet layer, the parts of this whole problem that are closest to the user.” Kohaku was announced on October 9 by the Ethereum Foundation via X: “The Ethereum Foundation is proud to build Kohaku, a set of primitives that enables wallets to be secure and to process private transactions while minimizing dependencies on trusted third parties. Privacy is normal. Privacy is for everyone.” At press time, ETH traded at $3,194.

Crypto majors were mostly flat over the weekend after Bitcoin briefly dipped below $94,000 before recovering to $95,400. ETH gained 1% to trade near $3,180, BNB remained steady at $930, and SOL rose 2% to $142. Among top movers, UNI, IMX, and ENA each climbed about 4%. ZEC also briefly bounced above $700 on Sunday after Cobie commented on the fundamentals behind its recent rally. Market sentiment stayed deeply negative, with the Crypto Fear & Greed Index holding in Extreme Fear at 14 after touching 10 on Friday. On the macro side, JPMorgan identified roughly $94,000 as a key Bitcoin support level based on mining costs and projected potential upside toward $170,000. Institutional activity also made headlines, as Harvard reportedly added about $350 million of Bitcoin through IBIT in Q3—an increase of 257% from its June filing—while BlackRock’s BUIDL fund expanded to Binance and BNB.

[PRESS RELEASE – Fort Worth, Texas, USA, November 17th, 2025] HyperPlay Labs Inc., a leader in crypto, software distribution, and wallet innovation, will this week announce the launch of CoinFello at DevConnect in Buenos Aires, Argentina. CoinFello is the world’s first AI agentic app for using and automating any smart contract protocol. CoinFello provides users with a simple chat interface that can understand on-chain context, execute user intents, and automate smart contract interactions, all in plain language. CoinFello combines the user’s wallet with a user agent that anticipates user needs to make crypto easy, fun, and safe, making way for mainstream users to onboard into DeFi. Built on both EigenCloud and the MetaMask Smart Accounts Kit, developed by Consensys, CoinFello ensures that users remain in full custody of their funds while interacting with CoinFello’s advanced AI LLM. CoinFello receives a delegation from the user’s existing MetaMask wallet (or can create a new MetaMask wallet directly within the CoinFello app). CoinFello enables MetaMask users to leverage an intuitive, intent-based system, solving many of the greatest user experience problems preventing the mainstream adoption of crypto, such as discovery of DeFi protocols that best meet a user’s needs, abstracting away the complexities of dealing with gas, explaining what smart contracts do in plain language, and automating cross-chain transactions. For example, CoinFello users can prevent liquidations by asking their assistant to automatically reallocate funds in case of black swan events, such as those seen in October 2025, where $1.7B+ worth of liquidations happened on Ethereum and EVM-compatible networks alone. “Self-sovereign AI solves many of the fundamental user experience problems for interacting with dApps and DeFi protocols,” said jacobc.eth, Founder and CEO of CoinFello and previous Lead of Operations at MetaMask. “CoinFello represents the first time that self-custodial DeFi can be truly accessible to mainstream audiences. We’ve created a user agent that can protect user funds, solve protocol discoverability, and simplify UX. We’re aiming to minimize risks while maximizing accessibility.” Also describing the partnership, Sreeram Kannan, Founder of EigenCloud and CEO of Eigen Labs, said, “We are excited to partner with the CoinFello team to deliver verifiable, deterministic, and self-sovereign AI for crypto users. This partnership ensures that users have AI agents they fully control, using the model the user signed up for, and with reliable and repeatable outputs that protect users against non-attributable manipulation in agents.” At every layer of the crypto experience, CoinFello works to make things easier. CoinFello users can complete complex transactions without ever navigating to a website-based dapp. Instead, users tell their agent what they’d like to execute, and the agent interfaces with the relevant smart contracts directly on the user’s behalf. CoinFello presents users with the smart contract interaction (or automation) for approval ahead of executing it. CoinFello is the first solution that is both fully self-sovereign and supports any smart contract interaction on any EVM chain. With a context-aware conversational AI interface, users can simply say, “Sell my meme coins to buy more ETH,” or “use the liquidity in my wallet to ensure my loan positions are not liquidated during market fluctuations,” and the application handles the rest, presenting the user with an overview of the action to be taken first. CoinFello abstracts away complexities like gas fees, chain selection, token swapping, and bridging, making smart contract interactions simple. “We’re excited to be working with the CoinFello team as they bring agentic experiences to life with the MetaMask Smart Accounts Kit.” said Ryan McPeck Product Lead at Consensys for the MetaMask Smart Accounts Kit. “Together we imagine a future where AI agents can act safely on behalf of users through fine-grained and transitive permissions, empowering people to express exactly what they want to see happen on-chain.” CoinFello is available now in a private alpha testing cohort, with a public release slated for Q1 2026.

ChainCatcher 消息，过去 24 小时加密货币市场全网合约爆仓 7.89 亿美元，其中多单爆仓 4.44 亿美元，空单爆仓 3.45 亿美元。BTC 爆仓总金额 3.43 亿美元，ETH 爆仓总金额 1.87 亿美元。

Quick Facts: Ethereum rebounded above $3,100 after a sharp breakdown, even as Bitcoin slid to the low $93K region and sentiment hit extreme fear. Arthur Hayes’ $4.1M sell-off and a dormant $ETH whale reawakening highlight how large players are reshuffling risk during this volatility spike. Maxi Doge blends leverage-trader culture with staking, contests and planned futures-platform integrations, aiming to stand out from pure joke tokens and become one of the market’s best meme coins. From current presale levels, upside scenarios rely on solid execution, exchange listings and a broader recovery in risk appetite across crypto. Ethereum ($ETH) managed to claw back above $3.1K on November 16 after briefly slipping below that level for the first time since November 4. The bounce came in the middle of a brutal risk-off move across crypto, with Bitcoin tagging the low $93K area and pushing the Fear & Greed Index down to extreme-fear territory at 17. At the same time, one of the market’s most watched whales hit the sell button. BitMEX co-founder Arthur Hayes liquidated roughly $4.1M in crypto assets, including 700 $ETH, along with large clips of $ENA, $LDO, $AAVE, and $UNI. Meanwhile, a dormant Ethereum wallet woke up after more than a decade, moving 200 $ETH. Put together, that is a pretty wild mix of signals. Long-term holders are rotating, a well-known trader is de-risking into weakness, and yet $ETH still defended a key support zone within hours. For anyone who has lived through a few cycles, this is classic late-stage volatility: leverage getting wiped, while spot buyers quietly hunt value. In that type of environment, some traders rotate out of majors and into higher beta plays once the dust starts to settle. For meme coin enthusiasts, that usually means scanning for fresh narratives and early-stage presales with asymmetric upside. One of the names now popping up more often in that conversation is Maxi Doge ($MAXI), a Doge-inspired meme coin whose presale has already raised more than $4M at a token price of $0.0002685. Maxi Doge Leans Into Leverage Culture While Adding Utility Maxi Doge takes the familiar Shiba Inu meme and dials it to eleven. The branding is all about the over-caffeinated trader on 1000x leverage: ripped Doge, Red Bull references, and a ‘wake up, sweat, trade, repeat’ storyline that fits the degen mood surprisingly well. Underneath the memes lies a basic utility layer. The $MAXI token lives on Ethereum and is designed around three core hooks: staking, contests, and partner events. As a token holder, you can stake your tokens in a dedicated pool, where rewards are distributed by a smart contract, with current advertised staking yields of 76% annually. The project also plans $MAXI-denominated trading contests aimed at ‘top ROI hunters’, plus community events tied to futures-platform integrations and gamified tournaments. A dedicated ‘Maxi Fund’ holding 25% of tokens is earmarked to support these partnerships and market-making, while 40% goes to marketing, 15% to development, 15% to liquidity, and 5% to the staking pool. To get a full lowdown on the project, be sure to read ‘What is Maxi Doge?’ Security and infrastructure are handled in a fairly standard way for this segment. The $MAXI smart contract has been audited by third-party firms, including Coinsult, and the presale is routed through Web3-native tooling and integrated into multi-chain wallets like Best Wallet. In a market where Ethereum’s volatility is forcing traders to think harder about where they deploy risk, a meme coin that openly represents leverage culture while offering staking and planned integrations is on-brand for degen participants. Presale Numbers Hint At Upside If Sentiment Turns The Maxi Doge presale kicked off in July and uses a tiered pricing model where each stage nudges the token price higher. It has raised over $4M so far, with $MAXI currently available for $0.0002685 per token and a hard cap set near $15.76M. Want to grab your share of $MAXI tokens? Check out our comprehensive Maxi Doge buying guide. If you’re a trader hunting the best meme coins in a down-only week, that structure matters. It means you can secure tokens at a steep discount if you get in early, while the rising price ladder creates a built-in FOMO effect if demand keeps building. On top of that, staking is live during the presale, so you can start compounding rewards rather than waiting for a distant TGE. Where things get interesting is on the forward-looking side. Based on our Maxi Doge price prediction, $MAXI has the potential to reach a high of $0.0058 by the end of 2026, assuming a successful Uniswap debut, follow-through listings, and a supportive broader market. Still, the setup is straightforward. Ethereum just showed it can bounce even as a high-profile whale dumps and dormant wallets wake up. Bitcoin has flushed excessive leverage, and sentiment is at extremes. If risk appetite rotates back into high-beta assets, a meme coin presale that already has traction, staking yield, and a clear cultural pitch will likely sit on many watchlists. Join the Maxi Doge presale today. Disclaimer: This article is informational only and not financial advice; crypto assets are highly volatile, and you should never invest more than you can lose.

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.

Ethereum ETH may be entering a growth phase similar to the one Bitcoin BTC experienced years ago, according to Tom Lee, the executive chair of BitMine.

Ethereum’s price continues to witness heightened volatility due to the bearish conditions of the broader cryptocurrency market, causing the altcoin’s value to drop to the $3,000 mark, a level not seen in months. While ETH’s price has fallen sharply, the network’s real economy has displayed significant growth faster than ETH’s market value. ETH Market Slow, But Real Economy Is Expanding The growth of Ethereum’s on-chain economy is significantly faster than the movement of its native asset price. Overall, the Ethereum network has quietly entered a phase of significant real-world growth, as evidenced by soaring transaction revenues, surging stablecoin settlement volumes, and an accelerating ecosystem of decentralized apps. This growing disparity between price and real economy was shared by Milk Road, a market expert on the social media platform X (formerly Twitter). According to the market expert, the real economy of the underlying network has experienced a 3x growth faster than the price of ETH. Data shared by Milk Road shows that the supply of stablecoins available on the Ethereum blockchain is up by 65.5x. Such a substantial growth implies that money only moves where activity is taking place, which is the clearest signal of actual demand in the broader crypto sector. Meanwhile, Milk Road highlighted that ETH’s fully diluted market cap has increased by 21.6x over the same period. The discrepancy between Ethereum’s core economic activity and its market value raises the possibility that investors are underestimating the network’s actual strength, which might lead to a realignment. What this means is that the blockchain’s economic engine scaled far beyond its valuation for nearly 5 years. However, the expert noted that the difference between the supply of stablecoins and the completely diluted market cap won’t remain this large indefinitely if price ultimately catches up to activity, as it always does. Fundamentals Remain Strong Amid Ethereum’s Weak Sentiment Ethereum is still showcasing on-chain strength, hitting new milestones even in the ongoing market volatility. Leon Waidmann, the head of research at On-chain Foundation, disclosed that while prices are down, the blockchain-powered dollar economy recently reached a new all-time high. For the first time ever, the overall value of all stablecoins that are secured on-chain pushed past $300 billion. Meanwhile, ETH layer 1 singlehandedly accumulates over $170 billion of the total supply, reflecting its growing adoption and rising dominance. Overall, sentiment around ETH, particularly towards its price action, may be weak, but its fundamentals remain robust. In another X post, Waidmann stated that crypto players continue to declare that ETH is dead, while the blockchain keeps acting in the opposite direction. The network’s block space usage has been climbing nearly nonstop for the past 10 years. Presently, the blockspace consumption has hit a new all-time high in 2025. According to Waidmann, this is beyond mere hype; it is driven by real economic activity settling on a global trust layer like Ethereum, as evidenced by the continuous growth of its fundamentals.

The global crypto market pulled back to about $3.23 trillion on Monday, down close to a percent from recent levels, and signs of weakness were visible across most top tokens. According to market trackers, investor mood is chilled — the Fear and Greed Index sits at 18, labeled extreme fear — and the average Relative Strength Index for major coins hovers near 41, a reading that leans toward oversold conditions. Bitcoin was trading around $95,400 while Ethereum hovered near $3,155, with many large-cap assets showing only small daily moves. Tom Lee Issues Long-Term Take According to Tom Lee, BitMine chairman and an early Bitcoin bull at Fundstrat, the current pullback does not wipe out the potential for much larger gains down the road. Lee noted that Bitcoin rose roughly 100x from his first recommendation back in 2017, when the price was near $1,000, and he suggested Ethereum may be at the start of a similar long-term run.

That gap left Ether lagging for months even as Bitcoin made fresh highs. Now, with ETH nearer to where long-term holders bought in, some analysts see a potential floor forming. Reports have disclosed that these accumulators have been “patiently stacking,” and their cost positions matter for near-term price action. Altcoins Show Little Momentum Smaller large-cap coins are holding weaker ground. XRP was trading near $2.20, BNB around $932 and Solana close to $138, with most of last week’s gains fading. Other popular tokens — Tron, Dogecoin, Cardano, Chainlink, Hyperliquid and Zcash — are under light selling pressure and low net movement, suggesting market-wide caution rather than a single-asset sell-off. Bigger Players, Liquidations And The Outlook Lee added that he expects signs of recovery and stability within six to eight weeks. He advised against using borrowed funds now, warning that forced sell-offs can accelerate losses. According to his remarks, aggressive positions designed to trigger liquidations by large firms can amplify price swings. He cautioned that some of the sharper moves may be tied to stress among big market makers. Featured image from Unsplash, chart from TradingView

Bitcoin 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”...

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.

Infura, a blockchain infrastructure firm owned by Consensys, is expanding its API data marketplace, the Decentralized Infrastructure Network (DIN), to run on EigenLayer, a protocol that lets Ethereum stakers reuse their staked ETH to secure external services.In a press release shared with The Defiant, Infura said this marks the first large-scale RPC and API marketplace to run as an EigenLayer Autonomous Verifiable Service. That means the service is now backed by stakers who can earn rewards if it performs well, or lose part of their stake if it fails, encouraging operators to stay online.E.G. Galano, co-founder of Infura, said that using EigenLayer allows the team to realize its vision on a “proven restaking standard backed by the strongest asset in crypto: restaked ETH.”To continue reading this as well as other DeFi and Web3 news, visit us at thedefiant.io

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 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. Solana and XRP recorded smaller pullbacks of $8.3 million and $15.5 million.Despite the broader risk-off sentiment, multi-asset investment products attracted $69 million in inflows over the past three weeks as investors sought diversification.Short-Bitcoin ETPs also saw renewed interest as traders positioned defensively amid the ongoing correction.

Bitcoin’s adverse price movements continued on Sunday as the asset dived once again to a fresh six-month low of $93,000 before it staged a minor recovery. Most altcoins are in the red today, with ETH sliding to $3,200, while XMR, LTC, ICP, NEAR, and a few others have posted notable price losses. BTC Rebounds From $93K It was just a week ago when positive developments coming from the US drove the primary cryptocurrency to just over $107,000. However, that rally from $104,000 was short-lived, and the subsequent correction has been quite painful. At first, BTC returned to $102,000, it bounced off briefly, but headed further south as the business week progressed. Friday saw the most significant price decline when the cryptocurrency plummeted to $94,000 for the first time since May. The bulls finally intercepted the move and pushed the asset to almost $97,000 on Sunday. Sideways trading followed for most of the weekend, until Sunday afternoon. At the time, BTC’s landscape worsened once again and dipped to another six-month low of $93,000. It has recovered a few grand since then and now sits close to $96,000. However, market observers are adamant that the overall BTC structure has changed, and it has entered a new type of bear market. For now, though, its market cap remains just inches above $1.9 trillion on CG, while its dominance over the alts settled at 57.2%. BTCUSD. Source: TradingView Alts Bleed Ethereum also fell hard yesterday, dumping below $3,100 for the second time in just a few days. Despite bouncing to $3,200 now, ETH is still 1% down on a 24-hour scale. BNB, SOL, TRX, DOGE, ADA, BCH, and LINK have marked similar losses. HYPE and ZEC are down by over 3%, while XMR, LTC, TAO, NEAR, PUMP, and ICP have charted price declines of up to 9%. There are a few altcoins in the green, but with very modest gains, such as UNI and ENA.

Ethereum (ETH) is priced at $3,200 at press time, showing a small 24-hour drop and a 7-day loss of 11%. Attention is now on a key technical level near $2,875. Market participants are watching to see if ETH can hold above this point or move lower into support zones highlighted by traders. $2,875 Stands as a Crucial Level Trader Crypto Patel has pointed to $2,875 as a key zone for Ethereum. He described it as a “make-or-break level,” noting that if bulls defend it, the path to $5,000 may open. The $2,875 level also matches the 0.382 Fibonacci area and sits near an unfilled Fair Value Gap (FVG), which has not yet been tested on the way up. #ETH $2,875 FVG is the Make-or-Break level. If bulls HOLD this → Next leg to $5K+ begins If NOT… the $2,250–$2,620 OB becomes the dream accumulation zone before ETHEREUM sends to new ATH Toward $8K-$10K pic.twitter.com/TnfR3Eq5bK — Crypto Patel (@CryptoPatel) November 17, 2025 If ETH drops below this level, focus may shift to the range between $2,250 and $2,620. Patel identified this zone as a Bullish Order Block (OB), which includes the 0.5 to 0.618 Fibonacci retracement. He called it a “dream accumulation zone,” where long-term buyers might re-enter before a possible move toward $8,000–$10,000. Current Support Around $3,100–$3,200 ETH is now trading inside a zone that has held up multiple times. Analyst Cipher X noted that the $3,100–$3,200 area has been defended by buyers in previous sessions. “As long as this area holds the structure remains intact,” they said. A move above $3,500 could set up a push toward the $4,200 to $4,500 range. Daan Crypto Trades observed that ETH remains around the 0.618 Fibonacci retracement but isn’t near a clear support or resistance. “Pretty much in the middle of nowhere,” he said, adding that price would start to look stronger above $3,650. He also pointed to $2,800 as a major level to watch if the current zone breaks. Moreover, trader Ted reported that ETH retested the $3,000 level and bounced. He said that a reclaim of $3,500 would give bulls some control. However, a failed retest could drag the price below $3,000 again. As previously reported, ETH is also testing the 50-week EMA around $3,200–$3,500, a level that was resistance for over a year. It is now being tested from the other side. Market Activity and Institutional Interest Ethereum’s fundamentals remain active. Vitalik Buterin shared a new “Trustless Manifesto,” calling for more decentralization and self-custody across the network. In corporate activity, SharpLink Gaming posted a 1,100% year-over-year revenue increase, helped by its Ethereum holdings. On the trading side, Arthur Hayes sold 1,480 ETH for $4.7 million over the past two days. Still, observers noted that “it’s not possible to say that Hayes is always accurate,” referencing a previous low sell that was followed by a buyback at a higher price.

Technically, bitcoin’s break below the monthly mid-range at $100,266 cleared a key liquidity shelf, exposing a fast-track slide into thinner regions. Near-term support sits at $93,000 to $95,000.

Ether may be entering the early stages of the type of explosive growth cycle that propelled Bitcoin to a 100x rally since 2017, according to Tom Lee, executive chair of Ether-focused treasury firm BitMine. Key Takeaways: Tom Lee says Ether may be entering a “Supercycle” similar to Bitcoin’s 100x rally that began in 2017. ETH is approaching the average cost basis of long-term holders, a level historically linked to strong accumulation. Long-term wallets now hold 27 million ETH, signaling growing conviction despite the recent market pullback. In an X post on Sunday, Lee said the current Ether market resembles Bitcoin’s setup eight years ago, a period marked by deep volatility that ultimately preceded one of the strongest bull cycles in crypto history.Tom Lee: Bitcoin’s 100x Run Began With a $1,000 Call in 2017Lee noted that his firm first recommended Bitcoin to Fundstrat clients in 2017 when BTC traded near $1,000.Since then, Bitcoin suffered several drawdowns of up to 75%, yet still surged more than 100-fold from that initial call.“We believe ETH is embarking on that same Supercycle,” he wrote, arguing that Ether’s recent weakness reflects doubt, not deterioration.“To have gained from that 100x Supercycle, one had to stomach existential moments to HODL.”ETH has trailed Bitcoin for much of 2025, even as the market reached new record highs. Ether notched its all-time high of $4,946 in August, while Bitcoin topped out above $126,000 in October.Both assets have since pulled back sharply, with BTC down 25% from its peak and ETH sliding more than 35%. Lee framed the retreat as part of the “discounting of a massive future.” Bitcoin is a volatile asset. We first recommended Bitcoin to Fundstrat clients in 2017 (1%-2% allocation)– Bitcoin 2017 ~$1,000Since then (past 8.5 years), $BTC:– 6 declines > -50%– 3 declines > – 75%2025, Bitcoin 100x from our first recommendation TAKEAWAY: To have… pic.twitter.com/xtIRGLdnWM— Thomas (Tom) Lee (not drummer) FSInsight.com (@fundstrat) November 16, 2025 On-chain data suggests Ether may be nearing a critical level for long-term holders.CryptoQuant analyst Burak Kesmeci said ETH’s current price, around $3,150, sits just $200 above the average cost basis of long-term accumulators, whom he described as investors who have been “patiently stacking.”Ether has only fallen below this level once this year, during April’s market shock triggered by President Donald Trump’s global tariff rollout.According to Kesmeci, long-term conviction in Ether is stronger than ever. Roughly 17 million ETH has moved into accumulation addresses in 2025, pushing the total balance held by long-term wallets to 27 million ETH, up from 10 million at the start of the year.If ETH slips to the $2,900 level, he said, history suggests it would represent “one of the strongest long-term accumulation opportunities.”Ether briefly touched a 24-hour low of $3,023 but has since steadied, trading flat around $3,185.Ethereum Whales Accumulate 7.6M ETH as Market Enters Compression PhaseAs repored, Ethereum whales have significantly increased their exposure as ETH hovers near $3,000, a trend analysts say has historically preceded major market reversals.CryptoQuant data shows wallets holding between 10,000 and 100,000 ETH have accumulated 7.6 million ETH since April, a 52% jump, while smaller holders continue to trim their balances.The divergence suggests institutional-sized players are positioning for a potential rebound, even as retail remains cautious.Analysts also point to repeated spikes in Ethereum’s spot trading volume since early November, a pattern commonly seen in late-stage compression phases before large price moves.Meanwhile, Ethereum network fees have plunged to some of their lowest levels in years, with gas prices dropping to 0.067 Gwei last week as onchain activity slowed following October’s market-wide crash.During the 2021 bull run, transaction costs on Ethereum’s base layer frequently exceeded $100–$150, driving users toward cheaper alternatives and layer-2 solutions.However, since the Dencun upgrade in March 2024, which optimized gas fees for layer-2 rollups, Ethereum’s fee revenue has collapsed by 99%, according to Token Terminal.The post Ether May Be Beginning Bitcoin’s 2017-Style Growth Cycle, Says BitMine’s Tom Lee appeared first on Cryptonews.

SharpLink Gaming’s Ethereum (ETH) bet appears to have paid off, as the company reported a sharp turnaround in its third-quarter 2025 results following strong treasury performance. The company’s total revenue surged to $10.8 million for the third quarter of 2025, which ended September 30. This is a 1,100% year-over-year increase from the $0.9 million reported in the same period last year. The sharp rise was primarily attributed to the strong performance of SharpLink’s ETH holdings and its strategic deployment within the Ethereum ecosystem. Q3 Results Show ETH Strategy at Core According to the official press release, net income for the quarter soared to $104.3 million, or $0.62 per fully diluted share, in a stark reversal from a net loss of $885,000 in Q3 2024. As of September 30th, the company’s crypto assets stood at $3.0 billion, including 817,747 ETH, which comprised both native and liquid staking tokens. By November 9, SharpLink’s ETH position had further grown to 861,251 ETH. The company also reported $11.1 million in cash and $26.7 million in USDC stablecoins on its balance sheet. Commenting on the financial results, the company’s co-CEO Joseph Chalom said, “SharpLink is pioneering a new model for publicly traded ETH treasury companies – one that marries the agility of an active asset manager with the transparency of a public company. Our ability to dynamically manage capital, pursue sophisticated compounding yield strategies, and partner with many of the most revered names in the Ethereum ecosystem, puts SharpLink in pole position as the Ethereum institutional supercycle accelerates.” SharpLink’s Strategic Moves On the operation side of things, SharpLink made several moves throughout the quarter to strengthen its position as a leading Ethereum treasury operator. In August, its Board of Directors approved a $1.5 billion stock repurchase program, under which 1.94 million shares were repurchased for approximately $31.6 million by quarter-end. In September, the Nasdaq-listed company partnered with Superstate to launch tokenized SBET on Ethereum. The following month, SharpLink roped in Matthew Sheffield as Chief Investment Officer, Mandy Campbell as Chief Marketing Officer, and Michael Camarda as Chief Data Officer. Around the same time, the company completed a $76.5 million registered direct offering, priced at a 12% premium to its share price and above the net asset value of its ETH treasury. SharpLink also revealed plans to deploy $200 million worth of ETH from its corporate treasury onto Linea, an Ethereum Layer 2 network developed by Consensys. The funds will be managed through Anchorage Digital Bank, its custodian, and invested across staking, restaking, and AI-driven yield strategies on Linea’s zkEVM framework. This approach is designed to generate diversified ETH-based returns by combining Ethereum staking rewards, EigenCloud restaking incentives, and Linea’s native yield programs.

Ethereum continues to trade inside a deeply compressed downtrend, with repeated rejections from lower-high resistance. While the broader structure remains bearish, signs of sell-side exhaustion and deep liquidity pockets above the price keep the door open for a relief expansion if buyers reclaim key levels. Technical Analysis By Shayan The Daily Chart Ethereum has extended its decline within a persistent descending channel, repeatedly failing to break above the 100-day and 200-day moving averages, both of which have now turned into dynamic resistance. The most recent rejection from the $3.8K supply cluster confirms the dominance of sellers in the upper half of the structure. The asset has now stabilized directly inside the $3K–$3.1K demand block. This region has historically attracted medium-term buyers and is reinforced by a visible positive divergence in the RSI, indicating a slowdown in bearish momentum. However, unless the price reclaims the $3.45K–$3.55K breaker block, the market remains vulnerable to continued pressure toward the deeper $2.6K demand zone. If a daily close returns above the broken trendline and the 200-day MA, the broader structure could shift, opening the path for a mid-trend recovery toward the $3.8K liquidity band. The 4-Hour Chart On the 4H timeframe, ETH continues to move within a sharp falling wedge. Each attempt to break higher has been rejected at the descending trendline and at the aligned $3.55K and $3.8K supply zones. These stacked supply layers have repeatedly capped upside attempts. The price is now trading close to the wedge’s lower boundary and just above the main liquidity pool spanning the $3K zone. The presence of long downside wicks indicates aggressive buyer absorption, matching the corrective nature of the wedge. If Ethereum manages to reclaim the $3.35K intraday pivot, a short-term shift toward the $3.55K region becomes likely. Failure at this midpoint would keep the falling-wedge continuation intact and sustain the probability of a retest of $3K or even a brief deviation below it before any meaningful reversal. Onchain Analysis By Shayan The two-week liquidation heatmap highlights a dense concentration of resting long liquidations overhead, especially between $3.6K and $3.9K. This bright cluster is the primary liquidity magnet for any upward expansion. Historically, Ethereum tends to gravitate toward these high-liquidity shelves when the market enters a short-term relief phase. Below the price, the liquidity is far thinner, meaning any downward continuation is likely to be sharp but short-lived, driven more by stop-runs than sustained selling. The largest imbalance sits at $3.8K–$3.9K, suggesting that if Ethereum manages to reclaim structure at $3.45K, a swift squeeze into that band becomes the most probable scenario.

The cryptocurrency market is in turmoil once again. Bitcoin led the losses on Friday with a massive nosedive to a six-month low of $94,000. Despite recovering a few grand since then, the asset is still more than 6% down weekly. ETH has slipped by 7% since last Sunday, while SOL has plunged by more than 11%. Although most other altcoins have posted weekly losses as well, there are a few exceptions. Aside from the high-flyer ZEC and a few more privacy coins, Pi Network’s native token is also 5% up since last Sunday, which is somewhat surprising given its performance since late February. The question that arises now is whether it will be able to sustain this move and even climb higher? Can PI Keep Pumping? Certain analysts believe so. As reported on Friday, a popular Pioneer claimed that PI has established a solid floor at around $0.20 and $0.22, which will help it consolidate before another leg up. They predicted that the asset might surge back to $0.29, which would represent a 75% increase from the current levels. We decided to ask around some AIs about their perspective on the matter. ChatGPT outlined the technical aspect and sort of agreed with the aforementioned prediction. It indicated that PI has formed a “higher-low pattern on lower timeframes, suggesting the start of a recovery trend if buyers manage to keep support intact at $0.20-$0.21.” The first resistance, according to OpenAI’s solution, is at $0.25, which is followed by the psychological barrier at $0.30. The latter capped PI’s rally on a few occasions in October. If broken, though, it could lead to another leg up to $0.35-$0.38, ChatGPT said. However, it admitted that this is a highly speculative scenario for the week ahead, especially in the current market conditions. As such, it also brought up a bearish scenario, in which PI loses momentum and slides below $0.20. The next major support will be at $0.18. “For now, PI remains one of the few altcoins showing relative strength amid a cautious market, with technicals favoring gradual accumulation rather than aggressive speculation,” concluded ChatGPT. Fundamentals Grok and Perplexity focused more on the fundamentals behind Pi Network, such as some of the recent updates introduced by the team. The former noted that these moves highlighted the Core Team’s efforts to strengthen the ecosystem, which should increase investor confidence. This is “something that analysts see as key for sustaining long-term value.” Perplexity believes the most likely scenario for the week ahead is a sideways consolidation between $0.21 and $0.25, but it also mentioned two more volatile options. In the bull case, PI would peak at somewhere between $0.30 and $0.35 following a big news update. In the opposite scenario, PI could dump to $0.18 in case the broader market’s pullback worsens.

As the dust starts to settle following the massive correction at the end of the business week, BTC is trying to recover some ground and stands above $96,000 for most of the weekend. Most larger-cap alts are slightly in the green today, with ETH pumping above $3,200. ZEC continues with its impressive performance, and is joined by DASH and ASTER today. BTC Consolidates at $96K The business week actually started on the right foot for BTC as the asset jumped past $106,000 on Monday and $107,000 briefly on Tuesday following positive news from the US. However, that was another fakeout, and the cryptocurrency’s price began a prolonged and painful retracement. At first, it dropped back down to $102,000, where the bulls managed to intercept the move, but that rebound didn’t last long. The actual calamity took place on Thursday and especially on Friday when the bears took complete control of the market. As a result, they initiated a few consecutive leg downs that culminated on Friday afternoon with a price dump to a six-month low of $94,000. The freefall finally stopped at this point, and bitcoin bounced off to $96,000, where it has been for almost two days. Its market cap has recovered slightly to $1.920 trillion, while its dominance over the alts has taken another hit and is down to 57.1% on CG. BTCUSD. Source: TradingView ZEC Keeps Pumping The largest privacy coin seems immune to the overall market-wide correction and has surged past $700 following another double-digit increase on a daily scale. Aside from ZEC, another alt from this cohort (DASH) has skyrocketed by roughly 16% daily and has reentered the top 100 assets by market cap. ASTER is the other double-digit gainer from the larger caps, having surged by 12% to $1.26. UNI and WLFI follow suit, with price increases of 7% and 6%, respectively. ETH, BNB, SOL, TRX, DOGE, HYPE, BCH, and LINK are also in the green. The total crypto market cap has risen by $60 billion in a few days and is up to $3.370 trillion.

Disrupting pharmacy payments with ETH, SOL, and XRP acceptance nationwide; online rollout set for Jan. 1, 2026. NEW YORK, Nov. 13, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Invictus Pharmacy, a pharmacist-founded and nationally licensed pharmacy network, announced today that it will begin accepting cryptocurrency as a form of payment from patients. This milestone makes Invictus Pharmacy the first nationwide licensed pharmacy to embrace digital assets as part of its patient payment infrastructure. Beginning immediately, cryptocurrency payments including Ethereum (ETH), Solana (SOL), and XRP (Ripple) will be accepted at all Invictus Pharmacy retail locations. Starting January 1, 2026, patients will also be able to utilize these digital payment options through the company’s online platform at InvictusPharmacy.com. Key Benefits of Invictus Pharmacy’s acceptance of cryptocurrency include: Enhanced Security: Blockchain technology provides a secure and transparent platform for all transactions, reducing the risk of fraud. Faster Transactions: Cryptocurrency transactions are typically faster than traditional payment methods, allowing for quicker processing of prescriptions. Increased Accessibility: Accepting cryptocurrency opens up access to pharmaceutical services for younger demographics who prefer or are comfortable using digital currencies. Transparency: Every transaction is recorded on the blockchain, creating a transparent and auditable trail. Pioneering Transparency in the Pharmaceutical Payment System This initiative represents the first phase of a larger technological movement led by Invictus Ventures Inc., the management company of Invictus Pharmacy. Invictus Ventures is developing a blockchain-based payment infrastructure designed specifically for the U.S. prescription drug market. The platform will facilitate instant, transparent, and auditable transactions between payers, manufacturers, pharmacies, and patients. By accepting cryptocurrency payments, Invictus Pharmacy is also embracing the next generation of American consumers who are more comfortable and familiar with digital assets and alternative payment methods. This forward-looking approach reflects Invictus’s commitment to modernizing the pharmacy experience, meeting patients where they are, and fostering financial accessibility through innovation. By leveraging the power of blockchain technology, Invictus aims to eliminate the administrative lag and opacity that define today’s pharmacy benefit model, replacing it with a real-time, programmable payment system that benefits every stakeholder in the chain. “Pharmacy Benefit Managers (PBMs) were invented before the era of the internet to combat rising drug prices in the 1970s,” said Meyer Davidoff, Founder and CEO of Invictus Pharmacy. “While their original purpose was to negotiate fair pricing and streamline reimbursements, PBMs have since evolved into powerful intermediaries that obscure true drug costs, delay payments to pharmacies, and inflate prices for patients. The system has become a labyrinth of rebates, clawbacks, and opaque contracts that benefit middlemen rather than patients or providers. Today, PBMs act as central toll collectors in a system that should be moving toward openness and modern technology. Accepting cryptocurrency is more than offering another way to pay. It is the first step toward building a faster and more transparent payment network that links patients, pharmacies, and manufacturers with far fewer barriers. This is the future of pharmacy, a system where information and payments move quickly, clearly, and efficiently for everyone.” “For our patients, using cryptocurrency will feel just as simple as paying with a smartphone or credit card,” said Alan Oustaev, Chief Operating Officer of Invictus Pharmacy. “Our goal is to make the experience seamless both in-store and online, giving patients more choice and convenience while we modernize how prescription payments are made.” An Open Call to Industry Partners Invictus Pharmacy Founder and CEO Meyer Davidoff is encouraging trading partners throughout the pharmaceutical supply chain, including drug manufacturers, wholesalers, and payers, to begin adding cryptocurrency to their balance sheets and to explore digital asset integration within their financial infrastructure. “This is the first step of our grand vision to revolutionize the archaic payment system within our industry,” said Davidoff. “We are actively building an additional blockchain-based payment rail upon which all stakeholders, from manufacturers to patients, will transact seamlessly and transparently.” This forthcoming network, being developed under Invictus Ventures, will serve as a digital settlement layer for prescription transactions, enabling instant fund transfers, automated rebate validation, and frictionless reimbursement flows. Once fully deployed, the system is expected to reduce claim processing times from weeks to seconds, setting a new benchmark for efficiency in U.S. healthcare payments. About Invictus Pharmacy Invictus Pharmacy, managed by New York–based Invictus Ventures Inc., is a vertically integrated, nationwide pharmacy platform founded in 2017. With a network of retail locations, a licensed mail-order pharmacy, a proprietary e-commerce platform, and claims adjudication technology, Invictus has served more than one million patients. Invictus was among the first pharmacy organizations to adopt a Direct-to-Consumer (DTC) model for its manufacturing partners, enabling brands to reach patients directly while bypassing traditional intermediaries. By partnering directly with manufacturers to offer direct-to-consumer pricing and adding cryptocurrency payment options with blockchain-enabled claims transparency, Invictus lowers costs, expands access, and advances a next-generation pharmacy model.

Tortola, BVI, November 12th, 2025, Chainwire Funtico has opened the token presale for Earth Version 2 (EV2), the studio’s forthcoming multiplayer sci-fi MMO. The sale offers early access to $EV2 – the token that drives the game’s economy – with 40% of the fixed 2.88 billion supply allocated to presale buyers. $EV2 will function as the in-game currency for upgrades, item crafting, and marketplace activity. Purchases during the presale can be made using ETH, USDT, USDC, BTC, BNB, SOL, SUPER, or via credit card. This flexible payment structure is designed to make participation straightforward for players who may not be familiar with crypto, lowering the barriers typically associated with Web3 presales. Purchases of over $1K will be awarded an additional 10% bonus in the form of TICO tokens. Earth Version 2 is set on a newly discovered planet where human explorers uncover remnants of an advanced alien civilization. The game mixes shooter mechanics and progression-based play with class roles and customizable gear. By focusing on high-visual fidelity and intensive combat, Funtico aims to deliver a gaming experience aligned with mainstream titles rather than the typical browser-based Web3 model. The project arrives at a moment of meaningful growth for the Web3 gaming category. Major publishers and investors have increasingly turned their attention toward decentralized platforms, where digital asset ownership and player-driven economies become more relevant to how games monetize and retain communities. EV2 builds upon this shift by enabling players to own their in-game progress – but without requiring prior blockchain knowledge. A streamlined login process, traditional store listings, and multi-currency checkout support are intended to meet gamers where they already play, instead of pushing them into crypto-native flows. EV2 introduces five playable classes – Brute, Cloaker, Mag, Pathfinder, and Valkyrie – that offer distinct combat roles ranging from tanking to stealth, support, and tactical drone deployment. Battles take place across multiple modes. Oblivion centers on team-based combat within a shrinking map, while Fracture is a 25-player free-for-all where everyone is hunting for glowing cubes. Players must collect two of each color to reveal a secret relic, but dying resets their progress. The rollout of EV2 follows a detailed timeline, starting with gameplay testing and presale onboarding which is currently underway. Partnership activity and additional ecosystem development are planned for Q1 2026 and the full launch and token generation event will take place in Q2, followed by tournaments, seasonal content, and integration of limited-edition digital asset bundles available to presale participants. Following earlier titles released on Avalanche, the $EV2 token will be issued on Ethereum. The move positions EV2 within one of the most active trading ecosystems, maximizing liquidity and reach ahead of launch. The game is scheduled for release on PC through Funtico, Steam, and the Epic Games Store, with console support planned at a later stage. The EV2 presale is now live at https://ev2.funtico.com/ About EV2 Developed by Funtico, Earth Version 2 (EV2) is an MMORPG powered by the $EV2 token in which character actions and core features are recorded onchain. The Web3 game, which fuses blockchain features such as true player ownership with seamless onboarding, is set in a cosmic battlefield where alien invasion threatens humanity. Players must gather alien tech, build their personalized EV2 suit, and face the invaders head-on. Skill-based PvE modes and tournaments enable players to compete for collectibles while fighting to save humanity. Learn more: https://ev2.funtico.com/ Contact Funtico [email protected]

As of October 12th at 6:00pm ET, the Company’s crypto holdings are comprised of 3,032,188 ETH at $4,154 per ETH (Bloomberg), 192 Bitcoin (BTC), $135 million stake in Eightco Holdings (NASDAQ: ORBS) (“moonshots”) and unencumbered cash of $104 million. BitMine crypto holdings reigns as the #1 Ethereum treasury and #2 global treasury, behind Strategy Inc (MSTR), which owns 640,031 BTC valued at $73 billion. BitMine remains the largest ETH treasury in the world. “The crypto liquidation over the past few days created a price decline in ETH, which BitMine took advantage of. We acquired 202,037 ETH tokens over the past few days pushing our ETH holdings to over 3 million, or 2.5% of the supply of ETH,” said Thomas “Tom” Lee of Fundstrat, Chairman of BitMine. “We are now more than halfway towards our initial pursuit of the ‘alchemy of 5%’ of ETH.” The GENIUS Act and SEC’s Project Crypto are as transformational to financial services in 2025 as US action on August 15, 1971 ending Bretton Woods and the USD on the gold standard 54 years ago. This 1971 event was the catalyst for the modernization of Wall Street, creating the iconic Wall Street titans and financial and payment rails of today. These proved to be better investments than gold. Bitmine also published the October Chairman’s Message. This month, we are posting Chairman Lee’s keynote at Token2049 held in Singapore, where Lee discusses the Ethereum Supercycle. The related presentation is also posted on the BitMine website. “Volatility creates deleveraging and this can cause assets to trade at substantial discounts to fundamentals, or as we say, ‘substantial discount to the future’ and this creates advantages for investors, at the expense of traders,” continued Lee. “This Chairman’s Message explains our framework for why we see Ethereum in a Supercycle driven by the AI and Wall Street moving into the blockchain.” BitMine is now one of the most widely traded stocks in the US. According to data from Fundstrat, the stock has traded average daily dollar volume of $3.5 billion (5-day average, as of October 10, 2025), ranking #22 in the US, behind Coinbase (rank #21) and ahead of UnitedHealth (rank #23) among 5,704 US-listed stocks (statista.com and Fundstrat research). “BitMine continues to attract institutional investor capital as our high liquidity is appealing. The combined trading volume share of BitMine and MSTR is now 88% of all global DAT trading volume. We continue to lead our crypto treasury peers by both the velocity of raising crypto NAV per share and by the high trading liquidity of our stock,” said Lee.
