Rumble is nearing a deal to acquire Northern Data in an all-share transaction, valuing Northern Data below its market capitalization of roughly $894 million. The exchange ratio has been adjusted from 2.319 Rumble shares to around 2 shares for each Northern Data share due to declining stock prices. Tether Holdings, a major financial backer for both companies, will forgo a significant portion of a $575 million loan to Northern Data as part of the agreement. This acquisition aims to support Rumble's expansion into cloud infrastructure. Confidence in Northern Data was impacted by a criminal investigation in Europe regarding potential misuse of tax incentives for GPU purchases, possibly used for crypto mining instead of AI computing. Northern Data recently sold its mining division, Peak Mining, for up to $200 million to an undisclosed buyer connected to Tether. Meanwhile, Tether is reporting record profits and considering potential investments valuing the company at around $500 billion, while also planning a re-entry into the U.S. market with a new stablecoin project. Tether has also acquired an 11.5% stake in Juventus football club and nominated two individuals to join its board.

The Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC), led by acting chair Caroline Pham, is reportedly in discussions with regulated exchanges to potentially allow leveraged spot crypto trading, possibly starting early next month. This move would deviate from current U.S. rules that primarily restrict leveraged trading to derivatives, like futures, rather than the underlying crypto assets themselves. These discussions involve major financial firms, including ICE Futures, CME, and crypto-focused companies like Coinbase Derivatives. The focus is on launching spot crypto trading products that include leverage, financing options, and margin. This means investors could borrow funds to increase their investment in cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin and Ether, with the potential for higher profits but also greater losses. While these products are available on international exchanges, offering them on CFTC-regulated platforms in the U.S. would provide enhanced oversight, risk management, and safeguards for investors. Pham is proceeding with this initiative despite a government shutdown, utilizing current Commodity Exchange Act regulations rather than awaiting new legislation. After her time at the CFTC, Pham is expected to assume a role at MoonPay.

Switzerland is reportedly nearing a deal with the United States to alleviate the 39% tariffs currently imposed on Swiss goods. This follows a visit by Swiss business leaders to President Trump, where they presented gifts, including a Rolex watch and a gold bar, and proposed measures to reduce the U.S. trade deficit, such as relocating gold smelting operations to the U.S. and increasing purchases of American aircraft. A letter of intent to resolve the trade issue is expected soon, potentially leading to a deal similar to the 15% tariff agreement between the U.S. and the European Union. The Swiss Economic Affairs Ministry acknowledged the private sector initiative and stated that the government is actively negotiating with U.S. officials. Discussions have included relocating gold refining operations to the U.S., which may influence a broader trade agreement. Trump's administration had previously considered tariffs on Swiss gold bars but later abandoned those plans.

Pudgy Penguins (PENGU) is experiencing renewed investor interest, with over $457,000 in purchases by 'smart money' investors, suggesting confidence in the token's future. PENGU has outperformed other major tokens in net buying volume, indicating a potential shift in capital towards mid-cap assets. The price is currently consolidating between $0.014 and $0.017, with buyers defending key support levels. A breakout above $0.0172 could lead to a price increase towards $0.022 to $0.025. The token is showing signs of stabilization after a three-month decline and is currently trading around $0.01429 with a market cap of $897 million. An exponential wedge pattern on the PENGU chart suggests potential price targets of $0.049 and $0.30 if momentum continues.

A Spanish crypto influencer, Romillo, was arrested on November 6, 2025, for allegedly running a $300 million cryptocurrency fraud scheme that affected over 3,000 victims internationally. His operation, the Madeira Invest Club (MIC), promised investors annual returns of 20% to 53% by investing in luxury assets and digital artwork, but it was actually a Ponzi scheme where new investors' money was used to pay earlier investors. Romillo is accused of controlling 52 shell companies and having 106 bank accounts across multiple countries. He was denied bail and is being held in provisional prison due to flight risk concerns after 29 million was found in a Singapore bank account linked to him. The case also involves political implications, with Romillo admitting to giving 100,000 to a far-right Member of the European Parliament, leading to investigations into illegal campaign financing and money laundering. Authorities have seized luxury assets, properties, and cryptocurrency wallets belonging to Romillo. The Spanish National Securities Market Commission (CNMV) had previously warned about the Madeira Invest Club, but the scheme continued to operate. Investigators are now examining Romillo's associates and family members, and victims are seeking compensation.

Analysts are predicting a potential price increase for Chainlink (LINK). Technical charts suggest a possible breakout from a long-term pattern, with targets initially around $30-$35 and potentially exceeding $50 if key resistance levels are broken. Another analyst notes a crucial support level around $14.70, aligning with a Fibonacci retracement zone, and forecasts initial gains towards $26, with a possible extension to $47. Currently, Chainlink is trading near $15.13, experiencing a slight daily decline, but trading volume remains strong. Whale accumulation data supports the possibility of a price recovery if buying interest returns at established support levels.

Ethereum's price recently broke through a resistance level around $3,400 and is currently trading at approximately $3,530, showing a 4.8% increase. Analysts are watching key price points to determine the next direction. A sustained hold above $3,500 could lead to a further rise towards $3,650, while a drop below $3,260 might trigger a decline towards $3,100. Some analysts view the market as trading within a range of $3,100 to $3,500, suggesting buying near the lower end and selling near the higher end. The market's strength indicates a potential upward movement before any pullback. Confirmation of a breakout will depend on sustained trading above $3,500 with strong participation. The next target is around $3,900 if the breakout is sustained.

According to a blockchain firm, the recent downturn in Bitcoin's price might be a temporary restructuring phase rather than the end of a bull market. The report highlights a decrease in leveraged trading positions in the Bitcoin futures market as evidence that excess speculation is being cleared out. A lack of momentum is observed with reduced demand from U.S. institutional investors. However, Bitcoin exchange reserves remain low, indicating limited supply, and stablecoin liquidity is returning, suggesting potential buying power. Bitcoin's price is around $101,930, with an 8% decline over the past week. The analysis suggests Bitcoin may trade within a limited range in the near term.

Former Ohio State Treasurer Josh Mandel, who previously championed Bitcoin by allowing Ohio businesses to pay taxes in it, lost $1.2 million on Bitcoin call options tied to BlackRock's iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT). Mandel predicted Bitcoin would reach $444,000 by November 8 but his bet, an 'all in' purchase of IBIT call options, expired worthless. As State Treasurer in 2018, Mandel launched OhioCrypto.com, enabling businesses to pay state taxes in Bitcoin, but the program was later suspended due to regulatory concerns. Mandel's loss highlights the risks associated with Bitcoin options trading and the volatility of cryptocurrency markets, particularly as interest in Bitcoin ETF options has increased since their launch in late 2024. This loss occurred even as Bitcoin ETFs have recently experienced net outflows.

A report by Bybit and Block Scholes indicates that the crypto derivatives market is cautiously stabilizing after a large liquidation event in October, triggered by trade tensions. Open interest in perpetual contracts has remained below $10 billion since then, with traders hesitant to re-enter positions. While futures market open interest is flat, options open interest is increasing, reflecting a defensive stance with demand for short-term puts. Bitcoin's price has largely been between $105,000 and $115,000, briefly falling to $99,000 but currently trading slightly above $101,800.

Stellar (XLM) is experiencing selling pressure while holding a key support level around $0.22. Analysis indicates the price is trading between $0.22 and $0.35, with $0.22 acting as a major support. A bearish crossover of moving averages suggests continued downside risk. The Relative Strength Index (RSI) is neutral but leaning bearish. Stellar is currently trading at $0.28, down 3.36% in the last 24 hours, with a market capitalization of $9.04 billion. Trading volume is moderate, and technical indicators point to ongoing bearish conditions, with the market cap trading below its basis line. The Chaikin Money Flow (CMF) shows weak accumulation and sustained selling dominance.

Changpeng Zhao (CZ), the founder of Binance, destroyed approximately $490,000 worth of meme coins that were unexpectedly sent to his publicly known donation wallet. The destroyed tokens included quq, SIREN, and BNBCARD, valued at $305,000, $142,000, and $43,000, respectively. CZ clarified that this action was simply to clean up the wallet, which is intended to only hold BNB, Binance's native token. He warned that in the future, he might sell unsolicited tokens on the market instead of burning them. This action follows a previous burn of $1.6 million in Broccoli tokens and $1.95 million in Tutorial tokens earlier in the year. The potential for CZ to sell these tokens could negatively impact their market price. CZ previously stated he didn't want to hurt token holders, but is changing his policy to address the ongoing issue of unwanted token airdrops to his wallet.

According to Bitwise CIO Matt Hougan, Bitcoin could potentially reach $115,000 by the end of the year due to new buyers and improving regulations like the CLARITY Act. He anticipates a possible rally to $150,000 in 2026, driven by treasury company demand, but also considers a worst-case scenario where Bitcoin could fall to $75,000 because of institutional outflows or an economic crash possibly triggered by an AI bubble burst and stock market decline. Hougan predicts Bitcoin could exceed $1.3 million by 2035. He also highlighted Ethereum, Chainlink, Solana, Uniswap, Tron, Ripple, and Ondo as altcoins with significant potential based on trends like tokenization, stablecoins, and DeFi. Hougan is particularly optimistic about Solana, suggesting it could increase tenfold from its current price and potentially reach a $1 trillion market cap. While he acknowledges the positive impact of crypto regulation like the CLARITY Act, he also cautions that it could negatively affect the DeFi sector if not implemented carefully.

Solana is showing signs of potentially rebounding after a period of price decline. A technical indicator called TD Sequential has flashed a 'buy' signal, suggesting the price drop might be ending. There's strong support around the $150 level, meaning buyers are likely to step in and prevent further falls. If Solana stays above $150, it could climb back towards $165-$170. Liquidation levels indicate many traders have stop-loss orders around $145-$150, meaning a dip to those levels could trigger a bounce. Solana's price is also testing the lower boundary of a descending channel, which historically leads to price recoveries, with a potential target of $180. Solana's network is also very active, with millions of users and transactions, indicating strong fundamental support for the cryptocurrency. If Solana holds above $150 and breaks through $165-$170, it could signal a stronger recovery.

Cardano's price is showing signs of a potential comeback. Market analysis indicates a possible increase in Cardano's market share, with targets of 3.5% to 4%. Technical analysis suggests a short-term goal of $0.72 if it breaks through the $0.65 resistance level. Longer-term, projections based on past performance suggest a potential rise to between $3.40 and $5.00. Data shows that top traders on Binance have increased their long positions in ADA by 10% in just three days, signaling growing confidence from large investors. The general sentiment around Cardano is shifting towards a more positive outlook.

XRP's price is showing signs of a potential upward trend due to a technical pattern called a 'double bottom,' suggesting the price might rise if it breaks above $2.35. Analysts are eyeing targets of $2.60 and $3.00, with some predicting a longer-term rally towards $5.00 or higher. A White House official predicted that tens of trillions of dollars will flow into crypto, specifically mentioning platforms integrated with real-world finance which some believe applies to Ripple's XRP Ledger. Ripple's XRP Ledger is being integrated with institutional systems, and the company is working to reduce the supply of XRP, potentially leading to increased prices as demand increases. However, XRP still faces risks like market volatility, macroeconomic pressures, and the ongoing SEC lawsuit. If the price fails to hold above $2.20, it could fall back towards $2.05 or lower. At the time of the article, XRP was trading around $2.31, up 2.28% in the last 24 hours.

BNB is currently trading around $991.49, showing a slight increase of 0.45% over the last 24 hours. Its market capitalization is approximately $136.49 billion, with a daily trading volume of $1.78 billion. The price has been fluctuating between $970 and $1,000, indicating stability after previous volatility. Analysts are observing a descending triangle formation on the 4-hour chart, suggesting a potential breakout is nearing. Key support is holding near $980-$1,000, and a break above the $1,050 resistance zone could lead to further gains towards $1,100-$1,200. Traders are cautiously optimistic, viewing the current consolidation as a possible accumulation phase. The circulating supply of BNB is 137.73 million units, ranking it 5th globally by market capitalization.

Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent has downplayed expectations regarding former President Trump's promise of $2,000 tariff dividends for Americans. While Trump suggested payouts from tariff revenue, Bessent indicated the benefits might be realized through existing tax breaks like those related to tips, overtime, Social Security, or auto loan deductions included in a recently passed economic bill, rather than direct checks. The Supreme Court heard arguments questioning the legality of Trump's tariffs, specifically his use of emergency powers to impose tariffs on billions of dollars of imports, potentially requiring over $100 billion in refunds to companies. The court's decision could significantly impact Trump's trade policies, particularly the Liberation Day tariffs. Chief Justice John Roberts suggested imposing tariffs is a power belonging to Congress, not the president. While Trump claims tariffs will help reduce the national debt, Bessent emphasized the goal is fairer trade.

With the U.S. government potentially reopening after a record-long shutdown, some cryptocurrency traders are anticipating a Bitcoin rally, drawing parallels to a similar situation in early 2019 when Bitcoin rose significantly after the government reopened. Bitcoin's price is up almost 3% and attention is on social media as the Senate considers a short-term funding proposal. While some analysts believe the reopening could act as a catalyst for positive sentiment, others caution that Bitcoin's performance is more closely tied to monetary policy and overall market conditions. Despite the uncertainty, there has been a notable increase in Bitcoin open interest, with some analysts warning that latecomers are entering the market. The market is watching to see if the end of the shutdown will trigger a rally or just a temporary price increase.

A recent report by AIMA and PwC indicates growing interest in cryptocurrency among hedge funds. Over half (55%) of traditional hedge funds now include digital assets in their portfolios, a rise from 47% in the previous year. While adoption is increasing, most funds are taking a cautious approach, with over half allocating less than 2% of their portfolios to crypto. On average, crypto-related investments make up approximately 7% of fund portfolios, and 71% of funds holding crypto plan to increase their positions in the coming year, citing diversification and return opportunities as key reasons. Many managers are choosing indirect exposure through digital currency derivatives (67%) rather than holding coins directly. Spot trading has also grown in popularity. Crypto-native funds are experiencing growth, with average assets under management exceeding $130 million in 2025. The most commonly held cryptocurrencies are Bitcoin (86%), Ethereum (80%), Solana (73%), and XRP (37%). Institutional interest is on the rise, with fund-of-funds participation reaching almost 40% and allocations from pension funds, foundations, and sovereign wealth funds climbing to 20%. However, half of traditional hedge funds without crypto investments still don't plan to invest in the next three years.

Stocks of companies that invested heavily in Bitcoin and Ether are declining as the prices of those cryptocurrencies fall. These "crypto-treasury stocks" had previously risen as investors sought indirect exposure to crypto. MicroStrategy's valuation, for example, has dropped from $128 billion to $70 billion. Companies like BitMine Immersion Technologies and ETHZilla, also backed by Peter Thiel, have seen their stock prices fall by more than 30% and 23% respectively over the past month. Bitcoin has fallen 15% and Strategy is down 26% in the past month. While some investors are closing out their positions, others are doubling down, believing in the long-term potential. Matt Cole, CEO of Strive, said the company is riding out the volatility because it raised funds using preferred shares instead of debt. Cole Grinde, a 29yearold investor in Seattle, put about $100,000 into BitMine at $45 a share earlier this year. He is down about $10,000 but says he is adding more.

XRP's price has been fluctuating, recently trading around $2.30 after a slight dip. A crypto analyst, Egrag Crypto, suggests that XRP might be entering a significant bullish phase, referred to as the 'fifth wave,' based on Elliott Wave Theory. This theory suggests that after a corrective phase, XRP could experience a strong upward surge, potentially mirroring patterns seen in 2017 and 2021. The analyst identifies potential price targets for this surge, ranging from $4.789 to as high as $18.259. The analyst advises traders to take advantage of this possible trend instead of resisting it, recalling how some traders lost money betting against XRP in the past. Currently, XRP is trading at $2.27, showing recent declines.

XRP is currently trading sideways around $2.32, struggling to gain upward momentum due to overall weak market conditions. There's a decrease in new investors showing interest in XRP, with new wallet creations significantly down from a recent peak. Long-term holders are also seeing their profits shrink, as indicated by a decline in the MVRV ratio. If XRP breaks below the $2.28 support level, it could fall further to $2.13, suggesting a potential correction. Conversely, increased investor confidence and inflows could push XRP above $2.36, potentially targeting $2.45 or $2.52.

Robert Kiyosaki, author of Rich Dad Poor Dad, is buying more gold, silver, Bitcoin, and Ethereum, anticipating a potential economic downturn. He reiterated his prediction that Bitcoin could reach $250,000, viewing it as a hedge against the Federal Reserve's monetary policy. Kiyosaki also sees potential in Ethereum due to its role in stablecoins. Bitcoin is currently trading near $100,000, a level that has acted as support. Analysis of Bitcoin's Market Value to Realized Value (MVRV) ratio suggests potential for a rebound, similar to past cycles. A key level to watch is $112,000, the short-term holder realized price; staying below this level indicates cautious sentiment. Major support levels are identified at $56,000 and $38,000.

China has resumed shipping Nexperia chips, which are crucial for car electrical systems, after previous export halts caused supply problems for automakers. This decision follows a period of tension between China and the Netherlands, triggered by the Dutch government's takeover of Nexperia, a company owned by Chinese firm Wingtech. The Netherlands claimed Wingtech intended to move European production to China, arguing it was a threat to European economic security. While shipments have restarted, the underlying dispute over the company's ownership remains unresolved. The Chinese commerce ministry is urging the European Union to pressure the Netherlands to reverse its actions. Concerns are also rising in Europe regarding Chinese trade practices, particularly subsidies that lead to overproduction and increased competition for European industries. This has led to discussions about potential retaliatory measures to protect European industries if trade relations worsen. In response to these tensions, German officials plan to visit China to improve communication and seek ways to reduce trade friction.

China's consumer prices rose slightly in October, increasing by 0.2% year-on-year, marking the first positive increase since June. This increase was driven in part by increased spending during the National Day and Mid-Autumn holidays. However, food prices remained lower compared to last year, although they saw a slight increase compared to September. Factory prices continued to decline, falling by 2.1% year-on-year, marking the third consecutive year of decline. While industrial profits increased in September, manufacturing activity contracted and exports to the U.S. fell significantly. China has temporarily suspended certain export controls on materials like gallium and germanium until November 2025. Policymakers are focused on boosting domestic consumption and investment.

The cryptocurrency market experienced a surge following an announcement regarding potential tariffs and a $400 billion dividend for Americans. The market's positive reaction suggests investor optimism, potentially driven by expectations of increased disposable income among American citizens and its subsequent investment into crypto assets. The specific details of the tariffs and their connection to the dividend distribution are not elaborated upon, but the combined effect led to a noticeable uptrend in the crypto market.

Dogwifhat (WIF) is attempting to break through a downward trendline, indicating a potential shift in price direction. An analyst pointed out this breakout attempt as the price increased by 12%. However, Dogwifhat's price movement is closely tied to Bitcoin's, so a Bitcoin correction could negate this breakout. Currently, Dogwifhat is priced around $0.47, down 3.47% over the last 24 hours, with a market capitalization of approximately $469.51 million and a daily trading volume of $135.04 million. Trading activity remains somewhat range-bound, suggesting cautious participation. Technical indicators show neutral momentum, with reduced volatility, and traders are awaiting clearer confirmation before making significant moves. For the price to increase it needs to maintain above $0.50 otherwise it could drop to $0.40 which is a key level to watch.

Digital Asset Treasury Companies (DATCos) have invested heavily in cryptocurrency in 2025, reaching $42.7 billion. A significant portion, $22.6 billion, was spent during the third quarter, marking it as the strongest quarter for DATCo accumulation. Bitcoin acquisitions dominated, accounting for $30 billion, or 70.3% of the total, while Ethereum followed with $7.9 billion, primarily in August. Altcoins like SOL and BNB made up the remaining portion. Strategy is the largest DATCo, holding $70.7 billion in Bitcoin, which is approximately 3.05% of the total Bitcoin supply. The number of DATCos has grown significantly, from four in January 2020 to 142 in October 2025, with a majority being formed this year. Total DATCo holdings reached $137.3 billion by the end of October 2025, representing a 139.6% increase year-to-date. Bitcoin is the most widely held asset, found in 113 of the 142 DATCos.

The article discusses two crypto presales, Digitap ($TAP) and BlockDAG (BDAG), as potential investment opportunities. Digitap is described as an "omni-bank" aiming to merge fiat and crypto, with a live app and Visa card integration. It has raised $1.6 million in its presale. BlockDAG has raised $435 million in its presale, which started in March 2024, and is building a new layer one blockchain. The article suggests Digitap may be a better investment due to its focus on immediate utility and stablecoin adoption. Digitap's tokenomics involve burning tokens and rewarding stakers based on platform profits. The article highlights Digitap's current presale price of $0.0297, with a listing price of $0.14.

Ethereum's price is struggling to recover after a 15.8% drop earlier in the month. While investors have slowed down their selling, this hasn't led to a price increase. The Relative Strength Index, which measures buying and selling momentum, is still showing that sellers have the upper hand. Ethereum is currently trading around $3,512, slightly above a support level of $3,489. To show a positive change, the price needs to break through the $3,607 resistance level. If market conditions improve, Ethereum could test $3,607 again, and a breakthrough could push it towards $3,802.

Some Bitcoin mining companies are exploring artificial intelligence (AI) as a new way to make money because AI computing is currently more profitable. Cipher Mining, with support from tech companies like Google and Amazon, recently shifted its focus to AI, leading to a significant increase in their stock price. While this shift might seem concerning, it's not expected to significantly impact Bitcoin's mining hash rate, which measures the network's computing power. This is because Bitcoin mining difficulty is increasing, and governments worldwide are now supporting Bitcoin mining, filling the gap left by companies moving to AI. The increasing government involvement, with at least 11 countries sponsoring Bitcoin miners, highlights a shift from previous anti-crypto sentiments and contributes to the decentralization of Bitcoin.

A new crypto phishing group called Eleven Drainer has emerged, targeting cryptocurrency wallet users and stealing millions. This group is part of a growing trend of phishing-as-a-service outfits that provide scammers with tools like cloned websites and fake social media accounts to steal crypto. These services have contributed to an estimated $494 million in losses in 2024, a 67% increase from the previous year. Experts say that users often fall victim to these scams due to hurried decisions and social engineering tactics that trick them into signing away their assets. They advise users to be cautious of unfamiliar websites, carefully examine wallet signature requests, and avoid approving transactions under pressure.

The cryptocurrency Sei (SEI) is experiencing selling pressure and struggling to maintain its price. Currently trading around $0.17, SEI has decreased in value over the last day and faces resistance at several higher price levels. Its market capitalization is approximately $1.08 billion, with a daily trading volume of $172.27 million. Technical indicators show a bearish trend, with the price consistently failing to break above key resistance levels. Although some traders express long-term optimism, the overall market sentiment suggests continued downward pressure unless SEI can overcome resistance around $0.2467.

The crypto market is shifting away from meme coins towards projects with real-world utility. While meme coins like Shiba Inu have declined in value, utility-driven projects such as Zcash have significantly increased. Digitap ($TAP) is highlighted as a promising altcoin due to its live, operational financial ecosystem designed to bridge crypto, fiat, and DeFi. The Digitap app is available on both the App Store and Google Play, allowing users to exchange currencies, make transfers, and manage a multi-asset wallet. Digitap has already sold over 100 million $TAP tokens in its presale, raising over $1.6 million. The current presale price is $0.0297, with a planned listing price of $0.14. The total supply of $TAP is capped at 2 billion tokens, with allocations for presale, marketing, community rewards, partnerships, and ecosystem development.

Bitcoin's price is at a critical level of $100,300. If it drops below this, it could fall further to $93,708. If it stays above, it could rise to $104,300, and potentially even higher to $111,999. Gold's price is facing resistance and could fall to $3,983, and potentially lower. If it breaks above $4,014, it could rise to $4,040. Silver's price is being supported by a trendline, but faces resistance. If the trendline breaks, it could fall to $47.36, but if it holds, it could rise above $48.86.

Renowned short seller James Chanos has closed his 11-month-old short position against MicroStrategy (MSTR) and Bitcoin, signaling a possible end to the bear market for Bitcoin treasury companies. This move is seen as a potential indicator of a trend reversal, suggesting the worst may be over for companies holding significant Bitcoin reserves. MicroStrategy currently holds over 640,000 Bitcoins. The shift coincides with institutional interest in Bitcoin, with traditional finance firms like JPMorgan increasing their involvement in Bitcoin ETFs and related custody solutions. While volatility is expected to continue, the closure of this high-profile short position suggests a psychological turning point and improved sentiment towards Bitcoin and related assets.

Bitcoin's price is currently around $102,440, showing a slight decrease over the last day. An analyst, Burak Kesmeci, suggests that Bitcoin could potentially drop to around $95,000 before recovering. This prediction is based on an analysis of Bitcoin's UTXO age bands, which track how long different investors hold their coins. Specifically, the analyst looks at the relationship between the 1-week to 1-month and 1-month to 3-month holding periods. Historically, when the 1-week to 1-month group's average price falls below the 1-month to 3-month group's average price, it has been followed by a price correction. Based on past occurrences, the analyst anticipates a potential bottom for Bitcoin's price in the $95,000 to $96,000 range. The analyst also mentioned that long-term investors may be in the red. In the past these investors being in the red has typically preceded a price correction.

In the third quarter of 2025, the stablecoin market experienced significant growth, with $41 billion in net inflows, marking the strongest expansion since 2021. Retail adoption is stabilizing after a period of rapid growth, as the crypto industry shifts towards practical use in emerging economies. Daily active users leveled out at around 3.6 million, while retail payment volumes increased by 4% to $1.77 trillion, despite a slight decrease in the number of transactions, indicating larger transfer sizes. Tether's USDT dominates retail transactions with 83%, while USDC is favored in DeFi. Binance plays a major role in providing liquidity for both tokens, particularly in emerging markets. Stablecoins are increasingly used in struggling economies to combat inflation, with countries like Algeria, Bolivia, and Venezuela experiencing high premiums to access dollar-pegged tokens. Blockchain platforms are also seeing shifts in stablecoin traffic, with Binance Smart Chain still leading in retail transfers but experiencing slowed growth, while Aptos has stabilized and Plasma has emerged as a new player. The stablecoin market cap is currently around $311 billion.

Robert Kiyosaki, author of "Rich Dad Poor Dad," is advocating for buying hard assets like Bitcoin, gold, and silver, anticipating a market crash and dollar devaluation. He projects Bitcoin reaching $250,000, gold at $27,000, and silver at $100. He also sees potential in Ethereum due to its role in stablecoins. Kiyosaki believes government debt and inflation are eroding savings and that assets with limited supply are the best defense. Separately, Donald Trump has proposed a $2,000 tariff dividend for Americans, funded by tariffs, which could act as stimulus, but is controversial and faces legal challenges. This proposal could increase liquidity in the market potentially driving up the price of assets like Bitcoin, but its long-term effects are uncertain.

Dogecoin experienced a 2.29% price increase in the last 24 hours, reaching $0.1780, after a month-long decline where it lost over 25% of its value. Its market capitalization rose to $27.01 billion. However, trading activity decreased significantly, with a 53.39% drop in trading volume to $1.46 billion. The price fluctuated between $0.170 and $0.178 during the day, showing a recovery trend after an initial decline. Market analysts are observing a potential macro cycle that could lead to a new bullish trend, projecting a possible peak near $7.21.

Bitcoin is trading around $102,100, up approximately 2% in the last 24 hours, while Ethereum is hovering near $3,530, showing a 4% increase. US spot Bitcoin ETFs saw inflows of about $240 million on Thursday after six days of outflows, mainly through BlackRock, Fidelity, and ARK Invest. Ethereum's Fusaka upgrade, featuring PeerDAS, is scheduled for December 3rd to expand data capacity for layer-2 networks. Bitcoin faces resistance between $110,000 and $125,000, with heavy liquidity observed in that range. Ethereum is approaching a resistance zone near $3,700, where approximately 869,000 ETH were previously bought. Ethereum has been making higher lows on the hourly chart, suggesting potential short-term upward momentum, with a possible upside opening if it breaks above $3,480-$3,500.

Robert Kiyosaki, the author of Rich Dad, Poor Dad, is predicting a major market crash and advising investors to buy gold, silver, Bitcoin, and Ethereum. He set price targets of $27,000 for gold, $100 for silver by 2026, $250,000 for Bitcoin, and $60,000 for Ethereum. Kiyosaki believes stocks are overvalued and sees precious metals and cryptocurrencies as hedges against market uncertainty. Reaching his price target for Ethereum would require a substantial increase and would make its market capitalization larger than Bitcoin's.

XRP, the cryptocurrency associated with Ripple, has shown a potential buy signal according to the TD Sequential indicator on its daily chart, after recently dropping about 10% from its recent high. As of November 9, 2025, XRP is priced around $2.28. The TD Sequential indicator suggests the recent downtrend might be ending. However, this signal needs confirmation from other indicators like volume and momentum. Analysts believe XRP could potentially reach $2.80 if the market strengthens. Factors such as Ripple's Swell 2025 conference and the possibility of an XRP spot ETF approval are contributing to market optimism. If these events don't materialize or are delayed, it could negatively affect XRP's price. Investors are watching the $2.20-$2.30 range as a crucial support level and monitoring volume and momentum to confirm a trend reversal. Overall crypto market sentiment is an important factor to consider.

Michael Saylor, known for his advocacy of Bitcoin, has suggested his company might purchase more Bitcoin. This coincides with Goldman Sachs forecasting that the Federal Reserve will likely implement three interest rate cuts. Lower interest rates can sometimes make assets like Bitcoin more attractive to investors.

A recent report indicates growing interest in tokenization among hedge funds, with 52% considering tokenized fund structures. This interest is driven by the potential for broader investor access and improved operational efficiency. Simultaneously, the market for real-world assets (RWA) has reached a record high of $35.8 billion, largely fueled by tokenized money market funds. Smaller fund managers are showing more interest in exploring tokenization compared to larger ones. Despite the enthusiasm, legal and regulatory uncertainty remain significant obstacles to wider adoption, particularly in North America. However, hedge funds are increasingly using tokenized assets for liquidity management, citing benefits like faster settlement and enhanced yield. Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong emphasized tokenization's potential for 24/7 trading. While some expect tokenization to become standard within a decade, most believe it will coexist with traditional formats, contingent on regulatory clarity and investor demand.

Ethereum's price might drop to around $2,000 in the short term, according to some analysts, before potentially rising to $10,000 by 2028. This prediction is based on market analysis and historical patterns. Currently, Ethereum is trading around $3,405, down from its recent high. Institutional investors, like Ark Invest, are showing continued interest in Ethereum, which could support its long-term growth. However, the price is also influenced by the performance of Bitcoin and the activity of Ethereum ETFs. Key support levels to watch are around $3,200 and $3,000. Some analysts suggest a rise above $3,400 is needed for a sustained upward trend. Technical indicators point to potential future price targets of $5,766, $6,658, and $9,547 if Bitcoin's dominance decreases. About 27 million ETH are currently staked.

IPOGenie is launching a presale for its $IPO tokens, offering early access to a platform for tokenized private market deals and startup investments. To participate, users need a Web3 wallet like MetaMask with ETH, and may need to complete KYC verification. The presale is accessed through the official ipogenie.ai website where participants can connect their wallets, fund their accounts, and choose their investment allocation after reviewing the presale terms including token price, vesting schedules, and bonus tiers. After the presale, participants will be able to claim their purchased and any free $IPO tokens after the Token Generation Event (TGE). Token holders may have opportunities to stake their tokens for rewards or participate in platform governance. Participating in the presale involves risks, including the potential for scams and regulatory issues, so verifying website URLs and contract addresses is essential.

An analyst suggests that Ripple's XRP cryptocurrency has the potential to handle trillions of dollars in global payment flows, rather than just billions. This indicates a belief in XRP's capacity to significantly expand its role in international financial transactions and potentially increase its market value.

Aster (ASTER) has been trading sideways for about a month, facing resistance it needs to overcome for recovery. Recently, large investors, known as whales, have accumulated over 51 million ASTER tokens, worth approximately $53 million, since the beginning of November. This accumulation suggests that these whales are anticipating a potential price increase. A technical indicator, the Squeeze Momentum Indicator, also suggests that ASTER could soon experience a significant price movement. ASTER's price is currently around $1.04, and it needs to break through the resistance zone above $1.25 to potentially reach $1.50 or $1.63. However, if market conditions weaken, the price could drop below $0.91, potentially leading to a decline towards $0.80.

According to an analyst, Bitcoin's price is at risk of falling to new lows if it stays below $106,000. This means if Bitcoin doesn't rise above this level, its value could drop further than it already has.

Despite Bitcoin's recent price struggles, BlackRock remains confident in its long-term value, viewing it as a structural theme driven by increasing adoption, strong liquidity, and concerns about traditional monetary systems. They see Bitcoin's network growth as outpacing even mobile phones and the early internet. BlackRock emphasizes that its Bitcoin ETF, IBIT, has simplified access for institutions by reducing operational hurdles and enhancing liquidity. IBIT has seen significant inflows, exceeding $64 billion since launch. BlackRock positions Bitcoin as a global monetary alternative, potentially benefiting from geopolitical instability and erosion of trust in fiat currencies, while also serving as a bet on the expansion of digital-asset infrastructure. IBIT's inflows have exceeded all other Bitcoin ETF's in the market.

American Bitcoin, a company with ties to Eric Trump and Donald Trump Jr., has increased its Bitcoin holdings to 4,000 BTC, worth approximately $415 million. The company acquired nearly 170 BTC between October 24 and November 5, at a value exceeding $14 million. This accumulation positions American Bitcoin around 25th among corporate Bitcoin holders. Separately, Trump family-linked ventures have reportedly gained around $1 billion in pre-tax earnings from various crypto projects, including memecoins like TRUMP and MELANIA. Trump Media and Technology Group holds over $1.3 billion in Bitcoin, totaling more than 11,500 BTC. Bitcoin's price was around $102,175, a slight increase over 24 hours but still below its all-time high.

Arthur Hayes, co-founder of BitMEX, revealed that Zcash (ZEC) is now his family office Maelstrom's second-largest liquid holding, after Bitcoin. This shift occurred after Zcash's market value increased significantly, rising over 700% since September and briefly exceeding $700. The surge has elevated Zcash back into the top 20 cryptocurrencies by market capitalization, with estimates ranging from $9 billion to $11 billion. Hayes has mentioned a long-term target of $10,000 for Zcash, contributing to the increased interest. The renewed attention on Zcash is attributed to its privacy features and speculative trading. Traders are closely monitoring on-chain activity, exchange flows, and an upcoming supply change in mid-November that will reduce miner rewards.

Bitcoin's price is currently consolidating around $100,000 after being rejected at the $116,000 resistance level. Short-term momentum has turned bearish, with the price falling below the 100-day and 200-day moving averages. The market shows signs of weakness, and buyers haven't strongly re-entered. The next major support level is around $95,000. Open interest, which reflects the total value of outstanding Bitcoin contracts, has significantly decreased, indicating traders are cautious and avoiding risk. A recovery above the $108,000-$110,000 range is needed to shift the outlook back to bullish.

The article discusses how influencer Andrew Tate publicly predicted a Bitcoin crash but, according to blockchain analytics, simultaneously bought over $5 million worth of Bitcoin. This highlights a potential problem in the crypto market where influencers can manipulate prices. Pepeto Exchange is developing a system to prevent such manipulation by creating transparent leaderboards showing influencer holdings in real-time. The system includes real-time wallet verification, anti-pump protocols, and verified project listings. Pepeto Exchange is positioning itself and selected meme coin projects for the anticipated 2026 bull market, with its final application window for verified meme coin listings closing this month. Early participants can buy and stake Pepeto using USDT, ETH, BNB, or card with a 218% APY. The exchange aims to build manipulation-resistant crypto infrastructure with institutional-grade transparency.

Coinbase's latest report suggests that the October crypto sell-off was a healthy reset rather than the end of the bull market. The report indicates that the sell-off eliminated excessive borrowing in the crypto market, leading to stronger core fundamentals. Instead of a market collapse, Coinbase believes this volatility has created an environment for institutions to shift their investments and build a foundation for future growth. Institutions are now prioritizing projects with genuine value, compliance, and long-term potential, focusing on quality over quantity. The report highlights continued institutional demand for crypto, particularly in areas like Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) chains, real-world asset (RWA) tokenization platforms, and DeFi protocols that provide sustainable returns. Despite ongoing economic uncertainty, Coinbase sees the crypto market as being in a base-building phase, with capital flowing into assets designed for long-term viability and regulatory compliance, implying that the market is gearing up for its next phase of growth.

Bitcoin's price rose to $104,000, marking the third time it has reached this level in the past week. This increase occurred shortly after President Trump announced plans to provide many Americans with a dividend of at least $2,000 per person, excluding high-income earners. This announcement reminded some of the stimulus checks issued during the early stages of the COVID-19 pandemic. Following Trump's announcement, Bitcoin's price increased from under $102,000 to $104,000 within minutes. Ethereum also saw gains, rising over 4% to above $3,500, while ZEC surged by 24% to $650, and XMR increased by 19%.

The cryptocurrency market is seeing potential for price increases this week in Bitcoin (BTC), XRP, and Solana (SOL). The article discusses the possibility of Bitcoin reaching $100,000. It highlights factors influencing these specific cryptocurrencies, suggesting conditions may be favorable for a surge in their values in the coming days.

Litecoin's price has increased by 20%, rising from around $87 to approximately $105.52. This surge is attributed to renewed investor interest, including accumulation by large investors and increased trading volumes. Some analysts predict a potential long-term price target of $2,500 by mid-2026, based on historical trends, but other forecasts are more conservative, estimating prices between $115 and $199 for 2025. The potential approval of Litecoin ETFs and growing institutional interest are also contributing factors to the positive outlook. However, achieving the $2,500 target depends on continued market strength and positive economic conditions. The crypto community is closely watching Litecoin's ability to maintain its price above $100, though pullbacks may happen.

Ethereum's price is predicted to rise towards $4,000 as market confidence increases, currently trading around $3,400 with a 6.78% increase in the last 24 hours. Ethena, a yield-focused project built on Ethereum, is also experiencing gains, trading at $0.3200, up 4.83% daily. Remittix, a payment platform facilitating crypto-to-bank transfers in over 30 countries, is gaining attention for its real-world utility, trading at $0.1166 per token after securing $28 million in private funding. The focus is shifting towards projects with practical applications and established infrastructure within the Ethereum ecosystem.

Re7 Labs, a DeFi risk management company, is facing criticism after posting an update on the Stream Finance insolvency on X. The company's post, meant to address the situation, has instead triggered backlash for allegedly failing in its role as a curator. Users are complaining that Re7 Labs' due diligence was insufficient and that the update focused on known data instead of offering solutions. The Stream Finance collapse has resulted in an estimated $284-285 million in debt across various DeFi platforms. Re7 Labs is one of several curators involved, alongside MEV Capital, Varlamore, and TelosC. The incident follows a $128 million exploit on Balancer and a $1 million oracle manipulation on Moonwell.

Cryptocurrency prices are increasing following an announcement by Donald Trump that proposes a tariff dividend of at least $2,000 per American.

The decentralized finance (DeFi) market experienced a significant downturn recently, with the total value locked (TVL) across major blockchain networks like Ethereum, Solana, Arbitrum, BNB Smart Chain, and Base all decreasing by double-digit percentages. Ethereum's TVL fell approximately 13% to $74.2 billion, while Solana and Arbitrum each saw declines of about 14%, leaving their TVLs at roughly $10 billion and $3 billion, respectively. BNB Smart Chain and Base also experienced losses. This overall decline, pushing total DeFi TVL from nearly $150 billion to $130 billion, was intensified by security breaches, including a $120 million exploit on Balancer and approximately $93 million in missing assets at Stream Finance, which halted withdrawals and deposits, forcing Elixir to wind down its deUSD stablecoin. These security events highlighted vulnerabilities in DeFi's architecture and smart contracts.

Tron (TRX) crypto has seen a significant increase in its market dominance as Bitcoin's dominance has decreased. TRX dominance rose from 0.76% to 0.81% within a week, marking a 12% increase from its October lows. The price of TRX is currently around $0.29, showing a 5% increase from its weekly low, outperforming Bitcoin and Ethereum in weathering recent market downturns. This positive movement is potentially supported by network inflows of over $107 million this week and increased trading activity, including a surge in address activity to over 25 million. While whale activity remains low, suggesting limited potential for rapid price increases, spot net inflows have increased, confirming a rising demand for TRX. The cryptocurrency's open interest is around $270 million, much lower than Bitcoin and Ethereum, which may reduce the risk of significant price drops due to liquidations.

Donald Trump announced a plan to distribute $2,000 tariff dividend checks to most Americans, excluding high-income earners, funded by tariff revenue. He claims tariffs are boosting the U.S. economy, but small business owners say they are struggling with rising costs and supply chain issues due to these policies. The Supreme Court is reviewing the legality of Trump's use of emergency powers to impose tariffs, which currently target countries like India, China, and Brazil. A temporary agreement with China includes a 10% reduction in tariffs and a one-year hold on further increases, but trade tensions persist. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent indicated the U.S. would likely maintain current tariff levels regardless of the court's decision.

Spanish authorities have dismantled an alleged $260 million Ponzi scheme run by the Madeira Invest Club, which attracted over 3,000 investors with promises of high returns from investments in luxury assets and cryptocurrency. The scheme operated through shell companies in over 10 countries, including the UK, US, Malaysia, Portugal, and Hong Kong, but no actual investments were made. Earlier investors were paid with funds from new members, a hallmark of a Ponzi scheme. The investigation, called Operation PONEI, involved Europol and law enforcement agencies from the U.S., Singapore, Thailand, and Malaysia. Authorities have arrested the alleged mastermind, known as CryptoSpain, and seized assets, with the investigation ongoing to identify other individuals involved in the scheme's global operations.

Bitcoin is showing signs of recovery, rebounding to around $101,800 after briefly dipping below $100,000. This recovery is attributed to renewed buyer interest and positive technical signals, including a trendline breakout. Analysts suggest a potential move towards $104,000 and even $125,000-$135,000 if Bitcoin can sustain its position above $104,000, which analysts see as a critical resistance level. The cryptocurrency's market capitalization is approximately $2.03 trillion, with a 24-hour trading volume of $77.2 billion. Support is identified at $98,900, and a break below this level could lead to further price declines. The overall market direction will depend on how Bitcoin reacts around these key support and resistance levels. Long-term forecasts for 2025 range from $150,000 to $180,000 and for 2030, as high as $350,000.

Michael Burry, known for predicting the 2008 housing market crash, is now betting against AI stocks, particularly Nvidia and Palantir, through $1.1 billion in put options, suggesting he believes an AI bubble is about to burst. Palantir's CEO Alex Karp criticized Burry's move as absurd, highlighting his company's strong revenue growth and upgraded forecasts, while Nvidia's CEO Jensen Huang dismissed bubble concerns despite a temporary stock dip following Burry's short. The AI sector's massive investment, surpassing $1 trillion annually, contrasts with a struggling economy where consumer debt is rising and wage growth is slow. The concentration of market cap in the Magnificent Seven tech stocks and Nvidia becoming a $5 trillion company has made investors nervous. Peter Schiff also believes that crypto is about to blow up, but he's right up there with Burry on AI.

XRP Tundra is a new project aiming to connect the XRP Ledger and Solana blockchains to enable interaction between the two networks. It uses two tokens: TUNDRA-S on Solana for staking and rewards, and TUNDRA-X on the XRP Ledger for governance. The project's Phase 10 presale values TUNDRA-S at $0.158 with a 10% bonus and TUNDRA-X at $0.079, having raised over $2.5 million so far. The system has undergone audits by SolidProof, Cyberscope, and FreshCoins, and the development team has completed KYC verification with Vital Block. Users can stake TUNDRA-S and XRP in Cryo Vaults for up to 20% APY, and participate in Arctic Spinner for bonus tokens. Liquidity is managed by Meteoras DAMM V2 system, which adjusts fees based on market volatility.

A U.S. court declared a mistrial in the case against Anton and James Pepaire-Bueno, two brothers accused of exploiting the Ethereum MEV-boost system. The brothers were alleged to have stolen $25 million in Ethereum by viewing hidden pending transactions and executing a "sandwich attack" against cryptocurrency traders. Prosecutors argued this was a form of wire fraud, while the defense claimed the brothers operated within the boundaries of Ethereum trading. The jury failed to reach a unanimous verdict after a four-week trial, citing emotional distress and scheduling conflicts. Although a mistrial was declared, the charges against the brothers remain active, and prosecutors have the option to pursue another trial.

Bitcoin's price has been volatile in November, testing the $100,000 level. An on-chain analysis using the Bitcoin Sharpe Signal on Binance, which measures risk-adjusted returns, indicates a potential for further price corrections in the short term. The Sharpe Signal has turned negative, suggesting that investors are not being adequately compensated for the risks they are taking. This contrasts with the period between July and September when the signal was positive and Bitcoin's price saw positive momentum. Despite the negative signal, there isn't evidence of a full-scale market collapse driven by liquidations or impulsive sales. The current situation may indicate a temporary market correction, potentially due to reduced institutional investor activity. If the Sharpe Signal remains negative, Bitcoin could experience more price declines, but a recovery to positive territory for the signal could signal a price bottom. Bitcoin is currently priced around $101,750.

A U.S. regulator, potentially the one overseeing digital assets, is moving towards allowing spot trading of cryptocurrencies. This means they are considering permitting the immediate buying and selling of cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin and Ethereum directly, rather than just futures contracts or other derivatives. The regulator's actions suggest a possible shift toward greater acceptance and integration of cryptocurrencies within the existing financial system, which could have broad implications for the crypto market.

Wall Street firms are increasingly interested in the potential profits from cryptocurrencies, but are not as interested in or convinced by the underlying technology. This indicates a focus on crypto as an investment asset class rather than a technological revolution for traditional Wall Street firms.

Two crypto presales, IPOGenie and BitcoinHyper, are attracting attention from investors looking for early-stage opportunities. Presales allow investors to buy tokens before they are publicly available, potentially at lower prices. IPOGenie aims to provide access to private market deals, staking, and governance for token holders, while BitcoinHyper focuses on scaling Bitcoin's infrastructure using Layer-2 technology and smart contracts and has already raised over $14 million. Investors should research tokenomics, vesting schedules, and project roadmaps before participating, understanding that presales carry risks such as execution delays and liquidity issues. Early participation may offer lower prices and bonuses, but it also involves higher risk. It is also important to comply with any local regulations.

Ripple and the SEC have officially ended their nearly five-year legal battle by jointly dismissing all remaining appeals. This resolves the uncertainty around XRP's status, specifically reinforcing that XRP sales on exchanges are not considered securities transactions under U.S. law. Ripple can now focus on growth and has recently raised $500 million at a $40 billion valuation. The company is working on payments innovation, expanding the real-world use of XRP, and its RLUSD stablecoin. Ripple is also working with companies like Mastercard and Gemini on a credit card settlement system powered by RLUSD on the XRP Ledger. The resolution of the lawsuit allows Ripple to rebuild its brand and focus on partnerships and expanding its stablecoin ecosystem, aiming for greater adoption of XRP.

The UK is implementing stricter regulations on crypto, leading to some Ledger blog pages being blocked for UK users due to new financial promotion rules requiring registration and approval for crypto-related content. This means educational resources, like guides on securing crypto assets, are now inaccessible to UK residents without using a VPN. A Coinbase advertisement was also banned in the UK for allegedly being misleading. Major banks like NatWest are restricting crypto transactions, limiting access for UK residents by blocking payments to exchanges and refusing business to clients accepting Bitcoin. The UK's move toward a mandatory digital ID scheme raises privacy concerns. Globally, there's increased scrutiny of privacy-focused crypto projects, demonstrated by the sentencing of a Samourai Wallet developer in the U.S.

October was a down month for the crypto market, marking the first negative returns since 2018 with a 6.1% overall market decline. Despite this, Bitcoin's dominance increased while Ethereum's slightly decreased. There was significant growth in privacy-focused cryptocurrencies, with transactions increasing by over 30% on the top three privacy blockchains, led by a surge in Zcash transactions. Interest also grew in x402, an open payment protocol, driven initially by one-click mints but reinforced by integrations from Google and Cloudflare. An AI model trading competition showed that risk management is more important than prediction accuracy. Easing trade tensions between the U.S. and China, along with the Federal Reserve potentially ending quantitative tightening, could positively influence the market by December.

XRP is experiencing increased selling pressure from long-term holders who are taking profits, causing the price to decline. Profit-taking has increased by 240% since September, reaching approximately $220 million per day as the price has dropped from $3.09 to around $2.30. This selling is happening as the price weakens, unlike past trends where selling occurred during price increases. Despite the price drop, the underlying factors supporting XRP remain strong, including Ripple's legal settlement with the SEC and strategic company developments like fundraising and acquisitions. There is also optimism surrounding potential XRP-based ETF approvals in the US, which could stabilize sentiment and attract institutional investment.

The Spanish Civil Guard has arrested the alleged leader of a cryptocurrency-related Ponzi scheme. The scheme is suspected of defrauding investors of approximately 260 million euros. The arrest highlights ongoing concerns about fraud and illicit activities within the cryptocurrency space and the increasing scrutiny from law enforcement agencies.

Mutuum Finance (MUTM) is generating buzz with its ongoing presale, having already raised $18.5 million from over 17,800 holders. Currently in Phase 6, with 85% of tokens sold at $0.035, analysts predict MUTM could reach $16 by 2030. This projection is based on the protocol's planned expansions within the DeFi sector, including a V1 protocol testnet debut on Sepolia in Q4 2025. The platform emphasizes security, highlighted by a CertiK audit score of 90/100 and a $50,000 bug bounty program. To boost activity, Mutuum Finance has launched a daily leaderboard, awarding $500 in MUTM to the top depositor each day. Furthermore, there is an active $100,000 giveaway, distributing $10,000 to 10 winners. The presale stages offer increasing prices, with Phase 7 set at $0.04 before the eventual launch price of $0.06.

Former Binance CEO Changpeng Zhao (CZ) has denied rumors of any business dealings with the Trump family following his recent presidential pardon. The pardon, granted by Donald Trump, sparked speculation that CZ may have made deals in exchange for leniency. CZ stated that the pardon was unexpected and that he has no business relationship with World Liberty Finance or the Trump family, echoing Trump's own statements. Criticism arose from Binance's involvement with World Liberty Financial (WLFI) and the USD1 stablecoin. Binance reportedly helped develop the smart contract for USD1, and WLFI, allegedly linked to the Trump family, owns a 38% stake in the stablecoin. Despite these claims, CZ expressed a desire to help the U.S. achieve its goal of becoming the crypto capital of the world. His pardon has also fueled speculation that Binance Global might attempt to re-enter the U.S. market, potentially allowing CZ to regain a leadership position in the future.

Oman is launching programs to significantly increase its digital economy's contribution to the country's GDP. The goal is to reach 10% by 2040, up from an expected 3% by the end of this year. The National Digital Economy Programme will focus on digital government, business digitization, and digital society. Oman has already made strides in digital readiness, ranking high in areas like cybersecurity and e-government development, and aims to be in the top 20 globally in these areas. Key initiatives include the National Programme for Artificial Intelligence, which includes AI projects, language models, and data portals. Oman is also establishing an Artificial Intelligence Zone near Muscat International Airport to attract regional AI companies and is promoting sustainable AI investment through the Green AI Alliance. They've also issued a National Policy for the Safe and Ethical Use of AI.

Ethereum's price has pulled back by 12% recently, but is currently holding above a key support level around $3,300. It briefly fell to $3,000 before bouncing back. Analysts suggest that if Ethereum can reclaim $3,600, it could return to a bullish trend and potentially reach $5,000. On-chain data indicates large Ethereum purchases by the company Bitmine Immersion Technologies, accumulating over 744,600 ETH since early October. Technical analysis shows resistance levels at $3,783, $4,231, and $4,549. A cluster of exponential moving averages between $3,833 and $4,011 represents a strong resistance area. There is also a mention of Pepenode (PEPENODE), a meme coin project with a presale underway that has raised over $2.09 million, offering staking yields over 600%.

XRP's price is currently around $2.32 after some large holders sold off 500,000 tokens in a short period, putting pressure on the $2.00 support level. The article mentions that 21Shares filed paperwork for a spot XRP ETF. Ripple has been acquiring companies to enhance the XRP Ledger for institutional use, but Western Union chose Solana over XRP for its stablecoin, impacting potential transaction volume. Technically, XRP is testing a support level of $2.00, and analysts suggest a potential buy signal is developing. Support lies between $2.00 and $2.30, with a possible drop to $1.80-$1.90 if it fails. On the other hand, holding above $2.00 could lead to a recovery towards $2.50-$2.70. The article also discusses a project called Maxi Doge, which combines meme culture with high-leverage futures trading.

Bitcoin is currently trading around $102,001, experiencing a 7.72% drop over the past week. It's testing a key support level around $102,980. If it fails to stay above $103,200 in the next 48 hours, it could fall further to between $90,000 and $98,000. Bitcoin mining companies are under pressure because their revenue has fallen. Some are shifting to focus on artificial intelligence instead. Some large Bitcoin holders are moving their coins to exchanges, which suggests they may be planning to sell. In related news, a new technology called BTC Hyper is being developed to make Bitcoin transactions faster and cheaper, aiming to expand Bitcoin's use in areas like decentralized finance and gaming.

The global money supply has reached a record high of $142 trillion as of September, marking a 6.7% year-over-year increase. This surge is primarily driven by China, the EU, and the United States. The New York Federal Reserve is potentially preparing to end Quantitative Tightening and may resume asset purchases as early as Q1 2026. Experts believe this liquidity surge will flow into risk assets like Bitcoin and crypto, especially as traditional investments stagnate. Despite recent price dips and market anxieties, some analysts suggest this environment is ideal for another speculative surge in digital assets, as bull markets typically end in euphoria, not despair. Capital must find a home, and the global money supply flows may soon ignite a rally in crypto.

Bitcoin's price is having difficulty staying above $102,000 because long-term holders are selling, but there aren't enough new buyers to absorb those sales. Historically, rising demand offset these sell-offs, allowing Bitcoin to reach new highs, but demand has weakened since October 2025. This reduced demand, coupled with continued selling by long-term holders, could delay Bitcoin's next price rally. Spot Bitcoin ETFs, a source of demand, experienced net outflows of $558.44 million on Friday, November 7. If demand doesn't recover while long-term holders keep selling, Bitcoin might stay range bound between $101,000 and $103,000 for the remainder of November. Bitcoin is currently trading at $101,655, a 0.6% decrease in the last 24 hours.

Changpeng Zhao, the founder of Binance, has stated that he has no business connections with Donald Trump or his family, despite receiving a pardon from Trump in October 2025. Zhao had previously pleaded guilty to anti-money-laundering violations and agreed to a $4.3 billion fine, resulting in a four-month jail sentence from which he was released in September 2024. The pardon effectively removes his criminal record. Zhao confirmed in an interview that there were never any discussions or deals between him and the Trump family, including their cryptocurrency project, World Liberty Financial. He also addressed his guilty plea for violating the Bank Secrecy Act by failing to implement sufficient anti-money-laundering measures at Binance. Zhao views the United States as now leading in crypto regulation, citing the GENIUS Act as a positive step and believes the increased regulatory clarity is beneficial for the crypto industry.

The University of Lagos Vice Chancellor, Professor Folasade Ogunsola, advocated for the development of African-native AI solutions to address the continent's specific challenges at the 5th International Conference on Artificial Intelligence and Robotics (MIRG-ICAIR 2025). The conference, themed Building Sustainable AI-Driven Transformation Infrastructures for African Economies, featured participants from various institutions and technology organizations. Professor Ogunsola highlighted the University of Lagos's AI research initiatives, including the launch of the OpenAI Academy for Africa and a forthcoming AI lab donated by the United Nations. The university is also planning a Faculty of Computing and Informatics focused on Africa-oriented technology solutions. Nigeria's Minister of Communications and Digital Economy, represented by Dr. Bunmi Ajala, emphasized AI's role in transforming sectors like agriculture, healthcare, and education. Professor Muhammad Abdul-Mageed of the University of British Columbia urged African researchers to create AI tools reflecting the continent's linguistic and cultural diversity.

Willy Woo believes that Bitcoin faces limited risk of significant liquidations, even in a future bear market. The article focuses on Woo's opinion regarding the potential for a large-scale sell-off due to leveraged positions in Bitcoin futures and other derivatives markets.

Institutional investors are shifting their investments away from Bitcoin, resulting in outflows from Bitcoin investment products. Simultaneously, Ether, Solana, and XRP are attracting significant institutional capital. These three altcoins have collectively garnered $500 million in investment, indicating a growing interest from institutions in cryptocurrencies beyond Bitcoin.

Chainlink is showing signs of a potential price increase, with analysts suggesting it could reach $30. Recently, large investors, known as whales, have bought over 4 million LINK tokens, signaling confidence in the cryptocurrency. Several trading analysts have identified technical patterns that suggest a breakout is possible, potentially leading to a significant price increase. However, the price may encounter resistance at certain levels, and sustained buying interest is needed for it to reach the $30 target. Some analysts suggest Chainlink might first test support levels around $10-$12 before moving higher, while others believe it could break out directly. Overall, the combination of whale accumulation and positive technical indicators points to a possible upward trend for Chainlink, although patience may be required as the situation develops.

Mr. Beast is developing an online banking and cryptocurrency application to combat manipulation in the crypto space, following false allegations against him. This coincides with Pepeto Exchange's Phase 3 launch, aiming to establish a standard for anti-manipulation in crypto by 2026.

Remittix is attracting interest due to its focus on real-world applications, specifically enabling crypto-to-bank transfers in over 30 countries. It has raised over $28.1 million, sold over 684 million tokens, and is testing its wallet globally.

Bitcoin is currently trading around $102,200, consolidating between $100,000 and $103,000. A head-and-shoulders pattern has formed, potentially indicating a future price decrease, and breaking below $100,000 could lead to further drops to $94,000 or even $87,000. Some analysts, like Geoffrey Kendrick from Standard Chartered, suggest that $100,000 might be the lowest Bitcoin will ever go.

Bitcoin experienced a volatile week, twice failing to break through the $104,000 mark and falling below $102,000. It dropped below $100,000 for the first time since June, reaching a low near $99,000 before a rebound. This dip caused Bitcoin's market capitalization to fall to $2.020 trillion and its dominance over altcoins to decrease to below 58%. Most major altcoins followed Bitcoin's downward trend, with Ethereum dropping below $3,400 and XRP falling below $2.30. However, privacy coins ZEC and XMR bucked the trend, experiencing double-digit percentage gains, rising by over 11% and 13% respectively. The total crypto market capitalization decreased by approximately $40 billion, settling at $3.510 trillion.
