Bitcoin's price is currently declining, failing to maintain levels above $96,500 and dropping over 3%. It's trading below $95,000 and the 100-hour simple moving average, with a bearish trend line forming. If Bitcoin doesn't break above the $96,600 resistance, it could fall further, potentially testing support levels at $93,500, $92,500, and even $90,000. Conversely, if it breaks above $96,600, it might face resistance at $97,200, $98,500, and potentially reach $100,500. Key support levels to watch are $92,500 and $90,000, while major resistance levels are $95,500 and $96,600. The MACD is bearish, and the RSI is below 50.

Japan is planning to regulate crypto more like traditional financial products. The Financial Services Agency (FSA) is drafting rules to classify 105 domestic cryptocurrencies, including Bitcoin and Ethereum, as financial products, subjecting them to insider trading laws. Crypto exchanges will need to disclose information about each asset, like its technology and price volatility. This means that people with inside information about crypto companies won't be able to trade on that information before it's public. The FSA also plans to lower the tax on crypto profits from a maximum of 55% to a flat 20%, matching the tax rate for stocks. Banks and insurers may also be able to sell crypto to customers through their securities subsidiaries. The FSA aims to submit the related legislation in the next parliamentary session. Japan Exchange Group is also considering stricter rules for companies shifting into crypto, potentially requiring fresh audits and limiting fundraising.

Franklin Templeton, a large investment firm, is launching an XRP exchange-traded fund (ETF) called EZRP on the CBOE exchange tomorrow. This is happening alongside other XRP ETF launches from companies like Bitwise. Franklin Templeton's entry is significant because they have many connections with financial institutions, potentially leading to substantial investment flows into the ETF. A similar ETF launch last week by Canary Funds saw $58 million in first-day trading volume, and analysts predict Franklin Templeton's EZRP could see between $150 million and $250 million on its first day. Recently, large XRP holders have been moving their XRP off exchanges, which could make the price more volatile. Key price levels to watch for XRP are support at $2.10 and $1.95, and resistance at $2.40 and $2.50. ETF launches typically experience high initial trading volume followed by a decline, so long-term demand is crucial.

Bitcoin is currently trading around the $94K-$97.5K level, near the 61% Fibonacci retracement level, a key area traders watch for potential trend reversals. Despite a small price increase recently, Bitcoin's overall market structure is still considered bearish, meaning it could potentially fall further. Analysts are watching for possible drops to $88K-$84K, or even as low as $77K-$74.5K if selling pressure continues. Recent Bitcoin ETF outflows exceeding $1 billion are contributing to selling pressure. However, the amount of Bitcoin held on exchanges is decreasing, which could signal a potential price recovery if market sentiment shifts. Transaction volume hit $45.6 billion on November 15th, the highest in a month, with over 516,000 BTC moved.

Japan's economy contracted by 1.8% in the third quarter of the year, its first decline in six quarters, primarily due to decreased exports, weak consumer spending, and changes in building regulations. Consumer spending, which makes up over half of Japan's GDP, saw minimal growth as households cut back on expenses due to high living costs and stagnant wages. The government is planning a stimulus package exceeding $110 billion to address rising inflation and support the economy through measures like subsidies and tax breaks, funded by a supplementary budget. The Bank of Japan faces the challenge of managing inflation while supporting economic growth, with policymakers emphasizing caution and a balance between these objectives. Firms are cautious amid economic unease, as trade pressure from overseas has continued unabated.

Princeton Digital Group (PDG) is investing approximately $700 million to build its first data center in South Korea, aiming to support the country's growing AI sector. The initial data center, located in Incheon, will start with a 48-megawatt capacity, eventually expanding to 500 megawatts across multiple locations and is expected to be fully operational by early 2028. This investment is part of a larger plan by PDG to invest $25 billion over the next five years to increase its total capacity from 1.3 gigawatts to over 4 gigawatts across Asia and also seeks to invest $6 billion in South Korea by the end of the decade. The Asia-Pacific region's overall data center capacity is expected to triple to 40 gigawatts by the end of the decade, backed by $300 billion in investments, while South Korea's government is supporting AI technology through investments and policies. Other companies are investing into the region as well such as Amazon.com Inc, who announced in October that it will invest an additional $5 billion in South Korean data centers, bringing the total investment to $9 billion.

Peter Schiff, a well-known gold advocate and crypto critic, has accused Strategy Inc., formerly MicroStrategy, of operating a fraudulent business model based on income-oriented funds buying high-yield preferred shares that he believes will fail to deliver the advertised yields. He predicts a financial collapse for the company as demand for these shares dries up and has challenged Michael Saylor, Strategy's founder, to a public debate at Binance Blockchain Week in Dubai. This challenge comes as Bitcoin's price has declined, while gold prices remain strong. Saylor remains committed to Strategy's Bitcoin-focused strategy, despite skepticism and a decline in the company's stock value, which has dropped more than 50 percent since July. This clash between Schiff and Saylor highlights the ongoing debate between traditional safe-haven assets like gold and the emerging digital currency, Bitcoin, impacting investor sentiment and the future direction of these assets.

XRP's price has fallen below $2.20, currently around $2.17, after large holders sold off nearly 200 million XRP tokens in a short period. This selling activity, which saw over $400 million worth of XRP being moved to exchanges like Binance and Coinbase, has created downward pressure on the price. The price drop occurred shortly after the launch of an XRP ETF which had a high initial trading volume. Some analysts believe this is a temporary shakeout of less patient traders and anticipate a potential rebound, while others are more cautious, pointing to key support levels around $2.10. If this support level breaks, the price could fall further towards $1.90. The future direction of XRP depends on whether the $2.10 support holds, if buying activity returns, and if the demand for the new XRP ETF continues.

Kraken's Co-CEO Arjun Sethi has strongly criticized the UK's regulations on crypto promotions, stating they negatively impact user experience by slowing down transactions and limiting access to services. Sethi likened the risk warnings on UK crypto platforms to cigarette box warnings and noted the additional steps required for transactions make the experience worse for users. The UK's Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) introduced rules in 2023 requiring crypto companies to display prominent risk warnings and questionnaires to assess users' understanding of crypto risks. Kraken claims these rules deny UK users access to over 75% of the products available to their U.S. customers. While the FCA defends the measures as necessary to protect consumers, some industry figures argue the UK's approach is overly rigid and discourages investment. The Bank of England's proposal to cap individual stablecoin holdings has also been criticized for lacking clarity. Despite these regulatory challenges, Kraken recently acquired Small Exchange for $100 million.

Bitcoin's price is struggling around $95,000. One analysis suggests a potential price recovery, noting a continuous increase in stablecoins held on exchanges. Historically, increases in stablecoins have preceded Bitcoin price increases. For example, large increases in stablecoins were observed before Bitcoin's rallies to $110,000 and $126,000. The large amount of stablecoins could fuel another price recovery, potentially triggered by the upcoming Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) meeting in December. However, a different analysis indicates Bitcoin's price falling below its 365-day moving average, which historically suggests a bearish phase and potential drops to $92,000 or $72,000. Bitcoin is currently priced around $96,050, showing no significant change.

Cardano's price has fallen below the $0.50 support level, indicating potential further decline. Technical analysis suggests the next significant support level is around $0.25. On-chain data reveals that large holders, often referred to as whales, have sold off approximately 440 million ADA tokens in the past month, increasing selling pressure. A single wallet recently sold 14.5 million ADA for $850,000, signaling further market weakness. If the price doesn't recover and reclaim $0.60, it could potentially drop to between $0.42 and $0.38, and possibly even to $0.25.

Sui (SUI) is currently trading around $1.75 as of November 16, 2025, and its price is fluctuating within a descending triangle pattern that has been in place for nearly a year. A key support level to watch is around $1.78. Technical analysis suggests that SUI might trade between $1.35 and $2.28 in the near term. A break below $1.71 could lead to a drop towards $1.35, while a strong push above $2.28 could target $2.72. Traders are advised to monitor volume and key indicators like RSI and MACD for potential breakout signals. The coin's price decreased by 0.22% over the last 24 hours. Traders should consider their risk tolerance when deciding whether to buy SUI at its current price.

Ether's price has fallen below $3,100. An investment manager indicated that the market perceives Ether (ETH) as a riskier investment compared to Bitcoin (BTC). This suggests some investors are less confident in Ether's stability or growth potential relative to Bitcoin.

Harvard University significantly increased its investment in Bitcoin by purchasing more shares of BlackRock's Bitcoin ETF (IBIT). Their holdings increased by 257% to 6,813,612 shares, valued at $442.9 million as of September 30th. Simultaneously, Harvard also nearly doubled its investment in gold, increasing its GLD ETF stake by 99% to $235 million. This move by Harvard, a major university endowment, is seen as a sign of growing institutional interest in Bitcoin, even as Bitcoin ETFs experienced large outflows recently. Other large institutions, including Millennium Management, Goldman Sachs, and sovereign wealth funds, have also invested heavily in IBIT. The reasons cited for this increased institutional adoption include the limited supply of Bitcoin, its potential as an inflation hedge, and the increasing regulatory clarity surrounding cryptocurrency investments.

Bitcoin's price recently experienced a 'Death Cross,' a technical pattern where its short-term moving average dipped below its long-term moving average, signaling potential bearish pressure. As of November 16, Bitcoin is trading around $93,646, a level not seen since May. Market sentiment is very fearful, and large holders of Bitcoin have been selling. Historically, a Death Cross doesn't always mean a crash; past occurrences have seen mixed short-term results but stronger recoveries in the medium to long term. Analysts suggest that if Bitcoin doesn't rally within a week, it could fall further before recovering. Key support levels to watch are between $60,000 and $70,000. A sustained move above its 200-day moving average would indicate a bullish reversal. Historically, Bitcoin has shown potential for significant gains within 23 months following a Death Cross.

According to Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, a deal between the U.S. and China concerning rare earth minerals is expected to be finalized before Thanksgiving. This agreement aims to prevent tariffs on Chinese imports and avoid restrictions on rare earth mineral exports, which are critical for U.S. manufacturing, defense, and crypto mining. However, despite this optimism, the agricultural aspect of the trade deal appears to be faltering. USDA data reveals minimal Chinese soybean purchases, totaling 332,000 metric tons since the Trump-Xi meeting, far below the promised 12 million metric tons by January. This shortfall, coupled with a 24% tariff on U.S. soybeans, makes them less attractive compared to supplies from Brazil. Consequently, soybean prices dropped 23 cents to $11.24 per bushel following the report. While President Trump claims China will increase soybean purchases, the lack of concrete numbers has left markets unconvinced, and the possibility of a new aid package for farmers remains uncertain.

Floki's price is currently around $0.00005476, showing a slight decrease of 0.11% over the last 24 hours. The market isn't showing strong buying or selling activity, with trading volume at $36,584,154. The amount of Floki coins in circulation is about 9,657,853,845,848. The price has been fluctuating between $0.0000535 and $0.0000565, indicating stable but low volatility. Technical indicators suggest a slight bearish trend and continued consolidation, suggesting that a significant price move will depend on a strong increase in trading activity rather than just minor fluctuations.

Bitcoin's price is currently fluctuating around $95,000, with analysts observing a potential price target of $101,000 to $103,000. A key area of interest is a gap in Bitcoin futures prices around $92,000, which some analysts believe the price may revisit. Support levels are identified between $88,000 and $90,000. Trading volume remains active, and analysts note that Bitcoin exchange-traded funds continue to see steady demand. The overall market sentiment suggests a possible continuation of the upward trend after a period of correction.

Bitcoin is nearing a "death cross," a technical pattern where the 50-day moving average falls below the 200-day moving average. Historically, death crosses in this market cycle since 2023 have coincided with significant local bottoms, meaning the price has tended to rebound after this pattern appears. Bitcoin is currently down about 25% from its recent peak of approximately $126,000. The current downturn has lasted around 41 days, which is shorter than a previous 79-day drop. Following the U.S. government's reopening on November 12, Bitcoin experienced a roughly 10% price decrease, a pattern similar to what occurred in 2019. Traders are closely monitoring whether Bitcoin will repeat its historical rebound pattern after this drop or if a different market reaction will occur.

Recent data indicates significant activity among large XRP holders, with 716 transactions exceeding $1 million and an accumulation of $768 million worth of XRP over four days. As of November 15, 2025, the price of XRP is around $2.24, showing a slight decrease of 1.61% in the last 24 hours, and the trading volume has decreased by 56.5%. Despite this dip, a TD Buy signal has appeared, potentially indicating a possible rebound. XRP is currently testing support around $2.43 within a descending channel. If it holds this level, it could move upwards towards $2.52, with higher resistance levels possible at $3.66, $4.12, and $4.71. Investors are advised to monitor market movements and regulatory news, as these factors may impact XRP's price.

Ethereum is preparing for the Fusaka upgrade in early December 2025, which aims to improve network efficiency and reduce transaction fees. Recent data shows Ethereum has reached a record of 24,192 transactions per second by combining mainnet and Layer 2 activity. Exchange reserves of Ethereum have decreased to 15.5 million, the lowest in several years. At the time of writing, Ethereum is trading around $3,186. Technical analysis suggests a potential breakout could push Ethereum towards $6,000-$7,000 if it moves above the curved trendline, but this depends on market conditions and increased trading volume. Analysts advise caution and suggest waiting for confirmation signals before making any moves, because the RSI and MACD show weakening upward momentum.

The cryptocurrency Pudgy Penguins (PENGU) is currently trading around $0.0123, nearing multi-month lows and testing a critical support level around $0.012. Analysts are closely watching this level, as it has historically triggered significant price movements. Failure to hold this support could lead to further declines towards $0.010 or $0.008. If the $0.012 level holds, a rebound towards $0.017 or even $0.023 is possible. A move back above $0.015 would signal a potential recovery. The overall outlook remains fragile, with the market driven by selling pressure, but the current support level is considered historically important.

Bitcoin is currently trading around $95,000, experiencing volatility after a previous high of approximately $130,000 in October. Market analysts suggest that Bitcoin needs to either break through the $98,000 resistance level or risks falling to around $90,000. Technical indicators show mixed signals, with potential for a short-term bounce towards $107,000, but also warn of a possible decline. On-chain data indicates increased activity from large Bitcoin holders, which could pressure the market. Traders are advised to watch key support levels, particularly $90,500, as a drop below this could lead to further declines. Conversely, reclaiming $98,000 would signal a potential bullish trend continuation. The market is currently in a cautious state, with investors monitoring these key levels.

Chris Kuiper, VP of Research at Fidelity Digital Assets, discusses in a conversation the often underestimated potential of technological advancements and their capacity to create new industries. He reflects on Bitcoin's underperformance in 2023 and examines current trends related to institutional investment in digital assets.

Avalanche (AVAX) is showing signs of potential price recovery. On-chain data indicates that Avalanche is ranked second in total real-world asset (RWA) value, just below Ethereum, with over $954 million in tokenized assets. The price is currently stabilizing within the $15.0-$15.5 demand zone, which has previously led to rebounds. Technical analysis suggests a possible move towards the $16.8 to $17.5 resistance level if this support holds. A breakout above this level would indicate a shift towards a more positive market structure. Additionally, AVAX dominance is rebounding from a long-term floor, suggesting a potential increase in its market performance. A break above $16.0 would confirm strength. Overall, the combination of growing RWA inflows, stabilizing support levels, and dominance recovery suggests that a recovery phase for AVAX might be forming.

XRP's price has fallen by 3.5% in the last 24 hours, dropping below $2.20. This decline is partly due to large XRP holders, known as whales, selling off about 200 million XRP tokens in a short period. These tokens were transferred to exchanges like Binance and Coinbase, suggesting a potential increase in selling pressure. Despite this, a new XRP ETF (Exchange Traded Fund) launched with $58 million in its first-day trading volume, indicating continued institutional interest. Analysts are watching key price levels, with $2.10 being a critical support level, and a potential further drop to $1.90 if it's breached. Long-term outlooks remain optimistic, with expectations of recovery as traders monitor the $2.10 level. XRP was trading at around 2.17, down 3.57% in the last 24 hours.

The Optimism (OP) market is currently stable, showing neither significant gains nor losses. Open interest, which reflects the total number of outstanding derivative contracts, has flattened, suggesting traders are waiting for a clear market direction before making new investments. OP is trading around $0.39, up 1.15% in the last 24 hours, with a market capitalization of approximately $747.4 million and a circulating supply of about 1.9 billion tokens. Recent trading has been contained between $0.375 and $0.405. Technical indicators suggest reduced volatility, with potential for a directional shift in price. A move above $0.40 would signal a recovery, while failure to hold above $0.34 could lead to further declines.

Dogwifhat (WIF), a meme coin, is currently trading around $0.42, showing a slight 3.29% increase in the last 24 hours. Its market capitalization is approximately $419.7 million, with a trading volume of about $115.7 million. An analyst has identified a descending wedge pattern in WIF's price chart, suggesting a potential breakout. This pattern could lead to a price increase of 130% if confirmed, but it's a conditional outlook. Technical indicators show low volatility and a bearish momentum bias, with key resistance levels around $0.47 and $0.56, and support around $0.381.

Bitcoin's price has been fluctuating recently, trading between $94,000 and $97,500, and is down approximately 7% over the past week and 14% for the month. On November 15th, Bitcoin transaction volume surged to $45.6 billion, the highest in a month. Bitcoin is currently sitting around the 61% Fibonacci retracement level, which traders watch as a potential reaction area. Technical analysis indicates a bearish market structure for Bitcoin, with possible further drops towards $77,000 to $74,500, but a short-term bounce back toward $98,000-$100,000 is also possible. U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs experienced over $1 billion in outflows this week, potentially contributing to selling pressure. Exchange-based Bitcoin reserves have also dropped to multi-month lows. Key support levels to watch are $94,000, $88,000-$84,000, and $77,000-$74,500, while resistance is around $98,000-$100,000. Market analysts suggest a possible downward move before any sustained recovery.

SharpLink Gaming experienced a significant financial turnaround in the third quarter of 2025, reporting a revenue increase of 1,100% to $10.8 million compared to the same period last year. This surge is attributed to the strong performance of its Ethereum (ETH) holdings and strategic deployment within the Ethereum ecosystem. The company's net income reached $104.3 million, a stark contrast to the $885,000 loss in Q3 2024. As of September 30th, SharpLink held $3.0 billion in crypto assets, including 817,747 ETH, which grew to 861,251 ETH by November 9. The company also has $11.1 million in cash and $26.7 million in USDC stablecoins. SharpLink has been actively managing its Ethereum treasury, including a $1.5 billion stock repurchase program, a partnership with Superstate to launch tokenized SBET on Ethereum, and new executive appointments. The company plans to deploy $200 million worth of ETH onto Linea, an Ethereum Layer 2 network, for staking, restaking, and AI-driven yield strategies.

Hyperliquid (HYPE) is currently trading around $37 to $38, a one-week low, and faces potential further decline. There's a significant amount of leveraged long positions that could be liquidated if the price drops to between $20 and $35. Failure to hold the $37 level could lead to a further drop towards $34 to $35. To signal a potential recovery, the price needs to break above $40. A break above $43 to $45 would suggest a stronger upward trend. While the HYPE/USDT pair shows weakness, the HYPE/BTC pair demonstrates strength, holding a support level and attempting to break out of a downtrend. If the price breaks through this trendline against Bitcoin, HYPE could outperform Bitcoin.

Peter Schiff has criticized MicroStrategy (MSTR), calling its business model a fraud and predicting potential bankruptcy due to its reliance on high-yield preferred shares. He believes the company's strategy is unsustainable, even if Bitcoin's price increases. This is due to MSTRs potential inability to make payments based on how it is financed. Other analysts, however, argue that MSTR offers a leveraged way to invest in Bitcoin, potentially outperforming standard Bitcoin ETFs. These analysts contend that MSTR provides not only exposure to Bitcoin's price but also increased Bitcoin holdings per share. MicroStrategy currently holds 641,692 Bitcoins with an average cost of $74,085 per coin. This difference in opinion creates a split in the market with some seeing risks from debt, and others seeing opportunity.

The price of Arbitrum (ARB) has fallen to a 3-month low, currently around $0.24. It's struggling to break above $0.28, and analysts are watching for a potential drop to around $0.22 or even $0.20, where there's significant buying interest. To reverse this downward trend, ARB needs to climb back above $0.27-$0.28. Despite the price drop, Arbitrum's use in real-world asset tokenization is growing, with 780 assets tokenized and over $9 million in live value, suggesting underlying strength in the network. Some analysts suggest that a reversal could occur near the $0.20-$0.21 range, a level where ARB previously found support. If ARB fails to reclaim the $0.27 level, it could fall further, but the increasing real-world asset activity on Arbitrum might provide support if the price stabilizes around $0.20-$0.22.

Bitcoin ETFs experienced significant outflows on November 13th, with $866.7 million withdrawn, marking the second-largest single-day redemption since their launch. Grayscale's Bitcoin Mini Trust and BlackRock's IBIT led the withdrawals. This exodus coincided with Bitcoin's price falling below $100,000 and further dropping to around $94,890. The outflows reflect a broader de-risking trend, with about $2.6 billion pulled from Bitcoin ETFs over three weeks, influenced by expectations of tighter monetary policy from the Federal Reserve. Some investors shifted funds into other crypto assets like XRP and Solana, though the Bitcoin outflows were substantially larger. Despite these redemptions, total assets under management in Bitcoin ETFs remain above $80 billion, and the ETF structure is functioning as designed.

Dogecoin is currently trading around $0.16, with its price stabilizing above a key support level of $0.164. Market analysts suggest that maintaining this level is crucial for preventing further price drops. While some predict Dogecoin could reach $1 if trading interest remains strong, extreme price targets like $3.60 are considered unlikely without significant market events. The price of Dogecoin is influenced by community sentiment and often mirrors the trends of Bitcoin, making it volatile and subject to rapid price swings. Technical indicators show potential for a short-term recovery if Dogecoin breaks above $0.168, but failure to hold above $0.16 could lead to declines. Investors should focus on verifiable trends and consider the risks associated with Dogecoin's volatility, as support below $0.16 is weak, with potential for a drop to $0.073. Ultimately, a combination of technical analysis, trading activity, and market fundamentals will determine Dogecoin's price trajectory.

Stellar (XLM) is currently priced at $0.26, showing a slight decrease of 0.92% over the last 24 hours. Its market capitalization is about $8.3 billion, ranking it 24th overall, with a 24-hour trading volume of approximately $115.8 million. An analyst pointed out that XLM has been trading within a long-term compression pattern since 2018, repeatedly testing a descending resistance line. The price is above its long-term moving average, suggesting continued accumulation. Technical indicators show XLM trading below key resistance levels, with the MACD indicator signaling low market engagement. For a bullish trend to emerge, the price needs to break above the $0.29 level with increased trading volume.

The article provides advice from economist and trader Alex Krger on how to avoid losing money in the cryptocurrency market. The main points include buying during market dips rather than chasing hype, emphasizing that historical data shows greater gains follow periods of market panic. It stresses the importance of patience, noting that long-term Bitcoin holders typically outperform short-term traders, even during downturns. The article cautions against investing in memecoins and newly issued venture capital-backed tokens due to their high volatility, security risks, and potential for scams. Data indicates significant losses from memecoin rug pulls and a large percentage of unaudited new crypto projects. Finally, the article advises avoiding FOMO (fear of missing out) driven investments, as a significant portion of retail traders have lost money due to impulsive buying. Overall, the piece advocates for a disciplined, patient approach focused on risk management rather than chasing quick profits.

Bitcoin's price fell below $94,000, a drop of over 2% in 24 hours. This decline coincided with news that U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent anticipates a trade deal with China by Thanksgiving (November 27). The announcement injected uncertainty into markets. Over $100 million in crypto long positions were liquidated in a short period. Analysts point to the potential trade deal as a factor influencing Bitcoin's price, noting that similar events, such as the end of a U.S. government shutdown, have previously impacted the market. The timing of the potential deal near the Thanksgiving holiday, which typically sees lower trading volumes, could amplify market volatility. A completed trade deal might stabilize risk sentiment and help Bitcoin recover, while any signs of delays or further trade tensions could lead to further price drops.

BNB's price is holding steady with controlled price swings, suggesting that market participants are carefully watching key price levels rather than making risky bets. Against Bitcoin, BNB has shown strength, staying above 0.0085 BTC and forming higher lows since November. It's approaching resistance around 0.0098-0.0100 BTC, where profit-taking might occur. Bullish momentum is showing signs of recovery, with trading volume remaining consistent. BNB is currently priced at approximately $928.74, up 0.58% in the last 24 hours, with a market capitalization near $128,194,021,590 and a circulating supply of 137,736,994 coins. Recent trading has seen price fluctuations between $915 and $955. Technical indicators suggest a stabilization phase, trading near $935, and below the 20-day basis level at $999, which acts as resistance. Volatility is cooling, and while bearish momentum is fading, a confirmed recovery depends on breaking above key resistance levels.

Tom Lee suggests that the recent drop in Bitcoin's price is due to a temporary issue related to market maker activity. He believes this doesn't signal a fundamental shift in the market. He also states that the trend for Ethereum remains unchanged, implying its market outlook is still positive despite Bitcoin's recent downturn.

Japan is implementing a 17 trillion stimulus plan. This large injection of money into the Japanese economy is expected to have significant effects on global financial markets. The stimulus could cause shifts in where investment money flows around the world, impacting the availability of funds in different markets.

Arthur Hayes, a well-known figure in the cryptocurrency world, has recently sold off portions of his holdings in several cryptocurrencies, including Ethereum (ETH), Ethena (ENA), and Aave (AAVE). This selling activity occurred during a downturn in the crypto market. The article directly reports Hayes sold these assets; specific quantities or financial details are not provided.

Prosecutors are arguing that a judge should not acquit Roman Storm, a developer of the cryptocurrency mixing service Tornado Cash. The government's stance is that Storm should be held accountable for his role in creating and maintaining the platform, which allegedly facilitated money laundering. The prosecutors believe there is sufficient evidence to proceed with the case and reject Storm's defense arguments for acquittal. The core of the issue revolves around whether Storm's involvement in Tornado Cash constitutes criminal activity, given the platform's use by illicit actors.

Bitcoin's price has dropped below $94,000, marking its lowest level since May. This decline coincides with a period of 'extreme fear' sentiment in the cryptocurrency market, indicating widespread concern among investors.

The price of HBAR is currently holding near a support zone, showing signs of ongoing selling pressure and limited bullish momentum. The broader trend remains downward, with the price oscillating around $0.153-$0.156. Market data indicates a 2.05% decline in the past 24 hours, with a market capitalization of $6,503,856,472 and a 24-hour trading volume of $189,743,069. The price is trading within a narrow range of $0.151 and $0.154. Technical indicators suggest sustained downward bias, with the price positioned close to the lower Bollinger Band at $0.14694 and below the basis line at $0.17855. The MACD indicator reflects ongoing negative momentum, signaling controlled selling pressure.

The cryptocurrency ASTER has broken out of a falling wedge pattern, increasing over 8% today and 12% this past week. However, there are warning signs suggesting a potential pullback. Specifically, there are two momentum divergences indicated by the Relative Strength Index (RSI) and the Money Flow Index (MFI), suggesting weakening buying pressure. Furthermore, a large amount of leveraged long positions on Binance, totaling $25.86 million compared to $6.06 million in short positions, creates a risk of rapid price decline if liquidations are triggered. The article identifies $1.28 as a key price level; closing above this level would negate the bearish divergences and confirm a stronger uptrend toward $1.59. Conversely, failure to hold $1.09 could lead to a drop toward $0.99, potentially accelerating the decline due to the concentration of long liquidations at that level.

Bitcoin's price fell to approximately $93,657, experiencing its biggest drop since May. This decline is attributed to investors reducing risk before the US futures market opened and reduced expectations of a December interest rate cut by the Federal Reserve to 44%. Technical indicators also point towards a possible 'death cross,' suggesting a potential downward trend in Bitcoin's price.

South Korea and the U.S. have finalized a trade deal where South Korea will invest $350 billion in the U.S. in exchange for reduced tariffs on Korean exports, dropping from 25% to 15%. Hyundai has pledged $86 billion by 2030, focusing on areas like AI, robotics, and U.S. parts relief, with over half the money going to new technologies. They are also planning a robot factory and AI data center with Nvidia's help. Other Korean companies like Samsung, SK Group, LG, and Hanwha are also making significant investments in areas like chip production, AI, and shipbuilding. Samsung committed $310 billion, SK Group $600 billion, LG $100 billion, and Hanwha $11 billion domestically. The trade deal stipulates that investment funds must be deposited quickly and that the U.S. gets most of the profit after the initial investment is repaid.

Solana's price fluctuated between $135 and $143 today, with analysts watching a long-term trendline from 2020 to see if it will continue to support the price during pullbacks. This trendline has historically acted as a support level, attracting buyers during market corrections. The price is currently pulling back from a resistance area, leading analysts to focus on whether the trendline near the $130 level will hold. A bounce from this level could lead to a move towards the $300-$400 resistance band. If the price breaks below the trendline, it could signal a change in the existing upward trend. Traders are monitoring the daily chart for confirmation, along with broader market movements in assets like Bitcoin and Ethereum, to determine Solana's next direction.

Metaplanet, a company investing in Bitcoin, has stated it will continue its active Bitcoin acquisition strategy despite the increasing availability of Bitcoin ETFs. The company believes its approach provides unique value compared to passively holding Bitcoin through ETFs. They suggest their methods offer advantages that ETFs cannot replicate, implying a continued commitment to direct Bitcoin investment despite the potential competition from these investment funds.

Australia is pushing the U.S. to remove all tariffs after President Trump rolled back tariffs on over 200 food imports, including beef. Australia, the largest exporter of beef to the U.S. since 2024, with over A$4 billion in annual exports, wants the U.S. to eliminate tariffs on steel and aluminum as well. India is also expecting benefits from Trump's rollback on agricultural exports like tea, coffee, and spices, with an estimated $2.5 billion to $3 billion in goods now exempted. However, some analysts believe the benefits for India will be modest, with Latin American, African, and ASEAN nations potentially benefiting more. There is also confusion in India regarding whether the rollback covers 25% or 50% tariffs.

A report by Aleo highlights the growing importance of privacy in stablecoin transactions as institutional adoption increases. Currently, only a tiny fraction (0.0013%) of institutional stablecoin flows utilize privacy measures, leaving institutions vulnerable to surveillance. With nearly $1.25 trillion in stablecoin transaction volume recorded last month, the lack of privacy exposes institutions' trading strategies, liquidity patterns, and relationships to competitors, third parties, and malicious actors. This transparency allows for potential front-running and market manipulation. Aleo suggests that embracing privacy infrastructure is crucial for institutions to secure their on-chain activities, predicting a potential shift of $1 billion to $2.5 billion into private settlements as compliant privacy solutions emerge.

Tom Lee from Fundstrat believes Ethereum could follow a similar growth pattern to Bitcoin, which has increased nearly 100 times since 2017. Lee emphasizes that significant gains require enduring market downturns and volatility. He advises against using leverage due to the risk of high volatility. Bitcoin's market capitalization is approximately $1.91 trillion, while the broader cryptocurrency market is at $3.23 trillion. Fundstrat sees Ethereum entering its own growth phase, expecting volatility along the way. Bitwise CEO Hunter Horsley points out that Bitcoin's $1.9 trillion market cap is small compared to global assets like equities, fixed income, real estate, and gold. He suggests even small shifts of investment from these assets into Bitcoin could greatly increase its value. Horsley also discusses Bitcoin's cyclical nature, suggesting potential selling in 2025 could lead to a strong bullish phase in 2026. Year-to-date, Bitcoin is up 2.5% in 2025.

Solana's price is at a critical juncture around $150, facing a potential breakout or a deeper decline. Despite a generally bullish long-term pattern, short-term price dips are possible. A significant amount of selling orders is clustered around the $150 mark, acting as resistance. On-chain data indicates a lack of strong buyer support below $144, meaning a drop below this level could lead to a steeper price decrease. If selling continues and Solana fails to break above the $160-$177 range, a drop towards $95 is possible. The immediate price action between $144 and $150 will determine whether Solana stabilizes or retraces further.

Reports indicate that some of the earliest and largest Bitcoin holders, often called 'OG Bitcoin Whales,' are selling off portions of their Bitcoin holdings. However, the key detail is that this selling activity doesn't necessarily signal a loss of confidence in Bitcoin's long-term value. The reason for this is not specified in the document, and further research is needed to understand the reasons.

The article discusses RealFi, which refers to the integration of real-world assets and traditional finance mechanisms into the decentralized finance (DeFi) space. Charles Hoskinson, the founder of Cardano, is reportedly enthusiastic about RealFi's potential. The article does not specify financial data, market impacts, or the precise reasons for Hoskinson's excitement, it focuses on the concept of bridging traditional finance with blockchain technology.

Bitcoin is nearing a 'death cross,' a technical pattern that occurs when its 50-day moving average crosses below its 200-day moving average. This event is often interpreted as a bearish signal, indicating potential further price declines. The market is currently testing a historically significant pattern, suggesting a crucial juncture for Bitcoin's price movement.

An individual or group known for developing a Bitcoin model with a history of accurate predictions has released a forecast for the cryptocurrency market in the short term. The specific prediction involves a projected price point or market trend expected to occur soon.

ADA and XRP are experiencing price drops due to large-scale selling by wealthy investors, known as whales. Over the past month, Cardano whales sold 440 million ADA, causing its price to fall over 23%, with a 5.5% decrease on Sunday alone, bringing it below $0.48. For XRP, whales have been selling for over a month, including 200 million tokens in the last 48 hours, impacting its price, which fell 4% on Sunday and trades below $2.20. Despite the price decreases, there's a signal that ADA may be due for a rebound, and XRP saw a spike in large transactions, the highest in four months, potentially linked to the launch of a spot XRP ETF.

Between late August and early October, Donald Trump's financial disclosures revealed purchases of over $82 million in corporate and municipal bonds. The filings showed over 175 individual transactions, potentially reaching a total value of $337 million. These bonds included investments in state, city, and county debt, as well as bonds from companies in the banking, technology, and retail sectors, including Meta, Intel, Broadcom, Qualcomm, CVS Health, Home Depot, Goldman Sachs, and Morgan Stanley. Notably, Trump purchased bonds from JPMorgan around the same time he requested the Justice Department investigate the bank. A previous filing from August showed Trump had already invested over $100 million in bonds since January. Trump's June disclosure indicated he earned over $600 million from crypto, golf courses, and licensing deals. His total assets were estimated to be at least $1.6 billion.

Charles Hoskinson, a key figure in Cardano, has identified three areas he believes will significantly boost Cardano's scalability and potential. These areas are focused on improving the network's capacity to handle more transactions and users efficiently. The announcement suggests advancements are being made to allow Cardano to process higher volumes of activity, possibly leading to increased adoption and utility of the Cardano blockchain.

Tom Lee, a market analyst, has stated that Ether (ETH), the cryptocurrency associated with the Ethereum blockchain, is potentially entering a phase similar to Bitcoin's past 'supercycle,' suggesting a period of significant price increases. However, this prediction is facing criticism from other analysts and experts in the cryptocurrency market. The article highlights the differing opinions on the future performance of Ether, specifically regarding whether it will experience a substantial and sustained upward trend.

Bitcoin experienced a significant drop this week, causing the Crypto Fear & Greed Index to fall to a level indicating extreme fear among investors. This has led to debate on whether the current downturn signifies the end of the bull run or is simply a correction within a larger upward trend. Veteran market analyst Ran Neuner argues that the bull market isn't over, pointing out that past market collapses were triggered by systemic failures or a complete loss of faith in the asset class, neither of which he sees happening now. Binance CEO Changpeng Zhao advised investors not to panic, reminding them that dips are a normal part of market cycles. Despite the price drop, some analysts highlight positive factors such as governments exploring or adopting Bitcoin and institutions integrating blockchains, alongside strong global stock markets and supportive liquidity conditions. Bitcoin is currently trading at $95,301, down 6% over the past week.

The launch of Canary Capital's XRP ETF, named XRPC, saw $59 million in first-day trading volume, surpassing Bitwise's BSOL and becoming the biggest ETF launch of the year. This has led analysts to re-evaluate XRP's potential, with some suggesting a $10 price target within three to four years is now achievable. The ETF's success indicates institutional investors are viewing XRP as a payment rail rather than a speculative asset, potentially driving demand beyond speculative trading cycles. This shift is expected to benefit ecosystems built on the XRP Ledger, such as XRP Tundra, as institutional adoption increases. XRP Tundra, which operates on both the XRP Ledger and Solana, is gaining attention. Its dual-token model, separating utility and governance, is designed to appeal to institutional investors. The project emphasizes transparency through audits and KYC verification and is currently in Phase 11 of its presale.

Harvard University significantly increased its investment in BlackRock's Bitcoin ETF (IBIT) during the third quarter, boosting its holdings by 257% to approximately $443 million as of September 30. This makes BlackRock's IBIT the university's largest single investment among its reported holdings, positioning Harvard as the 16th-largest holder of IBIT shares. While this Bitcoin ETF stake is a small fraction of Harvard's total $57 billion endowment, it signifies growing institutional adoption of Bitcoin. However, recent market data indicates a decline in investor demand for US-based Bitcoin ETFs, with BlackRock's IBIT experiencing outflows, including a $463.1 million outflow on Friday, November 14. Despite these outflows, BlackRock's IBIT remains the largest spot Bitcoin ETF, with net assets around $74.98 billion.

Bitcoin's price dropped to $94,000 after trading near $97,000 earlier in the day, marking the second time it has tested this support level since Friday. Over the past 72 hours, approximately $1 billion worth of Bitcoin has been deposited onto crypto exchanges. These large transfers often precede sell-offs, contributing to the downward price pressure. Overall, Bitcoin has fallen by $13,000 since Tuesday. Despite positive news regarding a potential US-China trade deal by Thanksgiving, the cryptocurrency's price continues to decline, with market sentiment remaining bearish.

Arthur Hayes, former CEO of BitMEX, sold off a significant amount of his crypto holdings on November 16, including 260 ETH, 2.4 million ENA, 640,000 LDO, 1,630 AAVE, and 28,670 UNI. Prior to that, he also sold 520 ETH, 2.62 million ENA, and 132,730 ETHFI. These moves, totaling millions of dollars, coincide with a general downturn in the altcoin market where only about 5% of major altcoins are currently profitable, according to Glassnode data. Nic Carter from Castle Island Ventures suggests that the crypto market is suffering from a lack of attention, with investors shifting focus to areas like AI and quantum technology. The article emphasizes that the crypto market's future success depends on delivering real-world utility rather than relying on hype and past cycles. It suggests investors should focus on utility and demand before making decisions.

Michael Saylor has indicated that a significant Bitcoin purchase will be made tomorrow. While the exact amount of the purchase wasn't specified, the announcement suggests that MicroStrategy, or another entity associated with Saylor, is preparing to invest a substantial sum into Bitcoin. This news could potentially influence Bitcoin's price depending on the size of the purchase.

XRP's price is currently in a downtrend, facing resistance around $2.45-$2.55. A break above $2.6 could signal a bullish reversal targeting $2.8-$3.1. Failure to break this level could lead to a retest of the $2.2-$2.3 support zone. A drop below the $2.05-$2.15 support could trigger a deeper decline towards $1.75. The price is compressing, suggesting a potential large move depending on whether it breaks the descending trendline upwards or falls below the key support level.

Google's CEO Sundar Pichai responded to speculation on Polymarket, a prediction market platform, regarding the launch of Google's new language model, Gemini 3. Traders on Polymarket are estimating a 69% chance of a November 22 launch. Polymarket, valued at $9 billion after a recent $2 billion investment from Intercontinental Exchange (ICE), allows users to bet on real-world events using cryptocurrency. Google Finance will soon display data from Polymarket and Kalshi, giving users access to market-based probabilities. Pichai's response to the Gemini 3 speculation was brief, posting two thinking face emojis on X. The launch of Gemini 3 is significant for Google as it aims to compete with other AI leaders like OpenAI. There are questions about the reliability of prediction markets and their vulnerability to manipulation through large trades by influential figures.

Ethereum is currently trading within a downtrend, facing resistance from its 100-day and 200-day moving averages. The price has stabilized around the $3,000-$3,100 range, a historically significant buying area. To shift the market structure from bearish to potentially bullish, Ethereum needs to reclaim the $3,450-$3,550 level. Failure to do so could lead to a further drop towards $2,600. Overcoming the $3,450 level would open the way for recovery. There's significant liquidation interest between $3,600 and $3,900, which could attract the price upwards if momentum shifts. The market could experience short-lived drops due to thinner liquidity below the current price.

Berkshire Hathaway's latest filing revealed a new $4.9 billion position in Alphabet (Google), consisting of 17.8 million Class A shares, leading to a 3.5% surge in Alphabet's after-hours trading. This investment, made during a quarter where Alphabet's stock already increased by 37%, was likely not initiated by Warren Buffett. The filing also showed a reduction in Berkshire's Apple holdings by 15%, amounting to $10.6 billion, leaving 238 million shares valued at $64.9 billion or 21% of the portfolio and still its largest equity holding. The company also reduced its Bank of America position by 6.1%, or $1.9 billion, leaving 568 million shares worth $29.9 billion. Warren Buffett's annual Thanksgiving letter announced Greg Abel will take over writing to shareholders and handling questions at the annual meeting next year, and that Berkshire will increase gifts to the foundations run by his three children to $1.3 billion.

Recently released documents from the U.S. Oversight Committee reveal that Tether co-founder Brock Pierce and former U.S. Treasury Secretary Larry Summers discussed Bitcoin at Jeffrey Epstein's Manhattan townhouse after Epstein's 2008 conviction. The conversation, which likely took place after 2011, followed a scientific conference hosted by Epstein. During the discussion, Pierce advocated for Bitcoin, while Summers expressed interest but was concerned about potential reputational damage due to Bitcoin's volatility. Others present included PayPal co-founder Peter Thiel, who had invested in Bitcoin in 2014. While Pierce claims his interactions with Epstein were solely related to Bitcoin, emails suggest Epstein may have had a larger role in Pierce's business ventures.

Cardano (ADA) has declined about 10% in the last week but has maintained support within a bullish falling wedge pattern, suggesting buyers are actively defending against further drops. Large wallet activity, as indicated by the Chaikin Money Flow (CMF), is showing renewed inflows, which often precedes rebound attempts. The derivatives market is heavily skewed towards short positions, with $93.15 million in short exposure compared to only $24.46 million in long positions. A price increase of roughly 2% to $0.51 could trigger a short squeeze, potentially leading to a more substantial price increase. A break above the $0.64 level would signal a full breakout attempt, while a drop below $0.49 would invalidate the bullish pattern.

The crypto market is seeing a lot of activity as Q4 2025 approaches, with investors looking for projects that offer real-world use and long-term value. LivLive ($LIVE) is a new project attracting attention because it rewards users with tokens for everyday activities like walking and shopping. The project has already raised over $2.1 million in its presale, with the current price at $0.04 and an expected launch price of $0.25. LivLive is offering bonus codes, EARLY100 for a 100% bonus on investments up to $2,000 and BOOST200 for a 200% bonus on investments of $2,000 or more, for early investors. Starknet (STRK) is currently trading at $0.1555, with a market cap of $709.5 million and a daily trading volume of $307.16 million. World Liberty Financial (WLF) is trading at $0.1423, with a market cap of $3.49 billion and a daily trading volume of $223.68 million. The article suggests that LivLive's system of rewarding real-world actions with tokens could give it a strong position in the market.

Dogecoin and Shiba Inu investors are reportedly shifting funds into Ozak AI, seeking higher returns. While DOGE and SHIB had significant gains in the past, their current market sizes may limit future growth potential. Ozak AI, priced at $0.012 in its presale, is presented as an opportunity for substantial gains, potentially 80x to 100x, due to its AI prediction agents which analyze blockchain data and execute on-chain actions. Ozak AI has raised over $4.5 million in its presale, sold over 1 billion tokens, and has partnerships with Perceptron Network, HIVE, and SINTA. Analysts suggest Ozak AI could reach $1 by 2026, offering a greater return on investment compared to Dogecoin and Shiba Inu.

Harvard University significantly increased its investment in Bitcoin during the third quarter of 2025, raising its holdings in the iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT) to approximately $443 million. Emory University also increased its crypto investments, holding around $52 million in Grayscale's Bitcoin Mini Trust. These moves occurred even as spot Bitcoin ETFs experienced outflows exceeding $1.3 billion and Bitcoin's price dropped from about $107,000 to under $95,000. MicroStrategy confirmed it has not sold its 47,000 Bitcoin holdings. The data suggests a difference of opinion in the market, where some investors are selling off Bitcoin, while big institutions are increasing their holdings for the long term.

Cardano (ADA) and Sui (SUI) are experiencing significant sell pressure as investors shift towards newer projects. Opter, a decentralized perpetuals exchange, is gaining attention with its OPTER token priced at $0.02 in its initial presale stage. Traders are moving away from ADA and SUI due to limited short-term growth catalysts and are attracted to Opter's self-custody, transparency, and on-chain settlement features, aligning with the growing popularity of perpetual futures trading. Opter's presale allows users to directly purchase OPTER tokens or earn them through trading activity, with a total of 400 million tokens allocated for the presale. The platform's utility, presale structure, and positioning in the derivatives market contribute to its increasing momentum. As ADA and SUI weaken, Opter gains traction through its live decentralized perpetuals exchange, limited token supply, and buyback mechanisms.

Bitcoin's price is hovering around $95,076, showing little movement in the last 24 hours. An analyst, Burak Kesmeci, suggests that Bitcoin may be showing signs of a potential price rebound, citing a technical indicator called the Bitcoin fear (VIX) score. This indicator suggests a possible buying opportunity as it has been above a crucial level for the first time in 250 days. However, the analyst also cautions that this signal doesn't guarantee a price increase. He points out that if Bitcoin falls below $95,000, it could drop to $85,000 quickly. Conversely, if Bitcoin holds above $95,000, it could potentially rally towards $110,000.

Belarus is prioritizing cryptocurrency mining to reduce its dependence on the US dollar. President Lukashenko has instructed government agencies to develop plans for expanding mining operations, potentially including the creation of state-held crypto reserves if profitable. This initiative is driven by surplus electricity from the Ostrovets nuclear plant, which provides roughly 40% of the nation's electricity. Belarus is also developing a central bank digital currency (CBDC), with a phased rollout planned for late 2026, starting with businesses. This CBDC project is closely coordinated with Russia's CBDC development. While encouraging mining, the government is also working on stricter regulations for crypto platforms to prevent fraud and capital flight. The National Bank is sequencing the CBDC rollout, coordinating with regional partners, and implementing tighter reporting requirements for crypto firms.

The cryptocurrency market is experiencing a downturn with the total market capitalization dropping to $3.23 trillion. Bitcoin is at $95,381 and Ethereum is at $3,154, with most major cryptocurrencies showing weak momentum and slight price changes. Altcoins like XRP ($2.21), BNB ($933), and Solana ($139) are also struggling to maintain gains. BitMine Chairman Tom Lee believes this drop is due to financial difficulties of large market makers potentially manipulating prices to trigger liquidations. He advises against using leverage currently, but anticipates stability and recovery within six to eight weeks.

Following the launch of an XRP ETF, Canary Capital CEO Steven McClurg stated that XRP shouldn't be compared directly to Bitcoin or Ethereum. He emphasizes XRP Ledger's purpose as a global financial network for fast and low-cost money transfers, addressing high fees (8%-15%) impacting remittances for foreign workers. McClurg acknowledges debates around XRP's centralization, responding that some centralization can offer user-friendliness, especially for users sending smaller amounts of money. While recognizing the growth of stablecoins, he highlights network fees and congestion issues on some blockchains. Ripple has introduced RLUSD, a stablecoin on the XRP Ledger, designed for faster and cheaper transactions. McClurg concludes that XRP's value lies in its utility for safe, quick, and affordable global money movement.

Zcash (ZEC) has experienced a price increase, outperforming much of the crypto market recently. The article suggests that if Zcash's price breaks above the $748 level, it could potentially rise to $1,010 or even $1,332, aligning with Fibonacci zones and its three-month upward trend. This breakout needs confirmation through increased buying volume, as indicated by the On-Balance Volume (OBV) indicator breaking a descending trendline, and strong inflows from larger holders, as signaled by the Chaikin Money Flow (CMF) exceeding 0.14. Conversely, a drop below $488 would weaken the bullish outlook and could lead to a price decline toward $421.

The cryptocurrency market is currently experiencing a downturn, contrasting with the upward trend of US equities. Bitcoin's recent performance has been weak, failing to sustain rebounds and trading around $95,000, a six-month low. According to a report by Bybit and Block Scholes, this decline began in early October and led to significant liquidations, resulting in continued low open interest, signaling investor caution. While traditional markets rallied after the end of the government shutdown, cryptocurrencies struggle to regain confidence. Altcoins also show weakness, remaining below previous levels. Derivatives trading reflects this caution, with high volatility and strong demand for put options. Funding rates are mixed for large-cap assets and mostly negative for altcoins, suggesting participants are hesitant to take on new long positions.

The crypto community is debating whether to sell XRP and buy Zcash (ZEC). XRP holders are expressing frustration with slow price movement, despite real-world progress. Zcash has gained renewed interest after former BitMEX CEO Arthur Hayes suggested it could be significantly undervalued due to its strong privacy features. XRP is known for its focus on global payments and connections with banks, offering more stability but slower potential growth. Zcash prioritizes user privacy, has a smaller community, and experiences more price volatility, offering potentially higher gains but also greater risk. The decision to switch depends on an investor's risk tolerance and investment goals. Some prefer XRP's stability and focus on real-world applications, while others are drawn to Zcash's potential for higher returns driven by increasing demand for privacy.

Bitcoin's price slightly increased by 0.04% to around $95,648, while Ethereum saw a small gain of 0.16%, hovering near $3,168. Robert Kiyosaki, the author of Rich Dad Poor Dad, stated he would not sell his Bitcoin or gold, despite market declines, attributing market crashes to a global cash shortage. He anticipates governments resorting to heavy money creation and plans to buy more Bitcoin after the crash, emphasizing its limited supply. Bitcoin has fallen below its short-term trend line and the 200-day moving average, potentially signaling further price drops. Ethereum is down 18.5% over the past month and 5.2% this week, with on-chain data indicating reduced profit-taking. The Ethereum market is split between caution and conviction, with its short-term trend pointing downwards and a potential drop to the $3,105-$3,110 support zone.

Bitcoin, now worth over $2 trillion, faces a challenge in attracting Gen-Z, who may not connect with its original anti-establishment narrative due to their different economic realities and preferences for community-driven tokens and projects. The article highlights that while Bitcoin has gained institutional acceptance, it needs to revitalize its message and emphasize its utility, such as privacy, self-custody, and censorship resistance, to resonate with younger users. Ownership of crypto among Gen-Z is growing, but Bitcoin's audience skews older, wealthier, and mostly male. The article suggests focusing on Bitcoin's utility, such as its role in international remittances, and refreshing its narrative to highlight its human utility beyond just being a store of value.

The newly launched Canary Capital XRP ETF (XRPC) experienced significant trading volume on its first day, reaching over $57 million. This debut surpassed the previous record held by the Bitwise Solana ETF for the highest first-day trading volume among spot crypto ETFs this year. The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) is expected to expedite decisions on pending XRP ETF applications, potentially leading to more XRP ETFs entering the market soon. Several firms, including Canary Capital, Franklin Templeton, ProShares, 21Shares, and Bitwise, have XRP ETF applications awaiting SEC approval. Despite positive ETF developments, XRP's price has recently decreased, and it remains to be seen whether ETF approvals will trigger a substantial price recovery, as Solana's experience shows that ETF inflows may not always offset broader market pressures.

Changpeng Zhao's lawyer is disputing claims that his presidential pardon from Donald Trump was obtained through corrupt means. The pardon, granted after Zhao pleaded guilty to anti-money laundering violations and paid $50 million, has drawn criticism from Democratic lawmakers who allege a link between Binance's business dealings with Trump's family crypto venture and the pardon. The lawyer argues the prosecution was unwarranted and refutes claims that Binance's involvement with World Liberty Financial's USD1 stablecoin and a $2 billion investment were evidence of a quid pro quo. Democratic senators have demanded an investigation into the pardon, raising concerns about its impact on future white-collar prosecutions, and a representative plans to introduce legislation restricting elected officials' cryptocurrency involvement. Trump claims he doesn't know Zhao but characterized the prosecution as politically motivated. Zhao has expressed gratitude for the pardon, and Binance is exploring re-entering the US market.

The Scaramucci family, led by Anthony and AJ Scaramucci, invested over $100 million into American Bitcoin, a Bitcoin mining company co-founded by Eric Trump and backed by Donald Trump Jr. This investment occurred despite Anthony Scaramucci's past political disagreements with Donald Trump. Solari Capital, founded by AJ Scaramucci, led a $220 million funding round for American Bitcoin prior to it becoming public through a reverse merger. Other investors include Tony Robbins and Charles Hoskinson. American Bitcoin's strategy involves both mining Bitcoin and purchasing it on the open market. As of early November 2025, American Bitcoin holds 4,004 BTC, valued at approximately $415 million, ranking it as the 25th largest corporate Bitcoin holder. This investment comes at a time when the Bitcoin mining industry faces challenges due to declining profitability, with some miners shifting towards artificial intelligence infrastructure.

Foreign investors have significantly increased their investments in Chinese stocks and Hong Kong equities, reaching $50.6 billion between January and October 2025, a substantial increase from $11.4 billion during the same period last year. This renewed interest is driven by attractive valuations in sectors like artificial intelligence, semiconductors, and next-generation technology, particularly in Hong Kong's IPO market. The Chinese government has also facilitated this inflow by easing regulations and increasing quotas for foreign investors, while Hong Kong is improving its regulatory clarity. However, much of the investment comes from passive investment vehicles like ETFs, as active fund managers remain cautious due to concerns about China's economy, regulations, and demographics. Despite the increased investment, analysts warn of risks, including weak property demand, deflationary pressures, regulatory uncertainties, and geopolitical tensions. Domestic investors, particularly retail investors, also play a major role in China's stock market, supported by significant excess savings and a shift from low bond yields to equities. Institutional investors are expected to further increase their equity holdings in the long term.

Litecoin's price increased by over 10% in the last 24 hours, and roughly 5.89% over the last week, reaching around $105.45. Trading volume also jumped by 14.4% to $1.34 billion, pushing Litecoin's market capitalization to $8.06 billion. Litecoin is currently consolidating within a range on the weekly chart, with potential support around $88. A symmetrical triangle pattern suggests a possible future breakout, with a long-term price target potentially reaching $636.

South Korean cryptocurrency exchanges like Upbit and Bithumb are experiencing decreased profits due to a decline in trading activity. This follows a profitable third quarter driven by rising crypto prices. Upbit's operating profits in the third quarter were 235.3 billion won, up 180% year-over-year, while Bithumb's increased eightfold to 70.1 billion won. However, Bitcoin's price has fallen significantly, and overall trading volumes on Upbit and Bithumb have dropped to their lowest levels this year, averaging $1.88 billion daily from November 1st. Because trading fees make up most of their revenue, the exchanges are trying to attract investors by listing new digital assets; the top five exchanges listed 391 tokens so far this year, a 47% increase from last year. Industry experts say that exchanges need to diversify their revenue streams to avoid being so heavily impacted by market volatility, and regulatory changes are needed to allow for business diversification.

Eric Trump predicts Bitcoin will surpass gold as the superior asset, citing its fixed supply and increasing institutional adoption. He envisions Bitcoin reaching $1 million per coin, emphasizing its faster and cheaper value transfer capabilities compared to gold. Trump frames Bitcoin as a hedge against inflation, corruption, and poor monetary policy, contributing to its global popularity. American Bitcoin (ABTC), co-founded by Eric and Donald Trump Jr., has rapidly grown after merging with Gryphon Digital Mining, becoming a significant public holder of Bitcoin in the US, benefiting from low energy costs in West Texas. However, analysts caution about the volatility of crypto markets impacting mining firms' earnings and asset values, as well as potential conflicts of interest due to executives benefiting from Bitcoin's rise. While Bitcoin has existed since 2009, its rapid price fluctuations differ from gold's centuries-long history as a store of value. Ultimately, the market will determine whether capital shifts from gold to Bitcoin as Eric Trump forecasts.

OKX CEO Star Xu is offering 10 Bitcoin, worth approximately $954,320, to anyone who can prove the existence of a backdoor in the OKX DeFi wallet. This challenge comes after an online claim by an employee of hardware wallet firm OneKey who alleged the wallet has a backdoor that could allow private keys to be stolen. The CEO has publicly invited scrutiny from the crypto community, emphasizing the company's commitment to security and transparency. In related news, OKX has launched a decentralized exchange (DEX) trading feature within its mobile app, allowing users to trade tokens on Solana, Base, and the X Layer network. OKX, which ranks as the fifth-largest crypto exchange, aims to provide a seamless trading experience by integrating centralized and decentralized finance through its CeDeFi program, boasting 60 million users and over 5 million DeFi wallet users.

Steak n Shake is implementing a Bitcoin-related strategy that is expected to drive faster sales growth in the third quarter. The specifics of the Bitcoin strategy are not detailed in this summary, but the core takeaway is its anticipated positive impact on the restaurant chain's revenue during this period.

XRP's price is currently $2.24, a slight decrease of 0.70% over the last 24 hours, maintaining its position as the fourth-largest cryptocurrency with a market capitalization of $134.7 billion. The SEC is considering accelerating approvals for crypto ETFs, potentially including one for XRP by Bitwise. However, some traditional financial institutions are reducing their holdings of large-cap altcoins like XRP, favoring Bitcoin, Solana, and AI-related tokens. XRP's price is currently in a symmetrical triangle pattern and needs to break above $2.33 to move higher, while falling below $2.19 could lead to further decline. Separately, a project called Bitcoin Hyper ($HYPER) is developing on Solana to bring faster smart contract capabilities to Bitcoin, with a presale already exceeding $27 million.

While the cryptocurrency market, including Bitcoin, Ethereum and Solana, has generally experienced losses this week, Pi Network's PI token has surprisingly increased in value by 5%. Analysts suggest PI has established a support level around $0.20-$0.22, potentially leading to a rise to $0.29. AI analysis indicates possible resistance at $0.25 and then $0.30, with a potential surge to $0.35-$0.38 if the latter is surpassed. However, a bearish scenario exists where PI could fall below $0.20, with major support at $0.18. Experts cite positive updates within the Pi Network ecosystem as a factor in maintaining investor confidence. The most anticipated scenario expects PI to consolidate between $0.21 and $0.25, with a rise to $0.30-$0.35 depending on network news, and a dip to $0.18 if market conditions worsen.

Samsung Electronics is planning a new chip production line in Pyeongtaek, South Korea, aiming for mass production by 2028 to meet increasing AI-driven demand. This decision follows a 32.5% increase in their operating profit for the third quarter, driven by high demand for memory chips. The company's revenue also increased by almost 9% to approximately $60.4 billion during the same period, thanks to semiconductor and mobile phone sales. Samsung's operating profit reached $8.6 billion last quarter, a 160% increase from the previous quarter. Samsung also mentioned that its HBM3E chips are in mass production and are being sold, and samples of HBM4 are being sent to key customers. Samsung has increased prices for certain memory chips by up to 60% due to short supply and high demand for AI data centers, impacting prices for 32GB DDR5 modules which rose from $149 to $239 between September and November. Similar increases of around 50% and 30% were applied to other memory chips.

An initial $10,000 investment in BlackRock's Bitcoin ETF (IBIT) at its launch on January 5, 2024, would be worth $19,870 today. This represents a 98.7% gain, outperforming the S&P 500, Nasdaq 100, and even gold. The ETF experienced a peak in September where the initial $10,000 investment grew to approximately $25,000, reflecting a 150% return. However, a subsequent Bitcoin price drop reduced those gains. Despite this volatility and drawdown of roughly $6,000 from the peak, IBIT has still delivered returns outpacing major market benchmarks since its inception, largely due to Bitcoin's unique characteristics as a scarce, non-sovereign asset. The ETF's success has been supported by infrastructure developments such as spot ETF approval, BlackRock's brand, and a benchmark for auditing, transforming Bitcoin into a more accessible asset for institutions.

Changpeng Zhao (CZ), the founder of Binance, received a pardon from former US President Donald Trump, which his lawyer says was the result of a standard review process involving the Justice Department and White House lawyers, not a single phone call. The lawyer, Teresa Goody Guilln, explained that CZ's application went through several government offices, including the Justice Department's pardon attorney and the White House Counsel's Office. Goody argued that CZ's case was a regulatory matter concerning Binance's anti-money laundering compliance, not a criminal case with victims, and that he was wrongly prosecuted. She also addressed rumors of favor-trading related to the pardon, dismissing claims of business ties between Binance, Trump-linked ventures, and the stablecoin USD1 influencing the decision, stating they were based on false information. Despite the pardon, CZ will not return to run Binance, which remains under government oversight and faces restrictions from US agencies, even without US customers.
