Veteran Whales Blamed For Bitcoin’s Sharp Slide, Crypto Boss Says
It has been a tough week for the alpha dog of crypto and analysts aren’t so sure when the beating will stop.
Bitcoin hovered a little over $90,000 on Wednesday while Ethereum traded around $3,041, showing sharp moves after a rough week.
Over the past seven days, Bitcoin fell more than 12% and Ethereum dropped about 11%, according to market updates. Traders and analysts say the swings reflect both on-chain activity and wider macro pressure.
Long-Term Holders RotateAccording to CryptoQuant CEO Ki Young Ju, much of the recent price action reflects long-term holders moving coins between each other and into new hands.
He said older Bitcoin holders have been selling into buyers from traditional finance, including spot ETF vehicles and corporate treasuries, which then hold the assets for a long period.
Earlier this year he flagged heavy selling by OG whales when prices peaked, but he now points to fresh liquidity from different institutional sources that are changing how supply is absorbed.
Some On-Chain Signals Point To Normal CorrectionOn-chain metrics suggest the drop may be a mid-cycle correction rather than a full market reversal. Reports show short-term holders were panic selling and reducing exposure, while long-term holders performed routine profit-taking.
Analysts note that newer buyers continued to add funds during the slide, but inflows were not large enough to offset the wave of selling from nervous short-term traders. Bitcoin’s pullback from highs near $126K is cited as part of this rebalancing.
Based on reports, more than $1 trillion was wiped off the broader crypto market over six weeks, and the total market cap has fallen by a quarter since an early October high.
Tracking more than 18,500 coins, CoinGecko data shows the sector’s value slid sharply, with Bitcoin down about 25% over that period to roughly $91,200 at one point. Trading flows have thinned, and many market participants say both retail and institutional conviction weakened as prices tumbled.
Large Buyers See DiscountsJAN3 CEO Samson Mow told reporters that some buyers are largely price-insensitive and can use dips to increase holdings. He named examples like Strategy and other firms with big treasury budgets, and he pointed to stablecoin issuers and high-revenue companies that can add to positions.
At about $95k, Mow suggested Bitcoin may look like a near 20% “discount” for those buyers, making accumulation more attractive while supply remains limited.
Caught Between Chain Signals And Macro RiskMeanwhile, analysts at Nansen and others say Bitcoin now behaves more like a macro asset, moving with liquidity, the dollar, and policy cues.
Traders have also mentioned forced selling and tightened risk appetite after global events pushed sentiment lower in early October.
Political backing increased under US President Donald Trump earlier this year, and Wall Street’s adoption via spot ETFs helped, but those supports have not prevented the recent pullback.

Hoskinson Vs. Cardano Foundation: From Berlin Parties To ‘Useful Idiots’
A fresh public clash between Cardano founder Charles Hoskinson and the Cardano Foundation (CF) has reignited long-running tensions over governance, accountability and culture inside the ecosystem. The latest dispute centers on two flashpoints: a community-approved summit budget and a dispute over “useful idiots.”
Commenting on X about the Cardano Summit in Berlin and its associated budget, Hoskinson attacked what he framed as resistance to scrutiny at the Foundation: “Also known as we don’t want accountability, oversight, or real KPIs so please let us return to no scrutiny and 6 million ada parties in Berlin.”
The Hoskinson Vs. Cardano Foundation Beef Flares Up AgainHe linked that criticism directly to comments from Nicolas Cerny, the Cardano Foundation’s community and governance lead. In an earlier post, Cerny had written: “The ‘CF derangement syndrome’ is flaring up again. I strongly advise practicing critical thinking rather than simply parroting the talking points of certain individuals. You’re better than just being a useful idiot for someone’s political games.”
Hoskinson seized on this wording as emblematic of a deeper cultural problem at the Foundation, saying: “It is also extraordinary that the community lead at the CF calls the community ‘useful idiots’ when they ask for oversight and control over their foundation. Are you all getting the arrogance of their culture? It’s fundamentally broken.”
He later drew a clear line around his own base: “No one in my community is a useful idiot.”
Cerny, in follow-up posts, tried to supply context. He argued that fair criticism “is always welcome and encouraged,” claimed the CF has “a culture of listening and engaging,” and pointed back to Cardano’s original three-pillar model.
Citing a 2018 description of Cardano.org, he noted that the Foundation was initially tasked with standards, community support and regulatory engagement, while Emurgo was presented as the entity responsible for investing in start-ups and helping businesses, including stablecoin projects, build on Cardano.
“Based on this,” Cerny wrote, “Emurgo was the entity originally responsible for getting businesses, like stablecoin projects, to build on Cardano […] Many things have changed since then, and the Cardano Foundation has had to pick up more responsibilities, so I understand why people are frustrated. However, it seems unfair to blame an organization for not fulfilling a role it was never originally designed to fill. Regardless, we are doing it now because it matters.”
The Foundation today explicitly presents a wider mandate, including support for DeFi liquidity, Web3 integrations and real-world adoption, and has formalized these priorities in its public roadmap. Hoskinson, however, continues to argue that structural issues at the CF outweigh those efforts.
Replying to a community member who urged IOG, CF and Emurgo to “team up in favour of growth” and warned that “this is wrong” if the three entities cannot work constructively, Hoskinson was blunt: “I spent years trying to work with them. It is not possible with their current form and culture. They need oversight and leadership changes. Only uncompromising and continuous scrutiny can force this change and enable a reset.”
The result is a governance paradox at the heart of Cardano. On paper, the ecosystem is rolling out one of the industry’s most elaborate on-chain governance stacks. In practice, its founding institutions remain locked in a public struggle over mandate, legitimacy and tone — one now symbolized by Berlin’s “6 million ada parties” on one side and “useful idiots” on the other.
At press time, ADA traded at $0.458.

What Happens To The Ethereum Price If It Replicates Bitcoin Supercycle?
Over the years, the Ethereum price has usually mirrored Bitcoin, moving up when the latter did and crashing along with it. However, there seems to have been a deviation in the current cycle as Ethereum has lagged behind while the Bitcoin price hit multiple new all-time highs. Nevertheless, expectations remain that ETH will eventually catch up with BTC, with Fundstrat CIO Tom Lee predicting that ETH could replicate the Bitcoin supercycle.
Tom Lee On Ethereum Staging A Bitcoin-Like SupercycleFundstrat has become a prominent name in the crypto industry, and its CIO, Tom Lee, has even more so with commentary and predictions around digital assets in the space. One of the recent updates from Lee, who has always been bullish on Ethereum, covers the ‘Bitcoin supercycle’ over the years and why Ethereum could be the next to replicate it.
The post explained Fundstrat’s customers’ foray into the world of Bitcoin and crypto back in 2017 when it was first recommended to them. Lee revealed that, at the time, Fundstrat had advised its investors to allocate between 1% and 2% of their investment portfolios into Bitcoin.
The BTC price, while ‘high’ at the time, was very low compared to where it is now. However, in the 8.5 years since then, the digital asset has outperformed, and customer who held their BTC have seen a 100x return on holdings.
Fast forward to the presen,t and Lee explained that Fundstrat is expecting a supercycle to play out again, but this time, not for Bitcoin. Ethereum has become the new favorite of the firm, and the CIO believes that ETH could follow the same trajectory as Bitcoin.
The reason for this, Lee explains, is that “Crypto prices are discounting a massive future. So doubts create volatility.” This means that the firm expects prices to be much higher in the future than they are now, and Ethereum could be a major beneficiary of that expansion.
However, he also warns that the road to this supercycle will not be easy. For Bitcoin, it took the Bitcoin price tumbling more than 50% on six different occasions, and 75% crashes on three different occasions, before completing its 100x rally. Thus, “The path higher is not a straight line,” but holding is the key.
Taking the current Ethereum price and a similar timeframe as Bitcoin into account, a 100x rally would put the Ethereum price as high as $300,000. However, the timeframe would mean that this would happen sometime in the year 2033.

US Crypto Market Bill, Self-Custody And Best Wallet Token ($BEST): Positioning For The Next 1000x CryptoNovember 19, 2025 • 14:00 UTC
The US crypto market bill finally looks like it’s leaving limbo.
Senate Banking Chair Tim Scott says both the Banking and Agriculture committees are prepping markups next month, with a bipartisan version expected to advance early next year as the Senate companion to the House’s market structure push.
Coinbase’s Brian Armstrong is already talking up a possible passage window as soon as December, which would give clearer rules on which assets count as digital commodities and fall under CFTC oversight.
More structure usually means more institutions, but it also puts a spotlight on tools that keep users in control of their keys.
Best Wallet sits exactly there. It’s a non-custodial, multi-chain wallet that lets you buy, store, swap, stake, and soon spend crypto across major networks, backed by security audits from Coinsult and SolidProof.
The $BEST token powers fee discounts, governance, staking boosts, and special access to launches, with the presale already past $17M raised and set to close in 9 days.
Here’s what our $BEST price prediction has to say.
Aster’s 26% Rally, Market Rotation And Maxi Doge ($MAXI): Hunting The Next 1000x CryptoNovember 19, 2025 • 13:00 UTC
Aster ripping 26% yesterday while the broader market bleeds is a reminder that capital still chases conviction narratives, not just benchmarks.
One analyst is openly targeting a $10B market cap as AsterDEX demand, buybacks, and burns shrink float, with price action breaking out from a tightening triangle and eyeing the $2–$4 region if momentum holds.
When one alt shows that kind of supply shock potential, traders start scanning for the next story coin that can capture similar speculative flow.
Maxi Doge ($MAXI) lives in that lane. It’s a ‘gym bro’ spin on Dogecoin, positioned as a high-energy culture coin built around leverage memes and relentless grind, with a fixed 150.24B supply on Ethereum and a community-first branding push.
Coverage from major exchanges and analysts frames $MAXI as a next-generation meme coin rather than a throwaway pump, tying its upside to community strength and narrative stickiness rather than pure luck.
Learn how to buy $MAXI in our guide.
Kraken’s $800M Raise, Best Wallet Token ($BEST) And The Next 1000x Crypto Wallet PlayNovember 19, 2025 • 12:00 UTC
Kraken’s latest funding shows how much capital is still willing to back core crypto infrastructure.
The exchange just raised $800M across a dual-tranche round. This includes a $200M strategic investment from Citadel Securities, pushing its valuation to around $20B and funding an aggressive global expansion and potential IPO push.
Big centralized venues are clearly winning institutional trust again, but users who remember exchange blow-ups still want self-custody, multi-chain support, and easy access to new deals.
That’s the gap Best Wallet tries to fill. It’s a non-custodial, multi-chain wallet app with DEX trading, presale access, staking, and even a planned crypto debit card, plus support for 60+ blockchains.Its Best Wallet Token ($BEST) powers fee discounts, governance, and boosted staking yields, with the ongoing presale passing roughly $17M raised, offering high double-digit APY for early stakers, and entering its final stretch before listing.
For anyone watching big money flow into exchanges while hunting the next 1000x crypto in wallet infrastructure, $BEST is one of the cleaner ways to play that trend.

Bitcoin Liquidity Tailwinds, Macro Fears And Bitcoin Hyper ($HYPER): A Next 1000x Crypto Contender?November 19, 2025 • 11:00 UTC
Tight dollar liquidity is doing more damage to Bitcoin than any single headline.
Arthur Hayes argues the recent 25% drawdown tracks a sharp contraction in dollar liquidity, with ETF and DAT flows no longer masking the squeeze; he even floats a short-term move toward $80K–85K before a potential snapback if US policymakers are forced to ease again.
In parallel, WisdomTree analysts note that as liquidity normalizes and macro uncertainty eases, Bitcoin could stabilize and retest prior highs, keeping the larger bull-cycle structure intact despite the current stress.
If liquidity is the real driver, a lot of upside migrates to infrastructure built on top of Bitcoin rather than spot alone. Bitcoin Hyper ($HYPER) targets exactly that niche: a Bitcoin Layer-2 using the Solana Virtual Machine, a canonical bridge, and ZK-secured rollups to deliver fast, low-fee, programmable $BTC for DeFi and payments.
Its presale has raised over $28M at roughly $0.013295 per token, with early staking yields advertised at 41 APY, putting $HYPER firmly in the conversation as a ‘next 1000x crypto’ bet on Bitcoin liquidity coming back.
Here’s how to join the $HYPER presale quickly and safely.
US $38T Debt, Stablecoins And Best Wallet Token ($BEST): Could This Be The Next 1000x Crypto Play?November 19, 2025 • 10:00 UTC
Scott Bessent’s plan to tackle the USA’s $38T debt leans heavily on on-chain rails. By courting demand from money-market funds and a potentially tenfold larger stablecoin market, the Treasury is basically admitting that dollar liquidity is going to live on-chain, not just in legacy broker accounts.
That’s bullish for infrastructure, but it also raises a practical question for regular users: where do you actually hold and move these assets without handing custody to a centralized middleman?
Best Wallet sits right in that lane. The non-custodial app already supports major chains and stablecoins, lets you buy, swap, and stake, and is building towards 60+ networks plus a crypto debit card.
Best Wallet Token ($BEST), the native token, underpins that ecosystem with reduced fees, high-yield staking, governance, and priority access to new presales that could benefit from the same on-chain macro tailwinds, with the presale already past $17M raised and offering up to around 70% staking yields.
More importantly, the presale will end in just 9 days, so this is the last chance to get in at ground level.
Here’s how to buy $BEST right now.
Altcoin Season, Bitcoin Hyper ($HYPER) And The Next 1000x Crypto NarrativeNovember 19, 2025 • 10:00 UTC
Analyst Michael van de Poppe argues that the latest smackdown in majors looks more like a cycle reset than the start of a bear market, with falling Bitcoin dominance and rising ‘Others’ share lining up with previous altcoin season setups.
As $BTC chops below recent highs and ETF attention drifts toward alt-focused products, rotation bets are back on the table for anyone hunting higher beta exposure this cycle.
If that thesis plays out, Bitcoin infrastructure alts like Bitcoin Hyper ($HYPER) sit in a sweet spot. $HYPER is a Bitcoin Layer-2 built on the Solana Virtual Machine, aiming to give Bitcoin near-instant, low-fee transactions and smart contracts while still settling back to L1.
Its presale has already raised over $28M at roughly $0.013295 per token, with staking yields at 41% APY for early participants, signaling that whales and retail alike are leaning into the ‘Bitcoin but usable’ narrative.
For altseason traders, it’s one of the few plays that keeps core exposure to Bitcoin while adding upside to infrastructure growth.
Our $HYPER price prediction estimates explosive gains – read it.

Kraken’s $20B Expansion Bet Puts Spotlight on Alts Like SUBBD Token
Quick Facts:
- 1️⃣ Kraken’s $800M raise at a $20B valuation shows deep-pocketed institutions still back crypto exchanges, even through volatile market phases.
- 2️⃣ Big exchange raises and expansion plans often precede renewed liquidity flows into higher-beta narratives, with the AI tokens niche now increasingly popular.
- 3️⃣ SUBBD builds an AI creator subscription platform ready to onboard 2,000+ influencers and 250M fans, routing gated content and payments through $SUBBD.
- 4️⃣ The $SUBBD presale at $0.056975 plus 20% fixed staking rewards offers early access to a token designed to track creator-economy adoption.
Kraken just pulled off the kind of move the market has been begging for.
The US-based exchange has raised $800M across two funding rounds, locking in a fresh $20B valuation and a clear mandate: global expansion, deeper regulation-ready products, and more aggressive growth even as prices wobble.
The raise was led by heavyweight trading and investment firms and included a $200M strategic check from Citadel Securities.
That is not ‘degens in the comments’ money. It is institutional capital effectively saying that, despite choppy prices and scary candles, crypto infrastructure is worth backing at scale.For the broader market, this does two things. First, it reinforces that regulated exchanges are here to stay. Secondly, it hints at a coming wave of new products and listings as platforms like Kraken push into Latin America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, the Middle East, and Africa.
Historically, big exchange war chests have tended to front-run the next wave of adoption and altcoin rotation. That’s where narrative-driven sectors come in.
AI tokens are already hot, the creator economy is a multi-billion-dollar beast, and capital is hunting for projects with real revenue and sticky users rather than pure meme froth. SUBBD Token ($SUBBD), sitting at the intersection of AI and the creator economy, is positioning itself as one of the presales ready to absorb that renewed risk-on appetite.
How Kraken’s $20B War Chest Helps The $SUBBD NarrativeKraken’s new capital is earmarked for scaling global operations, strengthening its regulated footprint, and expanding its product suite, including derivatives and structured products. More regulated venues and deeper liquidity usually mean easier onramps for retail and institutions, tighter spreads, and more room for smaller-cap narratives to run once they finally list.
In past cycles, the pattern has been simple: first Bitcoin and the majors get bid, then big exchanges raise fresh capital and roll out new products, and only after that does serious liquidity rotate into higher-beta sectors like AI, gaming, and creator tokens.
Kraken’s $800M raise is exactly the kind of mid-cycle infrastructure signal that often precedes that rotation.SUBBD is lined up in one of the most obvious beneficiaries of such a rotation: the Web3 creator economy.
That’s what SUBBD is for: an AI-integrated creator platform on Ethereum, targeting the traditional subscription and paywalled-content market that has historically taken punitive cuts from creators.
Instead of surrendering up to 70% of their revenue, influencers can use SUBBD to gate content, run subscriptions, and automate engagement directly on-chain.
The platform already claims it’s ready to onboard 2,000 creators and more than 250M combined followers. That kind of embedded audience is what turns a speculative token into something with at least a shot at real cash flow.
In a world where big exchanges are becoming more comfortable listing revenue-generating altcoins, tokens backed by active platforms and subscription streams have a cleaner story than pure memes.
The $SUBBD token itself sits at the core of this system. It powers subscription payments, unlocks exclusive content and drops, grants access to proprietary AI creator tools, and plugs into governance and on-platform staking. As the ecosystem grows, more creator-fan interactions route through the token rather than fiat rails.
Learn more on SUBBD’s presale page.
$SUBBD Token Presale Turns AI Creator Fans Into StakeholdersThe SUBBD presale is where the AI narrative becomes actionable. The ICO has already raised more than $1.35M, with the token currently priced at $0.056975 in its latest stage.
At this level, the fully diluted valuation sits in the mid–$50M range, leaving plenty of theoretical headroom if the more optimistic price projections ever come close. Our $SUBBD price forecast, for example, puts the token at a 8.4x potential ROI in 2026, and over 40x by 2030.
Learn how to buy $SUBBD at the current low price.
What sets this presale apart from a random flyer is the clear tie to an existing platform and its monetization model. SUBBD’s business is simple to grasp: fans pay to access creators; creators keep more of the revenue. SUBBD, sitting in the middle, routes much of the activity through the $SUBBD token.
That creates a direct link between platform usage and token demand that many AI narratives simply don’t have.
On top of that, the token includes fixed 20% staking rewards, giving early holders an immediate incentive to lock their allocation and support network security and liquidity.In a market where many tokens rely purely on ‘number go up’ to keep people interested, a predictable staking yield can help smooth out volatility and encourage longer holding periods.
Kraken’s $20B flex tells you the rails are being built. SUBBD’s presale is effectively a bet that a chunk of the next adoption wave will run through AI-powered creator economies rather than purely speculative memes.

XRP’s Next Chapter: Ripple Developer Unveils Native Staking Concept For The XRPL
In a significant potential advancement for the XRP Ledger (XRPL), Ripple developer J. Ayo Akinyele, with support from the firm’s Chief Technology Officer David Schwartz, has proposed the idea of integrating native staking.
This concept aims to enhance rewards within the XRPL, particularly as XRP’s adoption increases through mechanisms such as digital asset treasuries (DATs) and focused exchange-traded funds (ETFs) centered on the token.
Key Requirements For Native Staking On The XRP LedgerIn a recent community blog post, Akinyele explored the potential implications of integrating staking into the XRPL. He raised the question: what if the XRPL supported native staking?
Akinyele emphasized the significance of this idea within the XRPL context, where it would challenge some established design principles.
For native staking on the network to become a reality, Akinyele identified two essential requirements: a reliable source of staking rewards and a fair mechanism for their distribution.
At present, transaction fees are intentionally burned, a deliberate strategy that maintains a deflationary supply and ensures network efficiency.
Introducing staking would necessitate a reevaluation of value circulation within the system and seek a sustainable method to reward participation. For instance, any new fees related to programmability could be allocated to a rewards pool.
Careful design would be crucial for the distribution of rewards, as staking would alter the interactions between validators and participants. Financial incentives could enhance engagement but also reshape governance dynamics.
Ensuring that these incentives and corresponding penalties are well-balanced, according to Ripple’s developer, will be vital to maintaining fairness and resilience within the network.
Evolving PerspectivesAlthough the concept of native staking offers appealing possibilities, Akinyele believes the real concern is how these rewards align with the existing Ledger design.
The network’s consensus model, known as Proof of Association (PoA), prioritizes trust and stability over financial incentives. Validators participate out of a commitment to the blockchains health.
Additionally, organic experimentation with staking and yield programs is already occurring in the community through various exchanges and DeFi protocols, such as Uphold/Flare, Doppler Finance, Axelar, and MoreMarkets. Akinyele further noted:
Whether or not native staking ever belongs on the network, exploring the idea reinforces the fact that XRP’s purpose isn’t singular or static. As the ecosystem grows, conversations about incentive models, fairness, and governance help ensure that XRP continues to serve as a connective asset in open, efficient financial systems.
In this context, Schwartz noted that his own views on governance and consensus mechanisms have shifted, particularly in relation to the token’s role in DeFi initiatives, both through existing applications and potential on-chain functionalities.
Given the ongoing discussions about programmability and smart contracts, he suggested that the XRP community should explore what other DeFi capabilities could emerge natively on the Ledger. This hints at the possibility of fulfilling Akinyele’s staking proposal.

Cloudflare Outage Just Made Everyone Paranoid: But Blockchain Kept Working—CZ
DDoS protection giant Cloudflare just went out, paralyzing major corners of the internet. Yet, blockchain networks like Bitcoin remain resilient.
Blockchain Stays Online Even As Cloudflare Experiences OutageToday, Cloudflare suffered a global network issue, causing major services connected to it to slow down or outright stop working. According to the website’s status tracker, it began looking into the issue around noon, UTC. Cloudflare noted it was “experiencing an internal service degradation.”
Cloudflare provides a range of internet and cybersecurity-related services, being most known for its “Checking your browser…” DDoS protection page that has become a familiar sight when navigating to some popular websites.
About 20% of the global traffic passes through the company, so any issues related to it can have widespread impacts. The outage today clearly showcased it, as it caused issues for thousands of users around the world.
Dane Knecht, Cloudflare CTO, posted a statement on X:
I won’t mince words: earlier today we failed our customers and the broader Internet when a problem in Cloudflare network impacted large amounts of traffic that rely on us. The sites, businesses, and organizations that rely on Cloudflare depend on us being available and I apologize for the impact that we caused.
Some of the biggest names impacted by the issue included ChatGPT, X, Uber, and McDonald’s. Ironically, even Downdetector, a website that helps users track outages around the internet, itself went down during the event.
It took Cloudflare a few hours to get the issue sorted. At 14:42 UTC, the status page reported, “A fix has been implemented and we believe the incident is now resolved.” There were some hiccups post this patch, but they were resolved by 17:44 UTC, as the website updated with, “We are no longer observing elevated errors or latency across the network.”
The market initially reacted to the event, as Cloudflare’s stock dropped to $194, but once the company restored services, its price jumped back to $199.
While Cloudflare was dealing with the outage, Binance co-founder and former CEO Changpeng Zhao posted on X: “Blockchain kept working.” The remark highlighted the fact that even when 20% of the internet suffered from issues, blockchains like Bitcoin and Ethereum kept operating normally.
Unlike the usual networks that usually have some point of centralization, blockchain networks run in a completely decentralized manner. This means that even if some nodes go offline, the network isn’t affected.
Earlier in the year, Amazon’s AWS also experienced a major outage, causing disruption in large parts of the internet. Even then, blockchain networks remained stalwart.
As for what caused the latest Cloudflare outage, Knecht has said it was a latent bug in a service related to the company’s bot mitigation capability. It started to crash, cascading into a broad degradation of Cloudflare services. “This was not an attack,” clarified Knecht.
The CTO has also shared that an investigation report is on the way, with transparent details related to what happened during the event included.
Bitcoin PriceAt the time of writing, Bitcoin is trading around $93,300, down 9.5% over the last week.

Senators Call For Probe Into WLFI Over Alleged Token Sales Linked To Russia, North Korea
Two US senators have sent a new letter demanding that the Department of Justice (DOJ) and the Treasury Department investigate Donald Trump-backed World Liberty Financial (WLFI) over token sales allegedly linked to illicit actors.
Senators Question WLFI’s Token SaleOn Tuesday, CNBC News reported that Democratic Senators Elizabeth Warren and Jack Reed expressed concerns about potential national security risks related to one of the Trump family’s crypto ventures, World Liberty Financial.
In a letter seen by the news media outlet, the senators requested that Attorney General Pam Bondi and Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent investigate claims that the Trump-backed company had allegedly sold tokens to sanctioned entities or individuals with ties to illicit actors in Russia and North Korea.
Warren and Reed reportedly argued that WLFI “lacks adequate safeguards to prevent bad actors from moving funds or gaining influence over its governance,” raising concerns over a potential conflict of interest.
According to CNBC, the letter cited a recent report from the non-profit corporate watchdog Accountable.US, which affirmed that World Liberty Financial sold its WLFI token to “various highly suspicious entities,” including traders with ties to North Korea’s Lazarus Group, or using Russia’s A7A5 ruble-backed stablecoin, and Iran’s largest crypto exchange, Nobitex.
To the senators, the reported token sales to individuals with “open and obvious connections to enemies of the U.S.” indicate “an absence of robust sanctions and anti-money laundering controls.”
Additionally, they consider that the company “risks supercharging illicit finance activity” and raises national security risks by giving bad actors “a seat at the table” to influence the firm’s governance.
The letter added that the Trump family’s ties with the crypto venture “create a financial conflict of interest for Trump Administration officials that report to the President: prioritizing token sales will directly enrich the Trump family — while compliance activities may interfere with this wealth creation.”
Conflict Of Interest Claims MountA spokesperson for World Liberty Financial rejected any misconduct, stating, “There is no conflict of interest between World Liberty Financial, a private crypto company with zero political power, and the U.S. government.”
Moreover, the representative told CNBC that “World Liberty Financial conducted rigorous AML/KYC checks on every pre-sale purchaser of the $WLFI governance token — the highest standard in the industry — and turned down millions of dollars from potential purchasers who failed the tests.”
It’s worth noting that the Democratic lawmakers have pressed multiple government officials, including the US Special Envoy for peace missions, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC)’s former acting chairman, and the head of the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC), about Trump’s crypto ventures and potential conflicts of interest.
Most recently, they have questioned the recently granted pardon to Binance’s co-founder and former CEO, Changpeng “CZ” Zhao. As reported by Bitcoinist, the US president denied allegations of potential corruption, alleging that he is not actively involved in the Trump family’s crypto businesses.
Nonetheless, the Democratic senators argued that the timing of their request is essential ahead of Congress’s efforts to develop new crypto regulation that could protect governance tokens like WLFI from current US oversight.
“As Congress considers legislation on the market structure for digital assets, we must ensure that crypto interests do not profit at the expense of U.S. national security and that illicit actors are not handed the keys to financial platforms that they can later exploit,” the letter added.
Ultimately, the senators requested that the DOJ and the Treasury provide the pertinent information against World Liberty Financial by December 1.
Brazil Considers Taxing Crypto For International Payments To Boost Revenue
In the latest move to close existing “loopholes” in the country’s tax system related to foreign-exchange transactions, Brazil is reportedly exploring the possibility of imposing taxes on cryptocurrency transactions used for international payments.
Cross-Border Crypto Transfers As Forex Operations?According to two officials familiar with the discussions who disclosed the information to Reuters, the Finance Ministry is considering expanding its financial transaction tax (IOF) to include certain cross-border transfers involving crypto assets, such as stablecoins, which are classified as foreign-exchange operations.
Currently, crypto transactions are not subject to the IOF tax, although investors are required to pay income tax on capital gains that exceed a specific monthly exemption.
While the primary intention behind this proposed taxation appears to be closing a regulatory gap, it also has the potential to enhance public revenue at a time when Brazil is striving to meet its fiscal targets.
The country’s crypto market, especially its reliance on stablecoins, has seen significant growth in recent years. In the first half of 2025 alone, crypto transactions in Brazil amounted to 227 billion reais (approximately $42.8 billion), representing a 20% increase compared to the previous year.
Notably, stablecoins accounted for two-thirds of that volume, with USDT, issued by Tether, predominating. In contrast, Bitcoin (BTC) transactions made up only about 11% of the total.
The new regulatory framework established by the central bank is poised to support a tax change, as officials believe stablecoins serve primarily as a cost-effective means of maintaining dollar balances.
One source indicated that the upcoming regulations aim to prevent regulatory arbitrage between stablecoins and traditional foreign-exchange markets.
Brazil Estimates $30 Billion In Annual Revenue LossesThe central bank’s new guidelines will take effect in February 2026, treating any transaction involving the purchase, sale, or exchange of stablecoins as a foreign-exchange operation.
This classification will extend to international payments facilitated through virtual assets, as well as electronic transactions and transfers to and from self-custody wallets.
The government is reportedly reviewing the implications of these changes with caution, emphasizing that the new classifications do not automatically invoke tax obligations. Specific guidance from Brazil’s federal tax authority will dictate whether transactions will be taxed.
In a recent initiative, the tax service has expanded reporting requirements for crypto transactions to encompass foreign service providers operating in Brazil.
A Federal Police official noted that improved visibility of digital asset transactions subject to IOF taxation would facilitate the levying of other import taxes as well.
The official highlighted concerns that companies could misrepresent import values, stating, “If you import machinery or inputs, declare 20% officially, and send the other 80% via USDT without paying customs duties, IOF is the least of your problems.”
The government estimates that more than $30 billion in potential annual revenue from imports is being lost due to crypto transfers meant to evade taxation.

Analyst Suggests Selling Bitcoin To Buy Dogecoin, Here’s Why
Bitcoin’s latest pullback has created an unexpected opportunity in one corner of the market, and it is not coming from BTC itself. Attention has shifted to the DOGE/BTC trading pair, which has quietly returned to a major support zone that proposes the start of strong outperformance for Dogecoin.
One trader, known as Jimmy on X, has shared a chart that shows just how significant this support is, suggesting that the current structure may be preparing Dogecoin for a strong change in relative strength if the level continues to hold.
DOGE/BTC Is Sitting On Very Strong SupportJimmy’s technical analysis highlights one fundamental idea: the DOGE/BTC pair is sitting on what he describes as a “very strong support.” As shown in the chart below, Dogecoin is currently consolidating at the same base level that preceded some of its largest outperformance phases against Bitcoin on the daily candlestick timeframe.
A closer look at the chart shows that each touch of this support since 2024 has produced a steady and sometimes explosive upward move. This consistency is what makes the current retest important.
The most memorable of these was the rally in mid-2024, when a similar retest sparked months of Dogecoin strength. That move carried the pair from roughly 0.00000170 to 0.00000450 before momentum finally cooled.
At the time of writing, the DOGE/BTC pair is back to trading around 0.00000170. The gradual drift downward on the pair has slowed as it taps this demand region again, leaving the pair to decide whether another rebound is forming beneath the surface.
The long-term pattern reflects exhaustion among sellers and a potential buildup similar to the early stretches of previous runs.
Even the RSI on the chart sits in a neutral band but has begun curling upward from low-momentum regions. If this support continues to hold, it would reinforce the idea that Bitcoin’s dominance may be peaking while Dogecoin prepares for a rebound against the leading cryptocurrency.
Whales Should “Sell Bitcoin And Buy Dogecoin”The most important part of Jimmy’s commentary was his remark that if he were a Bitcoin whale, he would jeet and buy DOGE.
His point is tied to relative value. At this support, the DOGE/BTC ratio sits at one of its lowest points in years, meaning Dogecoin is cheap relative to Bitcoin. If a repeat of previous performance were to take place, Dogecoin could rebound from this support zone at 0.00000170 and push upwards against Bitcoin in the next few weeks.
Dogecoin’s spot price is currently reflecting the broader market mood. At the time of writing, Dogecoin is trading at $0.1553, down 4.3% in the last 24 hours. The entire market is under pressure, with total crypto capitalization dropping by 5.1% over the same period.
Bitcoin ETFs See $3.3 Billion Drawdown—Second Largest Since Launch
Data shows Bitcoin spot exchange-traded funds (ETFs) are down $3.29 billion from their all-time high (ATH) after the latest wave of outflows.
Bitcoin Spot ETFs Are Experiencing Their Second-Largest Drawdown EverIn a new post on X, CryptoQuant community analyst Maartunn has talked about how the holdings attached to the US Bitcoin spot ETFs are currently looking. Spot ETFs refer to investment vehicles that allow an investor to gain exposure to an underlying asset’s price movements without having to directly own said asset.
In the context of cryptocurrencies, this means that the ETF holder never has to interact with a digital asset exchange or make any transactions on the blockchain; the fund buys and holds the coin on their behalf. Spot ETFs are a relatively recent phenomenon in the sector, having received approval from the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) only in January of last year.
Despite them being new, these investment vehicles have grown into one of the cornerstones of the market, tapping into the demand from traditional investors who were previously reluctant to trade on-chain. Given the relevance of the spot ETFs, the trend in their holdings can be worth keeping an eye on, as it may reflect the sentiment among institutional entities. One way to do so is by measuring where these funds stand relative to their ATH.
Below is the chart shared by Maartunn that shows how the drawdown from the ATH currently looks for the Bitcoin spot ETFs:
From the graph, it’s visible that the Bitcoin spot ETFs saw their USD holdings reach an ATH in October, but since then, they have been facing a sustained drawdown. Last month, the drawdown was still limited, but the outflows accompanying the price crash have meant ETF holdings are now significantly down compared to the peak.
More specifically, spot ETF holdings are currently down a whopping $3.29 billion, the second-largest drawdown since last year’s launch. The only phase during which the metric’s value was higher was the bearish period between February and April. Back then, ETFs saw a peak drawdown of $4.8 billion. The latest decline in ETF holdings is still notably below this mark, so it only remains to be seen whether the drawdown will deepen in the near future.
In some other news, Strategy made a large purchase on Monday, but the continued decline in the Bitcoin price has already pushed the treasury firm’s new acquisition significantly into the red. According to CryptoQuant, the combination of this move and the price drop has resulted in about 40% of the company’s reserves now sitting underwater.
BTC PriceBitcoin slipped under $90,000 just earlier, but the coin has since bounced back to $91,500.
Crypto Advocacy Network Sets Out To Educate State Lawmakers Before 2026 Elections
The Digital Chamber has launched a new initiative called the State Network to push crypto asset policy at the state and local level across the US.
According to reports, the group says the effort is timed to influence lawmaking and political contests ahead of the 2026 midterm elections.
Key hires and early activity in several states mark a clear shift from Washington-focused lobbying to hands-on state work.
State Network Targets Lawmakers And Local GroupsThe Network will be led in part by Anastasia Dellaccio, who has been named Executive Director Of State & Regional Affairs. Based on reports, Cody Carbone, the group’s CEO, said the aim is to educate elected officials and staff at state capitals.
The program reportedly began activity in four states — New York, Arizona, Ohio, and New Hampshire — and will expand its reach through a planned 2026 Digital Asset Tour.
Small grants are part of the plan; a micro-grants program is set to kick off in 2026 to fund state blockchain associations, university blockchain clubs, and community innovation groups.
Partnerships And Political TimingReports have disclosed that The Digital Chamber is partnering with the Future Caucus to reach younger and rising officials. The partnership is described as a way to introduce lawmakers to industry players and to provide training and materials on crypto policy.
That timing matters because the initiative is explicitly tied to the 2026 midterms. Organizers say they want more lawmakers at every level to understand, and in many cases support, policies favorable to digital assets.
The strategy blends education with political organizing. It also means the effort will operate in a political arena as much as a policy one.
A Grassroots Funding AngleWe’re thrilled to welcome our inaugural members: @Hedera, @Strategy, @Trondao, @InputOutputHK, and @Cryptocom. pic.twitter.com/Q2NJU9ZNm5
— The Digital Chamber (@DigitalChamber) November 17, 2025
Micro-grants aim to build local networks of supporters and educators. Reports indicate these grants will back small state groups and university teams that can speak about blockchain to lawmakers and communities.
Organizers say this is about building capacity at the state level rather than just spending in national races. Some of the groups expected to benefit are grassroots associations and campus clubs that host public events or briefings.
The Digital Chamber says the first members of the new network include Michael Saylor’s company Strategy, the Hedera network, which uses proof-of-stake, and Input Output, a company that works on blockchain research and infrastructure.

How This Cardano Holder Lost $6.09 Million In Minutes Due To On-Chain Liquidity Issues
A Cardano holder has experienced a staggering financial blow this week, losing over $6 million worth of ADA in just minutes due to on-chain liquidity issues. The funds, which had been sitting dormant for nearly five years, vanished almost instantly during the massive swap. The incident raises alarm regarding the risks involved in using Decentralized Exchanges (DEXs) and the importance of understanding liquidity and slippage before executing large trades.
Cardano Holder Loses Over $6 Million ADA In MinutesA new report from a famous on-chain sleuth, ZachXBT, revealed a jaw-dropping loss for a Cardano investor. The user had swapped 14.4 million ADA, valued at approximately $6.9 million, for 847,000 USDA, a stablecoin pegged to ADA. The transaction occurred just two hours before the report became public, revealing that the investor had lost approximately $6.05 million, wiping out more than 80% of his initial investment.
ZachXBT has said that the dramatic loss was likely due to extremely thin liquidity in the trading pool, which caused the price of ADA to spike temporarily during the swap. Vladimir S., a threat researcher who shared ZachXBT’s findings on X from his Telegram group, speculated that the Decentralized Exchange interface where the transaction occurred probably did not provide clear, low-liquidity warnings for a swap of that magnitude.
Vladimir suggested that an Over-The-Counter (OTC) deal would have been a much safer alternative for a $6.9 million ADA swap. Notably, this case highlights how even long-term crypto holders can suffer major losses when they do not fully understand how DEXs work.
Community Weighs In On Liquidity Issues And Slippage WarningsZachXBT’s report sparked extensive discussions among crypto traders and analysts, who pointed out that the $6.9 million ADA swap carried a staggering high price impact of 87.433%. Many in the community noted that the transaction was executed on the Minswap DEX, where users are required to actively acknowledge and consent to high slippage warnings to confirm trades.
Some members argued that the $6.05 million loss could have been avoided if the user paid attention to the interface and the obvious warnings displayed for transactions exceeding typical slippage thresholds. Responding to Vladimir’s speculation about a lack of clear liquidity warnings, other community members confirmed that Minswap always provides visible alerts for low liquidity swaps. Large slippage percentages, typically above 3-5%, are displayed in bright red texts, making it almost impossible for traders to miss.
Some observers suggested that the Cardano holder may have misunderstood the interface, possibly due to language barriers or a lack of familiarity with decentralized finance mechanisms. Regardless of the reasons, this incident serves as a clear reminder for crypto users to pay attention to liquidity and slippage alerts when executing high-value swaps.
Bitcoin Hits Seven-Month Low, El Salvador Scoops Up Another $100M, Is This The Right Bet?
Bitcoin has officially erased its 2025 gains, plunging to $90,000 for the first time in seven months and cementing its entry into a full-blown bear market. After hitting an all-time high of over $126,000 just six weeks ago, the world’s largest crypto asset has tumbled more than 28%, erasing over $600 billion in market value.

Analysts say this brutal pullback reflects a global retreat from risk. AI stocks, crypto, and other speculative assets have all been hammered as investors grow uneasy over whether the Federal Reserve will deliver a rate cut next month.
Thin liquidity, stemming from the October 10 flash crash, triggered by President Donald Trump’s reignited trade war with China, has only amplified the volatility.
Bitcoin Institutional Activity and Market TrendInstitutional outflows haven’t helped either. U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs have recorded over $3 billion in net withdrawals in just three weeks, while short-term traders and year-end profit-takers add more downward pressure.
With BTC now hovering around $89,500, sentiment has sunk to “extreme fear,” according to the Fear & Greed Index reading of 11.
Nonetheless, some believe the market is nearing exhaustion. Analysts at Bitwise and BitMine argue that Bitcoin is carving out a bottom, calling current levels a rare opportunity for long-term accumulation.
El Salvador Buys the Dip, AgainAs panic grips the market, one player isn’t flinching, El Salvador. President Nayib Bukele announced the country’s largest single-day Bitcoin purchase ever, 1,090 BTC worth roughly $100 million, timed with Bitcoin’s drop below $90,000.
This latest buy pushes El Salvador’s total holdings to approximately 7,474 BTC, now valued at around $670 million. The country has also been purchasing 1 BTC per day since November 2022, accumulating more than 1,098 BTC over the past week alone.
But the move raises eyebrows. Under a $1.4 billion loan agreement with the IMF, El Salvador’s public sector is prohibited from buying Bitcoin. Officials have issued conflicting statements, and the IMF has suggested that some “new purchases” may simply be wallet consolidations. Yet Bukele insists the strategy is ongoing and unstoppable.
Right Bet or Risky Gamble?While El Salvador continues doubling down, adoption inside the country remains low. Surveys show that most Salvadorans still prefer using the U.S. dollar, despite Bitcoin’s legal tender status. Volatility, technical barriers, and limited merchant uptake have slowed everyday use.
Still, Bukele frames Bitcoin as a long-game strategy, one that could position the nation at the forefront of a digital monetary shift. With sovereign players like the Czech National Bank also dipping into Bitcoin, El Salvador’s bold stance may prove visionary… or dangerously premature.

For now, Bitcoin sits at a crossroads. Whether this is the start of a deeper reset or a temporary shakeout could define not just the crypto market’s next chapter, but the legacy of the world’s first Bitcoin nation.

El Salvador Buys The Dip: Adds 1,090 Bitcoin on Top of Daily Purchases
Bitcoin has entered one of its most critical phases of the year as intense selling pressure briefly pushed the price below the $90,000 level, shaking market confidence and triggering widespread fear. Bears argue this breakdown marks the beginning of a deeper bearish cycle, with liquidity worsening and risk sentiment collapsing across global markets.
Yet, despite the growing bear-market narrative, major players are signaling the opposite — long-term conviction. According to Lookonchain, El Salvador is aggressively buying the dip, reinforcing its commitment to Bitcoin even as volatility surges. Beyond its ongoing program of purchasing 1 BTC per day, the government executed a significant buy just a few hours ago, adding 1,090.19 BTC worth approximately $101 million to its holdings. This unexpected accumulation stands in stark contrast to the broader market panic.
While retail sentiment remains fearful, moves like this highlight the growing divide between short-term traders reacting to price swings and strategic buyers focusing on long-term value. As Bitcoin hovers near key support levels, the market now faces a defining moment: capitulation or accumulation.
El Salvador’s Bold Move Amid PanicEl Salvador’s unexpected Bitcoin purchase has added a dramatic twist to an already tense market environment. President Nayib Bukele shared a screenshot of the transaction and BTC holdings (7,474.37 BTC) on X, accompanied by a simple but telling caption: “Woa.”
The message, brief yet powerful, instantly captured the attention of the crypto community. At a moment when fear is dominating sentiment and traders are scrambling for safety, Bukele’s reaction reflects a markedly different mindset — one grounded in conviction rather than panic.
With Bitcoin breaking below $90,000 earlier today, many market participants interpreted the move as confirmation of a looming bear market. Liquidations surged, volatility spiked, and social sentiment hit extremes not seen since earlier corrections this year.
Strong hands — long-term investors, sovereign entities, and institutional accumulators — are increasingly framing the recent pullback as a strategic entry point. This stands in stark contrast to short-term traders capitulating under pressure. Historically, such divergences have marked pivotal cycle moments where distribution flips to accumulation.
Bitcoin Price Analysis: A Critical Breakdown Near Multi-Month LowsBitcoin’s latest price action shows a sharp deterioration in market structure, with BTC now trading near $91,000 after a steep rejection from the $110K–$115K region. The chart reflects a clear loss of momentum: lower highs, accelerating sell volume, and a decisive breakdown below the key 200-day moving average, a level that had acted as macro support throughout most of 2025.
The most concerning signal is the clean break under $95K, a zone that previously served as a strong demand region during multiple pullbacks. Losing this level has opened the door to deeper downside, and BTC is now testing the next critical support area between $88K and $90K, marked by the 300-day MA and prior consolidation structure from early 2025.
Volume has spiked on the sell-off, confirming that this is not a low-liquidity dip but a broad risk-off move. The pattern resembles a cascading liquidation event, with consecutive long squeezes intensifying the decline.
Despite the bearish pressure, BTC remains above the broader bull-market base structure formed around $80K–$85K, meaning the macro trend isn’t fully broken yet. Still, bulls must reclaim $95K quickly to prevent momentum from slipping further.

Ethereum Price Crashes to $3,000 Amid Market Shakeout, Analysts Warn of Volatility Ahead
The Ethereum price has plummeted below the critical $3,000 level as the broader cryptocurrency market experiences an intense sell-off, triggering renewed uncertainty among traders.
ETH is currently trading around $3,067, marking a 23% decline over the past month and signaling one of its steepest corrections of 2025.
Long-Term Holders Accumulate, But Pressure MountsDespite the sharp correction, on-chain data shows long-term Ethereum holders are doubling down. According to CryptoQuant, Ethereum is trading roughly 8% above the Accumulation Addresses Realized Price, a metric that tracks the cost basis of seasoned holders.
These investors have added 17 million ETH in 2025, increasing their total holdings from 10 million to over 27 million coins, suggesting deep conviction even as markets wobble.
However, the selling pressure across exchanges remains intense. More than 164,000 traders were liquidated in 24 hours, with total liquidations nearing $900 million.
Ethereum price also entered a major liquidation zone between $2,900 and $3,000, amplifying volatility. Outflows from Ethereum ETFs also surged, with over $728 million withdrawn in a week, further weakening sentiment.
Adding to market anxiety, high-profile crypto figure Arthur Hayes reportedly offloaded 1,480 ETH, sparking speculation that influential traders may be bracing for a deeper downside.
Ethereum Price Technical Levels Signal CautionFrom a technical perspective, the Ethereum price structure remains fragile. The asset is trading below the 100-hourly SMA and struggling to reclaim the 50-week moving average, which now acts as resistance. A bearish trend line has formed near $3,150, with additional hurdles at $3,260 and $3,350.
On the downside, immediate support lies at $2,950, followed by a stronger floor at $2,880. A break below this region could open the path toward $2,750 or even $2,680 levels, which analysts warn could trigger broader market contagion.
Is a Recovery Still Possible?Even amid the chaos, some analysts remain optimistic. Fundstrat’s Tom Lee insists ETH may be bottoming, projecting a potential rally toward $7,000 within 45 days, fueled by the upcoming Fusaka network upgrade, booming stablecoin activity, and growing institutional interest.
For now, the Ethereum price remains caught between strong long-term accumulation and escalating short-term selling pressure. Whether bulls reclaim the $3,150 resistance, or bears push ETH toward fresh lows, will likely hinge on macroeconomic data and Bitcoin’s next major move.

Zcash rośnie, gdy reszta rynku tonie w czerwieni
Mamy wieczór 18 listopada, a Zcash sięga właśnie 2275 zł. Przez niecałe dwa miesiące projekt urósł o 1000%, gdy szeroki rynek krypt wciąż szuka stabilnego punktu odbicia w kryzysie.
Taka rozbieżność zawsze przyciąga uwagę traderów, szczególnie tych, którzy śledzą rotację kapitału w sektorach o podwyższonej zmienności. Nowy impuls na ZEC pojawił się w momencie, gdy dominujące projekty notowały wyraźne cofnięcia, co samo w sobie jest rzadkim sygnałem siły.
ZEC odbija, gdy sentyment pozostaje chłodnyOstatnie dane rynkowe pokazują, że Zcash wystrzelił do najwyższych poziomów od czterech lat, aktualnie jego cena oscyluje wokół 2280 zł. Ostatni raz token osiągnął taką cenę w 2018 roku.
Według wykresu CoinMarketCap kurs ZEC osiągnął lokalny szczyt w trakcie turbulencji na rynku. Potwierdza to, że kapitał spekulacyjny szuka selektywnych okazji w projektach o wysokiej asymetrii.
Ta zmiana ma znaczenie dla inwestorów, bo wskazuje, że segment prywatności wciąż ma swoją niszę i potrafi bronić się w okresach podwyższonej niepewności.
Oczekiwania dotyczące rozwoju technologii prywatności znów stają się realnym tematem rozmów na rynku. Wzrost zainteresowania narzędziami chroniącymi tożsamość użytkowników nie jest nowy. Aktualny trend pokazuje jednak, że projekty takie jak ZEC nadal są postrzegane jako kryptowaluty, w które warto zainwestować w okresach dywersyfikacji, co pokazał 1000% wzrost w trakcie niespełna dwóch miesięcy.
Struktura rynku sprzyja aktywom defensywnymZachowanie Zcash w ostatnich tygodniach wpisuje się w klasyczny scenariusz rotacji. Kiedy główne indeksy krypto szukają fundamentu, część inwestorów przenosi kapitał do tokenów o bardziej stabilnych narracjach.
ZEC od lat utrzymuje reputację projektu, który oferuje użytkownikom zaawansowaną formę prywatności, a rynek często przypomina sobie o takich rozwiązaniach w momentach napięcia.
Skok ZEC zbiegł się z rosnącą aktywnością adresów oraz ożywieniem w wolumenie. Może być to sugestia, że nie jest to jedynie krótkotrwały zryw. Momentum nadal jest ostrożne, ale struktura ruchu wygląda bardziej jak początek nowej fali spekulacji, a nie przypadkowy wystrzał w trakcie chaosu. Według niektórych inwestorów z portalu X, Zcash pod koniec roku, może przebić kwotę 3000 zł.
Narracja prywatności wraca do obieguW przestrzeni krypto regularnie pojawiają się fale dyskusji dotyczących prywatności. W momentach, gdy regulatorzy zacieśniają kontrolę, a dane użytkowników stają się coraz bardziej towarem, tokeny oparte na anonimowości odzyskują na znaczeniu.
Taki cykl widać właśnie teraz. ZEC korzysta z tego kontekstu, ponieważ od początku projektu funkcjonuje jako narzędzie, które daje użytkownikom pełną kontrolę nad tym, co udostępniają.
Niektóre tokeny mogą dynamicznie rosnąć mimo słabszych warunków makro. Zcash znakomicie wpisuje się w tę charakterystykę, bo jego wzrost nie wynika z impulsu zewnętrznego, lecz odnowionego zainteresowania fundamentalną funkcjonalnością.
Wybory inwestorów przesuwają się w stronę defensywnych trendówDla traderów śledzących rotacje ryzyka ZEC może służyć jako wskaźnik tego, gdzie na rynku pojawia się zysk za stabilniejszą narrację. W takich momentach wielu inwestorów przygląda się nie tylko aktualnym wystrzałom, ale też projektom we wczesnych fazach, które oferują przejrzystą tokenomikę i rozwijające się ekosystemy. Nie chodzi o wybór pomiędzy narracją prywatności a nowymi tokenami, lecz o rozsądne równoważenie portfela.
To właśnie tutaj pojawia się miejsce na wzmiankę o przedsprzedaży Best Wallet Token. Projekt przyciąga uwagę części rynku ze względu na narzędzia związane z zarządzaniem aktywami oraz transparentną dokumentację.
Jego przedsprzedaż zebrała ponad 17 milionów dolarów, co w obecnym klimacie świadczy o tym, że inwestorzy nadal są gotowi sfinansować produkty infrastrukturalne, jeśli ich koncepcja jest jasna. Wysokie nagrody za staking, które sięgają 76 procent, sugerują wczesny etap rozwoju z naciskiem na zachętę użytkowników, a nie gotowy model długoterminowy.
Cena tokena Best Wallet wynosząca 0.025965 dolara pozostaje niska jak na projekt infrastrukturalny, choć oczywiście nie stanowi to rekomendacji inwestycyjnej.
Informacje o BWT przypominają, że rynek szuka projektów, które mogą wzmacniać narzędzia do obsługi portfela w okresach większej zmienności. Część inwestorów traktuje takie inicjatywy jako wsparcie dla własnej strategii zarządzania kapitałem, niezależnie od tego, jak nabyć kryptowaluty i gdzie je później przechowywać.
ZEC jako barometr niepokojuWzrost ZEC zawsze można traktować jako pewnego rodzaju barometr napięcia na rynku. Choć prywatność nie jest tak modna jak narracje związane z AI, warstwami drugimi czy tokenizacją aktywów, to jej powroty bywają gwałtowne. Kiedy inwestorzy czują, że rynek nie daje stabilnych sygnałów, częściej sięgają po narzędzia, które zwiększają kontrolę nad własną aktywnością w sieci.
Aktualny trend nie wskazuje na euforię. Bardziej przypomina etap, w którym kapitał szuka kierunku i sprawdza, które projekty są w stanie utrzymać wartość w trudniejszym otoczeniu. Zcash rośnie w takich momentach dlatego, że jego narracja nie wymaga hype’u. Wystarczy kapitał, który szuka schronienia w aktywach z jasno określoną funkcją.
Rynek wciąż pozostaje w fazie podwyższonej zmienności, ale reakcja ZEC pokazuje, że segment prywatności znalazł chwilowe okno siły. Dla inwestorów to sygnał, że rotacje tematyczne nadal działają, a sektor kryptowalut oferuje unikalną możliwość obserwowania tych ruchów niemal w czasie rzeczywistym.
Buy Bitcoin Now? Not Yet, Says Blackbay Capital President
Bitcoin’s latest pullback has not persuaded Blackbay Capital president Todd Butterfield to re-enter the market. In a fresh BTC/USD daily chart on Bitfinex, shared on X, the Wyckoff specialist reiterates: “Yes, I am still on the sidelines with#BTC. Our Wyckoff indicators are still not flashing BUY. We are new below the .382 retracement as well…”.
Wyckoff Analysis Predicts Deeper Bitcoin Price CorrectionThe chart covers May to 17 November 2025 and shows Bitcoin trading at $92,838. Across this period Butterfield maps a textbook Wyckoff distribution. The advance into early summer culminates in a Buying Climax (BC) just above $123,000, followed by an Automatic Reaction (AR) that establishes support slightly above $112,000. A Secondary Test (ST) revisits the BC area, confirming the white horizontal resistance band drawn around the $123,000 region.
Later, price marginally exceeds that ceiling in an Upthrust After Distribution (UTAD), before failing back into the range. Under Wyckoff logic this marks the terminal trap for late buyers and confirms that large players are distributing. Once the UTAD fades, Bitcoin breaks below the AR line in a Sign of Weakness (SOW), then produces a lower high labelled Last Point of Supply (LPSY), where a rally stalls beneath former support.
Trend metrics back the bearish structure. The 20-day simple moving average sits at $103,132.2 and the 50-day SMA at $110,033.9, both sloping downward. With spot at $92,838, BTC is decisively below both moving averages, consistent with Wyckoff’s markdown phase rather than the start of a new accumulation.
Butterfield also overlays Fibonacci retracements of the preceding uptrend. Two levels are explicitly marked: the 0.382 retracement at $95,358.1 and the 0.5 retracement at $101,257.8. Bitcoin is currently below the 0.382 line, the condition he highlights in his post as reinforcing a non-bullish stance. A small vertical bracket between current price and the 50% level visually underscores how far BTC would need to rebound to test a deeper retracement.
Below price, three proprietary Wyckoff indicators drive his decision to stay sidelined. The Wyckoff Optimism–Pessimism (Aggregate, 5) line trends steadily lower and now sits near –520.89K, signalling persistent net selling throughout the distribution. The Wyckoff Force (Aggregate, 10) indicator has rolled into negative territory at around –852.3, reflecting downside progress backed by meaningful volume, particularly on the SOW and follow-through selling.
The Wyckoff Technometer (Aggregate, 50, 38, 5), plotted as an orange oscillator, has repeatedly flagged overbought conditions above the 50 line near earlier peaks in June, July, August and October. Today it reads 40.7—below overbought yet still above the oversold band around 38. In Butterfield’s framework, that mid-range reading does not qualify as a low-risk buy zone.
At press time, BTC traded at $91,570.
