Bitcoin has reclaimed the $93,000 level after a sharp market-wide rebound, marking a notable shift in sentiment following weeks of bearish pressure and relentless selloffs. Analysts who previously warned of deeper downside are now turning cautiously bullish as fresh data begins to point toward a structural improvement in market conditions.

One of the clearest signals comes from a new report by Arab Chain on CryptoQuant, which shows that the Coinbase Premium Index has flipped back into positive territory at +0.03. This shift is significant: after a full month of U.S.-led selling in November, a positive premium often reflects renewed demand from US institutions, funds, and large traders, who primarily use Coinbase as their gateway for liquidity.

At the same time, Binance-based metrics—particularly spot volumes and perpetual futures activity—show that global liquidity is beginning to respond to the improving US bid. Historically, when Coinbase Premium rises alone, rallies tend to fade quickly. But when Binance liquidity strengthens in tandem, the market usually enters a consolidation phase that can set the stage for a sustained upward move.

Bitcoin Market Convergence Strengthens

Arab Chain notes that the price gap between Binance and Coinbase has narrowed significantly in recent days, a key sign that capital flows across major exchanges are beginning to rebalance. Throughout November, persistent selling from US investors created a disconnect between the two platforms, with Coinbase often pricing lower than Binance.

The recent convergence suggests that both markets are now receiving similar levels of demand, reducing fragmentation and improving overall market stability.

At the same time, Binance liquidity has begun to strengthen, with spot and perpetual markets showing a gradual rise in buying activity. This uptick supports the idea that Bitcoin may be forming a new price base following the sharp correction that pushed the asset into the low $80K range just days ago. Strengthening liquidity on Binance is particularly important because it reflects global participation—not just US-based flows.

The combination of a positive Coinbase Premium and recovering Binance liquidity creates a more constructive market environment. If these conditions persist—premium staying above zero and buy-side volumes increasing—the market could transition into the early stages of a new upward trend.

However, Arab Chain warns that if the premium turns negative again, traders should expect renewed volatility and short-term selling pressure to return.

BTC Reclaims $93K But Must Overcome Key Resistance Levels

Bitcoin’s 3-day chart shows a notable improvement after reclaiming the $93,000 level, but the broader structure remains in recovery mode rather than full reversal. The bounce from the $82,000–$85,000 demand zone marked a clear reaction from buyers, creating strong lower wicks that signal aggressive dip absorption. However, BTC now faces a critical test as it approaches the cluster of moving averages that served as breakdown points during November’s correction.

Price currently sits just below the 50 SMA, which is trending downward and acting as immediate resistance near $95,000–$97,000. The 100 SMA, positioned around the $103,000 region, represents the next major barrier. A decisive break above this zone would signal a potential shift in mid-term momentum. Meanwhile, the 200 SMA at $88,500 now acts as reclaimed support, and Bitcoin holding above it is an early sign of stabilization.

Volume during the rebound shows healthier buying activity compared to late-November declines, but it remains moderate—suggesting cautious participation rather than full conviction. For BTC to regain trend strength, it must print a strong close above the 50 SMA and attempt to retest the 100 SMA.

Failure to break above $95K–$97K could invite another pullback toward $88K, making this resistance cluster a crucial pivot for Bitcoin’s next major move.

A major Australian crypto industry group has lodged a formal complaint with the Australian Broadcasting Corporation, arguing that recent coverage of Bitcoin contained multiple errors and a biased tone.

According to the industry group, the broadcaster presented a one-sided view that overemphasized criminal usage and volatility while leaving out legitimate uses and data.

ABIB Calls For Corrections And Response Within 60 Days

Based on reports, the Australian Bitcoin Industry Body (ABIB) says it asked ABC to correct specific statements it considers false or misleading, and to publish clarifications. The complaint was made public on December 3, 2025, and ABIB posted about the filing on social media.

The complainants singled out passages that they say described Bitcoin largely as a tool for criminals and painted it as having little or no legitimate use. They pointed to sections that, in their view, ignored examples of Bitcoin being used for grid balancing and for humanitarian transfers.

— Australian Bitcoin Industry Body (@AusBTCIndBody) December 2, 2025

ABC Coverage Focused On Money-Laundering Concerns

Reports have disclosed that ABC ran pieces discussing the changing role of Bitcoin in illicit flows, including a recent story that examined whether Bitcoin is losing ground to stablecoins such as Tether when used in money-laundering. That report drew particular ire from ABIB.

Industry Group Says Numbers And Context Were Missing

ABIB has argued that some context and figures were omitted from ABC’s coverage. One outlet summarized ABIB’s broader claim that media depiction was skewed at a time when adoption figures — sometimes cited at about 31% nationally in related coverage — should also be part of the public debate.

What Happens Next And Possible Escalation

If ABC does not satisfy ABIB’s complaint within 60 days, the matter could be escalated to Australia’s communications regulator for review. That regulator can investigate whether editorial standards were breached and recommend corrective action or other remedies.

Pushback From Media And Regulators Will Matter

Some newsrooms say robust coverage of risks is their duty. Others in the crypto sector argue that balanced reporting should include both harms and legitimate uses. The dispute highlights tensions as regulators, media and industry all jockey to shape public understanding while new rules for crypto take form.

Headlines And Policy Talk

Reports show ABC has recently run several finance and crypto pieces, including coverage of price moves and policy debates. One ABC item referenced US President Donald Trump in its discussion of political moves that have touched crypto policy. That inclusion was noted in pushback from industry groups.

ABIB Wants Clear Corrections, Not Just Apologies

According to ABIB, the aim is not to silence scrutiny but to ensure facts are correct for readers and for policymakers. The group says accurate public reporting matters because it can shape future regulation and public trust. Multiple news outlets have covered ABIB’s action and quoted its request that ABC publish corrections where errors are found.

On average, December is a positive month for the Dogecoin price, given that some of its wildest rallies have happened during the last month of the year. However, there are still instances where the Dogecoin price has seen major crashes in the month of December, and that could play out once again here. Using data from the CryptoRank website, this report takes a look at how the Dogecoin price has performed in the month of December in recent years, based on its performance in November.

Dogecoin Price Closes November In The Red

The crypto market has had a rough couple of months, and the Dogecoin price has not been left out of this. The last quarter of the year has so far been incredibly bearish, with the meme coin suffering major price crashes in the last two years. CryptoRank data shows that both the months of October and November have ended with double-digit losses, with -20% and -21.3% declines, respectively.

In recent years, the Dogecoin price ending the month of November in the red has led to similar bearish momentum in December. Looking at the last five years, spanning from the last bull cycle into the current one, the months where November has ended in the red have set the tone for the rest of the year.

This was the case back in 2021, when the Dogecoin price saw a -23.4% loss in November, and the following month of December saw a similar -20.7% decline. Then again, in 2022, the trend played out again when November finished in -14.6% in the red, and then December followed up with an even bigger -34.7% crash.

In 2025, the month of November ended with a -21.3% crash, and if this trend holds, then it means that the Dogecoin price could see a double-digit crash in December. Going by the similar previous performances, this could result in a 20% decline in the Dogecoin price.

With the back-to-back declines from the last two months, the Dogecoin price seems to be on track to end the last quarter of the year in the red. So far, the Q4 returns have come out negative at -37.4%, marking the first time in the last four years that the meme coin will be ending Q4 in the red.

Over the past few weeks, the price of Ethereum has been on a downward trend due to a highly volatile market environment. ETH’s bearish action appears to have hampered on-chain activities, as evidenced by a decline in its total transactions carried out within a monthly period.

A Quiet Month For The Ethereum Network

Ethereum’s on-chain activity appears to have slowed down alongside the ongoing decline of ETH’s price. The blockchain, which is typically bustling with contract calls, exchanges, and transfers, now feels a little more roomy, suggesting a cooling pulse beneath the surface.

After examining the Transactions on the Ethereum Network metric in the monthly time frame, Everstake.eth, a market analyst and the head of the ETH segment at Everstake, revealed that the blockchain has recorded its worst month of the year. While price has declined, ETH’s total transactions executed in a month, particularly November, experienced a cool-off.

According to the data, the overall number of transactions carried out on the Ethereum network in November alone was approximately 32.2 million. Although this figure may seem large, it actually marks the lowest monthly count in the past 12 months.

Such a drop in transactions may suggest the renewed waning appetite for the network. In addition to suggesting a retreat, this delay reads more like a collective pause as users catch their breath, procedures recalibrating, and the market adjusting to its new rhythm. 

Everstake.eth highlighted that this kind of cooldown usually occurs when the market moves into a wait-and-see phase. During this phase, capital is observed sitting on the sidelines while developers continue to build on the blockchain. Despite this trend, the network still records more than 33 million transactions in a quiet month, which reflects its robust strength.

At a time like this, the expert noted that user behavior typically follows the market sentiment. As seen in the past, on-chain activity tends to cool down when volatility drops. However, Ethereum still retains the status as the most reliable network even during slow phases.

With the Fusaka Upgrade set to hit the market, Everstake.eth predicts that ETH transactions will see explosive growth. “If this is the worst month, imagine what the best will look like after Fusaka rolls out. It will be huge,” the expert stated.

ETH Active Transactions Pick Up

The monthly transactions may have slowed down, but the active addresses on the Ethereum network are heating up again. Leon Waidmann, the head of research at On-Chain Foundation, reported that active addresses throughout the entire ecosystem, Layer 1 and Layer 2s, bounced back above 9.5 million this week.

This surge points to a quiet resurgence of interest, utility, or a group readiness for the future. Waidmann highlighted that this marks the first meaningful reversal after several weeks of downside action.

ETH layer 2s such as Base, Arbitrum, Optimism, and World Chain have witnessed a strong rebound following a period of decline. Furthermore, multi-chain activity is starting to stabilize after the drop in Q3. These factors are painting a bullish picture for the network and its price prospects.

Since launching in mid-November 2025, institutional demand for XRP ETFs has climbed beyond the inflows recorded for the crypto market’s two largest assets, Bitcoin and Ethereum. The latest numbers show how quickly capital allocation has shifted, placing XRP at a defining advantage in an increasingly competitive market.

XRP ETFs Inflow Profile Establishes Category Leadership

The first wave of US spot XRP ETFs launched on November 13, led by Canary Capital’s XRPC, which opened with $243.05 million in first-day inflows and has since maintained consistent positive flows, frequently exceeding $100 million in single-day inflows. Across the four active issuers—Canary Capital (XRPC), Bitwise (XRP), Grayscale (GXRP), and Franklin Templeton (XRPZ)—cumulative net inflows have now surpassed $756 million, according to SoSoValue data. 

Daily performance across the broader market has followed the same strong pattern. XRP ETFs saw $243.05 million in inflows on November 14, $118.15 million on November 20, and $164.04 million on November 24. By December 1, it secured another $89.65 million, reinforcing the steadiness of demand throughout the launch phase.

Together, these numbers place XRP ahead of every other non-stablecoin asset in ETF inflows over the same period. Independent reports also show that the category gathered $587 million within its first ten trading days, surpassing early benchmarks set by previous altcoin ETF rollouts—including those tied to Bitcoin and Ethereum.

Institutional Capital Flows Favor XRP Over Bitcoin And Ethereum

XRP ETFs’ inflow performance becomes even more pronounced when compared with contemporaneous Bitcoin and Ethereum ETF inflows. On December 1, Bitcoin ETFs recorded $8.48 million in net inflows—roughly one-tenth of XRP’s same-day figure. By contrast, Ethereum ETFs reported more than $79 million in net outflows, continuing a multi-week trend of capital rotation away from ETH-linked products.

This divergence underscores a clear reallocation dynamic in the US market. While Bitcoin and Ethereum remain the dominant assets by AUM, inflow velocity has shifted decisively. XRP’s ability to attract more cumulative net inflows than the leading two crypto assets—despite launching later and holding a smaller market capitalization—marks a material development in ETF-driven capital flows.

The launch sequencing provides additional clarity. Franklin Templeton’s XRPZ and Grayscale’s GXRP both delivered standout debuts, recording $62.6 million and $67.4 million in first-day inflows, respectively, marking the strongest ETF launches of 2025 to date. This surge contributed to a broader inflow cycle that added roughly $300 million across the XRP ETF ecosystem, propelling XRP into the top tier of crypto ETFs by net new capital, despite the underlying asset remaining below key price resistance levels.

Data from multiple independent trackers shows that XRP ETFs have recently recorded higher net inflows than Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs. Across the tracked XRP ETF issuers, inflows have been consistently strong, indicating a notable shift in investor capital allocation among newly launched digital-asset ETFs.

Shiba Inu’s core development team is escalating its response to the Shibarium bridge exploit after a new on-chain investigation mapped the hacker’s Tornado Cash laundering trail to KuCoin deposit accounts. Reacting to on-chain sleuth Shima (@MRShimamoto) on X, core developer Kaal Dhairya wrote “Great work! This needs to be amplified. I will also ensure it’s sent to the FBI attached to the open investigation report and request Kucoin to cooperate.”

Shiba Inu Sleuth Exposes Shibarium Hacker

The Shibarium bridge was exploited in mid-September in an attack estimated at around $2.3–$2.4 million, after the perpetrator seized a super-majority of validator keys and withdrew assets including ETH, SHIB and KNINE. K9 Finance DAO, Shibarium’s liquid-staking partner, launched a bounty process that started at 5 ETH, later advanced to a 20 ETH smart-contract offer and ultimately to a final 25 ETH proposal endorsed directly by the Shiba Inu team. The exploiter never accepted, and K9 Finance has since confirmed that the unclaimed ETH in the bounty contract has been returned to contributors, with Shib.io receiving back 20 ETH.

In a detailed 1 December thread, Shima said the “Shibarium Bridge hacker foolishly chose not to accept the K9 bounty – it’s finally time to share the investigation we’ve been working on,” describing months of tracing that involved thousands of transactions and 111 wallets. His reconstruction shows 260 ETH flowing from exploit-linked wallets into Tornado Cash, with 232.49 ETH ultimately reaching KuCoin through 48 deposits into 45 unique KuCoin deposit addresses, which he believes are largely operated by money mules rather than the hacker directly.

According to his write-up and an accompanying MetaSleuth dashboard, the trail begins with the original exploit address and nine “dumping” wallets. Those wallets received the stolen tokens, liquidated them gradually for ETH over roughly a week, and sent a total of 260 ETH into Tornado Cash. Of that amount, 250 ETH entered the mixer’s 10-ETH pool and 10 ETH the 1-ETH pool in an attempt to break on-chain linkability between the hack and any later withdrawals.

The critical breakthrough, Shima says, came about forty days after the exploit. A wallet already tied to the hacker cluster sent exactly 0.0874 ETH to what was intended to be a clean Tornado withdrawal wallet. That minor top-up, he describes as “one stupid mistake” that “completely unravelled their Tornado Cash laundering,” because it established a direct on-chain connection between the exploit side of the graph and a supposedly anonymous post-mixer address. From that contaminated node he was able to work outward, clustering multiple Tornado withdrawal wallets, intermediaries and final KuCoin “funnel” wallets.

Shima reports that each funnel wallet typically routes funds to two KuCoin deposit addresses, creating a final cluster of 45 KuCoin endpoints and roughly two dozen depositors that he argues can be treated as money-mule cash-out accounts. He says the full address list, transaction graph and methodology were first shared privately with the Shibarium team so they could approach law enforcement and KuCoin while any funds remained within reach. However, he recounts that KuCoin’s fraud desk insisted on receiving a formal law-enforcement case number before acting on the evidence.

The official ShibariumNet X account has now publicly backed the research: “Thanks to @MRShimamoto for doing all the hard work here to compile this thread. We truly appreciate your diligence and methodical approach. Hopefully this investigation can continue with the help of the proper authorities. The communities need answers.”

At press time, Shiba Inu (SHIB) traded at $0.00000878

Crypto firm Ripple has revealed how it is capturing the projected $16 trillion tokenization industry by onboarding several institutions onto the XRP Ledger (XRPL). The firm alluded to security and how its custody service is helping solve this issue. 

Ripple Comments On How It Is Capturing The Tokenization Industry Using XRP Ledger

In an X post, Ripple indicated that it has managed to capture some of the projected $16 trillion industry onto the XRP Ledger through the adequate security it provides institutions. The crypto firm stated that it provides a security environment that mirrors the rigor of the banks it serves, combining HSM with FIPS-certified hardware to deliver security that scales. That way, they can protect assets without sacrificing operational speed. 

Ripple further noted that legitimate integration with the global financial system requires verification. That is why they adhere to SOC 2 Type II and ISO 27001 standards, ensuring that the infrastructure of these institutions that tokenize on the XRP Ledger is compliant with necessary regulations.  

Commenting on this, Ripple’s Head of Information Security, Akshay Wattal, said that in crypto, security isn’t a feature but the foundation of institutional trust. He added that effective custody requires in-depth architecture, battle-tested cryptography, and the governance rigor of a global financial institution. 

Notably, Ripple provides custody solutions to global banks, including BBVA, SG Fogre, DBS Bank, and DZ Bank. However, these banks are yet to tokenize on the XRP Ledger even as institutions move to tap into this $16 trillion industry. The crypto firm continues to propose several ways to onboard these institutions onto the network. 

One of Ripple’s proposals is the introduction of Confidential Multi-Purpose Tokens (MPTs) on the XRP Ledger in order to provide privacy for these institutions. The company’s developer, Ayo Akinyele, also recently proposed native XRP staking on the network, which could compel these institutions to build on XRPL, as they can earn yields while doing so. 

Progress On Other Sides Of Its Business

In addition to its custody service, Ripple is also making progress in other areas of its operations, which also drives value to the XRP Ledger. The company announced yesterday that it had partnered with fintech company RedotPay, which has integrated Ripple Payments to launch a crypto conversion feature for Nigerian users. 

The development also provides a huge boost for XRP, which will be one of the supported assets on RedotPay’s “Send Crypto, Receive NGN” feature. Ripple revealed that there are plans to support its RLSUD stablecoin in the future. Meanwhile, Bitcoinist reported that the crypto firm had scored a major win after the Monetary Authority of Singapore approved an expanded scope of payment activities for the company. This enables Ripple to broaden the range of regulated payment services it offers in the country.

In a significant development, the bearish action of the Solana price is currently spilling into the SOL-backed Treasury reserves. A recent report shows that corporate treasury companies are experiencing a sharp decline in their SOL holdings in the shadow of broader market unease.

Corporate Solana Reserves Continue To Bleed

Solana is experiencing a notable development that is capable of shaping its next market direction. Ted Pillows, a market expert and investor, shared on the X platform that the corporate treasuries of Solana are sinking further as the price of SOL struggles to regain upward traction.

According to the expert, SOL treasury companies are making new lows that echo through the on-chain corridors of the network. This implied that the wallets previously renowned for their steady accumulation are now showing diminishing conviction as balances discreetly shrink in the current bearish market phase.

The trend shows how institutional Solana holders are adjusting in the face of tightened liquidity and increased volatility, but it’s not a sudden exodus. Rather, it may be a steady, calculated exhalation.

Pillows highlighted that this drop to new lows is a major reason why the price of SOL has been performing badly, as buying demand has faded among institutional investors. Until these companies recover, the expert is confident that a recovery in SOL will be difficult.

However, Solana has started throwing up a quiet flare, one that heralds a recovery. After examining the altcoin’s price action on the weekly time frame, Ali Martinez, a crypto analyst and trader, revealed that SOL is flashing a bullish signal that points to a potential upward move. 

Martinez’s analysis hinges on the key Tom DeMark (TD) Sequential indicator. Since March 2023, the TD Sequential has proven to be very accurate when it comes to identifying SOL trend shifts on the weekly chart. During the ongoing bearish wave, the indicator is flashing a buy signal, suggesting that Solana is likely gearing up for a bounce.

SOL Activity Is On The Rise

Despite Solan’s price facing volatility, the leading network continues to wax strong as activity grows. In a post on X, Solana Daily disclosed that the network’s x402 activity is accelerating at a pace that feels more like an explosion this week. Currently, transactions are broadening, participation is expanding, and on-chain discussion is rising in the community.

The platform highlighted that the daily transaction volume on the protocol reached a new all-time high with approximately $380,000 processed on November 30 alone. This move to a new peak represents a 750% Week-over-Week (WoW) surge.

Furthermore, Solana has flipped the chart in dollar volume for the first time since its inception. With x402 transactions reaching new highs and a flip in dollar volume, the network is emerging as the most active in the cohort.

Il mercato delle criptovalute ha messo a segno un rimbalzo drammatico questa settimana, con il prezzo di Bitcoin che ha superato di slancio i 92.000$ ed Ethereum che si è arrampicato nuovamente sopra i 3.000$. Questa rapida ripresa (“V-shape recovery”) dei due principali asset digitali ha catturato l’attenzione del mercato, e gli analisti stanno ora condividendo la causa principale di questo “pump” inaspettato.

Perché i prezzi di Bitcoin ed Ethereum stanno rimbalzando

Attualmente Bitcoin scambia sopra i $93.000 dopo aver vissuto un periodo di vendite accelerate e pesanti liquidazioni delle posizioni Long che avevano brevemente spinto il prezzo al ribasso nelle ultime settimane. Ora che la vendita forzata si è attenuata, la criptovaluta ha recuperato in modo significativo, aggiungendo l’incredibile cifra di 75 miliardi di dollari alla sua capitalizzazione di mercato nel giro di sole 10 ore.

Ethereum ha seguito la stessa scia rialzista. I dati di CoinMarketCap mostrano che ETH ha guadagnato più del 9% nelle ultime 24 ore, con un accumulo costante che ha spinto il prezzo sopra i $3.050.

L’Analisi: Acquisti istituzionali coordinati o manipolazione?

L’analista di mercato Wimar.X ha spiegato il motivo dietro l’improvvisa impennata dei prezzi. Ha inquadrato la rinascita come un’ondata rapida di acquisti istituzionali coordinati ad alto volume. In parole povere, il mercato è “pompato” perché si è verificato un accumulo massiccio concentrato in una singola ora.

I dati di Arkham Intelligence confermano questa tesi, tracciando i movimenti delle “balene” e dei market maker poco prima del surge:

• Wintermute: Ha acquistato 8.577 BTC.
• Binance (il più grande exchange al mondo): Ha acquisito 7.658 BTC.
• Whale Wallet (portafoglio sconosciuto): Ha aggiunto 6.010 BTC al portafoglio.
• BitMEX (exchange co-fondato da Arthur Hayes): Ha accumulato 5.818 BTC.
• Bitfinex: Ha assorbito 5.778 BTC.

Secondo l’analisi di Wimar.X, questo accumulo improvviso e la sua tempistica appaiono coordinati. Ha descritto l’attività quasi come una forma di manipolazione, suggerendo che fosse intesa a influenzare la percezione del mercato e a spostare artificialmente i prezzi verso l’alto per innescare la FOMO.

Le previsioni degli analisti: Cosa succede ora?

Mentre il mercato mostra nuova forza e BTC recupera i $90.000, l’esperto crypto Michael van de Poppe ha sottolineato su X l’importanza di questo rimbalzo. Ha notato che il recente calo di Bitcoin all’inizio del mese appariva “insolito”, ma è stato seguito da una reazione forte. Secondo l’analista, il mantenimento sopra i $92.000 sarà critico per Bitcoin e potrebbe spianare la strada verso un nuovo massimo storico (ATH) e un potenziale test dei $100.000.

Dall’altra parte, l’analista identificato come ‘More Crypto Online’ si è concentrato su Ethereum. Ha dichiarato che ETH sta attualmente testando una zona di “micro supporto” tra $2.907 e $2.974. Mantenere quest’area è cruciale per sostenere il momentum rialzista iniziato questa settimana.

• Target ETH: La prossima finestra di rialzo si trova tra $3.165 e $3.210.
• Rischio: Una rottura sotto il livello di supporto inferiore potrebbe innescare un’onda correttiva più profonda. Tuttavia, i trend attuali suggeriscono che ETH punta principalmente verso l’alto.

The crypto market delivered a dramatic rebound this week, with the Bitcoin price vaulting above $92,000 and Ethereum climbing back over $3,000. The sharp recovery in both leading cryptocurrencies has caught the market’s attention, with analysts now sharing the major reason for the unexpected pump. 

Why The Ethereum And Bitcoin Price Are Rebounding

Bitcoin is currently trading above $93,000 after experiencing a period of accelerated selling and heavy long liquidations that had briefly pushed its price down over the past few weeks. Now that forced selling has eased, the cryptocurrency has recovered significantly, adding an astonishing $75 billion to its market capitalization within 10 hours. 

Ethereum has followed the same upward swing. Data from CoinMarketCap shows that ETH has gained more than 9% in the past 24 hours, with steady accumulation pushing its price above $3,050. 

Crypto market analyst Wimar.X has explained the reason behind the sudden surge in both Bitcoin and Ethereum prices. He framed the resurgence as a rapid wave of high-volume coordinated institutional buying. In his words, the market pumped because a massive round of accumulation occurred within a single hour. 

Data from Arkham Intelligence shows that Wintermute, a leading algorithmic trading firm, had bought 8,577 BTC ahead of the market surge. Binance, the world’s largest crypto exchange, also acquired 7,658 BTC, while a major whale wallet added 6,010 BTC to its portfolio. Finally, BitMEX, a crypto exchange co-founded by Arthur Hayes, reportedly accumulated 5,818 BTC, while Bitfinex absorbed 5,778 BTC. 

According to Wimar.X analysis, the sudden accumulation and its timing appear coordinated. He described the activity as manipulation, implying that it was intended to influence market perception and artificially sway prices. 

Analysts Share Outlook For Bitcoin And Ethereum Price After Pump

As the crypto market showed renewed strength and BTC recovered above $90,000, crypto expert Michael van de Poppe took to X to highlight the significance of the rebound. He noted that the recent dip in Bitcoin’s price at the start of the month appeared unusual but was followed by a strong bounce. According to the analyst, surpassing $92,000 will be critical for Bitcoin and could pave the way for a new all-time high and a potential test of $100,000. 

On the other hand, a market analyst identified as ‘More Crypto Online’ on X has stated that Ethereum is currently testing the micro support zone between $2,907 and $2,974. He noted that holding this support area is crucial for sustaining the upward momentum that began earlier this week.

As a result, the analyst has predicted that Ethereum’s next upside window sits between $3,165 and $3,210. He cautioned that a breach below the lower support level could trigger a deeper corrective wave. However, current trends suggest that ETH is mainly aiming higher. 

Quick Facts:

• Analysts claim Bitcoin could rally to $100K once it holds the resistance point above $92K, while also suggesting a potential new ATH.
• As Bitcoin grinds higher, structural demand is building for infrastructure that delivers cheap, programmable, $BTC‑secured transactions instead of just speculative price exposure.
• Bitcoin Hyper combines Bitcoin settlement with an SVM execution layer to attack Bitcoin’s speed, cost, and programmability limitations within a single modular architecture.
• $HYPER reached $28.9M in presale so far and shows potential for a 2026 ROI of 1,396%; 11,123% by 2030 once the project hits the mainstream.

Bitcoin’s rebound into a major resistance band has traders dusting off six-figure price targets, with several desks now openly talking about a push toward $100K if spot demand holds.

Instead of feeling like a dead-cat bounce, this looks and trades more like the early stages of a new leg in the cycle.

Michael van de Poppe thinks that resistance at the $92K price point is critical for a potential $100K-and-beyond run, going so far as to suggest another ATH.

The good news is that Bitcoin is already trading at $93K at the time of writing. The even better news is that this doesn’t seem like a temporary bump; the 7% push over the last week suggests sustained momentum.

You’re also seeing the usual pattern that defined previous bull extensions: Bitcoin moves first, then high‑beta plays tied to its infrastructure start to outperform. In 2020–21 that meant exchanges, DeFi blue chips, and smart-contract platforms. This time, the rotation narrative is increasingly pointing at Bitcoin layer 2s.

The logic is straightforward. If Bitcoin takes out resistance and grinds higher, demand for cheaper, faster, more programmable Bitcoin exposure typically explodes. Users want $BTC-secured assets that can actually do things: trade, lend, borrow, game, and settle payments at scale.

That’s the gap next‑gen Bitcoin L2s are racing to fill.

This is where Bitcoin Hyper ($HYPER) slots in as a higher‑beta ecosystem play on sustained $BTC strength.

By combining a Bitcoin settlement layer with Solana‑style performance through an integrated SVM execution layer, it positions itself as a leveraged way to express a utility thesis, not just a ‘number go up’ bet.

Why Bitcoin’s Next Leg Is About Programmability, Not Just Price

Each major Bitcoin breakout has exposed the same structural issue: the base layer was never designed for thousands of transactions per second, sub‑second finality, or complex smart contracts.

Fees spike, blocks clog, and developers are forced to build elsewhere while trying to bolt on synthetic $BTC exposure.

That’s why you’re seeing a wave of infrastructure plays focused on scaling and programmability.

Lightning targets peer‑to‑peer payments, while projects like Stacks and Rootstock push EVM‑style programmability anchored to Bitcoin. Others experiment with rollups and sidechains, each making a different trade‑off between speed, security, and composability.

In that crowd, Bitcoin Hyper ($HYPER) is one of several emerging contenders, but with a different starting point: it leans into Solana’s Virtual Machine and high‑throughput design while treating Bitcoin as the settlement and trust anchor.

The trademark Canonical Bridge produces the wrapped $BTC on Bitcoin Hyper’s Layer 2 ecosystem with near-instant finality, cutting down waiting times and consequently lowering transaction costs considerably.

For traders thinking about the ‘higher‑beta to $BTC’ trade, that kind of architecture is where a lot of speculative and real activity is likely to converge.

How Bitcoin Hyper Turns Bitcoin Into a High-Speed DeFi Base

Zooming in, Bitcoin Hyper ($HYPER) pitches itself as the first Bitcoin layer 2 to integrate the Solana Virtual Machine directly on top of a Bitcoin settlement layer. In plain terms, you get Solana‑style parallel execution and low‑latency processing while final state roots regularly anchor back to Bitcoin for security and credibility.

The L2 uses a modular setup: Bitcoin L1 for settlement and a real‑time SVM L2 for execution, with a single sequencer batching and posting state to mainnet.

That enables extremely low‑latency transaction processing and high‑throughput smart contracts that, according to the team, can even surpass Solana’s effective performance for specific workloads, while using modified SPL‑compatible tokens tailored to the L2 environment.

The presale has already raised over $28.9M with $HYPER priced at $0.013365, which shows a lot of long-term potential.

Based on the project’s utility and presale performance, our price prediction for $HYPER considers a 2026 price target of $0.20. Based on the current presale price of $0.013365, this represents a 1,396% potential ROI.

With sufficient market support, we could see a $1.50 $HYPER by 2030, delivering a wealth-building 11,123% ROI. It all comes down to the team checking the project’s developmental milestones and $HYPER managing to rally the market behind it.

If these numbers check, $HYPER could become the next crypto to explode in 2026.

Bitcoin Hyper targets a release window of Q4 2025-Q1 2026, so the time is not on your side. If you decide to invest, make sure you read our guide on how to buy $HYPER first.

Buy $HYPER today before the presale ends.

Oslabujúci dolár, očakávané zníženie úrokových sadzieb americkým Fedom a rastúca aktivita na spotových ETF fondoch formujú nové podmienky pre decembrový trh. Bitcoin sa opäť obchoduje nad úrovňou 92 000 $ a aj altcoiny naznačujú zmenu trhovej dynamiky. Je december vhodným časom na nákup?

Preskúmať top predpredaj 2025

Cena Bitcoinu stúpla o viac ako 6 % za posledný týždeň

Bitcoin sa dnes obchoduje za 92 981 $. V priebehu posledných 7 dní posilnil o 6,15 % a zotavil časť novembrových strát, ktoré patrili k najvýraznejším od roku 2021. Nárast objemov v spotových ETF, najmä po tom, čo Vanguard zrušil obmedzenie obchodovania s Bitcoin ETF, podporil nový prílev kapitálu do trhu.

Len samotný fond IBIT spoločnosti BlackRock dosiahol miliardové objemy už v prvých minútach obchodovania po otvorení amerického trhu.

Prelomenie hranice 93 000 dolárov by podľa analytikov Glassnode mohlo vyvolať krátkodobý short squeeze, ktorý by cenu vystrelil smerom k 95-100 tisíc $. Zároveň platí, že pokiaľ Bitcoin zostane nad úrovňou 80 tisíc $, trh si udrží býčí výhľad. Makro faktorom dominuje očakávanie, že Fed už budúci týždeň pristúpi k zníženiu sadzieb, ktoré tradične podporuje rizikové aktíva vrátane kryptomien.

Euro posilňuje v očakávaní rozhodnutia americkej centrálnej banky. Dolár oslabil tento rok o takmer 7 %

Euro v úvode decembra posilňuje a prelomilo svoj 50-dňový kĺzavý priemer po tom, čo inflácia v eurozóne mierne prekonala očakávania. Spoločná mena sa aktuálne obchoduje pri úrovni 1,1640 dolára a smeruje k najlepšiemu ročnému výkonu od roku 2017. Trh tak reaguje na kombináciu priaznivých európskych makrodát a slabnúceho amerického dolára, ktorý v tomto roku stratil takmer 7 % hodnoty na indexe DXY.

Investori sa zároveň pripravujú na zasadnutie Federálneho rezervného systému, ktorý sa uskutoční už budúci týždeň. Podľa údajov platformy Polymarket vyskočila pravdepodobnosť, že Fed pristúpi k ďalšiemu zníženiu sadzieb až 93 %.

Práve toto očakávanie patrí medzi hlavné dôvody oslabenia dolára. Americká mena sa totiž stáva menej atraktívnou v prostredí, kde sa úrokový diferenciál medzi USA a ostatnými ekonomikami rýchlo zužuje. Odborníci upozorňujú, že aj malé náznaky holubičej rétoriky Fedu by mohli spôsobiť ďalší pokles dolára v druhej polovici decembra.

Naopak, Európska centrálna banka neplánuje bezprostredné znižovanie sadzieb a trhy započítavajú iba približne 25 % pravdepodobnosť uvoľnenia menovej politiky v roku 2026. Tento kontrast medzi Fedom a ECB hrá v prospech eura, ktoré zostáva podporované stabilnou politikou ECB a slabnúcou americkou menou.

Makro pohyby na devízových trhoch tak vytvárajú prostredie priaznivé pre rizikové aktíva vrátane kryptomien. Slabší dolár totiž historicky podporuje dopyt po Bitcoine, altcoinoch a ďalších volatilnejších aktívach.

Altcoiny naznačujú budúci rast. Ethereum si polepšilo o 9 %

Popri Bitcoine sa nálada zlepšuje aj v segmente altcoinov. Celková trhová kapitalizácia kryptomien stúpla na 3,14 bilióna dolárov, čo predstavuje 6,84 % denný nárast. A práve altcoiny ťahajú značnú časť tohto impulzu. Ethereum (ETH) vzrástlo za posledných 24 hodín o 8,80 % a jeho cena sa drží nad 3 052 dolármi. Rast podporuje návrat likvidity na trh a klesajúca dominancia Bitcoinu, ktorá vytvára priestor pre širšiu altcoinovú rally.

XRP taktiež potvrdzuje posilnenie sentimentu. S 8,27 % denným nárastom patrí medzi najvýkonnejšie veľké altcoiny, pričom jeho trhová kapitalizácia presiahla už 131,6 miliardy dolárov. Súčasne rastie aj dopyt po XRP ETF fondoch, ktoré pritiahli tento týždeň už viac ako 157 miliónov dolárov.

Súčasne, natívna kryptomena populárneho blockchainu pre meme coiny Solana (SOL), si pripísala za posledný deň 12 %. Celkovo si tak polepšila o takmer 4 % za týždeň. Záujem investorov podporuje vysoká aktivita v DeFi a rastúce množstvo nových aplikácií v jej ekosystéme.

Stablecoin Tether (USDT) zostáva najväčším zdrojom likvidity na trhu, čo je viditeľné z vysokého 24-hodinového objemu 128,2 miliardy dolárov Ide o jasný signál, že obchodníci aktívne rotujú kapitál medzi hlavnými altcoinmi. Súčasné trhové ukazovatele vytvárajú konzistentný obraz prostredia, v ktorom sa altcoiny presadzujú čoraz výraznejšie.

Rastový impulz v segmente altcoinov zároveň vytvára priaznivé podmienky pre nové kryptomeny, ktoré práve v tomto období vstupujú na trh. Investori po mesiacoch opatrnosti opäť rozširujú expozíciu voči projektom s vyšším potenciálom, čo zvyšuje záujem o kvalitné predpredaje. V tejto skupine aktuálne dominuje projekt Bitcoin Hyper, ktorý počas prebiehajúceho predpredaja už získal viac než 28 miliónov dolárov.

Layer 2 architektúra Bitcoin Hyper prináša pre BTC novú úroveň využitia

Základom projektu Bitcoin Hyper (HYPER) je snaha prepojiť vysokú bezpečnosť Bitcoinovej siete s výkonnosťou moderných blockchainových architektúr. HyperChain používa Solana Virtual Machine (SVM) ako výpočtovú vrstvu, no finálne osadenie transakcií sa rieši na Bitcoinovom Layer 1.

V praxi to znamená, že DeFi aplikácie môžu využívať nízke poplatky a vysoké TPS, kým Bitcoin zostáva konečnou autoritou pre zúčtovanie. Súčasťou riešenia je aj mechanizmus canonical bridge, v ktorom sa BTC uzamkne na základnej vrstve a jeho zabalená verzia sa následne používa v prostredí Bitcoin Hyper. Tým sa otvára priestor pre reálne ekonomické aktivity, ktoré Bitcoin doteraz nepodporoval.

Natívny token HYPER zohráva v ekosystéme ústrednú úlohu. Držitelia ho využijú ako:

• platidlo na úhradu transakčných poplatkov
• zdroj pasívnych príjmov za staking (aktuálne ponúka 40 % APY)
• hlasovacie právo pri rozhodovaní o budúcom vývoji ekosystému v rámci DAO
• investičný nástroj na zhodnotenie kapitálu v trhovom prostredí

Aktuálna cena kryptomeny HYPER v predpredaji je 0,013365 $, pričom do uzavretia predpredaja zostáva už len niekoľko dní. Silný záujem retailových investorov dopĺňajú aj výrazné kapitálové vstupy zo strany veľrýb, čo zvyšuje dôveru v dlhodobejšiu víziu projektu.

Pre mnohých investorov predstavuje Bitcoin Hyper riešenie, ktoré môže Bitcoinu priniesť funkcionalitu, aká mu doteraz chýbala. Nová Layer-2 vrstva umožňuje obchodníkom aj vývojárom využívať BTC v moderných decentralizovaných aplikáciách, pokročilých DeFi riešeniach, ekosystémoch založených na meme tokenoch či v rámci smart kontraktov.

Tvorcovia projektu zároveň stavili na výraznú vizuálnu identitu, ktorá pracuje s hravým a virálnym potenciálom značky. Novú sieť reprezentuje postava Hyper, využívaná v meme formáte s estetikou superhrdinu, ktorá sprevádza jednotlivé fázy vývoja projektu.

Michael Burry has escalated his long-running war on Bitcoin, calling it “the tulip bulb of our time” and insisting it is “not worth anything.” Speaking on Michael Lewis’ “Against the Rules: The Big Short Companion” podcast released on December 2, Burry recoiled at how normalized such valuations have become in financial media.

Burry Revives Tulip Bubble Comparison For Bitcoin

“I think that Bitcoin at $100,000 is the most ridiculous thing,” he said. “Sane people are sitting on TV talking about Bitcoin, they’re just casually, ‘it’s 100,000, it’s down now, it’s 98,000.’ It’s not worth anything. Everybody’s accepted it. It’s the tulip bulb of our time.” He then pushed the analogy further: “It’s worse than a tulip bulb because this has enabled so much criminal activity to go deep under.”

The exchange was triggered when Lewis asked whether Burry’s “institutional pessimism” nudged him toward refuges like “Bitcoin or gold or one of these refuges that people” talk about. Burry rejected Bitcoin outright and drew a sharp contrast with his own positioning: “I have had gold since 2005.” In his framework, Bitcoin is not “digital gold” but a speculative token whose perceived value rests on social consensus and leverage, while simultaneously, in his view, providing a powerful channel for illicit flows rather than productive capital formation.

Burry’s critique is consistent with his broader view that markets are again trapped in a cross-asset bubble driven by narrative and cheap money rather than fundamentals. But he does not present himself as a crypto macro-trader looking to time Bitcoin’s next leg lower. Instead, Bitcoin appears in the interview as a kind of exhibit A in a system that, he argues, has once more stopped asking what anything is intrinsically worth and simply extrapolates price action and stories.

Burry’s Critique Is Not New

The podcast marks the latest chapter in a Bitcoin skepticism that Burry has been voicing since the last cycle. In late February 2021, with BTC near its then-record zone, he tweeted that “BTC is a speculative bubble that poses more risk than opportunity despite most of the proponents being correct in their arguments for why it is relevant at this point in history,” adding a warning on hidden leverage: “If you do not know how much leverage is involved in the run-up, you may not know enough to own it.”

By June 2021, as meme stocks and crypto surged together, Burry widened the lens. He described the environment as the “greatest speculative bubble of all time in all things. By two orders of magnitude,” and cautioned that “all hype/speculation is doing is drawing in retail before the mother of all crashes,” explicitly including cryptocurrencies in that warning.

Today’s “tulip bulb” broadside on Lewis’ podcast does not represent a new stance so much as the culmination of that trajectory: from calling Bitcoin a leveraged “speculative bubble” in early 2021 to declaring in 2025 that, at the kinds of levels now discussed on television, it is simply “not worth anything” at all.

At press time, BTC traded at $93,226.

Quick Facts:

• The market puts the odds of Kevin Hassett becoming the next Fed chair at 84% and waits for Trump to make the announcement.
• A crypto-friendly Hassett could revitalize the market and bring more investors in, effectively ending the current bear market.
• Bitcoin Hyper uses SVM-based execution to bring scalable smart contracts and DeFi to Bitcoin, offering a higher-octane way to ride a long-term $BTC bull thesis.
• $HYPER raised over $28.8M in presale so far and is positioned for a post-launch ROI of 1,396% in 2026 and 11,123% or higher by 2030.

Donald Trump floating former White House economist Kevin Hassett as a ‘potential Fed chair’ is more than a personnel rumor.

Kalshi’s prediction puts the odds at 84% and growing, while The Kobeissi Letter already sees it as a one-and-done, with the mention that ‘2026 is going to be a wild year.’

If confirmed, the arrival of Kevin Hassett at the helm would spell good news for crypto.

A more dovish, crypto-tolerant Federal Reserve would structurally lower the hurdle for risk assets.

Cheaper capital and less aggressive tightening historically favor high-beta trades, from tech equities to altcoins. If Bitcoin is the macro bellwether in this environment, Bitcoin-linked leverage plays could become the next logical step for conviction bulls.

But there’s a catch: Bitcoin’s base layer still processes roughly seven transactions per second, with fees that can spike into double digits during congestion and no native smart contracts.

That’s where Bitcoin Hyper ($HYPER) comes into focus. It positions itself as a Bitcoin Layer 2 with Solana Virtual Machine (SVM) integration, designed to give you Solana-style performance and programmable DeFi rails while still anchoring to Bitcoin’s settlement layer.

Read this to learn more about what Bitcoin Hyper is.

Why Looser Fed Policy Supercharges Bitcoin’s Infrastructure Race

A credible chance of a crypto-friendly Fed chair changes the calculus for builders and investors. If rate cuts or a softer stance are on the table, liquidity doesn’t just chase $BTC; it hunts yield, leverage, and new primitives that sit on top of Bitcoin and other base layers.

That’s why Bitcoin scalability and programmability are suddenly core macro trades, not just technical debates.

Lightning Network tackles payments but struggles with UX and liquidity routing at scale. Meanwhile, Bitcoin-adjacent ecosystems like Stacks, Rootstock, and Merlin Chain are racing to bolt smart contracts and DeFi onto Bitcoin without compromising security guarantees.

In this emerging Layer 2 stack, Bitcoin Hyper ($HYPER) is one contender, pitching a modular design where Bitcoin remains the settlement and security anchor while a high-throughput execution layer handles smart contracts.

You can buy $HYPER on the official presale page today.

How Bitcoin Hyper Turns Bitcoin Into a High-Beta DeFi Play

Zooming in, Bitcoin Hyper ($HYPER) markets itself as the first Bitcoin Layer 2 to integrate the Solana Virtual Machine, targeting real-world throughput that can exceed Solana’s own benchmarks while still anchoring state back to Bitcoin.

The core idea: keep Bitcoin as the trust layer, but move execution to an SVM-powered environment optimized for parallel processing and sub-second confirmation.

The result: a faster, cheaper, and more scalable Bitcoin network, attracting more institutional investors and tapping into the mainstream.

By combining a modular architecture – Bitcoin L1 for settlement, an SVM-based L2 for execution, and a decentralized Canonical Bridge for $BTC transfers – $HYPER sidesteps Bitcoin’s biggest constraints: slow base-layer confirmation times, volatile on-chain fees, and the absence of native smart contract logic.

The goal is to enable swaps, lending, staking, NFTs, and gaming in wrapped $BTC with low latency and low cost.

From a market-structure angle, this turns $HYPER into a leveraged bet on Bitcoin’s upside and on-chain usage growth.

The presale has raised over $28.8M so far, with $HYPER sitting at $0.013365, suggesting investors are already positioning for a structurally looser policy backdrop and a richer Bitcoin DeFi stack.

Based on the presale’s performance and Bitcoin Hyper’s utility, we expect the token to hit the market hard.

A fair price prediction for $HYPER considers a potential target of $0.20 in 2026 and a high of $1.50 by 2030, once Bitcoin Hyper achieves its core developmental phases. Think 1,396% and 11,123% in terms of ROIs for one-year and five-year investment plans respectively.

From a pure numbers’ perspective, $HYPER could become one of the best altcoins to buy in 2026.

The presale targets a release window between Q4 2025 and Q1 2026, depending on market conditions and demand, with the latter already being high. So, if you want in, you should feel a sense of urgency right about now.

Make sure you read our guide on how to buy $HYPER first, though.

Japan’s government is backing a plan to tax cryptocurrency profits at a flat 20% rate, a major change from the current system that can push some traders into much higher brackets. Reports have disclosed the move aims to treat crypto gains more like stock trading, simplifying what many investors have called a confusing tax regime.

What The Change Means

Under the proposal, gains from crypto trades would be taxed separately from salaries and other miscellaneous income and instead be subject to the same 20% capital gains-style rate that applies to many investment products. Right now, crypto earnings in Japan are lumped in with other income and can be taxed at rates reaching as high as 55%.

Reports have also said regulators want to reclassify many cryptocurrencies as financial products. That would bring new rules, such as tighter disclosure and the potential application of insider trading laws to crypto markets. The Financial Services Agency is said to be leading the drafting of the proposal.

Industry Reaction And Regional Impact

Exchanges and brokers in Japan are studying what a uniform 20% rate would mean for fees, trading volumes, and client onboarding. Some market participants welcome the predictability; others worry about additional compliance burdens if exchanges must follow securities-style rules. Firms in other Asian hubs are watching closely because lower retail tax costs in Japan could shift where regional investors choose to trade.

Analysts note two effects are likely: clearer tax bills for individual traders and a possible uptick in institutional interest if banks and insurers can sell crypto through regulated channels. Still, some retail traders who benefited from earlier tax treatments may see little immediate gain.

Implementation Timeline And Next Steps

Based on reports, the measure is expected to be included in the fiscal 2026 tax reform package that ruling parties will compile soon, with legislation to be introduced in the next parliamentary session. That timetable means practical implementation could come in 2026 or take effect in 2027 depending on parliamentary approval and technical details.

Several important details remain unclear. Which assets will qualify, how past losses will be handled, and whether a list of approved tokens will be set are all open questions. Some coverage mentions a specific list of approved cryptocurrencies will be treated like equities, but final wording has not been released.

Check out our Live Next Crypto to Explode Updates for December 3, 2025!

Crypto is so unthinkably huge at the moment, a nearly $4 trillion industry that’s aiming for world domination.

Recent headlines talk of Circle and Mastercard planning to add USDC to global payment systems, Ethereum and Bitcoin treasuries in the billions of dollars, and Google building its own blockchain.

Bitcoin has an all-time growth of over 180,000,000%, Dogecoin over 43,000%, and some of the newest presale coins often pump 10x, 100x, or even 1,000x on rare occasions.

Explosive potential is probably the single best description for what we’re seeing today in crypto.

December 3, 2025 • 13:00 UTC

American entrepreneur and investor, Kevin O’Leary expects the Fed to hold rates steady in December, despite futures implying close to a 87% chance of a cut, and $BTC still drifting only around 5% either side of its current level after a 14% monthly drawdown.

That setup suggests a grinding range rather than explosive upside, even though the long-term thesis for Bitcoin remains intact. In such an environment, infrastructure that introduces new use cases for $BTC can offer a better risk-reward than simply adding spot.

Bitcoin Hyper ($HYPER) is a Bitcoin Layer-2 that plugs into the Solana Virtual Machine, using a canonical bridge so you can lock $BTC on-chain and redeploy it into DeFi, NFTs, gaming, and other high-throughput dApps. 

With $28.88M raised at a $0.013365 token price and two separate smart contract audits clearing critical issues, you tilt toward real network utility while still orbiting Bitcoin’s brand, making $HYPER a logical next crypto to explode candidate.

Whale Bid Returns to Ethereum while Bitcoin Hyper Builds a Parallel Track as Your Next Crypto to Explode

December 3, 2025 • 12:00 UTC

Ethereum just reclaimed lost ground after heavy liquidations, with $ETH bouncing back above $3k as on-chain data shows whale wallets stepping up accumulation into the rebound. 

The demand hints at a ‘strong signal of aggressive market buying,’ tweeted Maarten Regterschot, a verified analyst at CryptoQuant

At the same time, top altcoins and meme coins are printing strong daily percentages, which tells you risk appetite is returning across the stack, from majors to pure narratives. When that happens, the best risk-adjusted upside often sits with infrastructure that can ride multiple trends at once.

Bitcoin Hyper ($HYPER) gives you that sort of optionality. It is the first Bitcoin Layer-2 built on the Solana Virtual Machine, letting you move $BTC through a canonical bridge and then use it inside DeFi, NFTs, gaming, and other Solana-style dApps while still anchoring to Bitcoin’s security.

With $28.88M already raised at a $0.013365 token price, you gain exposure to the point where Bitcoin’s monetary premium and Solana’s performance meet, positioning $HYPER as a serious contender for the next crypto to explode.

Crypto-Friendly Fed Talk Sends PEPENODE onto Your Radar as a High-Beta Next Crypto to Explode Candidate

December 3, 2025 • 11:00 UTC

Trump’s recent hints pushed Kevin Hassett’s odds of becoming the next Fed chair sharply higher, with prediction markets now heavily favoring a figure described as openly crypto-friendly and already exposed through a sizable Coinbase stake. 

A Fed that is less hostile to digital assets doesn’t change policy overnight, but it improves the backdrop for speculative sectors that thrive on liquidity and narrative, including meme coins and GameFi.

PEPENODE ($PEPENODE) sits exactly at that intersection, blending Pepe meme culture with a mine-to-earn game where you build virtual mining rigs, buy nodes, and compete for real token airdrops.

The presale is targeting a meme sector projected to grow at a 26.7% CAGR from 2025 to 2035, and with $2.24M already raised at a $0.0011778 presale price, it offers exposure to both the meme narrative and a gamified economy that rewards active participation.

If you’re looking for a structured way to play the next crypto to explode rather than just betting on vibes.

As Bitcoin Eyes Six Figures, Bitcoin Hyper Quietly Lines Up as the Next Crypto to Explode

December 3, 2025 • 10:00 UTC

$BTC just bounced from a sharp flush down to $84,5k back to above $93k as analysts like Michael van de Poppe openly discuss a path to $100k over the next few months.

The key $86k–$88k support zone has already survived around 60 tests without breaking, which shows how much smart money defends this range while ETF inflows and potential Fed cuts act as tailwinds. 

If you already hold $BTC, the next step is usually finding higher-beta exposure to that same narrative rather than chasing random meme coins.

Bitcoin Hyper ($HYPER) fits that lane as a Bitcoin Layer-2 built on the Solana Virtual Machine, bringing Solana-style execution and dApp potential to Bitcoin. It achieves this via a canonical bridge that lets you move $BTC into DeFi, NFTs, and gaming for the first time. 

With $28.8M raised so far at a $0.013365 token price, you tap into infrastructure that scales Bitcoin instead of just tracking it, giving you a more asymmetric angle on the next crypto to explode.

Solana’s Rizzmas Revival Puts Meme Liquidity Back on the Map for Maxi Doge, a Potential Next Crypto to Explode

December 3, 2025 • 10:00 UTC

Solana meme action just switched back on, with Rizzmas reappearing as $SOL posts double-digit daily gains and spot volumes flood into seasonal tokens again. 

When meme coins start waking up on a high-throughput chain, it usually signals that traders feel comfortable rotating out along the risk curve, hunting for fresh narratives with stronger upside than the first wave. That dynamic favors meme plays that carry real mechanics, not just a logo and a dog.

Maxi Doge ($MAXI) leans into this shift by combining classic Doge culture with staking, trading contests, and future 1000x leverage tie-ins, which turn the community into a constant flow of competition and volume rather than passive holders.

With $4.25M already raised at a $0.000271 token price, you position yourself earlier than most meme rotations, while still tying into a project that has audits, fixed supply, and a clearly defined ecosystem.

Quick Facts:

• The market puts the odds of another rate cut at 87% as the next Fed meeting is set for December 10, one week from now.
• Another rate cut could turn investors to risk-based assets like Bitcoin, which would result in a crypto pump across the board.
• Bitcoin Hyper introduces a Bitcoin Layer 2 with SVM integration, promising faster-than-Solana performance, ultra-low fees, and a Rust-based SDK for builders.
• The $HYPER presale raised over $28.8M so far and targets a release date between Q4 2025 and Q1 2026.

With markets now openly betting on Federal Reserve rate cuts and a softer dollar in 2025, crypto investors are back to asking the same question: how do you position for the next leg of Bitcoin’s cycle without simply stacking more spot $BTC and hoping for a 2x?

The next rate cut should come on December 10, with the market putting the odds of a favorable decision at 87% now. A successful cut would make crypto appealing to investors again, which could put an end to the current bear market.

Lower yields and fresh liquidity typically push capital out the risk curve.

Historically, Bitcoin leads that move, but the outsized returns tend to emerge in narratives that sit around $BTC rather than in $BTC itself – think exchanges in 2017, DeFi in 2020, or Ethereum scaling in 2021. This time, the infrastructure gap is obvious: Bitcoin is still slow, expensive, and hard to build on.

That’s the opening Bitcoin Hyper ($HYPER) is trying to exploit.

Instead of asking you to rotate away from $BTC, it pitches a way to keep Bitcoin at the center of your thesis while getting leverage to a much higher growth curve. Its angle is simple: turn Bitcoin into a fast, smart-contract powerhouse and let the liquidity follow.

For you, that means a way to play the next Bitcoin uptrend with more upside than spot alone.

If the ‘Bitcoin Layer 2’ meme becomes the next dominant narrative, projects that actually make $BTC programmable at Solana-like speeds are positioned to capture significant attention, developer mindshare, and, ultimately, capital flows.

You can read more about what Bitcoin Hyper is right here.

Bitcoin Hyper Aims To Turn $BTC Into A High-Speed Smart-Contract Chain

Bitcoin Hyper ($HYPER) delivers a Bitcoin Layer 2 designed around speed, low-cost execution, and developer-friendly smart contracts, without abandoning Bitcoin as the settlement root.

Instead of just scaling payments, it focuses on giving you Solana-style performance while keeping $BTC at the center of value transfer and collateral.

At the core is SVM integration, letting developers deploy familiar Solana-style smart contracts while tapping into Bitcoin’s trust and brand. The result, in plain terms: sub-second transaction speed, negligible fees, and a user experience where swaps, lending, gaming, and NFTs in $BTC no longer feel clunky or dated.

For users, that translates into high-speed payments in wrapped $BTC, low-fee DeFi, and NFT or gaming dApps that don’t grind to a halt when things get busy.

For builders, the Rust-based SDK and API aim to make it easy to spin up DeFi protocols, NFT marketplaces, and on-chain games where the base asset is Bitcoin, not an alt.

$HYPER is available today on the official presale page.

Can $HYPER Ride The Next Bitcoin Leg Higher?

$HYPER already raised over $28.88M in presale, following sustained investor participation and growing confidence in Bitcoin Hyper’s value proposition.

Based on the current trend, we expect the token to experience a post-launch boom, followed by a period of stabilization before the next leg-up.

Our price prediction for $HYPER suggests a potential target of $0.20 in 2026 and a $1.50 one for 2030, once the project reaches its developmental milestones. In terms of profit, think ROIs of 1,396% and 11,123% respectively.

This type of performance would recommend $HYPER as the best crypto to buy today, given the presale price of $0.013365.

If you believe the next liquidity wave will reward infrastructure that makes Bitcoin faster, cheaper, and more programmable, Bitcoin Hyper is a pure-play bet on that thesis rather than a vague ecosystem token.

You’re not just betting on $BTC going up; you’re betting on $BTC finally becoming usable as DeFi collateral, gaming currency, and high-speed payment rail.

If that isn’t incentive enough, maybe $HYPER’s long-term market potential is and the earlier you buy, the higher the potential gains. Which, given the presale’s projected end date between Q4 2025 and Q1 2026, adds a strong flavor or urgency.

Bank of America is the latest traditional institution to warm up to Bitcoin, with its investment strategists set to cover four ETFs starting in January.

Bank of America To Begin Endorsing Crypto Exposure

As reported by Yahoo Finance, Bank of America will start recommending its clients a 1% to 4% portfolio allocation to digital assets. Until now, the bank’s wealth advisors couldn’t endorse crypto exposure and clients had to request access to digital asset products if they wanted them in their portfolio.

With this move, Bank of America advisors can begin recommending digital asset exposure to clients across the bank’s Merrill, Bank of America Private Bank, and Merrill Edge Platforms. “Our guidance emphasizes regulated vehicles, thoughtful allocation, and a clear understanding of both the opportunities and risks,” said Chris Hyzy, chief investment officer at Bank of America Private Bank.

Investment strategists will initially cover four Bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs) starting January 5. ETFs are investment vehicles that allow traders to invest into an underlying asset without having to directly own it. Since they trade on traditional platforms and are regulated, institutional entities prefer to invest through them.

The four spot Bitcoin ETFs Bank of America will be focusing on include Bitwise’s BITB, BlackRock’s IBIT, Fidelity’s FBTC, and Grayscale’s BTC.

Bank of America is one of the largest financial institutions in the world, ranking only second behind JPMorgan Chase in market cap and placing sixth largest in terms of total assets. It’s designated as a global systemically important bank (G-SIB) by the Financial Stability Board (FSB), meaning it’s so entrenched in world economy that instability related to it could have widespread consequences.

Even an institution of its size no longer being able to ignore Bitcoin showcases just how far digital asset adoption in traditional finance has come. “This update reflects growing client demand for access to digital assets,” noted Nancy Fahmy, head of Bank of America’s investment solutions group.

The news arrives just a day after Vanguard Group, one of the largest asset managers in the world, opened its doors to crypto ETFs and mutual funds.

Morgan Stanley, another G-SIB, broadened access to crypto exposure for its clients back in October. The financial services institution’s global investment committee suggested 2% to 4% allocation in digital assets.

Bank of America’s recommendation of 1% to 4% is quite similar. “The lower end of this range may be more appropriate for those with a conservative risk profile, while the higher end may suit investors with greater tolerance for overall portfolio risk,” added Hyzy.

Bitcoin has already recovered from its Monday blow as its price has returned to $92,100.

The President of Poland has vetoed a controversial bill that aimed to set strict rules on the crypto assets market, following multiple concerns of a startup exodus, “overregulation” of the sector, and stifling market innovation.

Poland’s President Vetoes Divisive Crypto Bill

On Monday, Poland’s President Karol Nawrocki refused to sign a crypto market legislation over concerns that it could pose a real threat to the freedoms of Poles, the stability of the state, and market innovation.

In an official statement, the president’s office announced Nawrocki’s decision to veto the Crypto-Asset Market Act, introduced in June, to prevent “overregulation” and abuse of the “legal mess” proposed by the Polish government.

As reported by Bitcoinist, Poland’s crypto community previously raised concerns about the legislation in September, noting that the bill exceeded the European Union (EU)’s minimum regulatory requirements and could drive small businesses and startups abroad.

Notably, the bill’s text required all Crypto Asset Service Providers to obtain a license from the Polish Financial Supervision Authority (KNF) to operate in the market. It also proposed heavy fines and potential prison time for participants who breached the law.

Rafal Leśkiewicz, Press Secretary of the President, listed on X three main reasons for Nawrocki’s decision to reject the bill. He asserted that the legislation risks power abuse and overreach, as some provisions allow the government to shut down websites of companies offering crypto services “with a single click.”

“This is unacceptable. Most European Union countries use a simple list of warnings that protects consumers without blocking entire websites,” he noted.

In addition, the regulation’s size and lack of transparency risked overregulation, noting that countries like the Czech Republic, Slovakia, and Hungary implemented concise and comprehensive frameworks. Meanwhile, Poland’s text surpasses the one-hundred-page mark.

He argued that “Overregulation is a straight path to driving companies abroad—to the Czech Republic, Lithuania, or Malta—instead of creating conditions for them to earn money and pay taxes in Poland.”

Lastly, the Press Secretary listed the amount of supervisory fees as an issue, affirming that the government set them at a level that would have prevented small businesses and startups from developing, favoring foreign corporations and banks. To him, “this is a reversal of logic, killing the competitive market and posing a serious threat to innovation.”

Community Praises The ‘Necessary Decision’

Leśkiewicz emphasized that regulation is necessary, but added that it must oversee the market in a way that’s “reasonable, proportionate, and safe” for users, rather than overreaching and potentially harming the Polish economy.

“The government had two years to prepare a bill in line with the European MiCA regulation on the crypto-asset market in the European Union. Instead, it produced a legal mess that hurts Poles and Polish companies,” he asserted. “The decision to veto was necessary and was made responsibly. The president will defend the economic security of Poles.”

Polish economist Krzysztof Piech praised the president’s decision to veto the crypto bill, affirming that it was “a very bad law” that “violated the Polish Constitution and was contrary to the EU regulation it was supposed to implement in Poland.”

Piech also refuted claims that Poland will become a “paradise” for criminals and fraudsters, who will “be grateful” to President Nawrocki for “a crypto market without state supervision.”

The economist asserted that the government’s version of the bill “did not provide for any assistance to victims of fraudsters,” adding that, “as of July 1, 2026, the entire Polish market will be regulated and supervised — even without any legislation. After all, we are in the EU.”

Grayscale Research has gone against the grain, rejecting Bitcoin’s popular 4-year cycle thesis and saying new highs could be possible next year.

Grayscale Research Doesn’t Believe A Prolonged Bitcoin Decline Is Coming Yet

In a new report, Grayscale Research has discussed what the latest pullback in the market could mean for Bitcoin. This drawdown, which began in early October and lasted until two-thirds of the way into November, resulted in a price decrease of about 32% from peak to trough.

While the scale of the drop hasn’t been small, Grayscale has noted that it has still been close to the historical average for bull market drawdowns. “Since Bitcoin’s price bottomed in November 2022, it has declined at least 10% nine times,” said the crypto asset manager’s research arm. “It has been a bumpy ride, but not atypical for a Bitcoin bull market.”

2026 will mark four years since the 2022 bear market. Among BTC traders, there is a popular idea that the cryptocurrency’s price cycles run over a length of roughly four years. According to this thesis, the next year could see the asset go down, as it has now enjoyed three years of appreciation.

The 4-year cycle thesis originates from the fact that Bitcoin Halving events are spaced apart by approximately four years. During such an event, BTC’s block subsidy, a fixed reward that miners receive for adding the next block to the chain, is slashed in half.

As the block subsidy is the only way to mint more of the cryptocurrency, Halvings have a direct effect on its supply growth. This scarcity effect of the Halving is what has made many in the community believe that the event sits in the center of bullish phases.

Historically, Bitcoin has seen large drawdowns about every four years, which has strengthened the belief in the idea of a cycle being four years in length. Grayscale doesn’t think that the current cycle will go the same way, however. “Although the outlook is uncertain, we believe the four-year cycle thesis will prove to be incorrect, and that Bitcoin’s price will potentially make new highs next year,” explained the report. Grayscale Research has given three reasons for this expectation.

The first is the fact that the latest BTC cycle hasn’t seen any phase of parabolic price increase, as the below chart highlights.

The second is that Bitcoin has seen a shift this cycle, with instruments like exchange-traded funds (ETFs) and digital asset treasuries (DATs) bringing in fresh capital. Before, BTC relied on inflows through retail exchanges.

Lastly, Grayscale has pointed out that the macro market backdrop is still looking favorable for cryptocurrencies; the potential for lower interest rates and continued progress on bipartisan digital asset legislation could drive institutional investment.
