Ethereum Staking Plateau Persists At Record levels As Participation Holds Steady

bitcoinist.com - пт, 11/21/2025 - 23:00

Even with the ongoing waning action in the price of Ethereum, interest and demand for the leading altcoin do not seem to be slowing down. Several investors are currently exhibiting heightened willingness to stake a portion of their ETH holdings, reaching one of its highest periods ever.

Record Ethereum Still Locked In Staking Contracts

Over the past month, Ethereum’s price has experienced significant volatility, resulting in a sharp decline. Despite the prolonged bearish movement, one thing is certain: there has been a steady increase in the amount of ETH being staked. 

Leon Waidmann, the head of research at On-Chain Foundation, has delved into the network’s performance over time, revealing a sustained willingness among investors to stake part of their ETH holdings. According to the market expert, ETH staking activity is showcasing strength, reaching a new all-time high. 

After hitting a new all-time high, Ethereum’s staking ecosystem has remained steadfast at the levels in the face of price swings, liquidity shifts, and shifting investor sentiment. Data shared by the expert shows that over 35 million is currently locked in validators, and the chart has barely experienced a decrease in the past few months.

In addition to remaining robust, staking participation is now emerging as one of the most powerful structural pillars bolstering Ethereum’s economic base. This large amount of ETH locked in staking contracts indicates that long-term holders, institutional validators, and infrastructure providers continue to exhibit confidence in the network’s security and reward model. 

ETH staking is not the only area witnessing heightened adoption and participation. There has also been a rise in accumulation among big or institutional investors. Large corporate firms such as Bitmine Digital continue to purchase the top altcoin at a significant rate and scale.

As of Wednesday, a wallet address linked to the treasury company was detected scooping up thousands of ETH. Executed in a single transaction, Bitmine Digital acquired more than 24,827 ETH valued at approximately $72.5 million. This massive acquisition, believed to be a strategic repositioning, suggests growing conviction in the altcoin’s long-term potential.

ETH Is Making Its Entry Into The Institutional Era

Given the heightened interest from corporate firms, Ethereum appears to be transitioning into a new era. Joseph Chalom, the Co-Chief Executive Officer (Co-CEO) of SharpLink Gaming, has commented on the current outlook of the asset, declaring that ETH is entering its institutional super cycle.

Chalom’s bold statement hinges on the fact that ETH is highly productive, yield-bearing, and increasingly becoming the backbone of finance. In the meantime, Chalom and the publicly traded company are actively working on this narrative by helping to push the transition forward.

According to the CEO, this institutional supercycle does not refer to the price, but rather to the adoption curve. One of the ways this super cycle is playing out is the tokenization of fiat currency into stablecoins, as evidenced by the substantial growth in Tether’s USDT and Circle’s USDC.

Nasdaq Shake-Up? Michael Saylor’s Strategy Faces Possible Removal

bitcoinist.com - пт, 11/21/2025 - 22:00

Strategy Inc., the company long associated with Michael Saylor’s big Bitcoin bets, is facing the real risk of being dropped from major stock indexes — a move that could force billions of dollars of forced selling and change how investors get exposure to Bitcoin.

Reports show index providers are weighing new rules that would push firms with huge crypto treasuries out of traditional benchmarks.

Index Threat Looms

According to disclosures this week, JPMorgan warned that if Strategy is excluded from MSCI’s investable indexes and the Nasdaq 100, passive funds that track those benchmarks could dump close to $3 billion of the stock — and the total at risk could rise into the billions more if other index providers act.

MSCI is consulting on a proposal to exclude companies whose digital-asset holdings make up 50% or more of total assets, a threshold that would put Strategy squarely in the crosshairs of the review.

Strategy Has Been Buying Aggressively

Strategy’s balance sheet is heavy with Bitcoin. Reports show the company owned about 649,870 Bitcoin as of Nov. 16, 2025, and that it bought another 8,178 BTC recently for roughly $836 million at an average price near $102,171 per coin. Those moves have kept the company tied tightly to Bitcoin’s swings.

Stock Pain And Funding Moves

The company’s stock has fallen sharply from its highs. Market coverage this week notes the company is down by roughly 68% from its record peak reached about a year ago, a drop that has tightened the link between Bitcoin price moves and Strategy’s market value. That weakness, combined with heavy crypto holdings, is what brought index providers’ scrutiny.

Capital Choices Raise New Questions

Strategy recently changed terms around equity issuance, giving itself wider leeway to sell stock even when its market valuation is weak. That can help fund more Bitcoin buys. It also raises concerns about dilution for existing shareholders and adds pressure if index-tracking funds must sell shares.

Possible Market Impact

If MSCI and others move to remove Strategy, the forced sales by index funds could push the stock lower and make it harder for the company to raise money without hurting existing holders.

JPMorgan’s analysis highlights a near-term date to watch: the index review process points to decisions expected by Jan. 15, 2026, which could mark a turning point for how public markets treat companies that sit mostly in crypto.

Pundit Reveals Important Information That XRP Investors Should Understand

bitcoinist.com - пт, 11/21/2025 - 21:00

Crypto pundit Jake Claver recently drew XRP investors‘ attention to important tax information he believes could help them protect their wealth. Claver also offered a solution, which he indicated could help these investors even as they watch XRP potentially appreciate to as high as $100. 

Crypto Pundit Draws XRP Investors’ Attention To Important Tax Information

In an X post, Claver alluded to tax information from his company, Digital Ascension Group (DAG), which he said would become very important for XRP holders to understand. DAG explained how the IRS’s classification of crypto as property in 2014 changed everything for crypto wealth. 

The company stated that most people holding six or seven figures in XRP do not understand the implications. DAG noted that, because crypto is classified as property, every wallet is vulnerable to court orders, and that any incident relating to one’s personal life can warrant a judge ordering holders to hand over the keys to their wallets. 

 However, on the other hand, DAG stated that crypto’s classification as property also unlocked every wealth strategy that real estate families have used for centuries. This creates a step-up basis at death, allowing the heirs of XRP holders to inherit the crypto at its current market value with no capital gains owed. The company stated that this way, investors can buy XRP at $0.50, die when it hits $100, and their heirs get it at $100, with the entire capital gains eliminated. 

Meanwhile, DAG revealed that XRP holders can borrow against their holdings without selling their XRP. The company explained that these holders can take a loan at a reasonable interest rate and keep the asset while they avoid the tax bill and still have liquidity. The firm added that this was how Elon Musk bought Twitter with $40 billion borrowed against Tesla. As such, this will be the same playbook, though it is for crypto this time. 

Other Ways To Protect One’s XRP Holdings

DAG also proposed the transfer of one’s XRP holdings into a Wyoming LLC as a way to protect their crypto wealth. Investors transfer their coins into an LLC and then gain charging order protection, which means that creditors can’t touch their assets. The company explained that these creditors would have to get in line for distributions that investors never have to make, as the corporate veil protects these investors. 

Furthermore, DAG stated that investors could gift up to $13.6 million to family members without a gift tax by filing Form 709. These investors can also move their wealth out of the taxable estate while they are alive. Couples can transfer up to $27.2 million while avoiding the gift tax. 

The company also explained that investors would have to put the LLC into a revocable living trust, in which one’s spouse becomes trustee upon death and can skip the headache of probate. This eliminates the 6 to 24 months court delay and the 3% to 7% probate fees, while there won’t be public records showing what crypto assets were owned. 

DAG declared that retail investors are still treating crypto like lottery tickets while high-net-worth families are treating it exactly like commercial real estate. They are said to structure it, shield it, borrow against it, and never sell appreciating assets. The company added that property classification is the foundation for generational wealth if one actually understands what it unlocks. 

At the time of writing, the XRP price is trading at around $1.98, down over 7% in the last 24 hours, according to data from CoinMarketCap.

Burniske: ‘I Have A Zcash Stash I’ll Never Sell, Just Like Bitcoin’

bitcoinist.com - пт, 11/21/2025 - 18:30

Placeholder co-founder Chris Burniske said in a Nov. 20 interview with Real Vision’s Raoul Pal that he holds a core Zcash position he “will never sell,” explicitly likening it to his long-term Bitcoin stash, even as he cautioned that ZEC’s current rally is not yet a proven structural breakout.

Pal opened by questioning whether Zcash’s surge is “just a rotational circle jerk within crypto again or is this something meaningful?” Burniske responded by foregrounding his conflict of interest: “I’ve been deeply involved within the Zcash community, so I have some bias here.” He cited personal ties and formal work with the ecosystem — “I’m friends with Zoko [Wilcox] […] I sat on […] a grants board” — and recalled that in 2016 Zcash was “the most anticipated coin” and initially traded as “a better Bitcoin,” a narrative he said “is coming back now.”

Burniske HODL’s ZCash And Bitcoin

On market structure, Burniske stressed that ZEC is not moving alone. “ZEC is ripping, but so is Dash and so is Monero […] a lot of these OG privacy coins.” While noting Zcash “has done the best,” he relayed industry chatter for why privacy assets often run late in cycles: “apparently […] some Bitcoin whales will use some of these coins to […] anonymize their profits, end of cycle, um juice a bit more return.” He emphasized this was not a firm claim: “I don’t have the hard data on this […] there’s kind of that explanation.”

For Burniske, the real signal won’t come from the current leg higher but from how ZEC behaves when liquidity compresses. “We are not going to know until or if we get a bear market and we see where these assets bottom.” His test is relative resilience versus peers: if “Dash and Monero […] go back to the bottom of their ranges but ZEC holds materially higher […] that is very strong signal to me.”

Despite that uncertainty, Burniske described a non-negotiable core holding. “I have an amount of Zcash […] that I will never sell. And I kind of treat it like an amount of Bitcoin that I will never sell.” He tied the reasoning to Bitcoin’s historical payoff curve: “The only way people did phenomenally well from Bitcoin […] is basically just being like never sell, right? The hodl mentality.” In his framing, that “portion of ZEC” is held outside cyclical trading logic.

At the same time, he separated that conviction from short-term price chasing. “Even if it keeps going parabolic, you know, I don’t trust that parabolic move. I wouldn’t chase that parabolic move.” He said he has avoided hyping the rally publicly because ZEC’s market narrative is still “unproven,” and he doesn’t want to be responsible for others buying into euphoria and later blaming him.

Burniske pointed to ZEC’s long-term chart improvement as a positive development, though not a verdict. “I love that it’s cleared its 2021 highs and it had a monthly close higher than anything it had in 2021,” calling that “a point in the right direction.”

But he also noted the asset is “basically back at its 2017 highs,” underscoring how much of Zcash’s history has been spent in violent ranges. “It’s been this wildly volatile ranging asset,” he said, describing ZEC as a “problem child” in a market where “most crypto assets are value destructive” and only a small minority are “value creative.” For now, ZEC is “kind of a Schrödinger asset.”

Fundamentally, Burniske anchored his long-term thesis in Zcash’s cryptographic pedigree. “Zoko and his team are as hardcore cypherpunks as you could come by,” he said, adding that their “contributions to zero knowledge technology are above anyone else in the industry.” Those attributes, in his view, make ZEC a credible candidate for a rising privacy premium over time, but only if markets eventually validate that premise through sustained higher lows.

In short, Burniske’s stance is two-layered: an untouchable core aligned with Bitcoin-style hoarding — “I will never sell” — and a refusal to treat the present parabolic move as confirmation. The decisive evidence, he argued, will be whether ZEC can keep its footing when the cycle turns and the privacy complex retests its real support.

Notably, Burniske highlighted ZEC relative strength in a X post on Nov. 17: “In the dying breaths of this cycle it doesn’t so much matter what ZEC goes to in USD terms from here; enough good work has already been done there. It does matter, however, at the next bottom where ZECBTC & ZECUSD consolidates. Over the last couple months, the work it’s done in ZECBTC terms is most notable to me.”

He added that Zcash’s performance is especially notable in BTC terms. “Put another way, this late cycle price action from ZEC is not all that unique in USD terms, but it is unique in BTC terms. At the same time, you have to always respect that, for now, BTC sets the entire mood of the cryptoasset market on a medium-to-long term time frame,” he concluded.

At press time, ZEC traded at $674.82.

Asia Buys Bitcoin Dip While US Sells: Analysts Explain Why as PEPENODE is a Smart Buy

bitcoinist.com - пт, 11/21/2025 - 15:49

Quick Facts:

  • The US market caused Bitcoin to drop over 20% in November 2024, while Asian traders kept buying the dip, highlighting a deep regional sentiment divide.
  • Large long-term holders like MicroStrategy and resilient on-chain data support the view that recent price action is a bull-market correction, not a new crypto winter.
  • As liquidity rotates from $BTC into higher beta assets after corrections, mine-to-earn and gamified memecoins may capture outsized upside – especially in Asian markets – relative to more established altcoins.

In late 2024, you watched something unusual play out on the Bitcoin chart.

US trading hours drove a slide of more than 20% in November, triggering the classic question: Is the crypto winter back?

Yet, Asian sessions continued to step in and buy the dip in bitcoin, creating a sharp regional split in sentiment. On-chain analyst Ki Young Ju pointed to one key structural reason the market did not unravel more deeply:

“In classic cycle theory, the market should revisit the realized price around $56K to form a cyclical bottom, but because players like MSTR are unlikely to sell and those coins are effectively off the market, I doubt we will see $56K.”

MicroStrategy now holds around 649,870 $BTC, a strategic treasury position that effectively removes a huge amount of supply from circulation and dampens the kind of capitulation past cycle theory might predict.

Fidelity Digital Assets executive Chris Kuiper framed the move as a textbook 20% to 30% correction within a broader bull structure, not the start of a new bear market.

There was no major negative news catalyst, on-chain activity remained resilient, and Asian desks continued to average in, all of which suggested a confidence gap rather than a thesis breakdown.

If you believe this is a temporary dislocation rather than a macro top, the question shifts from “will bitcoin dip again?” to “what high-upside narratives could outperform on the next leg up?”

That is where PEPENODE, a “mine‑to‑earn” memecoin experiment, enters the conversation as a speculative bet on engagement-driven token economies.

You can also delve deeper into our PEPENODE price prediction, which outlines how prices could range from $0.0014 to $0.0023 in 2025, expand to $0.0021–$0.0072 in 2026, and potentially reach $0.0123–$0.0244 by 2030, representing upside scenarios as high as 2,282%.

Asia’s Dip-Buying And The Hunt For High-Beta Plays

The divergence between US sellers and Asian buyers matters because it tells you who is willing to fund the next wave of crypto risk.

When Asia accumulates spot $BTC into a 20%+ drawdown while the US derisks, liquidity tends to rotate into higher beta altcoins once downside pressure eases.

In past cycles, that rotation flowed into narrative leaders like Dogecoin, Shiba Inu, and, more recently, Pepe, with their combined market caps frequently adding billions of dollars within weeks after major Bitcoin reversals.

These memecoins offer no hard cash flow, but they do offer asymmetric upside when liquidity, leverage, and social media attention align.

This time, the memecoin sector is colliding with “play‑to‑earn” mechanics and engaging mining models. Projects such as Notcoin on Telegram, mining-themed clickers on Solana, and speculative node ecosystems on BNB Chain are all trying to turn casual interaction into token distribution.

PEPENODE positions itself as one of these experiments, focused specifically on a virtual mining experience rather than pure meme rotation.

Visit the PEPENODE website for a closer look at the project.

Why PEPENODE’s Mine-To-Earn Memecoin is Gaining Traction

One reason interest is shifting to mine‑to‑earn concepts is that classical mining has become almost unreachable for the average retail user.

  • Bitcoin ASICs cost thousands of dollars,
  • Home electricity prices have climbed,
  • And institutional hash power now dominates block production.

The process is capital-intensive, technical, and, frankly, boring for most people.

Gamified mining flips that model. Instead of buying hardware, you buy virtual miners or nodes and interact through a web or mobile interface.

If the design is good, you get the psychological hit of “running a farm” with visible hash stats, boosts, and upgrades, while the protocol uses smart contracts to manage emissions and rewards.

The token becomes both a meme and an in‑game resource.

$PEPENODE leans into this by branding itself as the world’s first mine‑to‑earn memecoin, making it one of the best cryptos to buy now.

Rather than promising industrial-grade yields, it focuses on a virtual mining system, a gamified dashboard, and variable-strength nodes that reward early adopters.

Compared with static meme tokens that rely solely on community hype, it attempts to hook users with ongoing gameplay and progression.

For detailed presale instructions, read our ‘How to Buy $PEPENODE guide’. Is PEPENODE the Next Crypto to Explode?

When you look under the hood, $PEPENODE runs as an ERC‑20 token on Ethereum’s proof‑of‑stake layer.

Smart contracts control staking, rewards, and ultimately governance, but the front‑end experience is framed as a mining game:

  • You buy and customize Miner Nodes,
  • Upgrade facilities to boost performance,
  • And earn meme coin rewards, such as PEPE or Fartcoin, in the process.

The upcoming model tries to fix three issues at once:

  • First, it replaces passive, hardware-heavy mining with low-friction virtual mining that uses no electricity beyond regular internet access.
  • Second, it directly addresses weak early incentives by giving initial PEPENODE supporters more powerful nodes and higher reward multipliers.
  • Third, it strips away technical complexity so anyone with a wallet can participate.

The project’s timing is notable.

While traders argue over the next bitcoin dip level, the $PEPENODE presale has raised $2.17M, with tokens priced at $0.0011592. The staking rewards are also too good to ignore at 593%.

If Asian desks remain net buyers of $BTC and the pullback behaves like a standard 20% to 30% correction, high-beta plays could outperform once volatility compresses.

In that scenario, $PEPENODE offers a pure sentiment and participation bet on memecoins evolving from simple jokes into interactive mining-themed economies.

Join the $PEPENODE presale for $0.0011592 before the next price surge.

Vitalik Buterin Lancia l’Allarme: Tra l’Ombra di BlackRock e la Minaccia dei Computer Quantistici

bitcoinist.com - пт, 11/21/2025 - 15:48

Durante la conferenza Devconnect di Buenos Aires, il co-fondatore di Ethereum, Vitalik Buterin, non ha usato mezzi termini. Al centro del suo intervento c’è una preoccupazione crescente: il dominio sempre più soffocante dei giganti istituzionali come BlackRock sul mondo delle criptovalute, con un focus particolare su Bitcoin (BTC) ed Ethereum (ETH).

Secondo Buterin, questa influenza smisurata non è solo una questione di mercato, ma una potenziale minaccia esistenziale per la natura decentralizzata di queste reti.

Il Rischio Centralizzazione: Ethereum è “catturabile”?

L’intervento di Buterin nasce da una riflessione profonda sull’impatto degli investitori istituzionali, specialmente dopo il lancio degli ETF su Bitcoin ed Ethereum da parte di BlackRock all’inizio del 2024.

La domanda che Vitalik pone alla community è cruciale: come possiamo evitare che le crypto vengano “catturate” da entità colossali come BlackRock?

Il timore è che, se questi player dovessero continuare ad accumulare quote massicce di Ethereum, la voce di chi difende la decentralizzazione finirebbe per essere marginalizzata. Il rischio concreto è uno stravolgimento dei fondamentali della rete:

  • Ottimizzazione per le Istituzioni: La rete potrebbe evolversi per soddisfare le esigenze di Wall Street.
  • Esclusione dell’utente comune: Diventerebbe sempre più difficile per i singoli utenti gestire un nodo, trasformando la blockchain in un club per pochi eletti.

Buterin ha avvertito: “Questo allontana facilmente le persone”, ribadendo la necessità di concentrarsi su quelle caratteristiche che rendono le crypto uniche: protocolli globali, permissionless (senza permessi) e resistenti alla censura.

Non a caso, proprio questa settimana BlackRock ha fatto notizia registrando in Delaware un fondo Ethereum con staking, segnalando l’intenzione di espandersi ulteriormente nel mercato degli ETF, dove il loro fondo principale gestisce già circa 10 miliardi di dollari in ETH.

La Minaccia Quantistica: Il countdown verso il 2030

Ma le preoccupazioni di Buterin non si fermano alla finanza tradizionale. All’orizzonte si profila un’altra ombra: quella del calcolo quantistico.

Recenti scoperte di Google e Microsoft (che ha svelato un nuovo chip per l’abilitazione quantistica) hanno accelerato la corsa tecnologica, accendendo i riflettori sulla sicurezza crittografica di Bitcoin ed Ethereum.

Scott Aaronson, ricercatore nel campo quantistico, ha suonato un campanello d’allarme: la potenza di questi computer potrebbe presto essere in grado di eseguire l’Algoritmo di Shor, teoricamente capace di violare gli standard di crittografia che proteggono le blockchain attuali. Secondo Aaronson, il ritmo dell’innovazione hardware è tale che potremmo vedere un computer quantistico fault-tolerant (tollerante ai guasti) persino prima delle prossime elezioni presidenziali USA.

“Non serve il panico, serve serietà”

Alex Pruden, CEO di Project 11 (società che si occupa di rischi quantistici), ha sintetizzato così la situazione: “Non dobbiamo farci prendere dal panico, ma dobbiamo iniziare a fare sul serio”. Il messaggio è chiaro: computer quantistici sufficientemente avanzati potrebbero rompere le criptovalute al loro livello più fondamentale.

La discussione si sta spostando sulla necessità di misure proattive. Gli sviluppatori di Bitcoin sono stati esortati a prepararsi per un futuro post-quantistico, che secondo alcuni esperti potrebbe materializzarsi già nel 2030.

La dichiarazione più forte arriva da Théau Peronnin, CEO di Alice & Bob, durante il Web Summit di Lisbona: gli sviluppatori devono migrare verso blockchain più robuste entro la fine del decennio per proteggersi.

Il suo avvertimento finale è lapidario:

Avete ancora qualche buon anno davanti a voi, ma io non terrei i miei Bitcoin a lungo termine senza un aggiornamento.

Total Crypto Open Interest Crashes To June Levels, Will Bitcoin Repeat The Same Trend?

bitcoinist.com - пт, 11/21/2025 - 15:30

Prices across the crypto market have crashed with the recent Bitcoin price decline below $100,000, and other major metrics have followed in accordance. One metric of note that has suffered a notable decline is the crypto market open interest. The total open interest fell sharply back in September, and the decline has been the trend since then. As a result, the crypto market open interest has now fallen to levels not seen in five months.

Crypto Open Interest Dumps Below $140 Billion

Data from the Coinglass website shows that crypto market open interest has declined significantly after hitting an all-time high in early October. The $233 billion peak was recorded on October 7, coinciding with the Bitcoin price also hitting a peak above $126,000. However, the momentum has not held up since then, and as the Bitcoin price has tumbled, the crypto open interest has suffered.

Earlier in the week, the open interest fell below $140 billion for the first time in five months, marking an over 40% crash in the space of one month. The market saw the first major decline following the infamous crash in the crypto market in a matter of hours. By October 12, only 5 days after the all-time high was recorded, the open interest had crashed by more than 25%, reaching $150 billion.

The current decline is a testament to the reduced participation from investors across the market, as crypto traders have taken a more conservative stance through the month of November. Not only has the crypto open interest been gravely impacted, but the daily trading volume has suffered as well.

Just like the open interest, the crypto daily trading volume has recorded a double-digit crash, going from almost $400 billion at the start of October to less than $260 billion at the time of this report. This constitutes an around 35% crash, showing notable similarities to the open interest.

What Happened To Bitcoin The Last Time?

While the rapid decline in the crypto open interest could be a cause for alarm, it is interesting to note what happened to Bitcoin the last time this metric was this low. Looking back to June 2025, when the crypto open interest was last below $140 billion, it essentially was the bottom before the price rallied again.

A bounce following the bottom in June saw the Bitcoin price rise from around $100,000 to $126,000 over the next few months, which translates to a 26% increase. If this trend holds and the bottom is marked with the crypto market open interest below $140 billion, then the Bitcoin price could be gearing up for another rally.

Asia–US Bitcoin Split, Bitcoin Hyper ($HYPER) and Positioning for the Best Presales

November 21, 2025 • 10:00 UTC

US trading sessions have driven more than 20% of November’s $BTC drawdown, while Asian hours keep quietly buying the dip and cushioning price, creating a clear regional divergence in risk appetite.

At the same time, large institutional holders like Strategy, sitting on hundreds of thousands of coins, effectively cap how deep corrections can go and turn sharp sell-offs into extended accumulation zones for long-term players.

That mix of structural demand and short-term fear shifts the real asymmetry away from spot Bitcoin and toward Bitcoin-focused infrastructure that can scale usage.

Bitcoin Hyper ($HYPER) is building exactly in that lane. It’s a Layer-2 using Solana Virtual Machine tech to bridge $BTC into faster, smart-contract-enabled rails with its canonical bridge and multi-chain design.

With $28.22M already raised at a presale price of $0.013305, you get exposure to the ecosystem that benefits when those Asian buy-the-dip flows eventually demand more throughput, DeFi, and NFT rails around Bitcoin itself. 

Here’s how to buy $HYPER now.

Mid-Cycle Bitcoin Sellers, PEPENODE ($PEPENODE) and Rotating Into the Best Presales

November 21, 2025 • 10:00 UTC

VanEck’s latest on-chain report shows mid-cycle $BTC holders, whose coins last moved within five years, driving the current sell-off. Decade-plus whales keep their stacks untouched and futures positioning looks ‘washed out’ after open interest dropped roughly 20% in $BTC terms since October. 

That kind of cohort rotation usually marks a reset phase rather than a full structural breakdown. And this opens the door for you to redeploy risk from tired mid-cycle bags into new narratives with cleaner supply and community structures.

PEPENODE ($PEPENODE) leans into that shift with a ‘mine-to-earn’ memecoin model that swaps passive staking for gamified virtual mining.

You acquire Miner Nodes and Facilities, simulate hashrate and energy inside a dashboard, and earn tiered node rewards tracked by smart contracts, all without touching power-hungry hardware. 

With $2.17M already raised and the presale price at $0.0011592, you step into an early-stage ecosystem designed to reward long-term participants rather than jittery mid-cycle sellers exiting into weakness.

Join the PEPENODE presale now with our guide.

Bitcoin Gets A Covert Signal As Bessent Walks Into PubKey DC

bitcoinist.com - пт, 11/21/2025 - 12:30

PubKey’s Washington, DC opening yesterday would normally be filed under Bitcoin culture: a BTC-centric bar and meetup space planting a flag a few blocks from the institutions that write and enforce US financial policy. Instead, the launch became a market-relevant moment after Galaxy Digital’s head of firmwide research Alex Thorn posted photos from the event that show US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent in attendance.

Is This The Hidden Bitcoin Bull Signal?

Thorn shared a few photos and only wrote, “PUBKEY DC IS ON THE MAP.” While Bessent has not acknowledged the visit on his own X account, the lack of an official readout keeps the episode informal. But in Washington, informality from senior officials is often where the earliest signals live.

Bitcoin-aligned commentators read the presence as overtly constructive. Analyst MacroScope (@MacroScope17) observed, “The Treasury Secretary was at tonight’s opening of PubKey DC. In this type of market, signals like this don’t matter much. Eventually traders look back and realize it mattered.”

Strive chief investment officer Ben Werkman framed it as a hindsight moment in real time, saying, “Having the Secretary of the Treasury at the Pubkey DC launch seems like a moment I could easily look back on and say ‘wow, it was all so obvious’.” Thorn replied, “agreed this is unabashedly bullish,” while Nakamoto’s vice president of investor relations Steven Lubka wrote, “The Treasury Secretary of the United States is at Pubkey. This is the sign you have been waiting for.”

None of those posts constitute policy, but they reflect a shared interpretation: a sitting Treasury Secretary showing up at a Bitcoin venue in DC is not a neutral optic in a cycle where state posture toward BTC is being repriced globally.

PubKey already carries political symbolism. On September 18, 2024, Donald Trump visited PubKey in New York City, bought cheeseburgers, and paid in BTC, becoming the first US president to transact on-chain in public.

Still No Update On The US Strategic Bitcoin Reserve

Yet the bullish optic lands amid a notable policy vacuum. President Trump’s March 6, 2025 executive order created a US Strategic Bitcoin Reserve, directing agencies to report their digital-asset holdings and transfer forfeited BTC into a reserve that “shall not be sold.”

The same order instructed Treasury and Commerce to develop “budget-neutral” strategies to acquire additional Bitcoin without new taxpayer cost. Those deadlines have passed without a public release of an audit of how much BTC the United States still controls from seizures, what portion is encumbered by restitution or legal claims, or how Treasury intends to operationalize any budget-neutral accumulation path.

Two weeks before the PubKey DC opening, Bessent surprised the community with an unusually direct Bitcoin endorsement on X: “17 years after the white paper, the Bitcoin network is still operational and more resilient than ever. Bitcoin never shuts down. @SenateDems could learn something from that.” The message, posted during a federal shutdown fight, was both partisan jab and institutional compliment, positioning BTC’s uptime as a governance benchmark. The PubKey appearance now extends that rhetorical posture into a physical one.

Put simply, Bessent at PubKey DC is bullish as a social signal, not as a confirmed policy pivot. It suggests that Bitcoin’s legitimacy inside the US fiscal establishment is deepening to the point where the Treasury Secretary can engage with BTC-native spaces without treating them as political risk. But until Treasury releases a full reserve accounting and clarifies whether any lawful budget-neutral acquisition route exists, the Strategic Bitcoin Reserve remains more intent than instrument. Markets can price symbolism quickly; they will ultimately need numbers.

At press time, BTC traded at $85,670
