Lendasat Unveils Lendaswap: Non-Custodial Cross Blockchain Exchange for Bitcoin and Stablecoins 

Lendasat, a Bitcoin-native peer-to-peer lending platform, announced today the launch of Lendaswap, an atomic swap exchange enabling instant, non-custodial trades between Bitcoin and stablecoins across Ethereum and leading EVM-compatible chains.

Powered by the Arkade protocol, Lendaswap uses HTLC-based atomic swaps — a technology similar to that of the Lightning Network — to deliver a seamless experience for anyone looking to swap BTC and stablecoins “without giving up self-custody, creating accounts, or relying on wrapped tokens,” according to a press release shared with Bitcoin Magazine. 

Lendaswap will support Ethereum and Polygon at launch, with planned expansion to Base, Solana, Binance Smart Chain, Arbitrum, and Optimism. Swaps are executed via Arkade, the new implementation of the Ark protocol, which should deliver “instant execution” on the Bitcoin side. Trades are also expected to be possible in both directions, so users will be able to swap BTC for stablecoins and vice versa. 

“Bitcoin self-custody needs more than passive holding, it needs infrastructure,” said Philipp Hoenisch, co-founder of Lendasat, adding that “Lendaswap is a major step in unlocking more utility for BTC, and marks the first step for BitcoinFi. For the first time, anyone can move between Bitcoin and stablecoins without trusting a custodian, without wrapping, and without asking permission. This is what Bitcoin-native finance should look like.”

The startup demonstrates the power and potential of the Bitcoin scripting language, which had for years been dismissed as inferior to that of Ethereum-era blockchains. The Ark protocol used to make Lendaswap possible is an increasingly popular technology among Bitcoin enthusiasts and entrepreneurs. 

None of the Lendaswap tech stack is open source yet, but the company told Bitcoin Magazine it is in their short-term roadmap. Lendaswap is now live at https://swap.lendasat.com/

Bitcoin Price Crashes Below $98,000 Close to Six-Month Lows

Bitcoin price fell sharply today, sliding from an intraday high of $104,000 to $98,113, wiping out earlier gains and marking a decisive breakdown in price action. 

Starting in morning trading, the Bitcoin price consistently bled down from the upper $102,000s to lows of $97,870.

According to Bitcoin Magazine Pro data, the last time Bitcoin price was near these levels (sub $98,000) was in early May — roughly May 8 depending on time zone. Bitcoin price vaulted above $100,000 for over 40 days after that before dipping back to $98,000 in late June.

One possible reason why the bitcoin price is long-term holders that are unloading at record levels. Data from CryptoQuant shows they’ve sold about 815,000 BTC in 30 days — the most since early 2024 — while spot and ETF demand weaken. Profit-taking dominates, with $3 billion in realized gains on Nov. 7 alone. 

Institutional buying has also dropped below daily mining supply, intensifying sell pressure. Prices hover near the crucial 365-day moving average around $102,000, and failure to hold it could trigger deeper losses, according to Bitcoin Magazine Pro analysis. 

Analysts at Bitfinex say the current bitcoin pullback mirrors past mid-cycle retracements, with the drop from October’s high matching the typical 22% drawdown seen throughout the 2023–2025 bull market.

“It is important to note too, that even at the $100,000 level, approximately 72 percent of the total BTC supply remains in profit,” Bitfinex analysts wrote to Bitcoin Magazine. They believe a short relief rally is likely but that a sustained recovery will require fresh demand.

According to The Block, JPMorgan analysts say bitcoin price’s current estimated production cost of $94,000 acts as a historical price floor, suggesting limited downside.

The analysts believe that rising network difficulty has pushed production costs higher, keeping bitcoin’s price-to-cost ratio near historical lows. The analysts maintain a bold 6–12 month upside projection of about $170,000.

All this comes as the U.S. government has reopened after a record 43-day shutdown, the longest in history, following President Trump’s signing of a funding bill late Wednesday. 

While federal operations are resuming, recovery will be slow. Federal workers still await backpay, and air travel delays may persist. 

Timot Lamarre, director of market research at Unchained, described bitcoin to Bitcoin Magazine as a “canary-in-the-coal-mine for liquidity drying up in the market.” He notes that the recent government shutdown caused the Treasury General Account to swell, absorbing liquidity, and adds that with the government reopening, “more liquidity injected into the system will benefit bitcoin’s dollar price in the near term.”

Agencies like the IRS face major backlogs, and national parks struggle to recover lost revenue. The short-term funding measure only extends through January 30, leaving the threat of another shutdown looming. 

The return to normalcy will take time as the effects of the prolonged closure continue to ripple through the economy and public services.

Bitcoin price roared into October as the government shutdown began, surging to new all-time highs above $126,000. But the excitement quickly gave way to turbulence — the bitcoin price swung wildly through the rest of October and into November.

At the time of writing, Bitcoin’s price is at $98,470.

Despite an overall bullish mood in the market, the bitcoin price has continued to slide deeper into the month.

Bitcoin price and Nasdaq is the correlation that only hurts: Wintermute

Bitcoin is still closely tied to the Nasdaq, but it’s showing an unusual pattern: it reacts more strongly to stock market drops than it does to gains, according to a recent report from Wintermute.

This “negative skew”—falling harder on bad equity days than rising on good ones—is typically seen in bear markets, not when BTC is near all-time highs. It suggests that investors are somewhat fatigued, not euphoric.

Two main factors are driving this. First, attention and capital have shifted toward equities in 2025. Big tech and Nasdaq growth stocks are soaking up much of the risk appetite that might have flowed into crypto. Bitcoin moves with the market when things go wrong but doesn’t get the same lift when optimism returns, acting like a high-beta tail of macro risk.

Second, liquidity in crypto is thinner than before. Stablecoin issuance has stalled, ETF inflows have slowed, and exchange depth hasn’t fully recovered. This makes downside moves more pronounced and widens the performance gap.

That said, BTC is holding up remarkably well, according to Wintermute. Even with this persistent downside bias, it’s less than 20% below its all-time high. The pattern is unusual near tops — it usually shows up near bottoms — but it also reflects Bitcoin’s growing maturity as a macro asset.

Bitcoin Miner Bitfarms (BITF) to Exit Bitcoin Mining, Pivot to AI Computing

Bitfarms, one of North America’s largest Bitcoin miners, announced it will gradually wind down its mining operations over the next two years. 

The company plans to shift its focus to high-performance computing (HPC) and artificial intelligence (AI) infrastructure.

The move reflects a broader trend among crypto miners. Falling Bitcoin prices and shrinking profit margins are pushing operators to explore more stable revenue streams. Bitfarms’ Toronto-based operations will increasingly target GPU-as-a-Service offerings and cloud computing solutions.

The company’s Washington State facility will be its first fully converted site. The 18 MW mining farm will be retrofitted to support Nvidia GB300 GPUs with advanced liquid cooling. 

Bitfarms has secured a fully funded, $128 million deal with a major U.S.-based data center partner to supply all necessary equipment and building materials. Completion is targeted for December 2026.

“Despite being less than 1% of our total developable portfolio, we believe that the conversion of just our Washington site to GPU-as-a-Service could potentially produce more net operating income than we have ever generated with Bitcoin mining, providing the Company with a strong cashflow foundation that could fund opex, G&A, and debt service and contribute to capex as we wind down our Bitcoin mining business in 2026 and 2027,” CEO Ben Gagnon said.

Bitfarms and other Bitcoin miners pivoting to AI 

Other miners are making similar bets. Companies such as Cipher and Terawulf have partnered with investors like SoftBank and Google to develop AI-ready data centers. 

These ventures are attracting billions in projected revenue and unlocking additional capital through debt financing.

Bitfarms’ pivot comes amid financial pressures. The company reported a $46 million third-quarter loss on $68 million in revenue. Shares fell about 5.7% in early trading, though the stock has still doubled this year.

The Washington site will feature modular infrastructure for scalable deployment and high-efficiency power management. 

The company aims to monetize the facility through both colocation and cloud services, positioning itself as a provider of AI compute rather than just cryptocurrency infrastructure.

Bitfarms’ broader energy portfolio totals 2.1 GW across North America. Its sites are clustered in regions with robust access to power and fiber, making the shift from Bitcoin mining to AI workloads a natural extension of its existing infrastructure.

While the company emphasizes the potential of HPC/AI, it faces execution risks. Projects could face delays, equipment may not meet performance targets, or the economics of GPU-as-a-Service could underperform expectations.

Lava Abandons Self-Custody Amidst Fund Raise, Sparking Controversy

Lava, the Bitcoin-backed loans software company, sparked controversy among Bitcoin CEOs recently, after a series of announcements following a $200 million fundraise. The company, led by Shehzan Maredia, had previously been marketed as a self-custody wallet and platform, mirroring the functionality of DeFi or decentralized finance products. The new update to the Lava app changed the custody model to a fully custodial and trusted fintech platform, raising questions about the lending company’s legal status. 

The announcement about the fund raise drew the attention of Bitcoin industry leaders, who raised questions about the nature of the investment and the implications of the change in custody model, which Shehzan confirmed in follow-up X posts.  

“The security of our users and their funds is our top priority. Every change we’ve made is guided by that. Lava no longer uses DLCs — discrete log contracts — for loans because the technology doesn’t meet our security standards. Our team built the largest application using DLCs, but we discovered vulnerabilities that we weren’t comfortable having (ex., client-side key risk, hot keys).”  

Shezhan added that “Risks we previously thought were impossible, such as thinking oracles couldn’t be manipulated to liquidate individual users, we figured out were possible in practice. We are unwilling to compromise on security for our users at any level, and we take a very holistic view on removing trust, dependencies, and counterparty risk.”

DLCs are a kind of Bitcoin smart contract that can anchor the spendability of a bitcoin balance to an external event, such as the price of bitcoin in dollar terms, through the use of a third-party “oracle”. Oracle-based decentralized finance technology (DeFi) was recently exploited, resulting in a 20 billion dollar liquidation event, specifically targeting Binance’s stablecoin orderbook. 

Their previous technology, which Shehzan says is still used by users who did not choose to update to the new version of the software, gave end users cryptographic control over part of the account via 2 of 2 multi-signature DLC smart contracts, limiting how the Bitcoin put up by users as collateral could move. 

Lava’s terms of service still claim — as of the time of writing — that the company has “no exclusive custody or control over the contents of your wallet and has no ability to retrieve or transfer its contents.” Yet this contradicts statements made by Shehzan in recent days regarding the company’s pivot to a cold storage custody model.

Despite Shehzan’s clarification and posts on X, critics were skeptical of the reasoning. Some users were alarmed at the fundamental change in the custody model, which caught many by surprise and was communicated poorly, if at all.

One user, Owen Kemeys of Foundation devices, wrote, “Did Lava get my informed consent?” sharing a series of screenshots of the app update messaging, which says nothing about the change in custody model.

Will Foxley of Blockspace media complained, “Why did they roll legacy loans over without contact first. Plus, how did they do this if it was DLCs? Did I sign a bunch of pre-signed transactions that gave them control over the entire loan?”

The pivot has also raised questions about the company’s regulatory status and licenses, as centralized and custodial bitcoin-backed loan providers are arguably regulated under more traditional frameworks. Such regulations tend not to apply to DeFi-style self-custody products, precisely because user funds remain under user control, rather than under the complete control of a third party. With trust custodial trust becoming the Lava model overnight, what regulatory status does the company fall under? 

Jack Mallers, CEO of Strike — a competing Bitcoin company with a Bitcoin-backed loans product line and a market leader — questioned the move, particularly in terms of licensing, which Strike has been working to acquire for years:

“If they’re custodial, how is what they’re doing legal?

Strike has been acquiring licenses for years. You can’t just “flip a switch” from non-custodial to custodial and start offering brokerage, trading, or lending services. That’s unlicensed activity, and it’s very illegal.

What licenses does Lava actually have that allow them to do what they’re doing?” 

Bitcoin Magazine has not independently verified Lava’s licensing status. When asked for comment on the legal strategy and status of Lava, Shezhan pointed Bitcoin Magazine to the company’s FAQ, which does not appear to address the questions directly at all. 

The nature of the investment announced by Lava was also called into question last week, as Cory Klipsten, CEO of Swan — a likely competitor to Lava — has also been actively engaging the story, suggesting it is specifically a line of credit agreement rather than an equity-style VC investment into the company. When asked, Shehzan told Bitcoin Magazine, “we raised both venture and debt,” referring to the 200 million raise announcement, though he did not go into details. 

While the story is still developing and mostly involves discussions and debate on Bitcoin Twitter, the drama highlights the high value Bitcoiners place on self-custody and the risk of closed-source crypto applications, which can be updated without proper transparency or information being delivered to users about how their capital is secured.

Amboss and Voltage Partner to Turn Bitcoin Payments Into a Source of Yield

Amboss Technologies and Voltage have joined forces to launch a new enterprise payment stack that could redefine how businesses handle Bitcoin and stablecoin transactions, according to a release shared with Bitcoin Magazine. 

The collaboration combines Voltage’s Lightning Payments API with Amboss Rails, allowing instant, low-cost payments and automated yield generation on self-custodied Bitcoin.

The goal of the collaboration is to turn what has traditionally been a cost center — payment processing — into a potential revenue stream.

In high-volume industries such as iGaming, prediction markets, and exchanges, fees can consume up to 5% of total transaction volume. Meanwhile, large Bitcoin or stablecoin holdings often sit idle. 

Speedy bitcoin transfers that solve problems

The new Amboss–Voltage integration addresses both these problems. Voltage’s API enables near-instant, global BTC and stablecoin transfers via the Lightning Network, while Amboss Rails manages liquidity dynamically, allowing businesses to earn yield by routing payment flow across the network.

In other more simple words, this partnership will help businesses process Bitcoin and stablecoin payments instantly and cheaply — while turning idle balances and payment costs into a source of yield.

“Payments have long been a drag on margins, but with this combination, we’re flipping the script,” said Jesse Shrader, CEO of Amboss. “Rails provides the yield engine to attract and optimize capital, while Voltage’s Payments API simplifies Lightning adoption. Together, it’s a flywheel that makes enterprise payments and treasury management more efficient and profitable.”

Voltage CEO Graham Krizek said the stack unlocks new capital strategies for businesses. 

“By generating self-custodial yield through Lightning, companies can turn idle Bitcoin into a productive asset that offsets custody costs while supporting real payment flow,” he said.

A key innovation lies in Voltage’s Taproot Assets support, which enables seamless, in-flight exchanges between Bitcoin and stablecoins within a single payment. This lets companies integrate stablecoin payments without compromising on compliance or security, backed by Voltage’s SOC 2 Type II certification.

Early enterprise pilots in iGaming and financial platforms are already testing the system, reporting up to 30% reductions in effective payment processing costs through yield offsets.

The integration also marks a step toward machine-economy-ready infrastructure, where liquidity and payments interact autonomously across the Lightning Network. 

Amboss’ ML-powered routing (MP-Flow) and Voltage’s instant settlement API combine to create a scalable foundation for global Bitcoin-native commerce.

The Amboss–Voltage partnership underscores a growing trend in Bitcoin infrastructure — one where businesses don’t just move value, but also earn from the flow of it.

Equity screens show a broad red, with the S&P 500 down around 1.8% and the entire crypto market under pressure simultaneously.

What appears to be an unexplained wipeout is, in fact, a layered move driven by interest rate expectations, crowded positioning in tech and AI names, and a shift in global risk appetite that is pulling liquidity from the parts of the market that led the prior rally.

Across crypto, the tape was heavy over the last 24 hours: Bitcoin -5.8%, Ethereum -9.4%, XRP -8.8%, Solana -9.2%, and BNB -5.2%. As a result, the total market cap fell by 6% to $3.2 trillion from around $3.4 trillion.

Over $1.1 billion was wiped out from futures markets, according to CoinGlass data, with over $500 million liquidated from Bitcoin positions alone.

Tightening financial conditions reverberate through growth assets.

The first piece sits with the Federal Reserve. Markets spent much of the year pricing in a clear path toward rate cuts and a softer stance on policy.

Recent communication has pushed back on that comfort, with officials leaning toward keeping policy tight for longer and treating incoming data with caution.

Investors had built in a faster easing path, and the adjustment toward fewer or later cuts has pushed yields higher across the curve.

Higher real yields compress the present value of long-dated cash flows, which hits growth stocks and long-duration assets and pulls forward the valuation reset that had been delayed by abundant liquidity.

That repricing feeds directly into the sector that carried much of the index-level gains. The latest leg of the S&P 500 move was led by mega-cap tech and AI-related names.

Markets have been debating whether the earnings and spending path can match the premium baked into those stocks.

Shares of Nvidia, Alphabet, and Tesla have come under pressure as traders reassess how much AI-driven revenue and margin expansion can realistically land within the next few years.

When these names lose altitude, cap-weighted indices move with them, and passive products like SPY show broad declines even if other sectors are relatively stable.

Reshaping risk premiums and driving a broad rethink of where capital can safely sit.

The move is not only about valuations, it is also about positioning and flows. There has been a rotation out of the prior “everything up” phase toward a more defensive stance as policy, macro, and earnings uncertainty builds.

That is visible in the distribution of sector returns. In the most recent session, technology stocks fell by around 2%, while healthcare stocks gained close to 0.9%.

Capital is shifting from high-growth areas with multiple returns to value and defensive sectors, such as healthcare and, in some cases, energy.

From an index-level view, however, the heavy weight of tech means those smaller pockets of green are not enough to offset the drag from mega caps, so the screen still looks uniformly red.

Macro and political headlines are adding to that caution. The Dow fell approximately 397 points in a single session as traders sought to reduce risk and raise cash.

Concerns around fiscal negotiations and the prospect of government shutdown brinkmanship in the United States have added another source of uncertainty to the outlook for growth and policy.

In Europe, the upcoming UK budget forecasts are causing markets to react to the prospect of higher taxes and tighter fiscal room, which is pressuring domestic stocks and weighing on broader European sentiment.

Together, these factors create an environment where cross-border flows into US equities can slow or reverse, which further amplifies weakness in benchmarks such as the S&P 500.

This backdrop matters for crypto because the same drivers shape funding, leverage, and risk appetite on-chain and in derivatives.

How shifting rate expectations and tech unwinds triggered the sell-off.

For much of the year, Bitcoin and large-cap digital assets have behaved as high-beta expressions of the same macro trade that supported growth equities.

When real yields rise, the dollar strengthens, and volatility increases in stocks, multi-asset funds, and crossover traders often reduce their exposure across the board.

That means de-risking in tech portfolios can coincide with reductions in crypto holdings, forced liquidations in perpetual futures, and lower demand for leverage.

Even crypto-native flows feel the impact as stablecoin yields compete with Treasury rates and marginal capital faces a clearer opportunity cost.

At the same time, the structure of equity indices shapes how “everything red” appears on trading dashboards. SPY tracks large-cap US stocks, with considerable weight in information technology and communication services.

When those sectors come under pressure, the ETF reflects that move almost immediately.

According to the Financial Times, a renewed bout of “tech jitters” has driven broad US stock declines, as traders question whether the AI and cloud spend cycle can keep pace with prior expectations.

SPY’s drop of roughly 1.8% fits that pattern, where heavy selling in a concentrated group of leaders pulls the rest of the basket lower even if some defensive or value names are flat or slightly positive.

Flows also matter around the edges. When buyback programs pause during blackout windows, a steady source of corporate demand for shares temporarily disappears.

If that coincides with higher volatility, hawkish central bank messaging, and headline risk around budgets or shutdowns, selling pressure has fewer natural counterparties.

Earnings results have been solid in many cases; yet, the bar set by prior guidance and market expectations leaves less room for an upside surprise.

Parsing what comes next: why cross-asset signals matter now.

In that environment, “good enough” numbers can still lead to downward price moves as traders lock in gains and fade stretched narratives.

For crypto markets, the forward path hinges on how this macro repricing evolves rather than on any single equity session.

If the higher-for-longer policy remains the base case and the cost of capital stays elevated, the hurdle rate for speculative and long-duration assets remains high.

Bitcoin’s role as a liquidity asset, macro hedge, or risk asset can shift across cycles, so monitoring realized correlation with equities, ETF flow data, and stablecoin market value will be important for reading whether the current sell-off reflects a temporary flush or a deeper reset of risk appetite.

For now, a slower path to rate cuts, pressure on crowded tech and AI trades, and more cautious global capital flows are working together to keep both equities and crypto in the same red zone.

November 2025 is shaping up to be a pivotal month for crypto investors. This comes as a wave of several top presales is making waves across different spheres, such as gaming, fintech, and memecoin. Here, we will spotlight the top five presales to watch in November 2025.

As the crypto market recovers from its cyclical downturn, its market cap has risen by nearly 5% to a staggering $4.57 trillion. This increase comes forth amid the major macroeconomic shifts and renewed investor confidence, driven by regulatory clarity in the space. That being the case, many investors are looking for the next 100× presale projects to invest in.

As market sentiments signal a bullish run, based on current market prices, such as Bitcoin hovering around $106k, presales remain the most compelling yet complex arenas for growth. With this generation of projects, launches are more structured, as tokenomics are more transparent, teams are often KYC-verified, and products are frequently live.

This November, there are potential breakout stories that range from Bitcoin Layer-2 projects to GameFi ecosystems, among others. Here are some of the top presales to watch out for in November 2025.

Top Crypto Presales To Close Out 2025

1. Earth Version 2 ($EV2)

Earth Version 2 ($EV2) is a gaming token developed by Funtico and Frozen Dawn Entertainment. It features a game that is available on PC (Steam), PS5, and Xbox. By combining its entertainment with NFTs and blockchain-based economies, EV2 is revolutionizing the gameplay by supporting actual asset ownership, together with play-to-earn opportunities.

With its presale currently underway, EV2’s native token, $EV2, is priced at $0.01. With 90,500 tokens already sold, EV2 is set to increase the price to $0.015 during the presale. This makes the project one of the most lucrative investments for investors who believe in the return of gaming as a central crypto narrative.

2. GoodCrypto (GOOD)

GoodCrypto is not just another crypto presale rocking the space. It is a multi-exchange trading app that seeks to revolutionize the way users trade, track, and manage portfolios. With a total raise of $657,000, its native token, $GOOD, holds considerable promise for its holders. This is courtesy of the 50% revenue share of all swap fees collected on the platform, as well as the swap fee discounts.

With only 20% of the tokens up for presale and the presale ending on November 30, 2025, $GOOD is positioning itself among the presale projects that investors don’t want to miss out on.

3. Best Wallet (BEST)

Best Wallet is a revolutionary non-custodial wallet that aims not only to streamline the buying process but also to provide personalized, multi-wallet portfolios. With over $5.1 million already raised, Best Wallet is underscoring both community confidence and market relevance in what it has to offer.

Beyond that, its users will be able to enjoy seamless cross-chain swaps, all from their phones. Additionally, the early holders of the $BEST token will have the power to participate in governance, pay platform fees, receive staking rewards, and gain early access to new presales. This has made it an interesting pick among the top presales to watch out for in November.

4. Tapzi (TAPZI)

Tapzi has positioned itself as one of the most compelling presales worth looking out for in November. This is because it is the first Web3 gaming platform that focuses on the skills to determine the winner in the game. Its presale is currently live till January 30, 2026, during which the $TAPZI tokens can be bought for $0.0035.

With 69.27% of the tokens already sold, Tapzi aims to sell $150M worth of tokens before launching at $0.01. The difference between the presale and launch value makes it a lucrative investment for buyers who want to make a winning buy. Additionally, as a gamified platform, players can stake $TAPZI and participate in games such as live chess, rock-paper-scissors, and checkers, where winners receive the entire prize pool.

5. Maxi Doge (MAXI)

Maxi Doge is a meme coin with maximalist branding. By leveraging the meme culture that has developed around the successes of Dogecoin and Shiba Inu, Maxi Doge has positioned itself as the next big viral token. A quick look at its presale figures shows that $MAXI is currently trading for $0.0002675 per token.

With over $3.9 million out of the $4.3 million required, the token has shown strong early interest among many. The low entry price and the promise evident from the $800k that has been raised since July 29, 2025, make Maxi Doge a presale project worth watching in 2025 for investors who are excited about 1000× leverage.

Future of Crypto Presales

The crypto presale landscape in 2025 is markedly different from those of previous cycles. This is greatly attributed to the research-driven environment, one where investors demand substance and verifiable progress. For this, all the credit goes to the speculative frenzy that was seen in the 2021 and 2022 era, which paved the way for a more selective path. Not forgetting the diversification in the space, presales now feature more than just meme coins, as innovations can be seen in categories such as Bitcoin scalability, fintech integration, and cross-chain gaming.

Additionally, with the regulatory and audit oversight in place, the current presales are rewarding transparency and penalizing opacity. A collection of all these aspects suggests that the next generation of successful presales will be those that combine innovation with credibility.

Conclusion

Being one of the most dynamic and potentially rewarding frontiers, the presale space in the crypto industry has remained one of the most trodden paths by disciplined investors. With a snapshot of the top presales to watch out for in November, it is clear that the presale market is no longer a speculative lottery but a venture landscape. In a market that rewards early conviction, these five presales represent the most compelling opportunities to watch as 2025 draws to a close.

Bitcoin (BTC) dropped 3% to $98,550.33 as of press time, falling below the psychological $100,000 threshold for the third time this month amid cascading leverage liquidations, persistent ETF outflows, and a broader risk-off posture across digital assets.

The slide accelerated after Bitcoin broke support at $100,000, triggering over $190 million in long liquidations in the past hour, per Coinglass data.

Bitcoin failed to break through the support-turned-resistance level at $106,400 earlier this week, raising concerns about what was to come. However, every time it lost that level, it has always rebounded around the psychological $100,000 support or at least the $99,000 support created back in June.

Total liquidations across the past 24 hours reached $655 million, amplifying downward momentum as over-leveraged positions unwound.

Ethereum declined 5.75% to $3,218.37, Solana dropped 5.2% to $145.55, and BNB fell 3.2% to $922.90, reflecting synchronized selling pressure across major tokens.

ETF flows turn negative as institutional demand softens

US spot Bitcoin ETFs recorded net outflows of $278 million on Nov. 12, contributing to roughly $961 million in cumulative redemptions this month, according to Farside Investors.

The shift from net inflows to modest withdrawals removes a key stabilizing force that supported prices through mid-2025, leaving spot markets more vulnerable to derivatives-driven volatility.

Historical patterns suggest that ETF flow reversals often coincide with consolidation phases rather than periods of directional conviction.

Glassnode’s Nov. 12 analysis confirms that Bitcoin has traded below the short-term holder cost basis of $111,900 since early October, establishing a bearish regime characterized by low liquidity and weak conviction.

The network’s short-term holder realized profit-loss ratio fell below 0.21 near $98,000, indicating that over 80% of the realized value came from coins sold at a loss, representing a capitulation intensity exceeding that of the last three major washouts of the current cycle.

Glassnode identifies the sub-$100,000 zone as a critical battleground where seller exhaustion is beginning to take shape. However, a sustained recovery requires Bitcoin to reclaim the $111,900 cost basis as a level of support.

Sentiment deteriorates as leverage dries up

Bitcoin perpetual futures funding rates remain subdued across major exchanges, with both funding rates and open interest drifting lower since October’s leverage flush.

The absence of aggressive positioning reflects market hesitation, with traders avoiding directional bets as volatility expectations remain elevated.

Options market data reinforces this defensive stance. Put protection trades are priced at an 11% implied volatility premium over calls for short-term expiries, indicating that traders continue to pay for downside insurance.

Open interest concentrates heavily around the $100,000 strike for end-of-November expiries, making this level a critical threshold where dealer hedging flows could amplify volatility if breached.

Recent option flows have focused on puts between the $108,000 and $95,000 strikes, structured as outright protection or calendar spreads that capture expectations of near-term turbulence.

Glassnode’s cost basis distribution heatmap reveals a dense supply cluster between $106,000 and $118,000, representing investors positioned to exit near breakeven.

This supply overhang creates natural resistance where rallies may stall unless renewed inflows absorb distribution pressure.

The firm notes demand from short-term holders, a proxy for new investor momentum, has remained notably weak since June 2025, reflecting an absence of fresh capital entering the market.

Broader risk sentiment deteriorated alongside crypto declines, with higher real yields and persistent funding stress pressuring speculative assets despite the recent resolution of the US government shutdown.

Morgan Stanley’s recent “fall season” note advised clients to harvest gains rather than chase upside during this phase of the four-year cycle, contributing to reduced risk appetite among institutional allocators.

The combination of heavy leverage positioning, soft ETF demand, and structural resistance above current prices transformed each breach below $100,000 into a self-reinforcing cascade.

The post Bitcoin loses its last line of defense: $98k breakdown sparks cascade not seen since May appeared first on CryptoSlate.

When Chainlink briefly appeared on a DTCC reference list, the crypto industry jumped to claim a “LINK ETF confirmed.”

In reality, just like with XRP and Bitcoin, this was just a routine DTCC plumbing update, preparing for potential ETFs long before the SEC signs off. LINK had made it into the settlement system, not past the approvals gate.

However, it is generally a good sign. Most crypto ETFs that appear on the list eventually go live within 6 months. Bitcoin ETFs were listed in October 2023 and finally went live in January 2024, while Canary Capital’s XRP ETF appeared on DTCC this month and went live today.

Still, the distinction matters because it helps ground you in reality, as DTCC’s role begins where speculation usually ends. It’s a post-trade clearinghouse, not a regulator, and its data reflects operational readiness, not policy blessing. Bitcoin, Ethereum, and even XRP have undergone a similar rumor cycle.

The difference between BTC and ETH was that these came after the formal filings were already underway, including exchange rule changes and registration statements that form the backbone of ETF approval. Without both, a ticker on DTCC’s website is just scaffolding: an empty doorway with no house behind it.

The real gatekeepers

To reach day-one trading for a crypto ETF, two main approvals are required in a specific order. First, the exchange seeking to list the ETF must obtain approval for a Rule 19b-4 filing. This filing requests SEC permission to change an exchange rule to list the new product.

This step has often been a stumbling block for crypto ETFs. The SEC evaluates whether there is a “market of significant size” to detect and deter manipulation, or if an alternative surveillance arrangement exists that achieves the same goal.

This standard was the issue in Grayscale’s case, forcing the SEC to clarify the criteria. That led to the approval of spot Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs in 2024.

SEC orders said that oversight deals with markets like CME address manipulation. For Ethereum, exchanges could use correlation analysis to demonstrate that futures and spot prices move together.

Once the 19b-4 approval is in hand, the ETF issuer must submit an S-1 registration statement, detailing the fund’s structure, custodian, pricing, risks, and fees. The SEC reviews this document and may ask follow-up questions, as was the case with the Ether ETF. No trading can begin until the S-1 is declared effective.

In summary, the exchange must first obtain listing approval (19b-4), and the issuer must then obtain offering approval (Form S-1). Only when both approvals are granted can an ETF debut.

In 2025, the SEC introduced a generic-listing framework designed to make these two approval steps simpler for digital-asset ETFs that closely resemble previously approved products. While it certainly shortened the timeline, exchanges still need to demonstrate the underlying market’s liquidity and price reliability. For tokens like LINK, meeting both approval requirements remains challenging.

Why this matters

If a LINK ETF eventually clears all these steps, it could reshape how both crypto natives and everyday investors gain exposure to digital assets.

For the average person, it would mean buying LINK in the same brokerage account where they hold Apple stock or an S&P 500 fund.

No wallet setup, no seed phrases, no learning curve. Tax reporting would also be simpler: 1099 forms instead of the patchwork spreadsheets most self-custody users wrestle with every April.

However, convenience comes with trade-offs. ETF holders pay management fees and may face tracking differences, the small but persistent gap between an ETF’s price and the coin’s actual market value. Early on, spreads can be wide if trading volume is thin.

There’s also a conceptual cost: ETF investors won’t be using LINK in DeFi, staking it (yet), or voting on governance proposals. They’ll be holding exposure, not utility.

Advisors will most likely view altcoin ETFs as a niche asset class in a diversified portfolio, allocating perhaps only a few percentage points of total assets, balanced against the riskier volatility.

Liquidity and the mechanics underneath

ETFs utilize authorized participants and market makers to maintain prices in line with their net asset value. For LINK, thinner markets mean large creations or redemptions could affect prices or DeFi liquidity.

If an ETF holds a significant amount of LINK, it could reduce liquidity on exchanges and staking pools, leading to more pronounced price swings in stressed markets. That’s why the SEC reviews custody and creation-redemption processes closely.

Staking adds complexity. If an ETF stakes LINK, the SEC would likely require more disclosures about the risks akin to BSOL, so it would be harder but entirely plausible.

DTCC’s role is operational, handling settlement and record-keeping. When LINK appeared in its data, it only meant a potential ETF was being readied for possible approval.

Reading the real tells

To distinguish real ETF progress from rumor, focus on official process steps: actual regulatory filings, not screenshots, indicate significant movement toward an ETF launch.

• A 19b-4 approval on the SEC’s website or the Federal Register means an exchange can legally list the product.
• An S-1 going effective on EDGAR means the issuer can actually offer shares to the public.
• DTCC and NSCC listings indicate that the back office is prepared if both events occur, but not before.
• Any SEC discussion of surveillance or correlation analysis, such as the ones cited in the Ethereum approval orders, reveals where the agency’s thinking is headed.

The market now has a clear template, thanks to Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana, and now XRP; yet, each new asset will face its own liquidity and integrity tests. What matters most to investors is that the structure to make altcoin exposure mainstream is now in place. The next phase will determine who gets to walk through it.

DTCC tickers may cause excitement, but they are only a step in the ETF process. The process only concludes when both of the SEC’s approvals, 19b-4 and S-1, are officially granted.

When this happens, it will be evident through formal filings, not screenshots, marking the actual start of the ETF timeline.

The chance of a Chainlink ETF going live in 2025 sat around 30% but after today’s launch of XRPC from Canary Capital, the timeline could well be moved up.

So, keep an eye out for any of the filings mentioned above if you’re chomping at the bit to buy into a LINK ETF.

SAN FRANCISCO – November 13, 2025 – The Graph, the open, universal data layer for web3, today announced the expansion of TRON network support with the launch of The Graph’s Token API, providing developers with immediate access to pre-indexed blockchain data. This expansion builds on the initial integration of Substreams, The Graph’s powerful data-streaming product that went live on TRON earlier this year. Together, the Token API and TRON Substreams enable builders across the TRON ecosystem to accelerate development timelines and scale data infrastructure for both standard and emerging use cases.

The Token API launch represents the latest phase of The Graph’s TRON support, complementing the Substreams integration to deliver two powerful solutions for TRON developers. The combination of these tools eliminates the technical barriers that have traditionally slowed blockchain development, allowing teams to focus on building applications rather than maintaining data pipelines.

Starting today, The Graph’s Token API supports TRON, giving developers instant access to pre-indexed data for the chain’s core use cases. The Token API provides ready-to-use endpoints for balances, token prices across hundreds of trading pairs, swaps, and supported DEXs, including JustSwap, SunSwap, and SunPump. For developers building wallets, payment processors, portfolio trackers, DEXs, block explorers, or lending protocols on TRON, Token API eliminates weeks of custom infrastructure development, delivering production-grade infrastructure without the engineering overhead.

“The Graph established the industry standard for accessing blockchain data, so it’s exciting to see these capabilities coming to the TRON ecosystem,” said Nick Hansen, Team Lead at The Graph Foundation. “For enterprises and institutions building on TRON, having access to production-ready data tools with the flexibility to run on-premise or customize for compliance needs is essential. This integration ensures TRON developers have the infrastructure foundation they need to scale confidently.”

“The Graph’s integration represents a significant advancement for developers building on TRON,” said Sam Elfarra, Community Spokesperson for TRON DAO. “With Token API and Substreams, the TRON ecosystem gains access to solid data infrastructure that has already proven its value across multiple blockchains. This collaboration empowers TRON developers to build more sophisticated applications faster, whether they’re creating DeFi protocols, payment systems, or innovative new use cases that leverage our network’s speed and scale.”

While Token API accelerates standard implementations, TRON developers working on custom solutions or innovative use cases can leverage The Graph’s Substreams with newly publicly available modules and Foundational Stores specifically designed for TRON. The modular architecture allows developers to define precisely how balance, price, swap, and transaction data streams to their databases, making it ideal for AI, analytics, DePIN, gaming, or high-frequency trading applications.

For institutions in regulated spaces, the ability to run Substreams on-premise or modify public modules for custom data pipelines ensures compliance requirements are met while maintaining auditability. This flexibility enables institutions to scale payment systems to handle thousands or millions of transactions per second while maintaining the data infrastructure needed for regulatory oversight.

TRON has established itself as one of the world’s most actively used blockchain networks, processing over $25 billion in daily transfer volume and hosting more than 345 million user accounts. With over $76 billion in circulating USDT on the network and a total value locked exceeding $24 billion, TRON’s scale demands robust data infrastructure to support its growing ecosystem of applications and developers.

The Graph’s integration addresses this critical need by providing blockchain developers with reliable data infrastructure that scales. Whether building standard DeFi applications with Token API or implementing sophisticated custom solutions with Substreams, developers now have production-ready tools to build on TRON without infrastructure constraints.

Developers can now begin using The Graph’s Token API for TRON, with documentation and modules publicly available for teams exploring Substreams or custom data solutions. The Graph’s core development team, Pinax, will continue expanding DEX and token support based on demand, ensuring the infrastructure evolves alongside TRON’s growing ecosystem.

As TRON continues expanding its ecosystem, The Graph provides the infrastructure that enables builders to focus on application logic rather than data pipelines, regardless of use-case complexity or scale requirements. This integration marks a significant step forward in making blockchain data more accessible and scalable for developers worldwide.

The bitcoin market just took another heavy hit. U.S. spot bitcoin ETFs recorded $869.9 million in outflows on Thursday, making it the second-largest daily exit since these products launched. That kind of number doesn’t happen quietly. It rippled through the entire market, dragged prices lower, and sparked fresh questions about whether this is fear taking over or simply a reset before the next leg up.

Why Did Spot Bitcoin ETFs Suddenly See Such Big Outflows?

Thursday’s mass exit wasn’t an accident. According to SoSoValue data, several major funds were hit hard. Grayscale’s Bitcoin Mini Trust saw the biggest drain at $318.2 million. BlockRock’s IBIT wasn’t far behind with $256.6 million slipping out, while Fidelity’s FBTC lost $119.9 million. Even GBTC and funds from Ark, 21Shares, Bitwise, VanEck, Invesco, Valkyrie, and Franklin Templeton were in the red.

This move ranks just behind the all-time record set on February 25, 2025, when investors pulled $1.14 billion in a day.

So what’s going on? The institutional flows tend to move together. When macro conditions start feeling shaky, these players reduce risk in clusters.

Vincent Liu, CIO of Kronos Research, summed it up well. Large outflows reflect a risk-off turn, he said. Institutions are stepping back as macro noise builds, but he doesn’t see it as a collapse in long-term demand. Instead, he views these drops as part of an oversold setup that long-term buyers might soon take advantage of.

What’s Triggering This Risk-Off Mood?

Markets aren’t reacting to a single shock. It’s more of a pile-up of small but worrying signals.

Min Jung of Presto Research noted that investors are rotating out of higher-beta assets and moving toward safety. The uncertainty around the Fed is a big piece of this. Weak ADP and NFIB readings point to a softening labor market. That feeds into expectations that the Fed is preparing to ease, but with caution. And traders hate uncertainty more than bad news.

Fed rate-cut odds for December have now slipped to 50.4 % according to the CME FedWatch Tool. When central bank direction becomes fuzzy, money tends to retreat from volatile assets first. Bitcoin is always at the front of that line.

How Did Bitcoin Price React to the Bitcoin ETFs Outflows?

The Bitcoin price action was quick and sharp. Bitcoin price dropped 6.4% over the past 24 hours, touching $96,956 early Friday.

Liu described the sell-off as a liquidity let-down. With cascading liquidations and fewer buyers in the order book, every drop hits harder. According to him, demand is clustering between $92,000 and $95,000, which could act as a cushion if selling continues.

Justin d’Anethan from Arctic Digital echoed the same idea. He pointed out that if bitcoin dips into the lower $90Ks, plenty of sidelined investors will view that zone as an opportunity. Not long ago, BTC was climbing past the mid-$120Ks. Many missed that move and are waiting for a deeper reset.

Is There a Bigger Trend Behind the Sell-Off?

Sometimes a crash has a clear trigger. This wasn’t one of those days. Jung noted that the pullback didn’t come from a single event. Instead, it was a blend of macro uncertainty, weakening risk appetite, and jittery flows ahead of the next FOMC meeting.

When the market feels unsure, even neutral data gets interpreted negatively. That’s the kind of environment bitcoin is dealing with right now.

What Happens Next?

The story isn’t over. The next few sessions will show whether the $92K to $95K range can hold. If it does, $BTC might see a relief bounce as liquidity stabilizes and buyers return. If it breaks, the lower $90Ks could come into focus quickly.

Here’s what matters most right now:

• Bitcoin ETF outflows are a reflection of macro anxiety, not a collapse in bitcoin’s long-term story.
• Liquidity is thin, so volatility stays elevated.
• Support zones are nearby, and long-term buyers are watching closely.

This is the kind of environment where panic selling and strategic accumulation happen at the same time. The next bounce will reveal which side is in control.

Ethereum Loses Key Support as Market Panic Spreads

$Ethereum has officially broken below the $3,200 support zone, a level that has held multiple times over the past weeks. This breakdown comes immediately after Bitcoin’s violent crash under $100,000, which triggered market-wide panic selling.

ETH/USD 4-hours chart - TradingView

$ETH reacted instantly, falling more than 5% in a single 4H candle as buyers failed to defend the yellow support line on your chart.

ETH Chart Analysis: Strong Support Hit – But Not Safe

The chart above shows:

• A clean double-bottom around $3,200 in early November
• Several failed attempts to reclaim $3,430–$3,480, confirming heavy sell pressure
• A strong rejection at the 21 EMA (yellow arrows) right before the crash
• Momentum turning bearish as Stoch RSI curls downward

Now that $BTC broke below 100K, the historical correlation strongly suggests ETH will not hold the $3,200 floor this time.

Ethereum Price Prediction: Next Ethereum Price Targets

If ETH loses the $3,200–$3,150 band:

🔻 $3,000 – psychological level: Likely to be tested quickly if BTC continues sliding.

🔻 $2,850 – $2,800 – major demand zone: This is the next real support on the macro chart. ETH should reach this area next if Bitcoin remains under pressure.

🔻 In an extreme flush: $2,650: Upside recovery only starts if ETH reclaims:

🔼 $3,350 – $3,480: Critical resistance cluster. Failure here = continuation down.

Bitcoin Price Breaks 100K: A Critical Psychological Level Lost

$Bitcoin has officially broken below the $100,000 psychological support, sending shockwaves across the crypto market. The 4H chart shows a sharp rejection from the $104K–106K resistance zone, followed by a steep selloff that accelerated once BTC slipped under the yellow support area.

BTC/USD 4-hours chart - TradingView

The break below $100K wasn’t just technical—it triggered panic selling, liquidations, and a massive imbalance in the order book, all visible in the depth chart.

$BTC is now trading around $98,500, with fear rising rapidly as traders reassess downside risks.

Bitcoin Crash: BTC Loses Structure and Re-Tests Local Lows

1. Major resistance rejection

On the 4H chart:

• BTC attempted to reclaim the $104K–106K zone, but the rejection (highlighted by your yellow arrow) confirmed strong seller dominance.
• Moving averages (9/21 EMA cross) remain bearish.
• Price quickly accelerated toward the next major support: $100K.

2. Support finally breaks

The long-tested horizontal zone at $100,000 has acted as:

• A psychological barrier
• A liquidity magnet
• A momentum pivot

Once price slipped under it, the market reacted violently.

3. Momentum indicators signal oversold

Stoch RSI is diving into oversold territory, suggesting short-term exhaustion—
…but not enough yet to prevent further downside if liquidity gets swept.

Depth Chart Analysis: Heavy Sell-Side Pressure

The depth chart clearly shows:

• Massive buy liquidity from 99K → 95K wiped out
• Increasing sell walls from $102K–105K

The order book shows a strong imbalance:

Buy-side liquidity (green):

• Deep stack down at $98K–96K
• Thinner liquidity as you approach $100K → meaning less support to stop crashes

Sell-side liquidity (red):

• Thick sell walls starting at $102K
• Strong bearish pressure preventing a quick recovery
• This confirms stronger sellers than buyers, signaling that BTC may not reclaim $100K immediately.

Bitcoin Price Prediction: What Comes After the Crash?

Immediate Support Levels

🔻 $98,300 – first bounce zone: (This area appears in both the trading chart and depth chart as a large liquidity pocket.)

🔻 $96,000 – $95,500: Stronger buy liquidity zone. If BTC continues falling, this is the next major support.

🔻 $92,000 – $90,000: A complete liquidity sweep may target this region if panic selling accelerates.

Upside Recovery Targets

If BTC manages to reclaim $100K:

🔼 $102,000 – $103,500: First resistance cluster (21 EMA + sell wall)

🔼 $104,000 – $106,000: The key area where BTC was previously rejected. Must be broken to regain bullish structure.

🔼 $108,400: 200 SMA resistance on the 4H—major trend confirmation point.

Market Sentiment: Fear Is Rising, But Opportunity Brewing?

The break below $100K triggered:

• Liquidations
• Panic exits
• Social sentiment collapse
• Derivatives funding flipping negative

However, structurally:

• BTC is still in a macro uptrend
• $96K–$98K has strong spot demand
• Whales historically accumulate during shakeouts
• Short-term pain is possible, but long-term buyers may see this as a rare dip.

The wait is finally over. XRP just stepped into a new league with the launch of the Canary XRP ETF (XRPC), the first U.S.-listed spot ETF designed to track the real-time price of XRP. It opened trading on Nasdaq on November 13 and immediately drew heavy interest, clocking nearly $500,000 in volume within the first five minutes and over $916,000 within the first half-hour. For a digital asset known for speed and utility, this debut couldn’t be more fitting.

This launch isn’t just another XRP ETF story. It marks a major turning point where traditional finance and blockchain utility finally intersect in a regulated U.S. market.

Why XRPC’s Launch Matters Right Now

XRP has always been different. It wasn’t built as a speculative coin or memecoin. It was designed for one purpose: moving value across borders quickly, cheaply, and reliably. With the rise of institutional interest in real-world utility tokens, this was the right moment for Canary XRP ETF to emerge.

Nasdaq’s certification gives the fund legitimacy, clarity, and accessibility that XRP hasn’t enjoyed before. Now investors can gain direct spot exposure to XRP without navigating wallets, private keys, or exchanges.

What XRPC Actually Tracks

XRPC is built to mirror the performance of the XRP Ledger across payment flows and liquidity protocols. Instead of promising active management or market timing, the ETF keeps things simple: it follows XRP’s spot price.

Steven McClurg, CEO of Canary Capital, summed it up clearly: accessibility to XRP through an ETF unlocks the next wave of adoption for a network already used in cross-border settlements, tokenization, and fast value transfer.

In other words, XRPC isn’t about hype. It’s about giving investors a clean, regulated way to participate in one of the most established blockchain payment systems in the world.

How Strong Was the ETF’s First-Day Hype?

The first-day hype around XRPC was obvious from the opening bell. Trading kicked off with about $130,000 in volume at market open, and within just five minutes activity on Robinhood alone had already crossed the $500,000 mark. 

By the 30-minute point, total volume had climbed past $916,000, showing that buyers were lining up fast. 

Even before launch, Bloomberg analysts were calling for a big debut, with estimates ranging from $17 million to $34 million in first-day volume. Put together, these numbers show real demand from investors who’ve been waiting for a regulated, simple way to gain exposure to $XRP.

The Bigger Picture

The first U.S. spot XRP ETF isn’t just a financial product. It’s a signal. Utility-driven digital assets are gaining traction, regulators are opening doors, and investors are finally getting tools that make sense inside traditional markets.

If Bitcoin ETFs pulled institutions into crypto, XRP’s XRPC might be what brings them to real-world blockchain utility.

The banking group warned that Sony's stablecoin charter could undermine consumer protections and bypass rules.

BlackRock’s iShares Bitcoin Trust totaled more than a quarter billion in investments, in the worst day of Bitcoin ETF outflows since February.

The case will hinge on evidence of whether competitors are truly blocked from Apple's iOS ecosystem, a legal expert told Decrypt.

Investors retreated across risk assets on Thursday as Bitcoin’s slide hints at fading demand and heavier long-term holder selling.

Canary's XRP fund opened with record activity for the year despite a broader market pullback that has weighed on crypto prices.

Bitcoin's three-day plunge to $97,000 triggered a $600 million realized-loss spike and midterm holder capitulation, yet Samson Mow believes the move is nothing more than a bear trap.

Canarary Capital's XRP ETF has registered the biggest trading volume out of more than 900 ETFs that have debut in 2025

Sigel respects the energy of XRP fans but is highly skeptical of XRP’s real-world utility and token economics.

Finally, we are seeing some recovery possibilities for multiple assets right away. But they might be temporary.

XRP’s price trajectory in the last four hours has triggered a brutal 3254% liquidation imbalance amid the growing buzz on the ETF launch.

TLDR

• Dogecoin price dropped 7.1% in the last 24 hours, currently at $0.1623.
• RSI trends indicate a potential for a bullish breakout.
• Dogecoin rose from $0.060 to over $0.300 in May-July before a drop.
• The price has fluctuated but remained within a downward trend recently.
• Market cap stands at $24.63 billion with a 48.04% increase in 24-hour trading volume.

Dogecoin, the leading meme coin in the market, has hinted at a new price structure as it prepares for a bull takeover. For the last month, the meme coin has been trading through a downward trend with a loss above 20%. However, market analysts have noted a familiar price action that will change the course.

DOGE Price Shows Potential for Bullish Breakout

According to an analysis prepared by Trader Tardigrade, Dogecoin price initially rose from around $0.060 in May, reaching a peak above $0.300 by early July. This upward trend was confirmed by the RSI breaking above a descending trendline. However, the price subsequently dropped, touching a low point near $0.160 by mid-November. During this period, the RSI showed a trend reversal, breaking below its previous uptrend. As of the current data, Dogecoin’s price has returned to the $0.160 level.

Given this price movement, there is potential for another bullish breakout. The RSI suggests a trendline breakout, signaling a shift in momentum. If the Dogecoin price breaks above its recent resistance levels, similar to the pattern in May and June, a renewed bullish phase could occur. The RSI and price action may align once again, leading to a potential rise in Dogecoin’s price. However, confirmation of such a move depends on further developments in price and RSI behavior.

Dogecoin Price Drops 7.1%, Showing Continued Bearish Trend

According to CoinMarketCap data at the time of press, the Dogecoin price currently stands at $0.1623, reflecting a 7.1% decrease in the last 24 hours. The market cap is $24.63 billion, with a 24-hour trading volume of $3.1 billion, showing a 48.04% increase. Over the past 24 hours, the Dogecoin price has experienced consistent decline. Starting from $0.1758, it fell steadily to $0.1623. The price chart displays a clear downward trend with minimal recovery.

Throughout the period, the Dogecoin price fluctuated but remained mostly within the lower range. There are no significant upward movements in this timeframe, confirming a bearish sentiment. The volume-to-market cap ratio stands at 12.47%, further indicating lower trading activity relative to market capitalization. Despite the fluctuation in volume, the Dogecoin price continues to show a negative trend, with no immediate signs of reversal. This behavior aligns with recent price movements seen in the last few days, reinforcing the ongoing bearish outlook for Dogecoin price.

TLDR:

• BitMine names Chi Tsang as CEO while adding three independent directors across finance and legal sectors.
• The company reports controlling more than 2.9 percent of all ETH as part of its long-term strategy.
• Major investors including ARK and Founders Fund back BitMine’s target to reach five percent ETH ownership.
• New board members align with BitMine’s push to position itself as a core Ethereum financial institution.

BitMine Immersion Technologies advanced its leadership overhaul with a new CEO appointment and three board additions. The company confirmed the update through a press release shared on Nov. 14. 

The leadership change signals a new phase in its long-running Ethereum accumulation strategy. The update also reflects the firm’s intent to strengthen its position within the broader crypto market.

BitMine Expands Senior Leadership as Ethereum Strategy Grows

BitMine said in its announcement that Chi Tsang will take over as CEO and secure a seat on the company’s board. The update follows Jonathan Bates’s exit after leading the firm through its public listing and major Ethereum build-out. 

The press release added that Tsang’s appointment aligns with BitMine’s plan to operate as a financial institution centered on the Ethereum ecosystem. Sources in the release described the transition as a step that prepares the company for a new wave of blockchain-driven innovation.

The company also confirmed three new independent directors as part of the same leadership shift. The list includes Robert Sechan from NewEdge Capital Group, Olivia Howe from RigUp, and Jason Edgeworth from JPD Family Holdings. 

All three appointments take effect immediately according to the disclosure. Their combined backgrounds span wealth management, legal strategy, and family-office asset allocation.

BitMine stated in the release that it holds over 2.9 percent of the Ethereum network. This makes the company the largest ETH treasury operation by its own measure. The firm aims to acquire five percent of all ETH in circulation as part of its stated long-term roadmap. Stakeholders in the document described this target as the “alchemy of 5 percent.”

The company credited institutional groups for its ongoing accumulation campaign. The press release listed ARK’s Cathie Wood, MOZAYYX, Founders Fund, Bill Miller III, Kraken, DCG, and Galaxy Digital as supporters of the strategy.

These backers appear in the release as collaborators for BitMine’s multi-year expansion plan. Their presence signals further institutional involvement in the ETH market.

Board Members Note Ethereum’s Momentum and Company Direction

Sechan referenced his long association with Tom Lee in the source document and connected Ethereum’s growth to earlier secular market cycles. The release positioned his market experience as central to his new role at BitMine. 

Howe also noted in the filing that she observed the company’s rise from an unknown operator to the largest Ethereum DAT. This perspective frames her involvement as part of a broader scaling effort.

Edgeworth added in the release that BitMine’s plan to operate as essential infrastructure for Ethereum aligns with his long-term focus. His background in family-office management appears in the press document as relevant to BitMine’s next stage. 

The company said these additions help prepare the board for the demands of institutional Ethereum finance. The update positions the company to compete for larger roles within the changing crypto stack.

BitMine’s chairman, Tom Lee, appeared prominently throughout the announcement. His prior work in research, crypto advocacy, and sector trend analysis was referenced repeatedly in the source material. 

The release framed his leadership as a key anchor for the company’s shifting focus. His involvement remains central as BitMine continues its Ethereum-focused mandate.

The next crypto bull cycle is brewing, and early presale entries are once again becoming the go-to strategy for traders chasing 100x gains. Projects like Opter, BFX, and BDAG still give early buyers a serious edge. Each one targets a different sector of blockchain, but which has the best upside potential?

Opter: The future of decentralized perpetual trading

Opter is not your ordinary decentralized exchange. It gives you the best of both worlds of CEXs and DEXs: liquidity and speed of centralized platforms, but offering transparency and custody like DEXs. Traders keep full control of their assets while enjoying lightning fast execution and verifiable settlements — all without KYC or middlemen.

Then there is its XP and Prestige system, making trading a truly a rewarding experience. Users earn XP as they trade, unlocking benefits like fee rebates, staking boosts, and seasonal airdrops.

The $OPTER presale is one of a kind. Users can either partake in a regular presale or earn via trading volume farming. Every $100,000 traded shells out 1,200 $OPTER tokens. This gives active participants a clear edge while ensuring tokens go to those who actually drive the ecosystem.

Opter’s fundamentals are equally strong:

• On Chain Leverage: Up to 100x leverage with transparent execution.
• Fee Burning and Staking: 50% of fees collected are burnt, while 20% is returned to stakers.
• Already Live: Opter is not a dream, but an active trading platform exceeding $130 million in volume.

Giving the power of DEXs, with the speed of CEXs, $OPTER is a serious contender for the best crypto presale of the year.

BFX: RWAs meet blockchain liquidity

The BFX presale is gaining traction as real-world asset tokenization continues to explode. BFX enables fractionalized ownership of commodities, stocks, and real estate — giving users on-chain access to previously illiquid assets.

Unlike early RWA projects, BFX emphasizes liquidity and composability. Tokenized assets can be freely traded, staked, or used as collateral across DeFi protocols. The BFX token powers governance, transaction fees, and staking rewards. Presale buyers also earn tiered bonuses, incentivizing early participation.

With institutional interest in RWAs on the rise, coupled with cross chain interoperability, BFX is on track to become a major player in the market, with experts estimating 100x growth.

BDAG: A launchpad fueling DeFi’s next wave

The BDAG project focuses on empowering the next generation of DeFi startups. Its multi chain launchpad provides funding, incubation, and fair access to new projects through a transparent, community-driven model.

Holding the BDAG token allows users to stake for guaranteed allocations in presales and vote on which projects move forward. The platform shares launch fees with token holders, giving stakers a sustainable yield stream.

Each project onboarded by BDAG undergoes multi-stage audits and community vetting — a major plus for investors seeking safety in early-stage plays. As such, the unique approach is a reason supporting the possibility of the project delivering 100x this season.

Which presale will deliver 100x first?

$OPTER, BFX, and BDAG each offer something unique — but Opter’s hybrid model and active reward system give it a clear advantage. The ability to both buy and farm $OPTER tokens through trading volume makes it a standout in terms of utility and user engagement.

While BFX and BDAG both target strong sectors, $OPTER already has a functioning platform, deflationary tokenomics, and a proven user incentive model.

For those still early, it may be the best chance to catch the next 100x before presale stage 1 moves ahead.

These transactions highlight substantial on-chain activity involving large amounts of BTC, ETH, and stablecoins, with notable participants including Binance, Aave, Fidelity, and Anchorage Digital.

Bitcoin and Ethereum Current Market Action Revealed

Tracking the ongoing price trend of Bitcoin and Ethereum at the time of press, a comparative chart between the two reveals that Bitcoin is priced at $97,114.55, reflecting a decline of 6.15%. Over the same period, Ethereum’s price dropped to $3,204.89, experiencing a larger 9.43% decrease.

Both assets show a similar downward trend, with Bitcoin initially trading higher, followed by a sharp decline. The volume of Bitcoin traded in the past 24 hours reached $114.85 billion, with a significant 50.7% increase in trading volume compared to the previous period.

At the time of observation, Bitcoin’s market cap stands at $1.93 trillion, and its price has fallen by 6.43%. Ethereum’s market activity mirrors Bitcoin’s, with similar price drops over the day. The market movements indicate a period of volatility for both cryptocurrencies, with large fluctuations within a short timeframe.

The post Whales and Institutions Buy the Dip in BTC and ETH: Are They Preparing for a Reversal? appeared first on Blockonomi.

The cryptocurrency market has undergone a significant correction, erasing a major portion of the year’s earlier gains. Total market capitalization has contracted more than 20% since October, dropping from roughly $4.4 trillion to about $3.32 trillion. Bitcoin’s retreat below $100,000 and Ethereum’s slide into the mid-$3,000 range triggered widespread liquidations as leveraged positions were forced to unwind across major exchanges.

This downturn arrived alongside a risk-off rotation in global equities, amplifying caution across traditional and digital markets. Analysts note similarities to past reset periods where fear temporarily dominated before liquidity gradually returned. A recent note from QCP Capital described this phase as “a temporary pause,” pointing out that sentiment remains fragile yet not fundamentally broken.

Market Resets Often Reveal Stronger Projects

Veterans in the space see these contraction phases as necessary cleanups that filter out short-term speculation. Previous resets followed the same pattern: heavy deleveraging, sharp liquidations, and a swift exit of momentum-driven capital before fundamentals regained center stage. Analysts tracking long-term flows have noted that institutional wallets historically resume accumulation during the early stages of these resets, well before retail confidence returns.

The current backdrop mirrors that behavior. Trading firms and high-net-worth investors are shifting attention away from hype-only tokens and toward ecosystems demonstrating real architecture, transparent mechanics, and verifiable development progress. This shift has amplified interest in projects with clearly defined economic logic rather than the ambiguous models that dominated earlier in the cycle.

XRP Tundra fits this transition point. Its dual-chain system, clear token roles, documented staking roadmap, and public audits align with the traits that tend to outperform during consolidation phases. Participation has remained resilient across the downturn because its value proposition does not rely on short-term market momentum; instead, it leans on predictable processes that make sense to long-horizon participants.

XRP Tundra Maintains Steady Growth Through the Pullback

The project’s Phase 11 presale continues at $0.183 per TUNDRA-S with a 9% token bonus, paired with TUNDRA-X at a reference value of $0.0915. These are the only active metrics for the current stage, and buyers are treating them as structured entry points rather than speculative gambles.

Despite the broader correction, XRP Tundra has generated more than $2.5 million in presale contributions and distributed over $32,000 in bonus rewards through the Arctic Spinner system. The reward wheel remains an active driver of engagement, with new buyers returning daily for the free spin, increasing the ecosystem’s user depth even when market volumes fall elsewhere.

Additional visibility came through Crypto Volt’s YouTube channel, where the analyst noted that audited ecosystems with transparent presale mechanics tend to preserve inflows even during market-wide sell-offs.

Utility and Verification Position the Ecosystem for Recovery

The dual-token structure sits at the center of XRP Tundra’s long-term resilience. TUNDRA-S manages utility, yield generation and future staking rewards, while TUNDRA-X represents governance, reserves, and system oversight. Separating the economic roles prevents both tokens from competing for the same liquidity and eliminates the dilution loops that often destabilize single-token models in early-stage projects.

This architecture also shapes how value flows once staking activates. The Cryo Vault framework — Liquid, Balanced and Premium tiers — assigns distinct lock periods and reward structures, allowing participants to choose between flexibility and higher APY. TUNDRA-S becomes the engine of the system, while TUNDRA-X provides the reserve weight behind its stability. Early buyers gain guaranteed access to all vaults once they go live, giving presale participants a structural advantage over post-launch entrants.

This approach aligns with the project’s liquidity infrastructure as well. The use of DAMM V2 on the Solana side allows TUNDRA-S to interact with pools that apply dynamic fees and anti-dump mechanisms during the opening liquidity phase. Once vaults activate, fee revenue generated by early trading cycles can be routed into the reward structure, strengthening the correlation between ecosystem usage and staking output.

External Audits and KYC Strengthen Market Confidence

Credibility has become a defining filter during bearish markets, and XRP Tundra places verification at the center of its development. The project has completed three independent audits — each publicly accessible for review through Cyberscope, Solidproof, and FreshCoins.

The development team is also fully verified through Vital Block’s KYC certification, adding a layer of accountability rarely found in early-stage presale ecosystems.

These validations provide traceable proof of smart-contract integrity and team transparency. As speculative inflows weaken across the sector, projects built on verifiable structure are retaining participation, and XRP Tundra remains one of the clearest examples of stability supported by documented oversight.

A Reset Can Build the Foundation for Momentum

Fear-driven corrections have repeatedly acted as the starting point for new capital rotations. XRP Tundra’s sustained engagement, dual-chain model, and transparent economics indicate that accumulation is still taking place beneath the surface of the broader downturn. Early presale wallets continue to hold and add to their positions, showing that buyers view the current phase as an opportunity rather than a setback.

As the market stabilizes, ecosystems grounded in documented structure often emerge stronger than before, and XRP Tundra is already displaying the kind of steady participation that typically precedes renewed momentum.

Interested investors can secure their allocation early and follow ongoing updates as conditions evolve.

The post Learn Why Recent Crypto Market Downturn Could Be The Calm Before The Storm For XRP Tundra appeared first on CryptoPotato.

In line with the rest of the cryptocurrency market, Ripple’s native token turned dark red today with a notable 9% drop that pushed it south to under $2.30 as of press time.

Trading volumes have picked up to more than $7 billion on crypto exchanges, but the interest in the token seems to be growing due to the launch of the first US-based spot XRP ETF that has a 100% exposure to the asset.

CryptoPotato reported yesterday that the last hurdle for Canary Capital’s XRPC fund had been resolved after the US SEC failed to object to its launch and the Nasdaq published the official listing notice. Hours later, the financial vehicle went live and broke SOL’s record for trading volumes on the launch day.

Although this sounds like a bullish development, there was a warning hidden in the first report. In the few days leading up to the ETF release, on-chain data showed that the 7-day moving average of XRP’s Exchange Network into Binance had turned positive, which typically suggests that large holders (known as whales) are moving significant quantities of the asset onto trading platforms, with the likely intention to sell.

This aligned with previous warning signs coming from such market participants. In fact, whales had sold off roughly 1.4 billion tokens in the span of just a month or so, which not only increases the immediate selling pressure but could serve as an example for retail investors to abandon ship.

Consequently, even though the most probable reason for XRP’s plunge today is the overall market correction that drove the entire capitalization south by $200 billion in 24 hours, there could be a bigger story.

The investor exodus from above and previous AI claims that the ETF launch will inevitably become a classic ‘sell-the-news’ event are also among the main culprits behind XRP’s nosedive from $2.52 to $2.28.

The good news for the short term is that the token dumped to a buy wall located at around $2.20, which previously held during a correction. It currently serves as the first substantial support area before a drop to $2.00.

The post Why Is Ripple’s (XRP) Price Down Today (November 14)? appeared first on CryptoPotato.

The Canary XRP ETF (XRPC) logged a standout first trading session on November 13, posting more than $58.5 million in volume and about $245 million in net inflows.

The debut pushed XRPC ahead of Bitwise’s Solana fund (BSOL), which previously held this year’s top spot for ETF launches.

XRPC Lands as Year’s Biggest ETF Launch

XRPC surged out of the gate at market open after Nasdaq certified the listing the evening before, with analyst Eric Balchunas noting that the fund traded $26 million within its first 30 minutes, surpassing his $17 million projection, and ultimately edging out BSOL’s earlier $57 million opening-day figure.

Community reaction was lively. Journalist Eleanor Terrett said she wasn’t shocked the fund topped the charts, joking that “with the XRP Army behind it, is anyone really surprised?” Meanwhile, ETF expert Nate Geraci highlighted that nearly every crypto ETF launch in the past two years has beaten Wall Street’s initial expectations, pointing to a pattern of deep-pocketed demand that the traditional finance “old guard” continues to underestimate.

Part of the disconnect between trading volume and inflows came down to in-kind creations, Geraci explained. These large institutional allocations do not appear in trading data, helping clarify how XRPC could post nearly a quarter-billion dollars in inflows despite sub-$60 million in visible volume.

The product’s launch follows a broader wave of crypto ETFs that went live through automatic SEC registration rules. The same methods helped launch BSOL and other spot products for Litecoin and HBAR in late October, with XRPC using a similar setup that provides access through a 1933 Act vehicle and depends on Form 8-A certification instead of needing approval from the regulator.

XRP Market Picture and What Comes Next

XRP itself has been trading around $2.28, sliding roughly 9% over the last 24 hours. Despite the pullback, the token is still nearly 3% higher this week and more than 220% year over year.

However, in the last 30 days, it has softened, drifting about 9% lower as part of a broader cooldown across major altcoins. The current range between $2.27 and $2.52 places it well below its July all-time high near $3.65, though far above its early-cycle lows.

Analysts have been watching whether ETF demand could help XRP regain momentum after several weeks of uneven trading. Earlier coverage pointed to potential friction between new institutional buying and profit-taking from long-standing holders, a dynamic that may continue to shape price action through the coming sessions.

With fresh bipartisan efforts in Congress to give XRP formal commodity status under the CFTC, first floated on November 10, the regulatory backdrop may also play a role in how the asset performs against rising ETF interest.

Bitcoin has broken below the $100,000 mark. As of press time, the price sits at $97,1000, down 6% over the last 24 hours and 4% in the past seven days.

Meanwhile, volume remains high, and sellers continue to control the market. Traders are watching key levels to assess whether more downside is likely.

Price Rejected at $107K, Trend Turns Lower

The $107,000 zone once again acted as unbreakable resistance. Bitcoin failed to move above it, then quickly reversed. Michaël van de Poppe noted the rejection led to a move below $100,000, which swept the previous lows. He said a move back above $100,700 is needed to change the current trend.

Rejection at $107K triggered a potential test on the downside.

That took place.

Now, it lost the $100K area and took all the liquidity beneath the lows for #Bitcoin.

It’s not great, and the trend (lower timeframes) is down.

Notably, the short-term structure shows consistent lower highs and lower lows. Daan Crypto Trades pointed out that BTC has now broken below the June low around $98,000. He also noted that both the daily 200EMA and 200MA have been lost. These are widely followed by traders and funds, and their loss suggests trend weakness.

Daan added that spot selling has picked up. He observed 14 consecutive 15-minute red candles, showing steady sell pressure. Some short covering could take place around this area, but resistance remains above.

On-Chain Data Points to Thin Support Below

Glassnode’s URPD chart shows that most BTC was last moved around $95,930, with around 230,728 units at that price. This level now acts as a major support zone.

Ali Martinez, a market analyst, pointed out that the next key levels are $82,045 and $66,900. They also show high UTXO activity, with 135,789 BTC and 213,578 BTC moved there.

Between $95,930 and $82,000, the chart shows lower on-chain activity. This means fewer holders have history in that range, so the price could drop quickly if the current support breaks.

In addition, analyst Crypto Patel commented that BTC dropped as expected after retesting the $106K–$107K zone, adding that the 0.5–0.618 Fibonacci range is now key.

“If it fails, BTC could slide below $80K.”

As CryptoPotato reported, the $94,000 area is also being watched. It aligns with the 66-week exponential moving average and an unfilled CME futures gap. These gaps are often filled later, so this zone may still draw a price.

Whales and Miners Send Coins to Exchanges

Large BTC holders have started moving units to Binance. Inflows had been quiet in the past months but have now increased. This shift in behavior has added to selling pressure.

Miners have also stepped up their exchange activity. Their transfers have risen in the fourth quarter, adding more supply to the market. Combined with whale activity, this has kept price action weak.

Despite the positive developments on a macro front, such as the US government reopening, BTC’s quite unfavorable price actions continued in the past 12 hours or so as the asset plunged to a new multi-month low.

The cryptocurrency stood above $107,000 just three days ago after Trump promised to send tariff checks of at least $2,000 to some Americans and hinted that the government shutdown might end soon. However, bitcoin failed to capitalize on this momentum and quickly dipped back to $103,000.

Nevertheless, it rebounded to $105,000 on Wednesday before the bears took complete control of the market, especially on Thursday. The POTUS signed legislation to reopen the government, which was first followed by an immediate bounce, but the landscape changed for the worse shortly after.

In less than a day, bitcoin dumped by more than eight grand and currently struggles below $97,000, which is the lowest it has been since early May.

Doctor Profit, who has been bearish on the asset for weeks, believes the worst is yet to come by predicting another nosedive to somewhere around $90,000 and $94,000.

The altcoins have followed suit with multiple double-digit price declines. AAVE, ENA, RENDER, SUI, PEPE, and LINK are also down by more than 12%. Even the largest of the bunch has plunged by over 11% and now struggles well below $3,200.

The total value of wrecked positions has skyrocketed to almost $1.1 billion on a daily basis. The single-largest liquidated position, according to CoinGlass, took place on HTX and was worth a whopping $44.29 million. The number of wrecked traders is above 240,000.

Naturally, longs represent the lion’s share, with $966 million. Short liquidations are worth $124 million as of press time.
