Bitcoin Oscillates Above Its $80,000 Bottom cryptonews
BTC
// Price

Reading time: 2 min

Published: Dec 02, 2025 at 22:37

Bitcoin's (BTC) price is declining after retesting the 21-day SMA barrier at $93,000.

BTC price long-term prediction: bearish

If this barrier were surpassed, the largest cryptocurrency would have returned to its psychological level of $100,000. Following the recent rejection, the BTC price has dropped sharply to its previous low.

As Coinidol.com reported previously, on November 21, Bitcoin fell to a low of $80,000, but buyers purchased the dips. Bitcoin has fallen again as it approaches the $80,000 support, as buyers failed to keep the price above the moving average lines.

On the downside, if the $80,000 support holds, Bitcoin will be confined to a range-bound movement above the current support and below the moving average lines. However, if the current support is breached, the BTC price will fall to $73,000. The current BTC price is $85,090.

Bitcoin price indicator analysis

The 21- and 50-day SMAs are sloping downwards, indicating a downturn. The price bars are below the moving average lines and are being repelled by the 21-day SMA barrier. Long candlestick tails indicate the $80,000 support level, showing strong buying pressure at this level. The moving average lines on the 4-hour chart are horizontal following the end of the downtrend above the $80,000 support level.

What is the next move for BTC?

Bitcoin has been moving sideways since the downtrend halted above the $80,000 support level. BTC is trading above the $80,000 support but below the $94,000 high.

Today, the Bitcoin price is rising after reaching a low of $84,000. The Doji candlesticks have appeared as Bitcoin continues to oscillate, awaiting the resolution of the trend.

Litecoin Price Jumps 10% as Vanguard Opens LTCC Access — How High Can LTC Go? cryptonews
LTC
Why Trust CoinGape

CoinGape has covered the cryptocurrency industry since 2017, aiming to provide informative insights to our readers. Our journal analysts bring years of experience in market analysis and blockchain technology to ensure factual accuracy and balanced reporting. By following our Editorial Policy, our writers verify every source, fact-check each story, rely on reputable sources, and attribute quotes and media correctly. We also follow a rigorous Review Methodology when evaluating exchanges and tools. From emerging blockchain projects and coin launches to industry events and technical developments, we cover all facets of the digital asset space with unwavering commitment to timely, relevant information.

Litecoin price analysis gains new urgency today as the asset records a sharp 10% rally during early trading. The relocation is consistent with a definite organizational arrangement that now dictates short-term orientation. Vanguard’s LTCC launch began this morning, and the new access channel increases attention on Litecoin exposure. 

The asset is also trading around a tightening formation that is now subject to structured review. This article examines the evolving Litecoin price structure and the influence of Vanguard’s LTCC access on upcoming expectations.

Litecoin Price Structure Near Breakout Zone
Litecoin price attempts a stronger rebound near the symmetrical triangle’s lower boundary today. The LTC value now trades at $82.94 after a clear reaction near $77.51. This area is defended by buyers as the candles squeeze towards the formation apex. 

Every downward trend is being met with faster reactions, and this change boosts the confidence of the active participants. The second target is close to $86.91 and a break above this will give a way to $125. The climb also faces the final resistance around  $101.93 that was previously rejected. 

Besides, RSI holds around 42 and signals room for continued strength and renewed drive. The falling guide now loses its grip as the price action starts to lean towards the upwards direction. This trend reflects the situation observed prior to a wider growth in the first half of this year. 

Meanwhile, the tightening formation reduces indecision around the current range. Therefore, the long-term Litecoin price performance improves as the asset forms a defined reaction point and approaches a possible breakout trigger.

Vanguard LTCC Launch Boosts Litecoin Interest
Vanguard now provides full access to the LTCC spot ETF, and the launch began this morning. Canary Capital is the issuer of the product and increases the exposure of investors who use Vanguard platforms. The incident attracts attention because Litecoin is rising out of the recent lows. 

Meanwhile, the timing supports the strengthening technical setup on the daily structure. Investors are now able to interact with LTCC without any delays or limited windows. The size of Vanguard gives it a broader coverage and makes Litecoin exposure more appealing. The listing is visible on the site and assures instant access to qualified clients. 

BREAKING: 11 trillion dollar investment management company vanguard has just listed $LTCC the Litecoin spot ETF by Canary capital.

— Litecoin Magazine ŁⓂ️🕸 (@LitecoinMag) December 2, 2025

The launch matches increased attention around Litecoin’s tightening structure. This arrangement is an indication of how institutional actors tend to respond swiftly to new entry points. Thus, Litecoin has a significant booster when Vanguard expands the scope of Canary Capital ETF on its network.

To conclude, Litecoin is currently at a decisive stage when the technical situation coincides with new institutional access. The LTCC launch strengthens interest across traditional channels and supports increased engagement. The structure also creates better upside indicators as Litecoin nears a potential breakout. With this alignment, LTC will be able to reach $125 by the end of the year.

Trump-Backed Bitcoin Miner ABTC Crashes Despite Bitcoin Rally cryptonews
BTC
American Bitcoin Corp. (ABTC), the U.S.-based bitcoin mining and treasury company founded by Eric Trump and Donald Trump Jr., saw its stock plunge by as much as 50% on Tuesday—even as bitcoin surged back above $91,000 and lifted most crypto-related equities. Nasdaq data showed trading volume exploding to 55 million shares, far above the average 3 million, signaling intense selling pressure and sparking widespread speculation across social media and crypto circles.

The sharp decline stood out because bitcoin had fully recovered from its brief 36-hour selloff, climbing near $92,000 and boosting nearly every major mining and blockchain-linked stock. Yet ABTC remained down around 40%, while Hut 8 (HUT)—which owns 80% of ABTC—fell 12%. Notably, HUT had nearly tripled in value over the prior six months thanks to miners shifting toward AI-focused infrastructure.

Much of the market chatter centered on possible insider selling, but SEC filings show most historical ABTC holders face a 180-day lockup that prevents sales until March 3, 2026. An additional 12-month Investors Rights Agreement imposes a standstill through September 3, 2026, impacting Eric Trump, Donald Trump Jr., and other major holders. These lockup timelines were widely circulated on X by the account RisenFit.

Addressing the volatility, Eric Trump posted on X that the sudden sell-off was tied to the unlocking of pre-merger private placement shares, allowing early investors to take profits for the first time. He emphasized ABTC’s strong fundamentals, citing Bitcoin mined at roughly 50% of spot price and a 56% gross margin in Q3, and reiterated his confidence by stating he is holding all of his shares.

ABTC, which went public via a reverse merger with Gryphon Digital in September 2025, had traded above $14 at its peak. Following Tuesday’s collapse, the stock is now hovering just above $2. The drop adds to a growing list of Trump-linked crypto setbacks, including World Liberty Financial’s WLFI token falling 70% from its peak and steep declines in TRUMP and MELANIA meme coins. Trump Media (DJT), which has accumulated a sizable bitcoin treasury, is also down around 75% year-to-date.

AAVE Price Jumps 14% as Market Rebounds and Mantle Expansion Fuels Bullish Momentum cryptonews
AAVE MNT
Aave’s native token AAVE surged 14% in the past 24 hours, climbing to $188 as the broader crypto market recovered from a sharp early-week sell-off. The move made AAVE one of the strongest performers among major DeFi assets, outperforming the CoinDesk 5 Index’s 8% rise during the same period and drawing increased attention from traders seeking high-momentum plays.

The rally accelerated after AAVE decisively broke above the key $175 level during U.S. trading hours. Trading volume spiked 295% above its hourly average, signaling strong participation from both retail and institutional traders. According to CoinDesk Research’s technical indicators, AAVE recorded an intraday range of $24.90, jumping from $164.28 and marking a 35.66% volume increase compared with its seven-day average.

Momentum indicators also pointed to a firmly bullish structure. AAVE established three consecutive higher lows before pushing above the $183.80 support zone and reaching a session high of $188.26. Repeated volume surges further reinforced positive sentiment and suggested that buyers remained in control throughout the session.

Adding to the upside pressure was Aave’s expansion to Mantle (MNT), an Ethereum layer-2 network closely linked to Bybit’s 70 million-user ecosystem. The integration aims to bring Aave’s decentralized lending markets to a broader global user base by leveraging Mantle’s low-cost infrastructure and direct connection to centralized exchange liquidity. Aave founder Stani Kulechov noted that the collaboration advances scalable, transparent on-chain finance for institutional users worldwide.

Key price levels suggest that AAVE now holds immediate support at $183.80, with resistance sitting at the psychological $190 mark. If bullish momentum continues, traders are eyeing an upside target of $190 with a possible extension toward $195. Downside risk remains limited as long as AAVE maintains support above $183.80.

This combination of technical strength, surging volume, and fundamental catalysts positions AAVE for continued attention from traders and investors as market conditions stabilize.

Here's How Many Shiba Inu (SHIB) Tokens Were Burned in November cryptonews
SHIB
The record day was November 26 when over a third of the monthly burns occurred.

The second-biggest meme coin has been nosediving in the past several months, and it seems like only the combination of multiple positive factors could fuel a revival.

The burning mechanism is one such element, with the SHIB team and community destroying millions of tokens last month.

The Exact Numbers
According to data from ShibaBurnTracker, November saw 248 burn transactions (8.27 per day), totaling roughly 163 million SHIB permanently sent to a null address. The record date was November 26, when over 60 million coins were removed from circulation.

While the figures might sound substantial, their USD equivalent is still negligible, which means that the price of the meme coin may need much more significant efforts in that field to head north.

The program was introduced in 2022, and since then, a total of 410.75 trillion tokens have been scorched, leaving 585.26 trillion coins in circulation.

SHIB Supply, Source: Shibburn.com
Another essential metric that may impact SHIB’s valuation is the asset’s exchange netflow. Earlier today, the amount of coins stored on centralized platforms dipped to around 81.2 trillion, representing the lowest level since the spring of 2021. This move suggests an exodus from exchanges to self-custody methods, which is considered bullish because it reduces the immediate selling pressure.

Price Predictions
Despite the slump in the past months, some analysts remain optimistic that a revival could be knocking on the door. X user $SHIB KNIGHT recently described the meme coin as one of “the strongest tokens” in the market.

“While others are slowing down, SHIB is showing real strength on every dip and pushing toward key levels. Don’t sleep on the ShibArmy momentum,” they added.

Two months ago, X user YourPOP also chipped in, forecasting that the self-proclaimed Dogecoin killer might skyrocket to a new all-time high before the end of 2025 and even urging his more than 250,000 followers to bookmark the post.

As of this writing, SHIB trades at around $0.000008032, down 90% from its ATH observed towards the end of 2021. And although the crypto space often surprises, a rally of this scale in the next four weeks seems quite unrealistic.

Chainlink: How THIS demand zone could send LINK past $13 cryptonews
LINK
Chainlink [LINK] recorded a fresh $2.65 million spot outflow, at press time, extending the persistent trend of exchange exits displayed on the inflow/outflow chart. 

This consistent pattern signals that traders continue removing tokens from exchanges, which usually indicates accumulation pressure rather than liquidation interest.

Besides, these outflows form near the same zone where price recently reacted, creating stronger alignment around demand. 

However, LINK must still show more follow-through before bulls tighten control. Market participants monitor whether shrinking supply accelerates buyer confidence as liquidity thins. 

Even so, deeper outflows help establish a foundation for potential recovery if buyers continue defending this region while avoiding aggressive inflows.

Taker Buy CVD dominance shows buyers absorbing supply
The Taker Buy CVD chart highlights steady buyer aggression, as buy-side takers consistently absorb sell orders across the 90-day window. 

This behavior strengthens confidence because buyers step in each time the price retests the demand boundary. 

Furthermore, the CVD trend aligns closely with the spot outflow footprint, reinforcing the narrative of accumulation. However, sellers still attempt to pressure the market during local pullbacks, though buyers respond quickly. 

Consequently, this resilience helps stabilize price action around the developing double-bottom structure.

If this dominance continues, LINK may gain enough momentum to approach the next liquidity cluster and challenge the overhead resistance level near $13.49.

Chainlink whale orders rise as ETF excitement builds
The Spot Average Order Size indicator reveals larger executed trades, signaling whale participation returning near the reaction zone. This aligns with repeated sharp buys observed after price dips into the highlighted demand area. 

Additionally, increased whale activity typically strengthens rebound potential because larger buyers often step in early during accumulation phases. 

However, strong confirmation still depends on sustained follow-through rather than isolated large orders. Even so, the presence of whales during sensitive levels increases the probability of stability. 

As Grayscale’s ETF launch approaches, whales appear to position early, creating a supportive backdrop for price as market anticipation intensifies.

Decoding LINK’s double-bottom pattern 
Chainlink continues forming the early stages of a potential double-bottom pattern, as the second reaction begins to develop near the same accumulation zone shown on the chart. 

This structure often signals trend exhaustion, and LINK shows signs of slowing bearish pressure. However, the second rebound still requires confirmation before traders target higher levels. 

The zone between $11.50 and $12.20 remains the primary defense, and market behavior strengthens when buyers continue absorbing liquidity around it. 

Furthermore, the demand zone aligns with whale activity and outflows, enhancing its importance. If LINK reacts strongly from here, the path toward $13.49 may open quickly.

Source: TradingView

ETF catalyst introduces a new bullish narrative
Grayscale’s upcoming conversion of its Chainlink trust into a spot ETF adds a significant catalyst at a sensitive market moment. 

This shift introduces new institutional exposure, and many traders anticipate heightened demand due to easier market access. 

Moreover, ETF approval tends to attract emotionally driven inflows from investors responding to sentiment rather than pure price levels. 

However, the ETF alone cannot sustain momentum without strong technical support beneath it, which the demand zone currently provides. 

Nevertheless, the catalyst strengthens bullish expectations and aligns with on-chain accumulation signals that already form around the developing double-bottom structure.

Is a rebound now in sight for Chainlink?
Chainlink shows several strengthening signals. Deepening outflows, dominant Taker Buy CVD, and rising whale order sizes all support early accumulation interest. 

The developing double-bottom at the demand zone also adds structure to the recovery setup. Additionally, the ETF catalyst brings fresh momentum to the market. These combined factors point toward a growing rebound possibility if buyers continue protecting this zone.

Final Thoughts

Chainlink’s deepening outflows, strong buyer aggression, and whale activity highlight growing accumulation pressure at key support.
With the ETF catalyst adding momentum, LINK appears poised for a rebound toward the $13.49 resistance if buyers hold firm.

When Will Bitcoin, Ethereum, And Dogecoin Go Into A Bear Market? cryptonews
BTC DOGE ETH
The prices of Ethereum and Dogecoin have followed a similar trajectory to the Bitcoin price crash as the pioneer digital asset continues to lead the crypto market lower. The muted action from Bitcoin has led to speculations that the market is finally headed into another bear trend after rising over the last few years. In this same vein, a crypto analyst has predicted when they believe that the bear market will really start, and that the current trend could still lead to an eventual pump in the market.

Why The Bitcoin, Ethereum, And Dogecoin Prices Could Still Pump
Crypto analyst ChainShinobi explained what is going on in the market, predicting that the trend could end up going against what investors are expecting at this time. According to the X post, while everyone is currently calling for lower prices, it could lead to another pump that culminates in the final top for the crypto market

ChainShinobi predicts what they refer to as “a face-melter”, the type of rally that no one sees coming and takes the likes of Bitcoin, Dogecoin, and Ethereum to possibly new all-time highs. However, instead of using this time to call for higher prices, the analyst believes that it is the best time for investors to actually get out of the market. This pump, which the analyst refers to as an exit window, could provide investors one final chance to actually get out of the market before another price crash.

This is “The moment to lock in massive profit while everyone else is busy blinding themselves with hopium and pushing their targets higher and higher… the same way they dragged their targets lower and lower right now,” the crypto analyst said.

The Same Wave Every Cycle
As for when the Dogecoin, Ethereum, and Dogecoin prices could move into the next bear market, the crypto analyst tells investors not to expect it until next year. More precisely, ChainShinobi believes that the bear market will fully begin by the end of the first quarter of 2025.

When the pump comes, the analyst warns that there could be an influx of bullish sentiment, with bullish news flooding the market. But it is during this time that the market is expected to turn. Essentially, the bear market is expected to begin when investors least expect it. “It’s pretty easy to see what’s coming. You don’t need to overdo TA or PA right now to see the path laid out,” the post read.

Bitcoin rebounds, but so what? Michael Burry says it's still ‘worth nothing' cryptonews
BTC
Michael Burry, the investor known for predicting the 2008 financial crisis, has renewed his criticism of Bitcoin, stating the cryptocurrency is “worth nothing.”

Summary

Michael Burry says Bitcoin is “worth nothing”
The investor, famous for predicting the 2008 financial crisis, renewed his criticism of the cryptocurrency as a speculative bubble lacking fundamental support.
Crypto markets remain volatile and sensitive to regulation and investor sentiment.

Burry claimed Bitcoin’s rise to six-figure price levels represents a speculative bubble not supported by quantifiable fundamentals. The investor noted on Michael Lewis’ podcast that widespread acceptance of Bitcoin’s elevated valuations demonstrates market behavior consistent with speculative activity.

Burry gained prominence for identifying structural vulnerabilities in the housing market that preceded the 2008 financial collapse, a prediction documented in Lewis’s book “The Big Short” and the subsequent film adaptation directed by Adam McKay.

Bitcoin has traded above $100,000 in recent months. Indeed, it enjoyed a significant increase from previous price levels and is up 6% for the day. Still, it’s down 18% for the last three months. See below.

Source: CoinGecko
Still, the cryptocurrency has attracted both institutional and retail investment despite ongoing debate about its intrinsic value.

Burry has maintained a critical stance toward Bitcoin for an extended period, questioning its valuation methodology and comparing its price movements to historical speculative manias.

The investor’s comments come as cryptocurrency markets continue to experience significant volatility, with Bitcoin prices fluctuating amid regulatory developments and shifting investor sentiment.

Is a bad situation about to get worse?
Burry’s problem isn’t just with Bitcoin. “I think that we are in a bad situation in the stock market. I think the stock market could be in for a number of bad years,” Burry told Lewis on the “Against the Rules” podcast.

Burry told Lewis that concentrated capital and inflated valuations have undermined price discovery, creating conditions for an unusually broad market crash.

He argued that the market’s passive structure would amplify the fallout, causing most assets to fall together and making it difficult “to be long anything and be safe.”

Hedera (HBAR) Jumps 10% as Canary Capital Launches First HBAR ETF on Vanguard cryptonews
HBAR
Hedera (HBAR) surged more than 10% in the past 24 hours, climbing above $0.14 as market sentiment improved and news broke that Canary Capital has introduced the first spot HBAR ETF on Vanguard’s platform. This development sparked strong investor interest, marking a major milestone for Hedera as it gains visibility within traditional finance.

The broader crypto market also rallied, rising over 7% during the same period. Bitcoin led the recovery after surpassing $90,000, driven by the U.S. Federal Reserve’s decision to halt quantitative tightening (QT). The policy shift eased liquidity pressure and boosted expectations of lower interest rates, encouraging greater demand for digital assets. Ethereum remained above $3,000, while major altcoins like Solana, Cardano, and XRP posted similar gains, reinforcing overall market optimism.

Hedera benefited significantly from this bullish environment. The launch of Canary Capital’s HBAR ETF allows investors to gain exposure to HBAR through standard brokerage accounts without interacting with crypto exchanges or digital wallets. As Hedera operates on a decentralized hashgraph-based network—using HBAR for transaction fees and staking—the ETF’s debut highlights increasing institutional interest and the growing push for regulated crypto investment products.

HBAR’s price rose to $0.14384, backed by strong technical indicators. The MACD displayed a bullish crossover, with the blue MACD line moving above the signal line and green histograms forming, suggesting strengthening upward momentum. If buying pressure continues, HBAR could advance toward $0.15 or even $0.17. However, if bearish sentiment emerges, the price may retrace to around $0.13, a key support level.

As institutional adoption accelerates and market confidence returns, Hedera’s outlook remains promising, positioning HBAR for potential further gains.

Bitcoin nears $93K again as short-liquidation clusters build — is a squeeze coming? cryptonews
BTC
Journalist

Posted: December 3, 2025

Bitcoin is pushing toward the $93K region for the second time in less than a week, and new derivatives data suggests the market may be entering a high-volatility phase. 

A fresh reading from Glassnode’s liquidation heatmap shows large short-liquidation clusters forming between $92.5K and $94K, hinting at a potential squeeze if price continues higher.

The cluster buildup is significant because price was sharply rejected at this same level last week. The return to the zone signals that traders are increasingly positioning against the move. 

Source: Glassnode

This creates conditions where any sustained uptick could trigger a cascade of short liquidations.

Short-liquidation pockets act as “fuel” during upside moves. When price enters these zones, over-leveraged traders are forced to buy back Bitcoin. This accelerates momentum without requiring new organic demand. 

This dynamic has driven several of Bitcoin’s most aggressive moves in previous cycles.

Bitcoin technical conditions now support the move
A complementary view from the daily Bollinger Bands chart reinforces this setup. BTC has reclaimed the 20-day SMA at around $90.5K, a level it has struggled to close above during the past two weeks.

Breaking through this midline typically signals a short-term trend reversal.

Volatility is also expanding, with the bands widening after several days of compression.

This setup usually precedes large directional moves, and with the upper band sitting near $97.9K, Bitcoin has room to push higher if the squeeze accelerates. 

Source: TradingView

Today’s strong bullish candle, which engulfed the previous multi-day range, adds momentum to the upside case.

The rebound from the lower Bollinger Band around $83K last week was equally notable.

Buyers absorbed the sell-off quickly, a move that aligned with the heatmap’s lower-level long-liquidation pockets. That reaction set the stage for the current push back toward the $90K–93K region.

The critical zone: $92K–$94K
The overlap between high-density short-liquidation clusters, rising volatility, and a reclaim of key technical levels creates a point of confluence that traders often watch closely. 

If BTC breaks decisively above $93K, a rapid move higher becomes increasingly likely as forced buyers enter the market.

However, this same region rejected BTC decisively just a few days ago. Another rejection here would indicate that sellers still view this level as a cycle-defining resistance zone.

Final Thoughts

A break above $93K could unleash a short-squeeze toward the upper Bollinger Band.
Failure at this level would reinforce it as a strong resistance zone heading into mid-December.

Strategy CEO Says Bitcoin Sales Unlikely Before 2029 as Firm Builds $1.44B Dividend Buffer cryptonews
BTC
Strategy CEO Phong Lee says the company is unlikely to sell its Bitcoin holdings before 2029, pointing to a newly established $1.44 billion cash reserve designed to support dividend payments during market downturns. According to Lee, the reserve minimizes the risk of needing to liquidate Bitcoin, allowing the firm to separate short-term dividend obligations from its long-term BTC strategy.

Lee noted that the reserve currently covers about 21 months of dividend payments, with a target of more than two years of U.S.-dollar coverage. He emphasized that Strategy views Bitcoin as a long-term asset and not something to be traded based on market cycles. Much of investor focus, he added, has shifted toward market net asset value (mNAV), which compares the company’s equity valuation with the value of its Bitcoin holdings. Issuing new common equity becomes unattractive if mNAV falls below 1x, Lee explained, because doing so would no longer be accretive to shareholders.

The reserve is intended to prevent the company from having to choose between maintaining dividends and protecting Bitcoin reserves. Lee reiterated that Strategy has no interest in selling BTC or issuing equity below 1x mNAV. However, he outlined a scenario that could force a sale: a prolonged Bitcoin downturn lasting roughly three years, combined with mNAV trading below 1x for the same period. If that happened, he said, a Bitcoin sale might become necessary, with the earliest potential timing around 2029.

Lee also discussed Strategy’s Bitcoin acquisition approach, stressing that the firm buys BTC with excess capital rather than timing the market. The company expects preferred shares to play a larger role in future fundraising, describing them as more credit-like than common equity. He noted that markets may take 18 to 36 months to fully adjust to the product, similar to earlier phases of Strategy’s Bitcoin strategy.

According to Lee, the expanding dollar reserve provides the firm with flexibility to continue paying dividends without compromising its long-term Bitcoin position.

Pepe Price Rebounds as Market Strengthens: Can a 50% Rally Follow? cryptonews
PEPE
Pepe coin price gained more than 14% today as the broader crypto market staged a strong recovery, improving liquidity across major altcoins. This rebound emerged after a key demand zone once again halted last week’s decline, restoring confidence among buyers and setting the stage for a potential continuation of upward momentum.

On the 4-hour chart, Pepe shows a decisive bounce from a long-established support region that has triggered several recoveries in recent cycles. At the time of writing, PEPE trades around $0.00000460, holding firmly above the critical $0.00000451 level as buyers continue to absorb supply. The pair recently formed a clean double-bottom pattern, a bullish technical structure that often precedes extended upward trends when demand remains strong.

The next key reaction point lies near $0.00000479, which now serves as a checkpoint for bulls. A breakout above this level could open additional room for price expansion and increase the probability of a sustained rally. Many analysts suggest that the refreshed chart structure supports discussions around a potential 50% move if momentum continues to build.

Indicators also support the improving outlook. The RSI has climbed back to 40, rising steadily from oversold territory, signaling strengthening demand after last week’s decline. Meanwhile, narrowing Bollinger Bands reflect a period of consolidation often seen before stronger directional moves. With price positioned near the mid-band, conditions appear favorable for continued recovery.

A broader market surge further amplified Pepe’s rebound. Bitcoin jumped over 8%, Ethereum more than 10%, Solana 13%, and XRP nearly 9%, enhancing sentiment across risk assets. Open interest in Pepe futures rose 14% to $236 million, highlighting increased trader participation and deeper market engagement—both factors that often support price stability and stronger reactions at key levels.

With technical strength returning, market conditions improving, and participation rising, Pepe coin maintains a realistic pathway toward an extended rally, potentially reaching the widely discussed 50% upside target.

Is Bitcoin Near a Bottom? Early Indicators Point to Yes (Bitfinex Alpha) cryptonews
BTC
Bitfinex Alpha reveals that selling pressure has reduced, and BTC is close to its lowest point in this cycle.

The recent market downtrend has left many bitcoin investors and market enthusiasts in confusion. This is because predictors and a few factors point to a further downtrend, while some claim that the world’s leading crypto sits at a powerful support zone.

Obviously, BTC witnessed a significant price recovery last week, jumping by about 15% to surpass $93,000. However, this move was short-lived, as it plunged by $84,000 on Monday amid heavy selling by many holders, setting the new week off to a rough start.

Deleveraging and Capitulation
Considering factors such as capitulation, deleveraging, and seller exhaustion, the latest Bitfinex Alpha release suggests bitcoin is very close to a bottom, marking its lowest point of this cycle before recovering to hit new highs.

One factor hinting at a bottom is extreme deleveraging. Undoubtedly, thousands of speculators and leverage traders have been forcibly thrown out of the market, starting with the October 10 crash that resulted in over $19 billion in liquidations.

After this flush of risky traders, the crypto market is expected to become more stable and healthier for investors and long-term holders. This also aligns with a recent prediction from Fundstrats’ Tom Lee, who noted that once the market has completed this flushing, it could hit new highs.

In addition to extreme deleveraging, short-term holder capitulation is another factor hinting at a bitcoin bottom. Many retail traders, weekend FOMO buyers, and new and nervous investors have reacted emotionally to the market dip, panic-selling their holdings in shock.

Hence, Entity-Adjusted Realised Losses have reached a peak of over $400 million, surpassing losses during previous major market lows. This rate of losses suggests that capitulation is nearing an end, and once selling pressure is no longer there, the bitcoin price stabilizes.

Seller Exhaustion
A close look at bitcoin’s price chart over the past few days hints at seller exhaustion, as it is filled with many small candlesticks, suggesting that panic and fear have almost burned out, and selling pressure has reduced. Thus, the conclusion that bitcoin is near a bottom.

Meanwhile, some institutional investors have not let the downtrend blur their bullish expectations. This is evident in the massive four-day inflow streak on the U.S.-listed Bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs).

Litecoin Price Outlook Strengthens as Vanguard's LTCC Launch Ignites Investor Interest cryptonews
LTC
Litecoin price analysis has taken on renewed urgency today after LTC surged nearly 10% in early trading, signaling a notable shift in short-term market sentiment. This momentum aligns with a tightening technical structure that continues to guide trader expectations. Adding to the excitement, Vanguard officially launched access to the LTCC spot ETF this morning, giving investors a new channel to gain Litecoin exposure and increasing attention on LTC’s developing market setup.

LTC is currently trading around $82.94, rebounding strongly from support near $77.51—a zone buyers continue to defend as price action moves closer to the apex of a symmetrical triangle. Each downside attempt is being met with faster bullish reactions, reinforcing confidence among active market participants. If Litecoin breaks above $86.91, analysts expect a potential push toward $101.93, with room to reach $125 if momentum continues. RSI at 42 also suggests there is space for upward expansion, reflecting conditions seen before Litecoin’s broader rally earlier this year.

The technical tightening reduces market indecision and provides a clearer reaction point for traders monitoring a potential breakout. As this structure sharpens, long-term sentiment improves, positioning LTC for stronger performance if bullish catalysts persist.

A major catalyst arrived today as Vanguard enabled full access to the LTCC ETF, issued by Canary Capital. The availability of this spot ETF on one of the world’s largest investment platforms significantly boosts Litecoin’s visibility among traditional investors. The timing aligns with LTC’s strengthening chart pattern, providing institutional participants with immediate exposure during a period of renewed upward pressure. Vanguard’s scale and accessibility amplify interest, enhancing Litecoin’s appeal as it approaches a decisive technical zone.

With institutional access expanding and the chart signaling a breakout, Litecoin shows increased potential to target $125 by year-end, supported by growing market engagement and improving structural indicators.

Bitcoin Equities Jump as Strategy ($MSTR) Leads Sector Rebound cryptonews
BTC
Bitcoin-linked stocks surged on Tuesday as the broader crypto market staged a sharp recovery and Bitcoin reclaimed the $91,000 level. 

Strategy was the standout mover, rising faster than both Bitcoin itself and most major tech names at times. MSTR shares climbed 8.66% at times to $186.26, lifted by heavy trading volume that exceeded 4.4 million shares.

MSTR is currently trading at $182.74.

The move slightly outpaced Bitcoin’s rebound to $91,000 and signaled renewed appetite for high-beta exposure to the digital asset through equities. 

Other crypto-adjacent stocks also advanced, including the iShares Bitcoin Trust ETF, which gained more than 7%, and smaller firms such as Smarter Web Company and Metaplanet Inc., which posted mid–single-digit gains. 

Capital B saw the largest percentage move of the group, trading more than 10% higher at times today.

The surge in Bitcoin equities came as institutional demand accelerated across the market. Trading desks reported strong flows into Bitcoin ETFs, a trend that has intensified as major Wall Street firms open the door to regulated crypto products.

Strategy won’t sell its Bitcoin  Strategy’s rally also followed new comments from CEO Phong Le, who spoke with Bloomberg about the company’s balance sheet strategy and long-term commitment to Bitcoin.

Le reiterated that Strategy has no plans to sell Bitcoin except as a last resort and said the company remains firmly committed to paying dividends on its preferred shares. 

He argued that maintaining the dividend helps prevent uncertainty from spreading through the company’s capital structure, adding that the goal is to pay it “in perpetuity,” even though the board retains the ability to pause payments.

Le addressed concerns about leverage, pushing back on the idea that the company is overextended. He said Strategy’s leverage ratio stands at roughly 12%, or 27% when preferred shares are included — far below levels seen in typical U.S. corporations. 

The company recently raised $1.44 billion in equity in just over a week, enough to cover nearly two years of dividend obligations. 

Le said Strategy also now holds multiple years of dividend capacity in its Bitcoin reserves, reducing the risk that it would need to liquidate holdings during market stress.

The company is building a cash reserve designed to cover two to three years of dividend payments, a buffer Le expects to maintain for at least the next five to ten years. 

He again rejected the view that Strategy should be treated like a closed-end fund or ETF, arguing that the firm is a fully operational Bitcoin-focused company with employees, products and revenue, not a passive investment vehicle. 

He said the company has begun educating MSCI and other index providers on the distinction as they review whether digital-asset treasury companies should remain in major indices.

Strategy might start lending Bitcoin Le also said MicroStrategy is evaluating opportunities to participate in Bitcoin lending once large U.S. banks fully enter the space. 

Discussions are already taking place with institutions preparing to offer custody and lending services. He emphasized that traditional banks bring the kind of scale and balance-sheet strength MicroStrategy wants in potential partners.

Bitcoin’s own rebound was decisive. The asset traded near $91,100 late Tuesday, rising 8% in 24 hours as volume approached $78 billion, one of the strongest sessions in weeks. 

The move lifted Bitcoin above its seven-day high and kept it comfortably above last week’s low near $84,000. 

The bounce came just as several major financial institutions made their most aggressive moves yet into Bitcoin investment products.

Bank of America announced that its 15,000 wealth advisers will be permitted to recommend crypto exposure for the first time. Beginning January 5, the bank will support allocations of 1% to 4% through a select group of Bitcoin ETFs, ending years of internal restrictions. 

In a separate reversal, Vanguard opened its platform to Bitcoin ETFs and crypto-linked mutual funds for the first time. 

The decision gives more than 50 million brokerage clients access to regulated Bitcoin exposure, marking a major shift for a firm that previously dismissed Bitcoin as too speculative for long-term investors.

Cardano's ADA Eyes Fresh Target After 15% Rally as On-Chain Activity Shows Real Momentum cryptonews
ADA
Cardano (ADA) trades around $0.43 after a 15% bump, but bullish signals hint at a potential surge toward $0.50, showing renewed investor confidence, says analyst Paul Bennett.

Source: Paul Bennett
On-chain data shows Cardano gaining real momentum, entailing rising transaction volumes, growing smart contract activity, and increasing wallet engagement, all of which point to sustained accumulation.

Unlike hype-driven spikes, this surge is backed by genuine network usage, signaling a stronger, more sustainable growth trend.

Notably, derivatives markets are turning bullish, with ADA options and futures seeing rising open interest and a clear tilt toward long positions. This reflects growing confidence among both institutional and retail investors, often signaling potential upside in the spot market before broader adoption catches on.

Therefore, Bennett notes that while ADA hovers around $0.43, the real story lies beneath the surface. On-chain activity and market signals point to a strategic build-up, priming ADA for a potential surge to $0.50, a milestone likely to draw renewed attention from the broader crypto community.

Rizzmas is Back? Christmas Solana Meme Coin Wakes From Hibernation cryptonews
RIZZMAS
In brief
Solana meme coin Rizzmas has surged over the past 24 hours.
The most recent surge comes a year after the token hit a whopping $94.26 million market cap, during 2024's festive meme coin bull run.
The Rizzmas team says that it has big plans for December, including New York City billboards, to attempt to break last year's high.
Christmas is approaching, and Solana meme coin traders are getting into the festive spirit—with the Pump.fun-created token Rizzmas surging 54% to a market cap of $4.38 million on Tuesday, before pulling back slightly.

Rizzmas soared to a $94.26 million market cap in late November last year, before crashing 98% to $1.76 million by the new year. It then lay mostly dormant throughout 2025, hitting a low of $602,150 in March. Since then, it has soared more than 600% to a market cap of $4.38 million, according to DEX Screener, before retracing 12% to $3.82 million. In fact, the meme coin weirdly hit a local high market cap of $11.15 million in August.

Throughout this period, the Rizzmas meme coin community takeover, or CTO, team has been grinding away in the hopes of making the token reach “its full potential.” The team has rolled out an iOS mini-game app, which the team said uses ad revenue to burn Rizzmas tokens, released merchandise, and has started to create Christmas-themed content. And this is just the start, the team told Decrypt.

“We planned and are planning a LOT of things for our biggest month,” Naka Kash, Rizzmas CTO core team, told Decrypt. “NYC billboards, collabs with big names, Rizzmas lottery, CoinMarketCap boosts, new burning mechanisms powered by the community, huge real-life marketing campaigns, and more.”

Rizzmas is just one of countless seasonal or event-driven meme coins that surge in popularity throughout the year. Oftentimes, the event is darker than Christmas celebrations, with meme coins surging when a celebrity dies or when the anniversary of the 9/11 terrorist attack approaches. Usually, the success of these tokens is temporary as hype and attention quickly wanes once the event has passed.

However, the team behind Rizzmas has attempted to move beyond this fate by evolving the meme to mean rizz more, Kash explained. That’s because rizz is short for charisma and Gen Z slang for flirting with someone, while mas is the Spanish translation for more—thus making the meme flirt more.

That said, at its core Rizzmas is a festive meme. Last year, it found itself leading a surge for Christmas-themed meme coins right in the middle of meme coin season. 

At the time, its token launchpad Pump.fun peaked by deploying 42,000 tokens every day, had a daily revenue of almost $5 million, and processed $3.1 billion in weekly volume. These figures have dropped significantly. Now, Pump.fun creates just 21,800 a day, attracts $750,000 in daily revenue, and $568.3 million in weekly volume, according to Dune data.

“We understand that the trenches and the market as a whole are not the same as they were last year,” Kash told Decrypt. “But we take on the challenge, we believe in what we’ve built, we aim to be the gold standard for Solana, and show that in this space of scams and rugs, there are legitimate projects too. We will continue to build and grow Rizzmas regardless of the market conditions.”

Why Trump-Backed Mining Company Struggles Despite Bitcoin's Recovery cryptonews
BTC
Shares of American Bitcoin Corp., the mining company tied to the family of US President Donald Trump, experienced a sharp decline on Tuesday, despite a broader recovery in the cryptocurrency market. 

The company faces continued challenges following a significant decrease in stock value over recent months.

American Bitcoin Corp. Faces LossesAs crypto markets rejoiced amid Bitcoin’s recent price recovery, American Bitcoin Corp. continued to see its shares slide. 

Google Finance reports that the Bitcoin mining company’s stock has dropped 37% in the last 24 hours, priced at $2.22 at the time of writing. Over the past six months, this decline has reached almost 60%.

American Bitcoin Corp. stock performance. Source: Google Finance.The mining venture’s poor performance recently isn’t good news for the Trump family. The creation of American Bitcoin Corp. occurred a couple of months after Trump assumed office, as a spin-off from Hut 8 Corp.

Under the arrangement, Hut 8 supplied the majority of the mining infrastructure and retained an 80% stake in the project. At the same time, American Bitcoin Corp. became the platform through which Trump’s sons, Eric and Donald Trump Jr., control approximately 20%.

As a result, the mining company’s poor stock performance is directly tied to its profitability, affecting the Trump family’s financial interests.

What is striking about today’s events is that, despite Bitcoin’s price rebound, the company’s shares saw the opposite effect, continuing their decline.

Bitcoin’s Struggles Continue Despite Price RecoveryBitcoin’s price has performed poorly over the past two months. Since peaking at $126,000 in October, its price has sharply declined. Less than two weeks ago, it fell to $82,800, the lowest since April.

Bitcoin regained its $90,000 level on Tuesday, improving market sentiment. However, this shift wasn’t enough to lift the stock price of Bitcoin-based companies like American Bitcoin Corp.

The inverted reaction suggests that a short-term price recovery alone may not suffice to improve the company’s performance. Given the broader context of the crypto industry, this conclusion is not surprising.

The uncertainty is compounded by MicroStrategy’s potential decision to sell its Bitcoin holdings if its stock remains below the value of its Bitcoin reserves. This could erode confidence in the asset.

Ethereum has underperformed more than Bitcoin, further indicating market weaknesses.

Key economic factors also fuel the volatility. The Federal Reserve’s stance on interest rates and the Bank of Japan’s monetary policy have particularly added further uncertainty.

Pepe Coin Jumps 14% on Double Bottom Signal Amid Market Recovery — Is a 50% Rally in Sight? cryptonews
PEPE

Pepe coin price gained 14% today as the market recovered and liquidity improved across several altcoins. The rebound formed after a sharp demand-zone reaction that stopped last week’s decline. 

Meanwhile, Pepe price trades near a level that shaped several key reversals in recent weeks. Volatility is also contained on larger timeframes and this makes assessment a clean landscape. These conditions now support a structured assessment of whether the rebound can extend further.

Pepe Coin Price Strengthens After Support Rebound
The 4-hour chart indicates a powerful response of a clear support zone that initiated recurrent recoveries in the previous cycles. At press time, Pepe value is currently trading at $0.00000451 and is solidly above this mark as the supply is still being absorbed by buyers. 

Two clean touches formed a double-bottom formation and this trend helps to sustain a long upward movement provided that buyers are in control. 

The second reaction point is at $0.00000479 and is the current checkpoint of this recovery stage. An upward move would create additional space to proceed and would create greater emphasis on upward goals. 

Ultimately, Pepe coin price now displays a refreshed chart structure that favors upward exploration and aligns with the growing discussion around a possible 50% rally from this region as strength continues to build.

PEPE/USDT 4-Hour Chart (Source: TradingView)
Do Current Indicators Support Sustained Improvement?
The RSI indicates 40 and it rises consistently out of oversold ground, which is indicative of long-term strength following the previous fall in the week before. The rising slope shows healthier demand and reinforces the improving character of this rebound. 

The trend is now supported by the reading as the buyers retain their control over short-term movement and persist in creating pressure on higher zones.

The Bollinger Bands are still narrowing and this squeeze indicates the stable movement over the recent candles. Tight bands can be seen in advance of stronger directional changes and assist in forming a purer analysis structure. 

Pepe price is located in the mid-region and this location facilitates a positive recovery period. Such climate reinforces the debate of a bigger extension and gives a balanced argument of a possible 50% rally as the market conditions continue to pick up, supporting a positive long-term Pepe price forecast.

PEPE Technical Indicators Chart (Source: TradingView)
Wider Market Recovery Boosts Open Interest Strength.
The overall crypto market recovered today as Bitcoin gained 8.12%, Ethereum added 10.04%, XRP climbed 9.03%, and Solana rallied 13.23% in a synchronized advance. This movement enhanced the mood in various categories and also boosted the top meme coins that react rapidly to general liquidity shifts. 

Pepe coin price aligned with this movement and retained strength after the demand-zone rebound. The enhanced environment is now in favor of a systematic assessment of possible continuation.

Meanwhile, the open interest surged 14% to $236 million and showed firm engagement across major derivatives markets. This increase fortifies depth and assists in forming cleaner conduct on shorter periods. The added involvement also minimizes the instability and contributes to the enhanced responses at the critical levels.

Pepe price benefits from these conditions because buyers gain better positioning during extension attempts. The open interest trend reflects strong underlying participation and adds weight to discussions around a 50% rally from current levels.

PEPE Open Interest Chart (Source: CoinGlass)
To sum up, Pepe coin price shows clear strength after defending a key support zone. This progress is now supported by market recovery and improved Open Interest. Signs of an improving situation are confirmed, and the framework allows further upward assessment. With momentum building across major assets, Pepe coin price holds a realistic path toward the 50% rally.

XRP And RLUSD Global Glow-Up Continues As Ripple Secures Key Approval To Expand Payment Activities In Singapore cryptonews
RLUSD XRP
Ripple has received approval from Singapore’s central bank to expand the scope of its payment activities in the region under its Major Payment Institution license held by its Singapore subsidiary, Ripple Markets APAC.

Ripple Secures Major Regulatory Victory In Singapore
According to a Monday announcement, the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) greenlighted an expanded scope for Ripple’s Major Payment Institution (MPI) license, a high-level license held by only a few crypto firms worldwide.

This expansion allows the blockchain payments firm to widen the reach of its regulated cross-border payments offerings in one of its key global hubs, including via the XRP cryptocurrency and Ripple’s own dollar-pegged stablecoin, RLUSD.

Ripple Payments’ system utilizes RLUSD and XRP for international transactions. The service was designed to serve as an on-ramp and off-ramp supporting collection, holding, swapping, and payouts for banks and fintechs.

Monica Long, Ripple’s President, said in a statement that the company deeply values “Singapore’s forward-thinking approach,” and the “expanded license strengthens our ability to continue investing in Singapore and to build the infrastructure financial institutions need to move money efficiently, quickly, and safely.”

Asia Pacific Pivotal To Ripple’s Global Business
As Ripple notes, Singapore has one of the most advanced digital-asset regulators in the world. 

Ripple has been operating in the region since 2017. The San Francisco-based firm was approved for its MPI license in 2023, which permitted it to provide regulated digital payment services in Singapore. This came even when Ripple was embroiled in a high-profile lawsuit back home with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).

With this expanded scope of payment activities in Singapore, Ripple can now fortify its foothold in the Asia-Pacific region, which is poised to become the fastest-growing digital-asset market. 

According to Ripple’s Vice President and Managing Director in the Asia Pacific, Fiona Murray, the region has been experiencing massive growth, with on-chain activity up a staggering 70% year-over-year, and Singapore sitting “at the center of that growth.”

XRP and Solana Jump as 2x Leveraged ETFs Hit the Market cryptonews
SOL XRP
SOL and XRP see rising demand as 2X leveraged ETFs launch, boosting inflows and reinforcing long-term strength across both markets.

Izabela Anna2 min read

2 December 2025, 09:35 PM

New 2x ETFs Strengthen Market AccessXRP and Solana advanced today as traders reacted to the launch of two new leveraged ETFs offering amplified exposure to both tokens. The rollout signals growing interest in crypto-linked exchange-traded products as investor demand shifts toward vehicles that provide simple access to digital-asset momentum. 

Besides attracting speculative traders, the products reveal how traditional markets are rapidly integrating leveraged crypto strategies. Consequently, analysts noted fresh capital rotating into XRP and Solana investment products as both assets continued to post notable inflows across the sector.

According to the press release, T-REX introduced the T-REX 2X Long SOL Daily Target ETF (SOLX) and the T-REX 2X Long XRP Daily Target ETF (XRPK). Both funds offer 200% daily exposure through derivatives rather than spot holdings. 

Greg King said the company wants investors to capture short-term swings through familiar brokerage platforms. Moreover, Matt Tuttle stated, “These ETFs demonstrate the continued pace of innovation at T-REX.” He added that the firm now gives traders more ways to act on their market conviction.

Moreover, the launch widens a suite of more than 35 T-REX single-stock leveraged and inverse ETFs. The category continues to expand as traders look for ways to amplify directional views without direct asset custody. Hence, the arrival of SOLX and XRPK comes during a period of rising interest in crypto-focused ETFs across global markets.

XRP and Solana Inflows Strengthen as Prices ReactInvestment products tied to XRP and Solana recorded strong inflows last week. According to CoinShares data, $289 million moved into XRP products and $4.4 million into Solana vehicles. Year-to-date totals reached $3.4 billion for Solana and $2.9 billion for XRP. 

Additionally, demand surged after recent spot ETF launches. Canary Capital’s spot XRP ETF generated $58 million in first-day trading volume and outperformed several earlier crypto ETF debuts.

As of press time, XRP traded around $2.16 after rising more than 7% over the past day. However, it remains slightly lower over the week. Market data showed a 24-hour volume above $4.5 billion and a market cap near $130 billion.

CryptoBull, an analyst, noted that XRP has held its 2018 bull-market monthly highest close for 12 straight months. Hence, analysts do not view the current structure as a cycle peak. They expect a real top to appear with a wide monthly candle and heavy volume. Additionally, the asset continues to defend the $1.80 to $2.00 zone, which signals long-term strength.

ConclusionThe introduction of leveraged ETFs on XRP and Solana arrives at a moment of rising investor activity and renewed confidence. Moreover, XRP continues to maintain a critical support area, suggesting the broader trend remains intact as traders prepare for the next major monthly expansion.

The launch of several spot XRP ETFs has opened a new chapter in the market, and it is already stirring debate about how supply and demand may shift over time.

Some analysts say the industry is only beginning to grasp how institutional inflows could reshape XRP’s structure, especially if momentum builds at the pace seen in other major assets.

This discussion has intensified since the approval of Bitcoin ETFs, which have created a direct bridge for traditional investors seeking exposure without the responsibility of custody.

That moment marked a turning point for regulated crypto products, and institutions have steadily expanded their participation ever since.

Attention is now turning toward XRP. With new spot funds entering the market, analysts say the asset may be poised for similar traction.

Early inflow numbers suggest interest is stronger than many anticipated, and some observers believe this trend could accelerate as investors look for diversification beyond Bitcoin.

The Long-Term Roadmap to a 100x Scenario
Market analyst Chad Steingraber shared a detailed model outlining what could happen if XRP ETFs experience strong daily inflows.

He explained that his projection uses an average estimate of about $90 million entering each fund every day, a level he believes could reshape the market far faster than many expect.

Then, stronger institutional participation could add a second wave of demand. Finally, long-term global settlement use cases could provide the foundation for sustained valuation growth.

He acknowledged that markets rarely move through such phases cleanly and that many variables must align for such an outcome. His calculations point to a scenario where sustained ETF buying could drive XRP toward a 100x increase.

He estimated a long-term target near $220 per token and emphasized that this projection is based on the strength of regulated institutional demand. He also noted that normal market activity could accelerate the move further during periods of higher liquidity.

Steingraber cautioned that sustained demand at this level could start to stretch the available public supply. He explained that if ETFs continue accumulating at the same pace, they could absorb most of the circulating float in less than a year.

However, he also noted that this scenario assumes prices remain relatively stable, which he described as “unlikely” under such intense pressure.

According to his model, sharp price increases would be the most natural response as supply dries up and investors compete for fewer available tokens.

What Should Investors Watch Next?
For now, the focus remains on several key indicators: exchange reserves, liquidity inflows, institutional activity, and how the price behaves at significant levels of resistance. These factors may offer the earliest clues about whether an actual supply shock is materializing.

While no one can guarantee the dramatic outcome the analyst described, the data he highlighted has sparked a fresh wave of discussion.

The coming new year may reveal whether XRP is indeed setting the stage for a structural shift that could redefine its place in the market.

ETH briefly touches $3K but traders remain skeptical: Here's why cryptonews
ETH
Key takeaways:

The ETH futures premium and the put options skew indicate that traders are hedging aggressively despite an 8% price rebound.

Ethereum’s weekly fees slid 49% amid weakened DEX activity, while Tron and Solana fees rose 9%.

Ether (ETH) gained 8% on Tuesday but stalled near $3,000 as derivatives markets signaled doubt about further upside. The move tracked the broader cryptocurrency rally as traders priced in better odds of new economic stimulus, especially after stress in Japan’s government-bond market on Monday.

ETH/USD (left) vs. Total crypto capitalization/USD (right). Source: TradingView / CointelegraphSentiment improved as investors grew more confident that US monetary policy would turn less restrictive. The Federal Reserve (Fed) ended its balance-sheet reduction program on Dec. 1, and traders expect an interest-rate cut on Dec. 10. More importantly, major financial institutions in the US have sharply increased their use of repurchase agreements, adding liquidity to short-term funding markets.

The tech-heavy Nasdaq index has recovered most of the losses it incurred in November and now trades only about 3% below its all-time high. Still, ETH derivatives positioning remains tight, suggesting limited conviction among bullish traders.

ETH two-month futures basis rate. Source: laevitas.chOn Tuesday, the annualized premium on ETH monthly futures versus spot markets held at 3%, unchanged from the prior week. Readings below 5% point to very weak demand for leveraged long exposure, an understandable outcome given Ether’s 22% drop over the past 30 days.

Ether lags stocks as global policy turns expansionaryEther’s underperformance relative to the US stock market raises concerns, especially as central banks signal more expansionist economic measures. 

The Fed injected $13.5 billion through overnight funding on Dec. 1, the second-highest level in more than five years. Designed as a liquidity backstop, this facility once held over $2.5 trillion in spare cash in 2022, following stimulus efforts and extremely low interest rates. However, those balances were later withdrawn as participants sought higher returns elsewhere.

Additional factors may be weighing on crypto demand, including fears of excessive investment in artificial-intelligence infrastructure and renewed regulatory pressure on stablecoins. China’s central bank also pledged to increase its crackdown on money-laundering activities and unauthorized cross-border transfers involving digital assets.

Professional Ether traders remain uneasy about downside risks, a view reflected in persistent stress across options markets.

Source: laevitas.chETH put (sell) options traded at a 6% premium to comparable call (buy) contracts, a pattern usually associated with bearish conditions. For reference, the skew metric was at a neutral 4% on Friday. This shift suggests something is still restraining traders’ optimism, even as the rally in US equities signals improving risk appetite across traditional markets.

Ethereum weekly network fees(left) vs. DEX volumes (right), USD. Source: DefiLlamaEthereum network fees dropped to their lowest level in more than three years, falling to $2.6 million over a seven-day period, down from $5.1 million four weeks prior. Part of this decline reflects a decrease in activity on decentralized exchanges, where volumes dropped to $13.4 billion in the same period after reaching a peak of $36.2 billion in August.

Top blockchains ranked by 7-day network fees, USD. Source: NansenMore concerningly, rival chains Tron and Solana posted a 9% increase in seven-day fees, according to Nansen data. A dormant Ether whale movement on Sunday added to investor anxiety. An entity active since Ethereum’s genesis block in 2015 transferred 40,000 ETH to a new address, sparking speculation about a potential sale.

Ethereum’s Fusaka upgrade, scheduled for Wednesday, is an important step toward better scalability and an improved wallet-management experience. Still, demand for decentralized applications has weakened, resulting in lower fees. Currently, there is limited evidence that ETH is positioned to outperform the broader cryptocurrency market.

Bitcoin Long-Term Holders See First Uptick Since April Lows: Bullish Sign? cryptonews
BTC
On-chain data shows that the Bitcoin investors with a holding time greater than six months have seen an upward reversal in their supply for the first time in months.

Bitcoin Long-Term Holder Supply Has Just Turned Around
As pointed out by Capriole Investments founder Charles Edwards in a new post on X, the 6-month inactive supply has recently witnessed its first uptick since April. This part of the supply, covering tokens that have been dormant (that is, not involved in any transaction on the blockchain) since at least six months ago, belongs to investors popularly known as long-term holders (LTHs).

Statistically, the longer investors keep their coins dormant, the less likely they are to sell them in the future. As such, the LTH cohort with its relatively long holding time includes the resolute hands of the market. Despite their resilience, however, these investors have participated in selling during the past few months. Below is the chart shared by Edwards that shows the trend in the amount of supply dormant for longer than six months.

How the supply last active 6+ months ago has changed over the last year and a half | Source: @caprioleio on X
As is visible in the graph, the drawdown in the Bitcoin LTH supply changed for the worse during the cryptocurrency’s crash last month, indicating that the diamond hands took part in a significant amount of distribution. Since this selloff, however, the decline in the metric appears to have paused, at least for now. There has even been a small increase in the indicator recently, a potential sign of a shift in investor behavior.

Something to note is that while drops in the LTH supply can correspond to selling that’s occurring in the present, the same isn’t true in the case of an increase. An uptick in the metric isn’t a sign that members of the cohort are buying right now. Rather, it suggests some accumulation occurred six months ago, and now those coins have been held long enough to mature into the group.

That said, the trend is naturally still a positive sign for Bitcoin, as it implies HODLing behavior could be becoming more dominant on the network. The last time such a shift occurred was around the time of the cryptocurrency’s lows back in April.

What followed that LTH supply rise was BTC’s rally to new all-time highs (ATHs). Considering this, it only remains to be seen whether the latest shift toward long-term holding will lead to anything similar, or if the cryptocurrency’s decline is here to stay this time around.

Bitmine Continues Ethereum Buying Spree With Fresh 7,080 ETH Purchase cryptonews
ETH
Trusted Editorial content, reviewed by leading industry experts and seasoned editors. Ad Disclosure

Ethereum has fallen below the $2,800 mark after a sharp and sudden decline, deepening market anxiety and raising fresh questions about whether a broader bearish phase may be emerging. The drop has undermined bullish momentum, with buyers struggling to defend key support levels as selling pressure accelerates across both spot and derivatives markets.

Sentiment has deteriorated quickly, and several analysts are beginning to openly discuss the possibility of a sustained bear market if ETH fails to stabilize soon.

Yet amid the growing panic, a notable counter-signal continues to attract attention: Bitmine’s ongoing accumulation. Despite ETH’s decline, the firm has repeatedly added to its holdings, purchasing thousands of ETH over the past several weeks. Bitmine’s persistent buying behavior suggests that at least some large players still view the current correction as an opportunity rather than a risk.

For investors searching for signs of resilience, Bitmine’s actions have become a point of cautious optimism. While the macro structure remains fragile and the downtrend intact, steady accumulation from an institutional buyer provides a potential anchor of support — and raises the possibility that a rebound could form once selling pressure exhausts.

Bitmine Expands Its Massive Ethereum Position
According to on-chain data from Arkham, shared by Lookonchain, Bitmine has continued its aggressive accumulation strategy, purchasing an additional 7,080 ETH—worth approximately $19.8 million—just a few hours ago.

Bitmine-Linked Wallet Transfers | Source: Arkham
This latest buy adds to a series of repeated inflows over the past several weeks, reinforcing the firm’s conviction even as Ethereum trades near multi-month lows. Bitmine’s willingness to keep adding during periods of heightened volatility has become one of the most notable accumulation trends in the market.

With this purchase, Bitmine’s total Ethereum holdings have climbed to roughly 3.43 million ETH, now valued at around $9.6 billion at current prices. This positions the firm as one of the largest known institutional holders of ETH, and its continued accumulation stands in sharp contrast to the broader atmosphere of fear and defensive positioning. While many traders are reducing exposure amid Ethereum’s sharp decline, Bitmine appears to be doubling down.

Such behavior from a major entity often signals longer-term confidence in Ethereum’s fundamentals, regardless of short-term price action. For investors, Bitmine’s expanding position has created a counter-narrative to prevailing bearish sentiment, suggesting that deeper-pocketed players may be preparing for a recovery once the market finishes resetting.

ETH Tests Weekly Support as Trend Weakens
Ethereum’s weekly chart shows a significant loss of momentum, with price breaking below the 50 SMA and now sitting directly on top of the 100 SMA near the $2,750–$2,800 region. This zone has historically served as an important structural support during prior corrections, making the current interaction a critical moment for the broader trend. The sharp rejection from the $4,500 level marks one of ETH’s steepest weekly declines since 2022, highlighting the intensity of the current sell-off.

ETH consolidates around key level | Source: ETHUSDT chart on TradingView
The 50 SMA has begun to curl downward, signaling early signs of medium-term trend weakness. Meanwhile, the 100 SMA is flattening, acting as the last dynamic support before the 200 SMA at $2,450, which represents the true long-term floor. A clean weekly close below the 100 SMA would open the door to a deeper retracement toward that level.

Volume has increased during the recent decline, reflecting forced selling and derivatives-driven liquidations rather than orderly profit-taking. Despite this, the long lower wicks forming near $2,700 suggest buyers are still attempting to defend the area.

Benchmark analyst: 183% boom for Strategy stock despite BTC sell-off pressure cryptonews
BTC
Journalist

Posted: December 3, 2025

Strategy stock (Nasdaq:MSTR) showed mixed results on the 2nd of December. This followed confirmation that the firm would sell its Bitcoin holdings if the mNAV (market-to-net-asset-value) drops below 1x. 

The stock dipped over 8% to a low of $149 before rebounding and closing the Monday session at $171.5. 

However, analysts at investment bank and research firm Benchmark raised MSTR’s price target to $705, implying a 183% upside potential. 

In a note to clients, Benchmark’s equity Research Analyst Mark Palmer downplayed the MSTR fears, especially those linked to BTC drawdown and $8.2 billion debt obligations.  

He added,  

“In simple terms, the company would be unable to fully cover its ~$8.2bn of convertible debt outstanding if Bitcoin’s price were to fall below $12,700 and stay there.”

That would mean an 86% BTC price crash to cripple MSTR, but Palmer said such an outcome was highly unlikely. 

“While drawdowns of 80%+ have occurred multiple times during Bitcoin’s 17-year history, we believe multiple macro shocks would have to happen simultaneously to drive such a reversal at this point.”

In December, only Benchmark issued a strong buy for MSTR, despite the MSCI exclusion threat and the BTC correction. Thirteen other analysts also gave a ‘moderate buy’ rating. 

Source: Market Beat

According to Palmer, the stock has a “Bitcoin-linked reflexivity gives it upside torque that no other equity can match.”

Impact of Strategy’s $1.44B reserve
Strategy also announced a $1.44 billion reserve to cover obligations linked to dividends from preferred stocks it uses to raise capital for BTC purchases. 

Some hailed the reserve as a cushion for the firm to avoid selling its BTC to cover the obligations. However, since the reserve itself was another loan, others feared that the entire MSTR ecosystem could collapse soon. 

For critics, such a scenario could drag BTC and the entire crypto market with it. In fact, Peter Schiff called it the “end of MSTR.”

Source: X

Will Strategy sell its BTC holdings?
However, CryptoQuant analyst Carmelo Aleman disagreed with Schiff’s doomsday outlook. 

He highlighted that the current MSTR level was undervalued (tagging lower MSTR price bands) relative to its BTC reserves, a signal that triggered a rebound in 2022. 

Source: CryptoQuant

Market focus will now shift to MSTR mNAV (currently at 1.15x) and whether the firm sells its 650K BTC.

On the prediction site Polymarket, the odds of Strategy’s BTC sell-off by mid-2026 jumped to over 40% before easing below 30% at press time. Put differently, the chance for the same was low but not zero. 

Source: Polymarket

Final Thoughts

Despite market jitters, Benchmark foresees a 180% upside potential for MSTR stock, and 13 analysts are bullish on the stock. 
The market began pricing the possibility that Strategy may sell BTC in 2026.

XRP's Largest Wallets Shrink in Number as Holdings Hit 48B Tokens cryptonews
XRP
The number of 100M+ XRP wallets dropped 20.6% over eight weeks, with 569 wallets exiting this category.

XRP’s largest on-chain wallets show a mixed shift in recent weeks. New data from analytics firm Santiment reveals contrasting movements in wallet numbers and balances.

The platform reports that the group of wallets holding at least 100M XRP has shrunk. It also notes that the total coins held by the remaining wallets have reached a multi-year peak.

Large XRP Wallets Shrink Over 20%
According to Santiment, the number of 100M+ XRP wallets fell by 20.6% over the past eight weeks, reinforcing the decline noted earlier. The drop equals 569 large wallets moving out of this category during the period.

The accompanying chart shows a steady rise in large wallet counts through most of 2024 and early 2025. That upward trend then reverses sharply from early October 2025 to the present, highlighting a notable shift in on-chain dynamics.

Price moves over the same period indicate a weaker phase for XRP, with candles showing consistent pressure across recent sessions. The drop in large wallets appears to track this softer backdrop, suggesting a possible correlation between wallet activity and market conditions.

On-chain flows hint at consolidation among major addresses, with some balances likely merged into fewer wallets. This can reduce the visible wallet count even when overall holdings remain largely unchanged.

The decline in wallet numbers may also reflect exits by some large holders who moved funds elsewhere. Meanwhile, the remaining wallets appear to have absorbed the liquidity left behind, keeping total holdings relatively stable.

Whale Holdings Climb to Seven-Year High
Santiment highlights a contrasting signal in its dataset, as the remaining 100M+ wallets now hold 48B XRP. This level reflects a seven-year high and marks a clear jump in supply concentration.

The rise in total holdings suggests that major holders who stayed in the group accumulated more XRP. It also indicates that fewer wallets now control a larger share of the circulating supply, emphasizing increased concentration among top addresses.

Santiment’s data shows that the supply held by these major wallets has risen steadily since late 2023. This progression continued throughout 2024 and held firm into 2025, despite changing market conditions.

The platform does not offer any price expectation tied to these movements. XRP briefly slipped under $2.00 on Monday as broader markets turned risk-off. The token has since regained some ground and trades above $2.05 at the time of writing.

CME Group Launches Bitcoin Volatility Index for Institutional Traders cryptonews
BTC
TLDR

CME Group has launched a new suite of cryptocurrency benchmarks for institutional traders.
The suite includes the CME CF Bitcoin Volatility Index which tracks 30-day implied volatility.
The benchmarks provide standardized pricing for Bitcoin, Ether, Solana, and XRP.
The Bitcoin Volatility Index is a reference tool and is not available for direct trading.
CME Group reported over $900 billion in crypto futures and options volume in the last quarter.

CME Group introduced a new suite of cryptocurrency benchmarks designed for institutional traders. These tools include the CME CF Bitcoin Volatility Index and reference rates for multiple digital assets. This launch supports the growing demand for structured data in maturing crypto derivatives markets.

The new CME CF Cryptocurrency Benchmarks provide standardized pricing across Bitcoin, Ether, Solana, and XRP. They help institutional clients analyze risk and price options using familiar tools from traditional asset classes. This move enhances transparency and usability in cryptocurrency trading infrastructure.

CME Group stated the benchmarks aim to improve pricing consistency and risk assessment. They include reference rates and real-time volatility indexes tailored for institutional adoption. This aligns with the company’s strategy of expanding access to crypto markets.

Bitcoin Volatility Index Offers 30-day Expectations
The CME CF Bitcoin Volatility Index measures implied volatility in Bitcoin and Micro Bitcoin Futures options. It calculates expected price movement over a 30-day period using market-driven data. This tool serves as a reference point, not a tradable product.

“Volatility benchmarks are essential for understanding market risk,” CME Group said in the announcement. They support options pricing, hedging strategies, and real-time monitoring of trader sentiment. The index functions like equity market tools used in S&P and Nasdaq derivatives.

CME Group continues expanding its crypto infrastructure to match institutional expectations. The Bitcoin volatility data can integrate with portfolio management, hedging models, and risk systems. This release reflects growing institutional interest in crypto markets.

Institutional Activity Grows with Crypto Futures and Options
Institutional demand for crypto trading tools is rising. CME Group reported a record $900 billion in combined crypto futures and options volume last quarter. This includes contracts for Bitcoin and Ether.

The quarter closed with average daily open interest reaching $31.3 billion across CME Group crypto contracts. This reflects strong institutional commitment, indicating increased market depth. CME Group highlighted this as a signal of deeper liquidity.

CME Group’s data shows Ether and Micro Ether futures trading volumes are rising. More institutions are trading beyond Bitcoin and diversifying their crypto exposure. Crypto derivatives trading now spans a broader range of assets.

The Bitcoin volatility index fills a critical gap in the market. It supports institutional strategies that rely on forward-looking risk indicators. CME Group designed the index to work seamlessly with its existing product suite.

Standardized volatility tools allow institutions to operate within established frameworks. This includes pricing derivatives, assessing tail risk, and adjusting exposure. The benchmarks deliver consistent data across timeframes and assets.

CME Group has embedded these tools into systems used by major trading desks. This ensures ease of access and compatibility with regulated instruments. The tools reflect evolving demand from professional traders and asset managers.

StubHub (STUB) Slapped with Securities Lawsuit Over IPO Disclosures -- Hagens Berman stocknewsapi
STUB
SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 02, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Ticket resale giant StubHub Holdings, Inc. (NYSE: STUB) is facing a proposed securities class action stemming from its highly anticipated initial public offering just weeks before it released disappointing third-quarter results.

Hagens Berman is investigating whether StubHub’s IPO materials were misleading and urges investors in StubHub who purchased or otherwise acquired company shares pursuant to the IPO or on the open market to submit your losses now.

Class Period: Sept. 17, 2025 – Nov. 24, 2025
Lead Plaintiff Deadline: Jan. 23, 2026

                                       844-916-0895

StubHub Holdings (STUB) Securities Class Action

The lawsuit, styled Salabaj v. StubHub Holdings, Inc., et al., No 1:25-cv-09776 (S.D.N.Y.), seeks to represent investors who acquired common shares in the company’s September 17, 2025, IPO. The offering saw StubHub issue approximately 34 million shares at $23.50 apiece.

Allegations of Misrepresented Financial Health

The litigation centers on allegations that StubHub’s IPO offering documents were negligently prepared and contained untrue statements while failing to disclose crucial information to prospective investors.

Specifically, the complaint alleges the company did not disclose “known trends, events or uncertainties” that were already having, or were likely to have, an adverse impact on StubHub’s operations and key financial metrics.

The plaintiffs highlight the company’s strong emphasis on “free cash flow” in the offering documents, which the company positioned as a “meaningful indicator of liquidity for management and investors.” This metric, according to the documents, was the amount of cash generated from operations that could be used for strategic initiatives.
Post-IPO Plunge

The narrative, according to the complaint, began to unravel on Nov. 13, 2025, when the company announced its Q3 2025 financial results.

StubHub reported a negative free cash flow of $4.6 million, marking a staggering 143% decline from the prior year period.Net cash provided by operations plummeted to $3.8 million, a 69% decrease year-over-year.The company notably withheld Q4 2025 guidance, adding to investor uncertainty.
StubHub attributed the decline to “changes in timing of payments to vendors.” At the time of the earnings release, the company’s CFO commented, “From the outset, we anticipated that 2025 would present a more challenging growth environment for our market.”

The news triggered an immediate and sharp reaction in the market. StubHub shares were driven down approximately 20% in the subsequent trading session, closing at $14.87—more than 36% below the initial $23.50 IPO price.

Hagens Berman’s Investigation

INSP LAWSUIT DEADLINE: Hagens Berman Urges Inspire Medical Investors to Act by Jan. 5 Over 32% Crash and “Inspire V” Launch Failure stocknewsapi
INSP
SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 02, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- National shareholder rights law firm Hagens Berman reminds investors that the deadline to move the Court for appointment as lead plaintiff in the securities class action lawsuit against Inspire Medical Systems, Inc. (NYSE: INSP) is January 5, 2026.

The lawsuit alleges that Inspire Medical and its executives misled investors by providing assurances of “operational readiness” for the Inspire V device launch, while concealing critical failures in billing software and training that made a successful rollout impossible. The revelation of these failures forced an 80% cut to EPS guidance and caused the stock to crash over 32%.

“Our investigation centers on the purported disconnect between management’s claims of being ‘ready to throw the switch’ for the Inspire V launch and the alleged undisclosed operational reality,” said Reed Kathrein, the Hagens Berman partner leading the litigation. “We are specifically scrutinizing when executives knew that the software updates for Medicare claims processing had failed—effectively blocking reimbursement—and whether they concealed the inventory glut of the older Inspire IV device to maintain an artificial stock price. We urge investors in Inspire who suffered significant losses to contact the firm now to discuss their rights.”

Legal Analysis: The "Operational Readiness" Disclosure Gap

The complaint details the alleged material misstatements regarding the Company’s preparation for its most important product cycle. The firm is examining the claimed undisclosed operational hurdles that allegedly contradicted public assurances:

Operational FailureAllegation & DisclosureKey Legal IssuesBilling & ReimbursementManagement allegedly claimed policies were updated for prompt payment, but allegedly concealed that software updates for Medicare claims did not take effect until July 1, 2025.Whether INSP should have disclosed that centers could not bill for procedures, stalling adoption.Undisclosed Sales PracticeAllegedly concealed that customers held significant surplus inventory of the older Inspire IV device, stifling demand for the new product.Whether INSP should have disclosed alleged channel inventory headwinds.The Financial Impact (Aug. 4, 2025)Stock fell $42.04 per share (32%) after the Company admitted to an "elongated timeframe" and slashed 2025 EPS guidance by over 80%.Whether investors are entitled to damages resulting from the defendants’ alleged wrongful acts and omissions. The lawsuit covers investors who purchased Inspire Medical securities between August 6, 2024, and August 4, 2025.

Next Steps: Contact Partner Reed Kathrein Today

Hagens Berman has a proven track record, securing over $325 billion in settlements for investors and consumers.

Mr. Kathrein is actively advising investors who purchased INSP shares during the Class Period and suffered significant losses due to the alleged undisclosed Inspire V launch failures.

The Lead Plaintiff Deadline is January 5, 2026.

Emerging Markets ETF AVEM Adds Over $5 Billion YTD stocknewsapi
AVEM
Foreign equities investing has been one of the defining stories of the year. Even before 2025 got started, many investors were considering moving from underweight to neutral, at least, in ex-U.S. equities. Several events this year added tailwinds to that move, including tariff uncertainty and a monetary outlook gap between the U.S. and certain foreign markets. Emerging markets ETF strategies have benefitted in particular. One such ETF, AVEM, has performed for investors amid that market movement while adding more than $5 billion in YTD flows.

The Avantis Emerging Markets Equity ETF (AVEM) has added $5.2 billion in net inflow since January 1 of this year according to ETF Database data. The strategy, which charges a 33 basis point fee, now has more than $15 billion in total ETF AUM as of December 2, placing it in the top-five emerging markets ETFs by that metric.

Top Five by AUM: Emerging Markets ETF AVEM
The strategy, from American Century Investments shop Avantis Investors, offers a particular approach. The emerging markets ETF looks to combine the benefits of indexing, like diversification, transparency, and limited turnover, with certain strengths of active. For example, it can adapt to new market information to make investment decisions. That can help set it apart from other emerging markets ETF strategies.

AVEM invests in small-cap firms with strong profits and low valuations in emerging markets. At the same time, its approach aims to underweight large-cap firms that offer lower profitability and higher price-to-book values.

Together, that has helped the fund produce strong returns to pair with its significant flows. AVEM has returned 31.9% YTD according to ETF Database data. That has outperformed the fund’s ETF Database Category average in that time. The strategy has also performed over the last one year, as well, returning 30% in that time, also beating its average.

What should investors make of the emerging market ETF’s outlook for the rest of the year? The U.S. domestic monetary situation, when compared to emerging markets’ own monetary pictures, has a role to play. Many emerging markets economies have much less inflation and are ahead in their rate cycles. That, and potential future U.S. tariffs and a declining dollar, could see AVEM present a strong option to enter 2026.
