Summarize this article with:

Robert Kiyosaki sold his bitcoins, cashing in 2.25 million dollars. An unexpected decision, while he predicted a BTC at $250,000 by 2026. In a declining market, this withdrawal questions the real drivers of his strategy.

In brief

Robert Kiyosaki sold his Bitcoins, acquired at $6,000, for a total amount of 2.25 million dollars.
The gains were reinvested in two surgery centers and a billboard business, aiming at $27,500 of non-taxable monthly income.
Kiyosaki maintains his forecast of a Bitcoin at $250,000 by 2026 and plans to buy back once his new incomes are in place.
His decision, although tactical, revives the debate on the right time to take profits in an uncertain bullish cycle.

A sale marked by opportunism : Kiyosaki converts his gains
In an announcement, Robert Kiyosaki revealed having sold his bitcoins acquired at about $6,000 for a total amount of 2.25 million dollars, while he claimed to be reinforcing his investments in bitcoin and precious metals.

“I sold at about $90,000”, he stated, without providing more details on the platform or exact conditions of the sale. This price, never reached on spot markets, suggests either a personal estimate or a valuation based on an aggregate of his entry points.

This sale marks a capital gains conversion operation into physical investments. Kiyosaki remains faithful to his patrimonial strategy : creating recurring income sources from performing assets. He explains it himself in these terms : “the profits from bitcoin will be invested in two surgery centers and a billboard business”.

This repositioning is not an ideological disengagement from the crypto market, but a tactical reallocation. The author claims these investments should generate him a non-taxable monthly income of $27,500 from February 2026. A maneuver perfectly aligned with his patrimonial management principles, often hammered in his works. Here are the key points of this strategy, as he formulated them :

The purchase price of BTC : about $6,000 ;

The total amount of the sale : $2.25 million ;

The claimed selling price : $90,000 ;

The reallocation of gains : 2 surgery centers + 1 billboard business ;

The financial goal : $27,500 per month non-taxable from February 2026 ;

A long term vision : “I am still very optimistic on bitcoin and will start buying again as soon as my positive incomes are in place”.

This tactical choice therefore does not call into question his bullish vision on bitcoin but shows a refocus on tangible assets with fast cash flow, a concrete execution of his educational principles.

Kiyosaki sells while the bitcoin market falters
Kiyosaki’s sale occurs at a particularly tense moment for the crypto market. Bitcoin experienced a sharp correction, dropping below the $85,000 mark and briefly reaching $80,537 last Friday, in what appears to be the worst bearish phase since the crash of October 10th.

In this context, the Crypto Fear & Greed Index plunged to 11, a level described as “extreme fear”. The simultaneity between this market panic and Kiyosaki’s announcement fuels uncertainty among retail investors, some seeing it as a possible capitulation signal.

However, the reading of this operation must be nuanced. Kiyosaki did not sell out of fear. He has repeatedly affirmed his belief in bitcoin and even forecasts its rise to $250,000 by 2026, as he announced on November 9th.

He rather seems to have opted for a defensive patrimonial logic, preferring to secure a historical capital gain at the peak of an uncertain cycle. Other market figures share a long-term bullish vision : Peter Brandt sees BTC at $200,000 in 2029, and Bitfinex analysts consider recent massive Bitcoin ETF outflows as short-term moves, without altering fundamentals.

Every trader and investor has eyes on BTC $80k support, which has become the most critical support line as Bitcoin faces relentless selling pressure triggered by global macro shocks, liquidation spikes, and collapsing risk sentiment. While the BTC price today shows very mild attempts at stabilization,but the market still broadly remains fragile, and the BTC price chart continues to signal caution across major timeframes.

Why Crypto’s Q4 Wipeout Is Worst In Memory That Sparked Record Market StressThe downturn began on October 10, 2025, when the U.S. administration escalated its trade war with China. The announcement triggered a rapid and severe market reaction, wiping out $19.16 billion in crypto liquidations. Rising business costs, supply chain concerns, and global instability all contributed to a sharp unwind of leveraged longs.

Although many expected late-October rate cuts to soften the decline, but the Federal Reserve’s 0.25bps cut produced the opposite effect. The uncertain forward rate cuts left investors with little confidence in additional easing, pushing them further into risk-off sentiment territory. 

This shift is evident in the Crypto Liquidation charts, where long positions heavily outweighed shorts, confirming the dominance of fear-driven selling.

War Tensions and Institutional Retreat Add Fuel to the SelloffSImilarly, geopolitical shocks added further pressure. Not the only cause but one of the major cause was the most recent missile and drone attacks in the Russia-Ukraine conflict triggered another wave of panic, with $1.87 billion liquidated on November 21 and $1.70 billion on November 22. This sequence of events deepened concern that global conflict risk was rising and markets responded accordingly.

One of the major findings comes from institutional flows which reflected the same caution. Billions were withdrawn from crypto-backed investment products throughout November. As a result, the BTC price USD dropped sharply.

Even though Bitcoin reached an ATH of $126,296 earlier in a friendlier climate, but the macro backdrop has now overshadowed earlier optimism. Expectations for further rate cuts have diminished, dampening hopes for a quick stabilization.

BTC $80k Support Tested as Trend Weakens FurtherTechnically, Bitcoin price has been in a persistent decline, falling 35% from its peak to reach $80,524. While BTC price today shows a slight rebound toward $84,244, analysts emphasize that the bounce remains shallow and lacks momentum. The BTC price chart still reflects a structure that favors lower levels unless demand strengthens decisively.

The BTC $80k support level now represents the final near-term zone preventing a deeper slide. Analyst suggest that failure to stay above it could accelerate the drop toward $72,000-$73,000, followed by the broader $66,000 region if selling pressure escalates. On the other hand, a reclaim above $86,000 would be the earliest sign of stabilization.

Whether Bitcoin can defend BTC $80k support will largely shape the broader BTC price prediction and sentiment heading into December.

Bear Market Positioning: Smart Moves for the Next 12 MonthsAnother analyst said that the total market cap has shed $1.3T since October, signaling a clear bearish trend. but this phase is about positioning, not panic, per analyst. Based on monetary capacities, stack conviction through steady DCA if liquid, or stay in stables to protect capital, is the best strategy at times like these. 

Also, analysts suggest avoiding random tokens and focus on quality assets like BTC, ETH, and ZEC while watching high-liquidity chains such as SOL and BNB.

Any time you can make money from a stock without relying on its stock price appreciating, it's a good thing. That's why dividend stocks can be a valuable piece of virtually anyone's portfolio. They reward investors for simply holding on to them.

However, not all dividend stocks are alike. Some companies' dividends are at risk of being cut or eliminated because of poor business and financial performance. If you're looking for the smartest dividend stock to buy right now, it'd be one where you don't have to second-guess the stability of its dividend. That's the case with Coca-Cola (KO +2.44%).

Coca-Cola is a Dividend King, having increased its annual dividend for at least 50 consecutive years (it's currently at 63 years). That's a title that only a small number of companies hold, and one that shows Coca-Cola's longevity, consistency, and shareholder-friendly nature.

When you invest in Coca-Cola, you know you're investing in one of the world's most thorough businesses. It has a stronghold on the non-alcoholic beverage market, and its products sell regardless of economic conditions. This has been a recipe for its sustained success, and there are no signs of this changing for the foreseeable future.

Coca-Cola's average dividend yield over the past five years has been around 3%. If that average were to continue, a $1,000 investment would pay out $30 annually. That's not yacht-shopping money, but it can pay off over time as it adds to the natural compound effect of investing. Coca-Cola is a stock you don't have to lose sleep over.

, /PRNewswire/ -- Freedom Holding Corp. (NASDAQ: FRHC), an international investment and technology company, has published its annual Sustainability Report for the 2025 financial year, showcasing the company's substantial contributions to social, educational, sports, and environmental projects across the countries where it operates. The total volume of external ESG-oriented investments amounted to 27.87 billion tenge (USD 57.6 million), underscoring the consistency of the company's sustainability efforts.

Freedom Holding Corp Publishes 2025 Sustainability Report on ESG Initiatives.

"Sustainability for us is not a stand-alone program but a philosophy that guides how we grow, invest, and support the communities around us. Each project - whether in education, technology, sports, culture, or environmental protection - reflects our long-term commitment to building a stronger and more resilient region. Empowering young people, fostering innovation, and improving quality of life are not just priorities; they are responsibilities we embrace as part of our mission," said Timur Turlov, CEO of Freedom Holding Corp.

The report summarizes key achievements over the year, highlights progress in implementing the long-term strategy and demonstrates how the company continues to improve ESG management and develop internal social programs.

Key Investment Areas

Education and Technology
One of Freedom Holding's main priorities remains the development of modern education and technological infrastructure. As part of these efforts, 1.32 billion tenge (USD 2.73 million) was allocated for the construction and equipping of a new artificial intelligence facility at SDU University, now a center for research in fintech, AI, and digital technologies.

Complementing this initiative, 62.77 million tenge (USD 0.13 million) was allocated to the Freedom Fintech Bootcamp program, which trains specialists in Data Science and Machine Learning. Another major contribution to the country's technological development was the allocation of 1.86 billion tenge (USD 3.84 million) for hosting the ICPC World Finals 2024 in Kazakhstan - the world's largest competitive programming event.

Sports and Healthy Lifestyles
Alongside the development of educational projects, Freedom Holding Corp. continues to strengthen Kazakhstan's position in international sports. During the reporting period, support was provided for both the chess movement and youth football - two priority areas that have long been at the center of the company's attention.

Expanding its sports infrastructure footprint, Freedom invested 1.28 billion tenge (USD 2.64 million) in the construction of the Freedom Yelimay football complex in Semey, designed for year-round training. In addition, 795 million tenge (USD 1.64 million) was allocated for the construction of a sports complex for people with disabilities in Oral - an important project for increasing sports inclusivity.

Social and Infrastructure Projects
The report also highlights initiatives aimed at supporting regions and developing socially significant infrastructure. A total of 2.9 billion tenge (USD 5.99 million) was allocated to assist victims of the floods in western Kazakhstan, including the restoration of vital facilities and construction of protective dams. Continuing its work in the cultural sphere, Freedom Holding allocated 336 million tenge (USD 0.69 million) for the reconstruction of the Abai State Opera and Ballet Theatre. These initiatives complemented dozens of other projects related to supporting children, modernizing libraries, cultural events, and expanding public access to the internet.

Environmental Projects
Environmental initiatives also played a major role. Freedom Holding Corp. intensified its involvement in international climate events, including the construction of the Kazakhstan Pavilion at COP29, for which 149.91 million tenge (USD 0.31 million) was allocated. In addition, the company signed agreements with the Ministry of Ecology on biodiversity conservation and the restoration of the Turan tiger population.

The company's environmental work also includes long-term initiatives - from supporting the restoration of the Aral Sea ecosystem to developing green energy, where 200 million tenge (USD 0.41 million) was dedicated to promoting sustainable technologies. These efforts were further complemented by the launch of Freedom Fandomats - a national system for collecting plastic and aluminum.

Team Development: Youth, Growth, and Balance
Freedom Holding also saw significant internal progress. Freedom reports that 95% of its employees are based in Kazakhstan, and the number of specialists under the age of 30 has grown by 56%. In addition, the company achieved an almost perfect gender balance.

Strategic Achievements
The report also highlights major strategic achievements. These include the opening of the UN Regional Office for the Sustainable Development Goals in Central Asia, located in Almaty - an accomplishment made possible in part thanks to the initiating role of Freedom Holding Corp. In addition, the company's participation in COP29 resulted in the signing of two significant ESG agreements related to natural resource preservation and the development of a carbon certification system in Kazakhstan.

These achievements are accompanied by the strengthening of Freedom's technological ecosystem: the launch of the Freedom SuperApp, expansion of its telecommunications business, and entry into new markets.

There's a lot for investors to unpack before getting involved with DraftKings, but when the dust clears, the stock could rebound.

Pay close enough attention to political and sports news these days and it's hard to avoid mentions of prediction markets. Operators of next-generation derivatives exchanges have become so mainstream that Kalshi -- one of the biggest companies in the space -- was the subject of an almost seven-minute-long interview on CBS Sunday Morning on Nov. 16.

Companies such as Kalshi, Polymarket, and their peers offer event contracts on everything from award shows to cryptocurrency prices to elections to what outfits Taylor Swift will wear, but where these companies have cast chills down the spines of public market investors is sports betting. Those fears are reflected by DraftKings (DKNG +3.43%) -- a stock that's off 15.48% over the past month and that closed 46.24% below its 52-week high on Monday.

DraftKings stock is under siege and prediction markets aren't entirely to blame. Image source: Getty Images.

That signal could be confirmation that investors interested in nibbling at DraftKings need to consider the prediction markets issue, but there's more to the story.

What Wall Street says is ailing DraftKings stock
There's a sense among sell-side analysts that punishment recently incurred by shares of DraftKings and FanDuel owner Flutter Entertainment (FLUT +0.42%) is overblown as it relates to prediction markets and there's some credibility in that view.

For example, October sports wagering handle -- the total dollar amount of bets placed -- in New York soared to a record $2.64 billion, indicating that bettors, at least in large numbers, aren't leaving DraftKings and friends for Kalshi. And why would they? Data indicate Kalshi has worse pricing on NFL bets than DraftKings and FanDuel and that scenario has matriculated over to the NBA.

Some experts believe the pricing discrepancy is attributable to Kalshi charging retail users what amounts to trading fees -- levies not applied by DraftKings and other traditional sports books.

So what gives? Why is this once beloved growth stock being taken to task? It's less about prediction markets than some investors think and more about soft fundamentals. Let's start with that old gambling expression about the house always winning. Well, that's not true because bettors are finding favorable outcomes this NFL season, resulting in disappointing third-quarter results from DraftKings and an even more ominous downward revision by the operator of its 2025 guidance.

Making matters worse is sluggish monthly unique payor and revenue growth, which checked in at just 2% and 4%, respectively, in the September quarter. Those aren't growth stock levels and as the New York handle data confirm, DraftKings isn't ceding customers to prediction markets. It's encountering difficulty attracting new clients and compelling them to spend at high rates.

Speaking of DraftKings' spending...
Sports wagering is like any other industry in that companies need to dole out some cash in order to remain competitive. DraftKings will be doing just that when online sports betting rolls out in Missouri next month. That could be an attractive market for operators, but in order to get started on the right foot, DraftKings and its competitors need to spend on marketing and customer incentives.

That usually results in at least a quarter or two of scant or no profits in new markets. Speaking of profits, DraftKings doesn't have them and that's another source of long-running concern among shareholders.

The Missouri entry isn't the only item requiring an outlay of capital. To its credit, DraftKings isn't taking the prediction markets threat lightly. Last month, it announced the acquisition of Railbird Exchange, which sets the stage for DraftKings Predictions to come to life over the near term. That deal is rumored to have cost the buyer $250 million and while that entire sum likely isn't flowing to the seller all at once, it represents more spending by an unprofitable company with no guarantee the expenditure will pay dividends.

How DraftKings can rebound
There is a case for a DraftKings resurgence and it's not overly complex. One simple ingredient would be a spate of NFL underdogs covering and totals going under (retail bettors usually side with favorites and overs). A strong, cost-efficient start in Missouri could also calm skittish investors.

As would a solid debut by DraftKings Predictions, particularly if data emerge showing that platform is wresting market share from Kalshi.

In the meantime, management could do itself and investors a favor by deploying its newly expanded buyback program -- it doubled to $2 billion from $1 billion -- to gobble up some shares at depressed prices. That would be an act of confidence rather than just talking about it.

Ethereum is entering a pivotal phase of trading as whale accumulation strengthens while technical indicators show continued weakness. After briefly struggling near major resistance, ETH is now consolidating around $3,037.24, up 0.9% in the last 24 hours.

According to exchange and on-chain data, global crypto markets plunged Friday as prices slid and forced a widespread sell-off. Bitcoin fell under $83,000, while Ethereum traded below $2,800. The breakdown sent roughly $2 billion of positions into liquidation, knocking confidence and prompting quick losses across major tokens.

Heavy Liquidations Rock Traders
Reports show more than 390,000 accounts were wiped out during the move. One single BTCUSD order on Hyperliquid stood out at $37 million, a sign of how fierce the selling became. Bitcoin bore the brunt: about $962 million of BTC positions were erased within 24 hours, with long bets making up nearly $931 million of that total. These figures underline how concentrated the damage was among those betting on higher prices.

Long Positions Versus Shorts
Long liquidations across the market approached $1.78 billion, while short liquidations were much smaller at close to $130 million. A rapid shift followed a strong US jobs report, which removed odds of a December rate cut and triggered roughly $450 million in liquidations in just two hours. That macro surprise appears to have fed directly into traders’ risk management systems.

Options Expiry Raises Stakes
Derivatives activity added pressure as more than $4.2 billion of crypto options were due to expire that day. Over 39,000 BTC options, valued near $3.4 billion, were on the docket. The longer-term put-call ratio sat at 0.52, but heavy recent put buying pushed the 24-hour ratio up to 1.36, signaling a burst of hedging.

BTCUSD currently trading at $85,543. Chart: TradingView
The so-called max pain level for Bitcoin was around $98,000, well above where spot trades were happening. Ether options also featured prominently, with more than 185,000 contracts worth close to $525 million set to lapse. ETH’s 24-hour put-call moved to 1.01 from 0.72, and the options market’s max pain rested near $3,200, above spot prices near $2,800.

Altcoins Felt The Impact
The rout spread fast. Solana dropped 11% to about $126, while XRP slid more than 8% to roughly $1.91. Other tokens that fell in the wave included ASTER, HYPE, TNSR, DOGE, and ZEC. Selling was broad, showing that the move was not limited to one market or sector.

Binance CEO says Bitcoin’s 35% crash is just normal deleveraging, same stuff happening everywhere.
BTC still up 2x from last year, so this pullback is actually healthy profit taking.
Crypto volatility isn’t fair anymore; Tesla and AMD are swinging harder than Bitcoin right now.

Binance boss Richard Teng says everyone needs to chill about Bitcoin’s big drop. Speaking in Sydney, he told reporters the 35% slide from October’s $126,000 peak to around $82,000 is just normal risk off deleveraging you see across all markets right now, not some crypto only meltdown.

                                                      Bitcoin’s one year price chart. 

Teng pointed out Bitcoin is still more than double where it was last year, so a breather after such a run is healthy. “People took profits, markets consolidate, that’s how it works,” he said, adding the whole industry needs time to catch its breath and find solid ground again.

Not That Wild Anymore
He also pushed back on the old “Bitcoin is super volatile” story, saying its swings are pretty much in line with plenty of major assets these days. Sure, Bitcoin’s yearly volatility is still around 50%, but that’s actually way down from the 181% insanity back in 2013. Some big tech stocks like Tesla (65%), AMD (73%), and Super Micro (73%) are even jumpier right now.

The broader market’s been messy too—during the recent chaos, the S&P 500’s volatility actually shot past Bitcoin’s for a bit. 

Teng’s bottom line: crypto isn’t the wild child anymore, it’s just riding the same waves as everything else. A little consolidation now could set the stage for the next leg up.

TLDR:

Bitcoin nears the $79,300 realized price as ETF buyers face their first major volatility test.
CoinGecko data shows Bitcoin down 12 percent weekly, stressing new entrants across ETF platforms.
Daan Crypto Trades tracks a 0.382 Fibonacci zone near $84,000 after a 30 percent pullback.
October’s liquidation wave exceeded $20 billion in a day, shaping the current market backdrop.

Bitcoin trades near a level that could shape behavior among new ETF buyers. Market participants track $79,300 as a pressure point for recent entrants. 

Data from CoinGecko shows price weakness after a sharp weekly decline. The shift comes as analysts highlight key retracement levels during the latest correction.

Bitcoin ETF Buyers Confront Rising Pressure at $79,300
Bitcoin ETF buyers face their first meaningful stress point, according to IT Tech, who marked $79,300 as the realized price that defines sentiment. He noted that ETF flows often appear institutional, though activity largely comes from retail accounts using brokerage apps.

This creates sensitivity at the stated threshold, where confidence tends to shift quickly. He warned that prolonged trading below this level may trigger a new wave of selling from investors unused to large crypto drawdowns.

At publication, Bitcoin trades near $84,197 based on CoinGecko data. The figure reflects a 1.77 percent daily decline. It also represents a 12.30 percent slide over the past week amid broader market unwinding. This puts the current price within reach of the level that IT Tech described as a stress zone for new entrants.

Bitcoin’s current structure shows a comparable setup, though traders remain alert to broader liquidity concerns. This includes leverage tied to stablecoin activity and the rapid unwind seen after early October volatility.

The sharp liquidations that began around October 10 still shape market behavior. That period produced more than $20 billion in wiped-out positions within a single day. 

As previously reported by Blockonomi, it pushed total losses above $41 billion for the month despite limited macro shocks. Many traders continue to evaluate whether those events marked the start of a deeper reset or a temporary flush.

Bitcoin now trades in a zone where realized price, Fibonacci support, and market sentiment converge. ETF buyers continue to watch the same threshold. The next sessions may reveal whether the level becomes support or triggers further outflows from newly exposed retail traders.

Bitcoin’s market sentiment has plunged to extreme pessimism levels, signaling that a tactical or interim bottom may be forming even as price volatility continues. According to analytics firm 10x Research, its proprietary Greed & Fear Index has collapsed to a record low below 5 points—a range that historically reflects heightened fear among investors. Sentiment readings under 10% are considered extreme pessimism, while levels above 90% typically indicate excessive optimism.

More importantly for analysts, the 21-day simple moving average of the index has dropped to 10%, a zone that has repeatedly aligned with tactical lows for Bitcoin across multiple market cycles. Markus Thielen, founder of 10x Research, told CoinDesk that the current conditions resemble previous sentiment troughs that preceded short-term recoveries.

Thielen noted that while extreme fear doesn’t guarantee an immediate reversal, it usually suggests selling pressure may slow. He referenced a similar scenario earlier this year, when the sentiment indicator bottomed out before Bitcoin continued a brief decline—yet still managed to rally 10% shortly after that initial sentiment low. With pessimism now near historical extremes again, Thielen believes a comparable bounce could unfold.

At press time, Bitcoin was trading around $84,800, recovering slightly from a recent low of $80,880 recorded Friday. Despite the rebound, BTC remains down 10% for the week and 23% for the month, reflecting the broader cooling in market momentum.

For traders, extremely negative sentiment often acts as a contrarian signal. While further downside remains possible, especially in volatile crypto markets, historical patterns suggest that these deep fear readings may set the stage for a short-term Bitcoin price rebound as sentiment begins to stabilize.

In what could soon be recognized as the worst-performing week since November 2022, the market’s leading crypto, Bitcoin (BTC), experienced a significant downturn on Friday, plummeting to an eight-month low of $80,000.

Market analysts suggest that this downturn began in earnest on October 10, when the market first exhibited signs of a downward trajectory. That day was marked by a brutal liquidation event, erasing nearly $21 billion within minutes and triggering a series of flash crashes that have since perpetuated fears throughout the industry.

Digital Asset Treasuries At Risk? 
Ran Neuner, the founder of Crypto Banter, believes he has uncovered the reasons behind the crash that commenced on October 10 and why the market has struggled to regain its footing since then.

According to Neuner, two primary players known as Digital Asset Treasuries (DATs), including firms like Strategy (MSTR) and others, have been significant buyers driving this market cycle. The objective for these firms is straightforward: to become large enough to gain entry into major indices. 

Once included, passive index trackers are compelled to purchase large quantities of their stocks, thereby enabling these companies to grow even larger and secure placements in additional indices, thus perpetuating a self-reinforcing cycle.

On October 10, MSCI, the world’s second-largest index company, announced a critical evaluation. They are questioning whether companies that primarily hold crypto assets should be classified as either “companies” or “funds.” If these firms are categorized as funds, they would no longer qualify for inclusion in passive indexing. 

This is crucial because funds follow a cyclical pattern: they acquire assets, grow larger, and become eligible for additional indices, further boosting their asset base. A ruling on this matter is anticipated on January 15, 2026. 

Should it favor the classification of these companies as funds, Neuner asserts that firms like Strategy could face automatic removal from all indices. Such a decision would compel pension funds and other passive index holders to divest from these companies, effectively diminishing one of their primary reasons for existence.

The Future Of Crypto Hinges On Upcoming Ruling
Given that DATs have underpinned the current market cycle through substantial purchasing pressure, investors apparently recognized the implications of the October 10 announcement right away and adjusted their positions accordingly. 

This pivotal date now appears anything but coincidental; it marked a realization among informed market participants regarding significant risks to both cryptocurrencies and the existing market structure.

Looking ahead, the expert predicts that the market could continue to decline until the end of December. If the forthcoming announcement from MSCI is unfavorable, Neuner believes that a substantial sell-off may ensue as investors prepare for the potential exclusion from indices.

Conversely, if the ruling is positive, Neuner asserts that it could signal a renewed bull market for Bitcoin and the broader crypto market.

As of this writing, Bitcoin has slightly recovered to $84,880. However, the market’s leading cryptocurrency is trading 32% below its all-time high of $126,000, which was reached at the beginning of October—just four days before the major crash.

The US government shutdown: October 1 to November 13.
Trump’s threat to hike tariffs on Chinese shipments by an additional 100%: October 10.
Hawkish Fed Chair Powell press conference: October 29.
Fading bets on a December Fed rate cut: November.

Crucially, these adverse market forces overshadowed key price catalysts, including the highly anticipated launch of XRP-spot ETFs.

Fed Policy Shift Sparks XRP Rebound but November Losses Persist
On Friday, November 21, markets revived bets on a December Fed rate cut, triggering a rebound to $1.95. NY Fed President and FOMC voting member John Williams raised the chances of a December rate cut, increasing from 39.1% on Thursday, November 20, to 69.3% on Friday, November 21.

However, XRP remains deep in negative territory for November, down 22%, despite the US government reopening, the US-China trade truce, and the rebound in bets on a December Fed rate cut.

FundStrat: Liquidity Shock Still Unwinding
FundStrat Capital Chief Investment Officer Tom Lee spoke about the October 10 flash crash on November 8, stating:

“The October 10 deleverage was the biggest in history, and that means there are still ripple effects being felt even two weeks later. […] So, I’d say it’s probably still a couple more weeks.”

MSCI Consultation Triggers Market Capitulation
However, on November 21, analysts attributed the market capitulation to the potential reclassification of digital asset treasury companies (DATs) to funds. The classification of listed companies, such as Strategy (MSTR), could have dire consequences for Bitcoin (BTC) and ultimately, the broader crypto market. XRP’s close correlation with BTC exposed the token to the MSCI news.

Strategy founder and chairman Michael Saylor reacted to the MSCI consultation, stating:

“Strategy is not a fund, not a trust, and not a holding company. We’re a publicly traded operating company with a $500 million software business and a unique treasury strategy that uses Bitcoin as productive capital. Funds and trusts passively hold assets. Holding companies sit on investments. We create, structure, issue, and operate.”

The Kobeissi Letter reported on Michael Saylor’s response to the DAT classification issue, stating:

“This comes after MSCI launched a formal consultation on how to classify digital asset treasury companies (DATs). MSCI views such companies as more similar to investment funds rather than traditional operating businesses.”

The Kobeissi Letter elaborated on the consultation, adding:

“Why is this important? Investment funds and trusts ineligible for their flagship equity benchmarks like the MSCI USA Index and MSCI World Index. If the MSCI and others rule that MicroStrategy is in fact an investment fund or trust, the resulting exclusion would be market-moving. MSTR is now down 70% from its high.”

MSCI Consulation Paper Behind the October 10 Flash Crash
Crypto commentator Ran Neuner, with over 900,000 followers on X, shared a screenshot of the MSCI consultation paper. The paper, titled ‘Extension of the Consultation on Digital asset Treasury Companies’ was dated October 10, time-stamped 834 PM GMT. Notably, XRP slumped to a low of $0.7773 within 30 minutes of the MSCI consultation paper release before briefly reclaiming the $2.6 handle.

The decision on whether DATs holding over 50% of their assets in crypto should remain in major stock indices or be reclassified as funds is due on January 15, 2026. January 15, 2026, could be a defining moment for XRP, given the absence of blue-chip listed firms with sizeable XRP holdings as treasury reserve assets.

Broader Market Implications for XRP
The delisting of DATs from major indices could impact demand for BTC. Meanwhile, robust inflows into XRP-spot ETFs and crypto-friendly legislation could lift XRP. Crucially, these scenarios could see XRP decouple from BTC.

New York, New York--(Newsfile Corp. - November 21, 2025) - WHY: Rosen Law Firm, a global investor rights law firm, reminds purchasers of securities of Molina Healthcare, Inc. (NYSE: MOH) between February 5, 2025 and July 23, 2025, both dates inclusive (the "Class Period"), of the important December 2, 2025 lead plaintiff deadline.

SO WHAT: If you purchased Molina securities during the Class Period you may be entitled to compensation without payment of any out of pocket fees or costs through a contingency fee arrangement.

WHAT TO DO NEXT: To join the Molina class action, go to https://rosenlegal.com/submit-form/?case_id=45913 or call Phillip Kim, Esq. toll-free at 866-767-3653 or email [email protected] for information on the class action. A class action lawsuit has already been filed. If you wish to serve as lead plaintiff, you must move the Court no later than December 2, 2025. A lead plaintiff is a representative party acting on behalf of other class members in directing the litigation.

WHY ROSEN LAW: We encourage investors to select qualified counsel with a track record of success in leadership roles. Often, firms issuing notices do not have comparable experience, resources, or any meaningful peer recognition. Many of these firms do not actually litigate securities class actions, but are merely middlemen that refer clients or partner with law firms that actually litigate the cases. Be wise in selecting counsel. The Rosen Law Firm represents investors throughout the globe, concentrating its practice in securities class actions and shareholder derivative litigation. Rosen Law Firm achieved the largest ever securities class action settlement against a Chinese Company at the time. Rosen Law Firm was Ranked No. 1 by ISS Securities Class Action Services for number of securities class action settlements in 2017. The firm has been ranked in the top 4 each year since 2013 and has recovered hundreds of millions of dollars for investors. In 2019 alone the firm secured over $438 million for investors. In 2020, founding partner Laurence Rosen was named by law360 as a Titan of Plaintiffs' Bar. Many of the firm's attorneys have been recognized by Lawdragon and Super Lawyers.

DETAILS OF THE CASE: According to the lawsuit, defendants throughout the Class Period failed to disclose to investors: (1) material, adverse facts concerning Molina's "medical cost trend assumptions;" (2) that Molina was experiencing a "dislocation between premium rates and medical cost trend;" (3) that Molina's near term growth was dependent on a lack of "utilization of behavioral health, pharmacy, and inpatient and outpatient services;" (4) as a result of the foregoing, Molina's financial guidance for fiscal year 2025 was substantially likely to be cut; and (5) as a result of the foregoing, defendants' positive statements about Molina's business, operations, and prospects were materially misleading and/or lacked a reasonable basis. When the true details entered the market, the lawsuit claims that investors suffered damages.

To join the Molina class action, go to https://rosenlegal.com/submit-form/?case_id=45913 or call Phillip Kim, Esq. toll-free at 866-767-3653 or email [email protected] for information on the class action.

No Class Has Been Certified. Until a class is certified, you are not represented by counsel unless you retain one. You may select counsel of your choice. You may also remain an absent class member and do nothing at this point. An investor's ability to share in any potential future recovery is not dependent upon serving as lead plaintiff.

The Bitcoin investment vehicle is falling along with broader cryptocurrency prices.

Shares of Strategy (MSTR 3.74%) -- formerly MicroStrategy -- tumbled 14.4% this week, according to data from S&P Global Market Intelligence. The largest known investor in Bitcoin fell along with the price of the cryptocurrency, which briefly slipped to around $80,000 before recovering to $85,000 as of this writing on November 21st, 2025. Historically, Strategy has traded at a premium to its underlying Bitcoin net asset value (NAV), but that has compressed in 2025.

Shares are now down 43% year-to-date. Here's why Strategy stock was falling yet again this week.

Falling Bitcoin, new funding sources
Beginning back in 2020, Strategy went on a journey of raising funds to buy Bitcoin on its balance sheet. As the price of Bitcoin has gone up and the company traded at a premium to its Bitcoin NAV, it has been able to efficiently raise more money to buy more Bitcoin. Its shares outstanding have risen by 199% in the last five years in order to fund Bitcoin purchases, and combined with rising cryptocurrency prices, Strategy's stock is up 667% in the last five years alone.

Now, these trends are reversing. The gap between its NAV and the stock's market gap is narrowing, which we can see through the price performance of Bitcoin vs. Strategy stock. Strategy stock is down 43% this year, while Bitcoin is only down 10%. As of this writing, the value of Bitcoin on its balance sheet minus its outstanding debt is $46 billion. Strategy's market cap is barely higher, at $49 billion.

With falling cryptocurrency prices, it is getting harder and harder for Strategy to raise funds through stock offerings. This has led it to new funding sources, such as the recent preferred stock it sold that raised $700 million. Preferred stock will add more cash to the balance sheet but will increase its cost of funding, as it comes with a 10% annual interest payment.

Is Strategy stock a buy today?
An investment in Strategy while its stock traded well above the underlying assets on its balance sheet never made much sense. Today, with that gap closed, you might have a better argument for investing in the company, especially after this sharp drawdown.

But at the end of the day, you are buying Strategy stock to get exposure to Bitcoin. Why not make it simpler for yourself and just buy Bitcoin directly on a cryptocurrency exchange? Strategy is a complicated mess of debt, preferred stock, and potential future share dilution. If you are a believer in Bitcoin, just buy Bitcoin and skip buying Strategy, you'll sleep easier at night.
