Market Signal Briefing

Data shows that weak hands flood Binance, while BTC whales and institutions steadily buy without accelerating purchases.

Bitcoin’s (BTC) latest plunge toward the $93,000 level appears to be driven largely by short-term market participants, according to new analysis from CryptoQuant.

This essentially indicates a growing divergence between activity on Binance and behavior in institutional channels.

Retail Selling vs Institutional Absorption
Data shows Bitcoin exchange inflows on Binance have surged sharply in recent days, as the figure rose from 5,500 BTC to nearly 15,000 BTC on November 14. CryptoQuant stated that this spike points to intense selling pressure from short-term holders and traders unwinding long positions as prices fell.

Additionally, the Binance BTC RHODL Inflow indicator shows a notable increase in the share of younger coins entering the exchange, alongside an almost complete collapse in older coin inflows. Such a pattern is evidence that panicked short-term investors, not long-term holders, are behind the selling.

The same cannot be said for institutional activity, which appears far more measured. Balances at OTC desks have been found to have climbed to roughly 156,000 BTC, after rising by nearly 7,300 BTC over the past month. This has been identified as the highest level since August.

While this does not indicate aggressive institutional buying, CryptoQuant explained that institutions are not selling into the downturn and are instead quietly absorbing liquidity off-exchange. This steady accumulation is occurring without any major acceleration in demand, which could mean that institutions are using the pullback to reposition rather than exit.

Redistribution Or Bear Market?
Even as prices retreat, long-term investor appetite for Bitcoin is only strengthening. For instance, the Accumulator Addresses Demand indicator has now climbed past 352,000 BTC, with its 30-day moving average rising steadily. This trend shows that committed, long-horizon buyers are continuing to add to their positions, which confirms that Bitcoin is slowly moving out of weaker hands and into more resilient, patient portfolios.

According to the analytics platform, the market is now in a redistribution phase, where Bitcoin moves out of speculative, short-term holdings and into the portfolios of larger and more committed investors. Such transitions have historically led to periods of stabilization and can help lay the groundwork for renewed upside momentum if institutional demand continues.

However, not all interpret the recent market behavior through the same lens. Kobeissi Letter, for one, believes that the crypto asset has officially entered a structural bear market, one driven not by weak fundamentals but by deep mechanical pressures. Excess leverage, thin liquidity, and more than $1 billion wipeouts across multiple sessions clearly mean that the market is breaking under its own weight.

Given the sheer depth of negative market sentiment for Bitcoin, it would take a brave person to predict that a bottom could be in. However, based on technical analysis, the bottom is indeed forming, or is already in. Is this the case, or is the vast majority of the market right, and the bull market is over?

Source: Alternative.me

Sunday’s Fear and Greed reading of 10, which is one of the lowest measurements since the beginning of 2018, expresses just how bad market sentiment has become. Be that as it may, every other time sentiment has been this poor, it has marked a bottom and a big rally has usually followed.

A bounce from major confluences

Source: TradingView

The 4-hour chart for the $BTC price shows that the price has just retested the confluence of the descending channel (blue lines) and the major ascending trendline. The 0.618 Fibonacci also runs directly through this confluence, so if there ever was a place for a bounce it was here.

Will there be any more sideways and downwards choppiness? Possibly, yes. The very low time frames are showing overbought, as in the 4-hour Stochastic RSI indicators in the chart, but all the higher time frame indicators have reset and are ready to climb, so this next upside leg could get going after perhaps one more little retest of the supports.

Major trendline is redrawn and becomes bullish

Source: TradingView

As can be seen in the daily time frame, the major trendline underneath the price has been redrawn. This trendline was previously being taken from the August low. However, it can be drawn from the early part of the bull market, and it can be seen that candle bodies did not confirm below, even during those lows of August and September. 

This puts a different perspective on the $BTC price, and shows that instead of confirming a breakdown, the price is instead bouncing from the trendline. This puts a far more bullish slant on things, and correlates better with other indicators.

Retesting the bottom of the blue channel was another bullish factor. Descending channels would normally break to the upside, so it would be more probable that the price rises back to the top of the channel from here, breaking back above $100,000 on the way.

Mostly bullish in weekly time frame but ...

Looking at the $BTC price from a weekly viewpoint, it can be observed that the trendline is good and that a bounce can now take place from here. It remains to be seen how strong that bounce eventually becomes, and whether it will have the momentum to break through the top of the 8-year ascending trendline. 4 relatively recent knocks on this particular glass roof will have weakened it.

The weekly Stochastic RSI indicators are now practically at the bottom, and should soon be ready to angle back up, eventually signalling plenty of upside price momentum.

At the bottom of the chart, the RSI indicator has fallen below the 44.00 level, which has previously acted as bull market support. Bulls will be hoping that the current tick up will not be to confirm the breakdown, but will rise through the 44.00 level and confirm above.

US President Donald Trump on Friday voiced support for a Senate measure that would let the US impose tariffs of up to 500% on imports from nations still buying Russian energy. “It would be okay with me,” he said.

Based on reports, the proposal names oil, natural gas, petroleum products and uranium as covered goods and highlights major buyers such as India and China.

The move is described as a tool meant to squeeze Russia’s export revenues, but the measure remains proposed and has not become law.

Tariffs Up To 500% On Energy Imports
Reports have disclosed that the bill would give the President authority to slap punitive duties — as high as 500% — on goods coming from any country judged to be materially trading in Russian energy.

JUST IN: 🇺🇸🇷🇺 President Trump approves bill allowing 500% tariffs on countries trading with Russia. pic.twitter.com/qaBKVUMwTN

— BRICS News (@BRICSinfo) November 17, 2025

Lawmakers behind the text say the measure targets energy purchases that help fund Moscow. How the tariff would be applied, and the exact list of goods and exceptions, is still being worked out in committee.

Legal experts warn that a 500% duty would raise immediate questions about trade rules and possible retaliation.

Immediate Shock To Risk Assets
Markets reacted fast. Crypto traders moved to the exits in the first hours after the news, pushing volatility up across major tokens.

Nearly $620 million in crypto positions were liquidated in 24 hours, forcing over 152,000 traders out, with a single $30 million BTC-USD order on Hyperliquid being the largest hit.

BTCUSD trading at $95,456 on the 24-hour chart: TradingView
Major altcoins like XRP, Solana, and Cardano saw sharp swings, and Ethereum dropped toward the $3,000 level.

Bitcoin took a 1% hit following the news. In the last week, BTC has lost close to 10% of its value since hitting an all-time high of $126k on October 6, 2025.

The crypto market is highly sensitive to geopolitical trade shocks. Analysts warn that a proposed 500% tariff on countries trading with Russia—significantly higher than past rates that caused a $200 billion wipeout—could trigger severe panic selling.

Analysts believe that if the large-scale tariff is brought into effect, its short-term effect could decrease Bitcoin and major altcoins’ prices by 10% to 20% due to increased economic uncertainty and panic.

Wider Economic Ripples And Energy Prices
If the tariffs were ever applied, energy flows would be disrupted. That could push crude and gas prices higher, and higher energy costs usually feed into inflation.

Central banks might respond by holding rates higher for longer, which can hurt risk assets including crypto. Yet, history shows that once a new price regime takes hold, people sometimes seek alternatives to cash and bank deposits. That dynamic is part of why crypto markets are watching this proposal so closely.

Top Stories

Chainlink price has formed multiple bearish patterns that suggest its ongoing downtrend could extend over the coming weeks.

Summary

Chainlink price is down nearly 50% from its yearly high.
LINK price is close to confirming a death cross on the 1-day chart.

According to data from crypto.news, Chainlink (LINK) hit a yearly high of $27.70 in August this year. It has since dropped by 49% to $14.05 last check on Monday, Nov. 17.

Chainlink price entered the downtrend amid broader macroeconomic headwinds, including investor concerns surrounding U.S. tariffs on key economies and diminishing hopes of another rate cut by the Federal Reserve in December.

Data from DeFiLlama shows that the total value locked in all Chainlink-based DeFi applications has fallen to $608.14 million, significantly lower than $1.13 billion held in late August this year. Weekly fees generated by these protocols have also dropped 45% in the period.

Declining TVL and fees mean that the overall usage and demand for Chainlink’s services within the DeFi space have weakened, as activity over the network has slowed down, leading some investors to move towards alternative oracle solutions in recent months.

Chainlink price analysis
On the daily chart, Chainlink price has formed a multi-year symmetrical triangle pattern. The pattern is usually neutral in nature; however, breakouts from the upper or lower trendlines from which it is formed can decide the direction of the next major move.

Chainlink price forms a death cross on the daily chart — Nov. 17 | Source: crypto.news
At press time, LINK price appeared to be approaching a breakdown from the lower boundary of the pattern, a zone where buying interest has repeatedly emerged each time it dipped to these levels. However, the current momentum suggests that buyers may be losing strength.

Adding another layer of bearish pressure, the 50-day simple moving average is on the verge of crossing below the 200-day simple moving average. If this crossover takes place, it would confirm a death cross, a historically reliable indicator of sustained downtrends in the weeks that follow.

For now, the key support level for LINK stands at $11.06, which coincides with the 38.2% Fibonacci retracement level. 

A drop below this would strongly and clearly confirm the breakdown from the symmetrical triangle pattern and could drive further losses to $10 or lower.

However, data from Nansen shows that the amount of tokens held by whale addresses has increased by 20% to 2.06 million over the last 7 days.

While it does not fully negate the risk of further downside, such concentrated buying activity might help stabilize prices near current support levels. If retail traders interpret this as a sign of renewed confidence from experienced market participants, it could limit the severity of any potential correction in the short term.

Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), and Ripple (XRP) began the new week bearish after recording losses over the weekend. The leading cryptocurrency is now trading near its recent support level but market sentiment remains fragile due to the ongoing volatility.

The Cardano Foundation reports that progress has been “steady across every focus area,” encompassing Web3, real-world assets, DeFi.

Top spot Bitcoin ETFs were all in the red on November 13th as the bears ran rampant on the spot market, pulling BTC below the long-term $100k support. The top cryptocurrency by market capitalization witnessed the second-largest net outflow from its spot ETFs since its launch back in March 2024. The data for Friday is still not out, but it may yet follow the bloodbath from the day before.

All major custodial funds like Grayscale’s GBTC, Fidelity’s FBTC, BlackRock’s IBIT, and the rest of the pack posted losses. Here is the complete breakdown of the ETF situation:

Image Source: Farside
A wave of selling swept through Bitcoin ETFs, driven by massive outflows. GBTC led the charge, losing a whopping $318.2 million. BlackRock’s IBIT was close behind, with investors withdrawing $256.6 million, and Fidelity’s FBTC saw $119.9 million leave the fund. In fact, nearly all major Bitcoin ETFs—including offerings from Ark/21Shares, Bitwise, VanEck, Invesco, Valkyrie, and Franklin Templeton—experienced net outflows.

The outflows have outpaced the inflows for the last 30 days, and that is a worrying sign for the bullish cause. Total Assets Under Management have fallen below $60 billion, partly due to net outflows and partly due to the sudden drop in the digital currency’s price index.

Institutional Researchers Defiant 
However, institutional investors thought that demand would remain strong.

“This flow weighs on short-term momentum but doesn’t dent the broader structural demand. These bleed-outs align with oversold conditions, opening doors for long-term opportunists.”, said Vincent Liu, the Chief Investment Officer (CIO) of Kronos Research. 

Others were less upbeat and described the deterioration of the macro market sentiment.

“Investors are pulling capital from higher-beta assets and rotating into safety, reflecting uncertainty around the Fed’s path and deteriorating macro sentiment”, stated Min Jung, a research associate of Presto Research.

The Future
Bitcoin is currently trading around the $96k level, following its bearish drop below $100k. This is the second time the major digital asset has dropped below the crucial support level this month, and this time, no swift pullback has been witnessed, encouraging the bearish setup.

Institutional ETF investors have sensed the gloomy situation and are looking to withdraw massive amounts from their portfolios. While most of them are still invested in the premier digital asset, the fact remains that they aren’t ready to bet heavily on a risky asset right now, as the market has yet to establish a solid floor.

The end of 2025 is expected to be interesting in that regard. A late price reversal could change the game entirely.

With a market cap still below $100 million, many investors expect its rally to extend further.

However, this explosive growth also comes with hidden risks tied to on-chain data and market volatility. This article examines FIRO’s opportunities and challenges in light of recent developments.

What Opportunities Come With FIRO’s Rally in November?Firo, previously known as Zcoin, launched in 2016 and became a pioneer in privacy-focused cryptocurrencies. Its nine-year lifespan demonstrates resilience across multiple market cycles, which serves as an initial advantage attracting investors.

“Old names can shine again, but only the ones that kept building deserve to. And I genuinely believe this Dino Coin wave will pull fresh liquidity into the market, reviving momentum and setting the stage for the next Altcoin Season,” investor Tanaka predicted.

Firo was the first coin to deploy Zero-Knowledge (ZK) proofs on mainnet, even before Zcash (ZEC). This technology offers users a superior layer of privacy protection.

ZEC’s recent rally pushed many privacy-themed altcoins upward. As a result, the privacy coin sector became one of the best-performing categories, recording an average gain of 320%, according to Artemis.

As a result, many investors compare FIRO’s trajectory with that of ZEC. They believe FIRO still has room to accelerate and break out of its low-cap status.

“Buying FIRO at $5.3 is like buying ZEC at $5.3,” investor 𝐙𝐞𝐫𝐞𝐛𝐮𝐬 predicted.

BeInCrypto data shows FIRO has surpassed the $5 mark, reaching its highest price since August 2022. The altcoin has ranked as the #1 trending asset on CoinGecko and remained in the top 3 for an entire week.

The biggest highlight at the moment is the upcoming hard fork. Expected to arrive in just two days at block 1,205,100 (November 19, 2025), Firo will upgrade to version 0.14.15.0. The standout feature is the ability to transfer Spark names — digital domains within the Firo ecosystem.

🚨The next hard fork is just around the corner, estimated in about 2 days at block 1,205,100. 🎉

✅Lower GPU VRAM requirements for mining

Previously, Spark names were only used for wallet identification. They will now become freely tradable assets, creating an internal “domain economy.” According to Firo’s official blog, this upgrade increases liquidity and encourages community participation. The hard fork is expected to boost demand for FIRO.

What About the Risks?Opportunities come with risks. On-chain data shows the top 10 richest wallets control more than 39% of FIRO’s total supply — an alarmingly concentrated distribution.

Richest FIRO Addresses. Source: CryptoidThese wallets have remained dormant for years and accumulated FIRO at low prices between 2018 and 2024. With the current price above $5, these holders are nearing break-even or sitting on profits. This situation could trigger large-scale selling if they decide to realize gains.

Privacy coins have historically exhibited strong volatility due to regulatory pressure from governments. FIRO faces the same vulnerability.

Additionally, FIRO and other privacy coins depend heavily on ZEC’s trend. Meanwhile, many analysts warn that ZEC may be forming a new bubble pattern.

207 billion SHIB tokens exit exchanges in 24-Hour period, largest outflow in months.

Summary

207 billion SHIB tokens exited exchanges in 24 hours, marking the largest withdrawal in months.
Despite major outflows, SHIB’s price remained stable due to weak market momentum and technical resistance.
Investors show neutral stance, holding tokens as Shiba Inu awaits new project announcements.

Shiba Inu (SHIB) experienced a major withdrawal event when 207 billion SHIB tokens exited cryptocurrency exchanges throughout a single day according to CryptoQuant data. The recent withdrawal stands as one of the biggest single-day withdrawals since the last few months.

The CryptoQuant data shows that 121 billion SHIB tokens left exchanges during November 15 before continuing their exit pattern into November 16.

The exchange supply reduction failed to influence SHIB price movements because of existing technical obstacles. The token operated at a support area when analysts conducted their assessment. The Relative Strength Index showed 39 while all major moving averages maintained positions above current market value according to technical analysis.

The Relative Strength Index showed 39 which indicates weak market momentum. The trading activity stayed at a constant level because investors chose to keep their positions instead of selling their assets according to market statistics.

Technical analysts predict SHIB needs to break past its current support levels to test the first resistance area where moving averages intersect. The current token price remains below both resistance levels which have not faced testing since the start of the token outflow.

The exchange data shows no connection between market price movements and token withdrawal activities. The accelerated exchange token withdrawals create a situation where sellers face reduced available supply. Market participants who remove their tokens from exchanges indicate they want to keep their positions instead of selling their assets.

The current market behavior differs from distribution patterns because tokens enter exchanges before investors start selling. The historical data indicates that prolonged exchange withdrawals have led to market trend changes although investors cannot predict when these events will occur.

The current market value of Shiba Inu stands at 90% below its peak market value. The cryptocurrency market experienced significant price fluctuations during November according to market reports.

The Shiba Inu development team has announced upcoming projects but they have not revealed any details about these initiatives. Market observers note that trading activity indicates investors have taken a neutral stance instead of buying or selling their tokens.

The derivatives arm of Singapore Exchange (SGX) said on Monday that it would launch bitcoin and ether cryptocurrency perpetual futures trading on its platform.

Most institutional Bitcoin investors are unaware or unconcerned about the Core vs Knots debate.

Nick Szabo, a prominent Bitcoin pioneer and early developer of smart contracts, has challenged the widespread belief that Bitcoin remains impervious to external threats. His recent statements highlight potential vulnerabilities in the network's legal infrastructure.

Szabo posted his concerns on X, stating that Bitcoin and other layer-1 networks possess a "legal attack" surface. This vulnerability allows governments and large corporations to disrupt operations through regulatory channels.

The cryptocurrency veteran dismissed the notion that Bitcoin functions as a completely autonomous system. He described the belief that blockchain protocols can withstand any governmental interference as "insanity." His position directly contradicts the common narrative of Bitcoin as an unstoppable financial network.

Szabo's perspective carries substantial weight in the cryptocurrency community. He developed the concept of Bit Gold in 1988, predating the creation of Bitcoin. His pioneering work on smart contracts established him as a foundational figure in the development of digital currency. Speculation has long circulated that Szabo might be Satoshi Nakamoto, the anonymous creator of Bitcoin. He has consistently denied these claims.

Legal Pressure Points in the Bitcoin NetworkThe Bitcoin pioneer identified specific targets for potential government action. Miners, node operators, and wallet service providers represent critical infrastructure points vulnerable to regulatory pressure. These entities operate within established legal frameworks, making them susceptible to coordinated enforcement actions.

Szabo focused his analysis on jurisdictions that maintain a strong rule of law. In these regions, authorities possess clear mechanisms to compel network participants into compliance. His warning centered on the potential for forced manipulation of network data.

The ability to insert or remove "arbitrary data" emerged as Szabo's primary concern. Regulators could mandate that network participants alter blockchain content. This scenario would undermine Bitcoin's core promise of immutable record-keeping.

The Ordinals and Runes ControversySzabo's comments connect to ongoing debates within the Bitcoin development community. The discussion revolves around non-financial content stored on the blockchain through Ordinals, Runes, and BRC-20 transactions. These protocols enable users to embed images, videos, and audio files directly onto the Bitcoin network.

Bitcoin Core and Bitcoin Knots represent two competing visions for the network's future. Bitcoin Knots has gained market share among node validators in recent months. This shift reflects growing dissatisfaction with Bitcoin Core's approach to network data.

The OP_RETURN function stands at the center of the controversy. Bitcoin Core developers implemented this feature, expanding the capacity for non-financial data on the blockchain. Critics argue that it enables "spam" transactions, which congest the network and inflate storage requirements.

Supporters argue that restricting data types contradicts Bitcoin's philosophy of being censorship-resistant. They view attempts to filter content as antithetical to the network's founding principles. The technical community remains divided on striking a balance between functionality and network efficiency.

Szabo's warnings drew immediate criticism from Bitcoin advocates. Chris Seedor, CEO of Bitcoin seed storage provider Seedor, challenged the assessment. He characterized Szabo's concerns as an overestimation of regulatory capabilities.

Seedor argued that Bitcoin's strength lies in minimizing technical vulnerabilities to coercion. He pointed to other resilient technologies as precedents. Protocols like PGP encryption and Tor remain operational despite government opposition. According to Seedor, these examples demonstrate the limits of regulatory power against decentralized systems.

Key Takeaways
Is there pressure on Solana’s price?
A Solana whale recently exited a $4.71 million position at a loss, lending weight to the bearish pressure on the altcoin. 

Are SOL’s metrics leaning bearish too?
Yes, raising questions about whether Solana’s demand zone can continue to absorb this selling pressure.

Solana’s (SOL) price action has taken a big hit lately. At the time of writing, the altcoin’s large players seemed to be aggressively accumulating short positions at its trading price.

For instance – Whale DYzF92 dumped 33,366 SOL — valued at $4.71 million — despite locking in a $230,000 loss.

According to Lookonchain’s recent reports, the tokens were accumulated roughly seven months ago, making the sell-off a clear signal of shifting sentiment among major holders.

Could the demand zone absorb whales’ bearish pressure?
The whale’s exit adds more damage to an already fragile Solana market environment. According to AMBCrypto’s latest analysis, other large wallets have mirrored the same trend, stacking more short positions and signalling expectations of a near-term downturn.

In fact, CryptoQuant’s Spot average order size data hinted at a surging number of whale orders around the current trade. And, with the positions’ distribution metrics indicating short positions’ dominance, most of the accumulated orders may be likely from Solana bears.

The coordinated whale activity has raised the question – Will this surge in short orders push SOL lower, or will the demand zone continue to hold the line?

On the daily chart, Solana’s price has been testing a well-defined demand zone around $14o – A strategic price level where buyers could step in consistently. The zone had previously triggered relief bounces, making it a critical battleground between bulls and bears.

If this zone absorbs whale-driven selling again, SOL could maintain its structure. However, if it fails, the downside could accelerate.

Long/Short ratio and ETF inflows signal growing bearish momentum
Additionally, Solana’s long/short ratio dropped below 1 too. Such a shift signifies clear short positions’ dominance as more traders may be betting on declining prices, rather than a bullish recovery.

A ratio below 1 often reflects a market leaning towards fear or cautious positioning. In Solana’s case, it would align perfectly with recent whale behaviour – Reinforcing its bearish indicators.

At the same time, shrinking ETF inflows also send a cautionary signal to the anticipated reversal. Despite recording positive inflows over the last 24 hours, the overall trend of Solana has been steadily declining over the past few days.

Diminishing institutional interest at a time when the price action needs it is a cautionary sign to the token’s long-term holders.

Despite the current bias, Solana has a history of surprising short sellers. Any strong reaction from the demand zone could trigger a temporary short squeeze.

For now, traders and investors are keenly watching whether bulls can reclaim control of the zone or if whales will dictate the next move for SOL.

Summarize this article with:

As tension rises in the market, Bitcoin is about to cross a critical technical threshold : the “death cross”. This signal, feared by traders, occurs at a pivotal moment, at the intersection of a 25 % correction and an uncertain macroeconomic climate. While some see it as a classic bearish indicator, others recall it coincided with market lows. In this context, certainties waver, and each candlestick becomes a test for investor morale.

In brief

Bitcoin is approaching a “death cross,” a bearish technical signal feared by both traditional and crypto investors.
Despite its negative reputation, previous “death crosses” observed since 2023 have all coincided with local lows marking rebounds.
The market has corrected by 25 % since its October peak, bringing BTC below its annual entry price of $93,507.
The end of the US government shutdown, far from calming markets, triggered a new wave of decline, similar to a previous cycle in 2019.

The death cross signal : bearish indicator or turning point ?
Just a month after reaching a historic high above $126,000, BTC has dropped nearly 25 %, temporarily wiping out all of its gains since the start of the year.

Data from Glassnode reveal that short and long-term trend indicators are about to cross downward, a phenomenon known as a “death cross”. This configuration, where the 50-day moving average (MA50) falls below the 200-day moving average (MA200), is generally seen as a bearish signal.

Bitcoin’s 50-day moving average at $110,669 is now about to cross below the 200-day moving average at $110,459. This dynamic is often feared as it reflects weakening short-term momentum against the underlying trend.

However, historical data from the past two years challenges this pessimistic reading. Since the start of the 2023 bull cycle, each occurrence of a death cross has marked a local bottom rather than a prolonged collapse. Here are the previous noted cases :

September 2023 : the death cross coincided with a technical floor around $25,000 ;

August 2024 : amid the yen carry trade crisis, Bitcoin bounced back after hitting $49,000 ;

April 2025 : in a context of uncertainties related to Trump’s tariff policies, BTC briefly fell below $75,000 before rising again ;

November 2025 : the Bitcoin price flirts with $94,000, and some analysts already see the beginnings of a new rebound just before the expected crossover.

This fourth crossover could once again play the role of a “bull trap” rather than a harbinger of a crash.

The fragile balance of the market
The current situation is not just a technical reading. The macroeconomic context acts as a catalyst for this volatility.

The end of the US government shutdown, which occurred on November 12 after 43 days of halt, paradoxically triggered a 10 % drop in BTC within a few days. This type of reaction had already been observed in January 2019 when Bitcoin declined by 9 % in the five days following the resumption of government activities.

Meanwhile, another factor weighs on the upward momentum : profit-taking behaviors among whales. It is not a panic movement but a classic pattern of the end of a bull cycle.

Such a gradual increase reflects growing distribution pressure from older holders, a typical pattern of profit-taking at the cycle’s end, and not a sudden exit by whales. This nuance is essential because it shows the observed movements are less related to a confidence crisis and more to tactical risk management by experienced investors.

As explained Matt Hougan, CIO of Bitwise, “the fundamentals remain strong… I believe 2026 will be a good year”.

In the medium term, this combination of factors raises questions about the validity of the traditional four-year crypto cycle. Despite broader institutional adoption, the rise of Bitcoin ETFs and a Trump administration seen as pro-crypto, the market shows signs of fragility. To succeed, the market will first have to navigate this phase of instability.

Shiba Inu has now been added to the  “Green List” of pre-approved crypto assets for Japan. This puts the token alongside Bitcoin and Ethereum and sets the token for possible tax relief.

Shiba Inu Gets Green List Approval In Japan
Japan’s Financial Services Agency (FSA) has added Shiba Inu to its Green List. The move places SHIB as one of the recognized digital assets in the country. This comes when the government is reportedly considering slashing its crypto capital gains tax rate from 55% to 20%.

$SHIB has officially joined Japan’s “Green List,” standing beside $BTC and $ETH.

A proposed tax drop from 55% → 20% could make this a huge catalyst.

— Shib (@Shibtoken) November 17, 2025

Currently, Japanese crypto traders must report their gains as miscellaneous income. But under the FSA’s new framework, profits from 105 approved assets could soon be taxed as a flat rate. That could happen as early as 2026.

The approval of Shiba Inu also comes after assessment from Japan’s regulators. Compliance with standards by SHIB earns it a position that puts it next to Bitcoin, Ethereum, and just 27 other crypto assets.

The token fulfilled this condition since it is listed on at least eight licensed exchanges. Usually, he minimum needed to be considered is three.

The Green List was created in 2022 to simplify the approval process for trusted tokens. Inclusion on the list puts the meme token as a credible crypto project both for regulators and institutional investors.

The regulatory commission has been making some changes to its crypto ecosystem. The FSA last month put forward a proposal for a legal framework in the classification of crypto assets like traditional securities. This would make insider trading criminal and make market operations more transparent.

SHIB Set to Benefit From 20% Tax Reform
The country’s planned tax reform could lower costs for crypto traders. This change would help Japan match other developed countries. For instance, Germany does not tax long-term crypto gains at all. 

Meanwhile, there are claims that U.S President Trump could remove the tax for crypto firms in the country

Finance Minister Katsunobu Kato has stated that regulators are almost done finalizing the policy. In other economic news, Japan’s government announced a $113 billion stimulus package. This move would see tax removed totally for some industries. These could lower living costs for citizens in the country.

Meanwhile, a team member of the meme coin shared that the Shiba Inu project is targeting some  Asian markets. The team is especially looking into South Korea and China.

Ethereum has once again fallen under pressure as its price slipped toward the critical $3,000 mark. After failing to sustain momentum above $3,250, ETH extended its decline and is now showing signs of continued weakness across lower timeframes.

Bitcoin price slid to its lowest level in over six months on Monday, weighed down by a wave of liquidations and ongoing outflows from its spot ETFs.

Summary

Bitcoin price is down over 10% in the last 7 days.
Over $240 million has been liquidated from BTC futures market.
Bitcoin has confirmed a death cross on the daily chart.

According to data from crypto.news, the world’s largest crypto asset was trading around $95k last check on Nov. 17, morning Asian time. It fell below $94,000 support to an intraday low of $93,029 earlier in the session, the lowest recorded since April 12 this year. 

At its current price, Bitcoin (BTC) is down 10.6% in the past 7 days and 24.6% below its year-to-date and all-time high of $126k reached about a month ago.

Bitcoin price continued its downtrend on Monday as derivatives traders appear to be de-risking their positions amid decreasing odds that the Federal Reserve will announce another rate cut this year. Such a shift in expectations tends to spark risk-off sentiment across broader markets, including crypto.

According to the CME FedWatch Tool, the odds of a 25 basis point rate cut in December have fallen to 43.9%, while a separate prediction market on Polymarket shows the probability at just 46%, sharply down from over 80% at the start of November.

In the past 24 hours, around $243 million worth of positions were liquidated across the Bitcoin futures market, with long positions making up the majority at $136.6 million.

Major liquidation events unfold when leveraged positions are forcibly closed by the exchange due to insufficient margin, which can lead to cascading sell pressure, like the one seen last month when over $20 billion was flushed out of the market.

Waning demand from institutional investors has also been another major factor weighing on Bitcoin’s recent price action. The 12 spot Bitcoin ETFs in the United States have recorded more than $2.3 billion in net outflows over the past two weeks, data from SoSoValue show.

Sustained capital flight from the spot ETF market is a sign of weak confidence among large investors and may continue to pressure Bitcoin’s price over this week, especially if broader macro uncertainty persists.

Bitcoin price confirmed a death cross
The daily chart shows that Bitcoin price has confirmed a death cross, a very bearish pattern in technical analysis that forms when the 50-day simple moving average crosses below the 200-day simple moving average. Historically, Bitcoin has often seen extended downside pressure in the months following the appearance of such a pattern on the chart.

Bitcoin price also closed its weekly candle below the 50-day exponential moving average last week for the first time since August 2023, a sign that momentum may be shifting in favor of the bears.

The Aroon Up indicator stood at 92.86% while the Aroon Down was at 0%, further confirming that bears were in control of the market.

For now, the $93,770 to $94,000 region looks like the next key support zone for Bitcoin, a drop below which could trigger losses toward the $90,000 psychological support or even lower.

VISA Transactions Could Soon Flow Through Ripple’s Interledger ProtocolA recent report, highlighted by renowned crypto observer SMQKE, reveals a potential breakthrough in payments infrastructure that VISA transactions may soon be integrated with Ripple’s Interledger Protocol (ILP). 

Therefore, this development could mark a significant milestone in bridging traditional financial systems with blockchain-based payment networks.

Ripple’s ILP, a protocol designed for seamless, cross-ledger payments, enables instant transfers across different payment networks without relying on intermediaries. 

By connecting traditional financial rails like VISA to ILP, financial institutions could achieve faster, more efficient, and cost-effective transaction processing. The integration promises to reduce the friction and delays that often plague cross-border payments, which currently rely on legacy systems such as SWIFT.

The report indicates that VISA could leverage Ripple’s Interledger Protocol to enable near-instant, transparent payments across banks, digital wallets, and financial networks, offering faster fund access, lower fees, and a seamless payment experience for businesses and consumers.

Notably, Ripple’s Interledger Protocol is built for seamless interoperability, enabling real-time connections across diverse ledgers. This positions VISA to modernize its payment infrastructure while maintaining regulatory compliance and operational reliability, bridging traditional finance and digital assets.

Beyond speed and efficiency, integrating Ripple’s ILP with VISA could bridge traditional finance and blockchain, creating a seamless hybrid ecosystem. This move could drive mainstream adoption of digital currencies, positioning ILP as a key infrastructure for global payments.

Therefore, the report highlights the rising convergence of traditional finance and decentralized networks. Integrating VISA transactions with Ripple’s ILP could usher in a new era of cross-border payments, delivering unmatched speed, transparency, and scalability.

XRP Eyes $5–$8 as Strong Support Zone Bolsters Institutional ConfidenceAccording to prominent market analyst Crypto Patel, XRP has established a decisive support zone between $1.85 and $2, signaling a robust foundation for both retail and institutional investors. This range, Patel notes, represents a strong liquidity and accumulation base, creating a favorable environment for potential price expansion in the months ahead.

Source: Crypto PatelXRP’s $1.85–$2 support zone is proving pivotal with the current price being $2.27. Historically, areas of high liquidity and concentrated institutional accumulation absorb selling pressure and anchor markets during volatility. 

As Crypto Patel notes, XRP’s consolidation here reflects strong investor confidence and positions the coin for potential structural growth.

XRP continues its bullish momentum across multiple timeframes, with strong trading volumes and clear institutional accumulation signaling strategic positioning. Analyst Patel suggests that if the $1.85–$2 support holds, XRP could see a structural surge toward $5–$8, representing substantial upside potential.

Therefore, XRP’s $1.85–$2 support zone is more than a floor, it signals strong institutional backing, deep liquidity, and bullish momentum. If trends hold, a structural move toward $5–$8 is well-supported by market dynamics and investor activity, reinforcing XRP’s upward trajectory.

ConclusionIntegrating VISA transactions with Ripple’s Interledger Protocol could transform payments, combining traditional network reliability with blockchain’s speed, transparency, and interoperability. This leap promises a faster, more efficient ecosystem and marks a major step toward a truly connected global financial landscape.

On the other hand, XRP’s $1.85–$2 support zone highlights strong institutional interest and deep liquidity. With bullish momentum intact, this level not only defends current valuations but also positions XRP for a potential surge toward $5–$8.

The digital assets sector remains weak as Bitcoin erases 2025 gains after its latest dip toward the $93,000 vicinity. While altcoins display substantial bearishness, ASTER stayed above the $1 psychological mark after gaining more than 6% the last 24 hours. The altcoin's decouple comes as the perpetual decentralized exchange launches its largest trading competition.

The Dogecoin price recently spiraled lower, mirroring Bitcoin’s sharp fall below $100k and the broader crypto market fall. The mood shifted from optimism to caution almost overnight as whale activity picked up, igniting a violent sell-off. A staggering $700 million DOGE flowed from large holders, intensifying downward momentum and sparking jitters among retail traders. 

As prices smashed through the crucial $0.16466 level, technical alarms became undeniable, confirming a bearish break. With nerves stretched, investors are now questioning: will DOGE find its footing soon, or will it go deeper into lows? If you are one of them, then this price analysis is a must-read for you. 

DOGE Price AnalysisChecking DOGE’s four-hour chart, the action paints a tale of persistence and pressure. The Doge price stumbled under the 78.6% Fibonacci retracement at $0.16466 and now trades at $0.1619, marking a daily dip of 0.69% and a week-long slide of 10.56%. Successively, technical signals remain bleak, with the RSI dipping to 45.99 and hugging oversold territory.

That being said, the support now lines up at the October low of $0.1525. Should bears overpower this level, the next landing spot sits at $0.14. Each retest of these lines has increased risk for bulls, as stop-losses below the Fibonacci support fuel further downward momentum. The 200-day SMA, high above at $0.20925, justifies how far DOGE’s price has retreated from its medium-term trend.

For price watchers hoping for relief, keep your eyes on $0.171. This point marks the best chance for a bounce. A daily close above can trigger short-term bullish momentum and drive a swift run toward $0.18766. However, unless buyers flood in to reclaim lost ground, the bias stays firmly bearish.

If the next support gives way, downside could escalate rapidly to $0.14. Contrarily, a breakout above $0.171 could shift sentiment and invite quick gains back into the range. When to expect targets? The speed of moves in DOGE tends to surprise, but based on current momentum, a break to $0.1525 or a rebound to $0.171 could play out in the next 3 to 5 sessions.

FAQsWhere is Dogecoin’s next support if selling continues?

The next major support is $0.1525. If that fails, DOGE could test $0.14 quickly.

Can Dogecoin price rally soon?

Relief depends on reclaiming $0.171 with a daily close. Without strong buying, rallies may be short-lived.

Is Dogecoin oversold now?

Yes, the RSI indicates oversold conditions, but there’s no bullish divergence yet to hint at a reversal.
