🔥 Daily Bitcoin News: A Stormy End to November in the Crypto Markets
DYOR, this is not financial advice — just today’s pulse of the market
1. Bitcoin Stabilizes Around $92,000: Fed Optimism vs. Relentless ETF Outflows
Bitcoin caught a small breath overnight, climbing to $92,471, a mild 0.5% gain in the past 24 hours. Market cap is approaching $1.85 trillion, and trading volume pushed above $42 billion. But the calm is deceptive.
November saw a 36% crash — from a $126,000 peak down to $82,000, wiping out nearly $1 trillion in total crypto market value.
What triggered the storm?
Fed signaling higher-for-longer interest rates,
A record $3.7 billion in spot Bitcoin ETF outflows,
The $50 million Upbit hack in South Korea, which hurt Asian liquidity and triggered cross-market selloffs.
On the bright side, markets now price a 78% chance of a 25 bps Fed cut in December — a move analysts believe could lift BTC back toward $95,000.
Fear & Greed Index sits at 25 (Extreme Fear), yet whale wallets quietly increased their BTC holdings by 6% this month.
Short-term outlook: possible rise to $93,019 tomorrow, consolidating around $92,538 through the weekend.
Long-term: Analysts see a potential $112,000–$118,000 rally by late 2025 if ETF inflows return.
The market feels like chess: macro easing on one side, hacks and outflows on the other.
2. Metaplanet Goes “Full MicroStrategy”: Japan Firm Buys Bitcoin With $130M in New Debt
One of today’s most bullish narratives comes from Tokyo.
Metaplanet, often called the Japanese MicroStrategy, has issued $130 million in bonds and pumped the capital directly into Bitcoin. Their holdings now exceed 1,200 BTC (valued at ~$110M). Shares surged 12% on the Tokyo Stock Exchange.
CEO Simon Gerovich says:
“Bitcoin is the best inflation hedge; buying the dip is how generational wealth is built.”
Institutions worldwide are joining the wave:
Texas and Harvard University have exposure to BTC ETFs,
Abu Dhabi tripled its holdings to $517 million.
But risks remain: CME halted futures trading yesterday after a CyrusOne cooling malfunction shut down critical infrastructure — analysts warn of a volatility shock when markets reopen.
Metaplanet’s move summarizes the moment: where retail panics, institutions accumulate.
3. XRP Spot ETFs Outshine Bitcoin: $644M in Inflows Signal Altcoin Rotation
In a surprise twist, XRP spot ETFs recorded $644M in inflows this month, outpacing Bitcoin and Ether. DLNews reports institutions are rotating capital into XRP thanks to its regulatory clarity after Ripple’s court victory.
XRP price popped 15%, and Bitcoin dominance slipped.
The altcoin sector is heating up:
Hyperliquid (HYPE) up 35% YTD,
Kaspa (KAS) and Monad (MON) rallied over 20% in 24 hours,
Stellar Foundation joined Chainlink’s SCALE program to bolster institutional-grade infrastructure.
With over $4.7B in total ETF outflows, the market is redistributing liquidity — and Bitcoin no longer holds the entire spotlight.
4. “Bitcoin for America Act”: U.S. Debates Making BTC a National Reserve Asset
A political earthquake is brewing.
The “Bitcoin for America Act” has been introduced in Congress, seeking to classify Bitcoin as an official U.S. reserve asset. The Trump transition team is reportedly supportive.
Why now?
The U.S. paid $104B in interest in October alone. Annualized, that’s $1.2 trillion — larger than national defense spending.
Bitcoinist reports that policymakers see BTC as a potential long-term hedge against debt-driven inflation.
Parallel to this, a global crime investigation revealed $28B in illicit funds flowing through Binance and OKX — including North Korean hackers and pig-butchering rings.
Strike CEO Jack Mallers says JPMorgan shut his accounts for “suspicious activity,” sparking a new debate on debanking.
Fortune warns Bitcoin could revisit $70,000 in a macro shock — but if the Fed cuts, a run toward $100,000 becomes more likely.
Bitcoin has officially entered the political arena — and the stakes have never been higher.
5. Whale Transfers & On-Chain Metrics: Accumulation Continues in the Shadows
A major unknown wallet just moved 15,000 BTC (~$1.4B) to Coinbase. Analysts say whales are buying dips while short-term holders capitulate.
CryptoQuant CEO Ki Young Ju notes:
“Metrics are turning bearish, but liquidity remains the key driver for upside.”
Other signals:
BTC outflows from exchanges increased,
Retail sentiment weak,
Fear & Greed glued at Extreme Fear.
Meme and L2 tokens mixed:
SOON +5.9%,
REKT +45%,
DeFi sector –1.95%.
Solana-based Bitcoin Hyper (HYPER) raised $28M by promising BTC-like security with Solana-grade speed.
Alibaba’s AI predicts XRP/SOL/ADA could rally into 2025 — adding fuel to speculation.
History repeats: whales accumulate in silence, retail panics loudly.
6. November Recap & Outlook: Could Bitcoin Hit $151,000 in 2025?
The month in numbers:
Peak: $126,000
Bottom: $82,000
Cause: deleveraging + ETF outflows
InvestingHaven forecasts a $77,000–$155,000 trading range for 2025.
CoinCodex expects BTC to remain between $92,041–$92,538 this week.
Bitget warns the CME shutdown could trigger a volatility spike.
Other signals:
Fed Payments Conference debated stablecoins + AI,
China’s DeepSeek AI predicts Dogecoin could hit $0.50,
The Block reports Bitroot’s parallel EVM architecture is redefining blockchain performance.
Overall: Bitcoin is emerging from the storm. Historically, December averages +4.75% returns — giving bulls a little hope.
