ETH gained 1% to trade near $3,180, BNB remained steady at $930, and SOL rose 2% to $142. Among top movers, UNI, IMX, and ENA each climbed about 4%. ZEC also briefly bounced above $700 on Sunday after Cobie commented on the fundamentals behind its recent rally. Market sentiment stayed deeply negative, with the Crypto Fear & Greed Index holding in Extreme Fear at 14 after touching 10 on Friday. On the macro side, JPMorgan identified roughly $94,000 as a key Bitcoin support level based on mining costs and projected potential upside toward $170,000. Institutional activity also made headlines, as Harvard reportedly added about $350 million of Bitcoin through IBIT in Q3—an increase of 257% from its June filing—while BlackRock’s BUIDL fund expanded to Binance and BNB.

Market expert says that past death crosses were fake because Bitcoin stayed above the EMA50, unlike today's breakdown that confirms real bearish pressure.

Corporations have quietly amassed nearly 7% of the Bitcoin supply, as analysts note a growing institutional influence on the crypto market’s liquidity. Corporate Bitcoin holdings continue to climb, but treasury executives argue the trend is strengthening, not weakening, decentralization across the network. Despite increasing concerns about concentrated Bitcoin (BTC) ownership, emerging corporate treasury firms and new institutional players are contributing to broader distribution across the ecosystem, according to several executives speaking at Bitcoin Amsterdam 2025. “At the end of the day, what we are doing is really decentralizing Bitcoin. It doesn’t seem like that, but it is the case through the demand that we provide in the market,” said Alexander Laizet, board director of Bitcoin strategy at Capital B. Read more

With just under 2 million Bitcoin that will ever be mined from here on out, Bitcoin’s “real story” is about to unfold. Bitcoin’s total circulating supply has just crossed 95% of its 21 million hard supply cap — a massive milestone baked in nearly 17 years ago when creator Satoshi Nakamoto mined the genesis block on Jan. 3, 2009. With 19.95 million Bitcoin now in circulation, this leaves just 2.05 million Bitcoin to be mined. The question is, what does this mean for the future of Bitcoin and its price?  Speaking to Cointelegraph, Thomas Perfumo, a global economist at crypto exchange Kraken, said it’s an important milestone in the Bitcoin narrative, because annual supply inflation is currently around 0.8% per annum, and hard money “requires a credible narrative for people to confidently adopt a currency as a store of value.” Read more

Adam Back says Bitcoin faces no meaningful quantum threat for at least the next 20–40 years, adding that NIST-approved post-quantum standards can be adopted in time. Adam Back, the cryptographer and cypherpunk cited in the Bitcoin white paper, said Bitcoin is unlikely to face a meaningful threat from quantum computing for at least two to four decades. Responding to an X user on Nov. 15 who asked whether Bitcoin (BTC) is at risk, Back wrote that “probably not for 20–40 years,” adding that there are already post-quantum encryption standards approved by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) that Bitcoin could implement “long before cryptographically relevant quantum computers arrive.” The discussion began with a user posting a video of Canadian-American venture capitalist and entrepreneur Chamath Palihapitiya, who predicted that the quantum threat to Bitcoin would become a reality in two to five years. He noted that to break SHA-256 — the encryption standard that Bitcoin relies on — quantum c...
