Doomsday for Bitcoin? 4th Death Cross Approaches as Prices Teeter on $90K Edge

Posted on by Olumide Adesina

Bitcoin is about to experience its fourth death cross in the current market cycle,  currently trading at $95,800, down more than 20% from its recent peak of $126,000. The previous death crosses occurred in September 2023, August 2024, and April 2025, all of which were preceded by significant rallies of 75–213%.

 

Analysts anticipated a possible decline below $90,000 due to this technical pattern, where the 50-day moving average crosses below the 200-day. However, historical data indicates that this could be a capitulation bottom and prime-time buying opportunity before a rebound to $145,000.

Traders are holding their breath as Bitcoin threatens to fall below $90,000 despite seeing impressive ETF inflows. On-chain data indicates that Bitcoin is getting close to the fourth death cross of the cycle, which denotes a bottom for the asset, despite the unsavory price performance. Bitcoin’s Death Cross Offers Consumers a Buying Opportunity:

According to on-chain data, the price of Bitcoin is getting close to a death cross in the next few days, with the 50-day moving average crossing below the long-term moving average. In an X post, CoinDesk Senior Analyst James Van Straten emphasized the forming trend, pointing out that the forming death cross will be Bitcoin’s fourth in this cycle. Contrary to expectations, past death crosses have indicated a significant bottom for the price of Bitcoin.  Death crosses typically signal bearish momentum, which means that short-term trends are weakening relative to long-term trends.

Contrary to expectations, past death crosses have indicated a significant bottom for the price of Bitcoin. Death crosses typically signify bearish momentum, which means that short-term trends are weakening relative to long-term trends. Examples of death crosses for Bitcoin include September 2023, August 2024, and April 2025.

Bitcoin bottomed immediately following the death cross with Straten, indicating that the impending death cross is a buy signal for investors, according to an aerial view of the charts.

XRPC ETF Volumes Plunge again as XRP Extends Misery to Sixth Straight Loss

Posted on by Olumide Adesina

Canary the XRP ETF (XRPC) saw a decline in trading volume on day two, extending XRP’s losing streak to six sessions on Sunday.

 

The broader cryptocurrency market plummeted this week due to fading expectations of a December Fed rate cut. With net outflows of $1.11 billion during the reporting week ending November 14, the BTC-spot ETF reflected the market sentiment.

XRP experienced a dramatic reversal despite the upcoming launch of 21Shares, Bitwise, CoinShares, and Franklin Templeton XRP-spot ETFs in the following week.

XRP made a strong impression with $245 million in net inflows and $59 million in trading volume on its first day of trading, but by Friday, volumes dropped to $26 million, impacting demand for XRP on Saturday, November 15. Outflows from BTC-spot ETFs and the broader sell-off in the crypto market likely affected institutional demand.

However, with the introduction of Bitwise and Franklin Templeton’s XRP-spot ETFs, demand for XRP could increase significantly in the upcoming week.

The Bitwise XRP ETF is scheduled to go live on November 19 or 20. With no BlackRock (BLK) iShares XRP Trust, analysts believe Franklin Templeton and Bitwise will dominate the XRP-spot ETF market. Strong inflows could potentially reverse recent losses.

Although robust ETF inflows are promising, they do not guarantee price appreciation, despite optimistic forecasts. Ethereum-based ETFs experienced net outflows for just one month between November 2024 and October 2025, despite generating approximately $14.7 billion in total net inflows during that period. Due to supply-side factors and broader market pressures, Ethereum did not sustain a price increase despite these large inflows. This illustrates that significant inflows alone might not be enough to drive consistent price gains.

Overall, a scenario of $600 million in monthly inflows is plausible and has precedents in other crypto ETF markets, but its direct effect on XRP’s price would depend on various external factors. ETF demand is just one among many variables influencing long-term price trends, and actual outcomes may differ significantly from model predictions.

Cathie Wood’s Bold Bet: ARK Invest Loads Up on BitMine Amid $11 Billion ETH Treasury Surge

Posted on by Olumide Adesina

ARK Invest has expanded its cryptocurrency holdings by acquiring $5.8 million in shares of BitMine Immersion Technologies and $2.9 million in shares across several ETFs, indicating ongoing confidence in digital asset infrastructure.

The ARK Fintech Innovation ETF purchased 18,089 BitMine shares, contributing to a total investment of $6 million, with additional funds that acquired over 151,000 shares.

 

ARK’s ETFs also purchased 75,515 shares of Bullish for $2.91 million despite a 6.19 percent decline in BitMine’s stock price. This activity follows ARK’s recent $46 million investment in Circle shares, demonstrating a comprehensive approach to cryptocurrency-related stocks, particularly given BitMine’s Ether treasury, which exceeds $11 billion.

ARK Invest has been actively increasing its positions in stocks connected to cryptocurrencies, with total investments in key holdings surpassing $50 million. Daily trade disclosures from the company reveal a pattern of buying during price dips. For instance, when Circle’s stock price fell below $90, ARK purchased 542,269 Circle shares over two days, totaling $46 million.

Experts believe that ARK’s long-term optimism about blockchain technologies is reflected in these strategies, with Cathie Wood emphasizing the revolutionary potential of digital assets in financial innovation. These purchases align with broader market trends; data from ARK’s filings indicate an increase in institutional interest in crypto-linked stocks despite short-term volatility.

BitMine’s transition from mining to holding over 3.5 million Ether, valued at more than $11 billion, enhances its stability and growth prospects, similar to tactics employed by prominent players in the industry. Building on this momentum, ARK purchased 242,347 BitMine shares for $8.9 million the day before, when the stock price fell below $37. These transactions increased exposure while distributing risk across ARKF, ARKW, and ARKK.

Market observers, including those from Bloomberg, note that ARK’s strategy contrasts with broader tech stock sell-offs, evidenced by its recent $30 million divestiture of Tesla shares to reallocate towards cryptocurrency ventures. Both BitMine and Bullish, which closed at $34.40 and $38.48, respectively, faced pressure with declines of nearly 6 percent and 6.19 percent at the time of purchase. However, slight increases in after-hours trading suggest strong investor sentiment.

Ripple’s Post-Swell Alert: XRP Holders Beware – Is Your Wallet at Risk of Total Wipeout?

Posted on by Olumide Adesina

Leading financial stakeholders from around the world attended the Ripple Swell conference earlier this month, which was a huge success.

A historic $500 million funding deal from Pantera Capital, Brevan Howard, Fortress Investment Group, and Marshall Wace was announced during the event, raising the company’s valuation to $40 billion.

Nevertheless, con artists were working behind the scenes to take advantage of gullible investors while Ripple hosted one of the most significant events in the cryptocurrency industry

XRP Eyes $5 Target Soon as Institutional Access Expands

Ripple confirmed that it observed this malicious activity both during and after the Swell incident. Specifically, the company highlighted that it encountered many fake YouTube live streams during and after Ripple Swell. Scammers often exploit major events or developments involving the company.
Several major moments in Ripple’s history, such as its partial court victory over the US SEC, have been associated with this malicious activity.

Ripple urges its community to avoid falling for such schemes, emphasizing that all XRP “giveaways” are scams.

The company reiterated in its latest announcement that it will never ask users for XRP in connection with promotions, giveaways, or special events such as the Swell conference.

Several executives at Ripple have publicly denounced these fake giveaway schemes as outright scams, and the company has consistently issued similar warnings on its official X account.

Ripple cautioned users about the rise of fake YouTube livestreams impersonating Ripple executives, which encouraged viewers to participate in supposed giveaways by sending XRP to a designated address. Earlier this month, RippleX, the division focused on the XRPL, also warned about deepfake scams targeting unsuspecting community members.

XRP Crashes falls faster than gravity. despite XRPC ETF’s $245M Inflow Frenzy: What’s Driving the Sell-Off?

Posted on by Olumide Adesina

XRP faced significant pressure on Friday, reaching its lowest point since November 10 after experiencing four consecutive days of decline. Despite the launch of the first spot XRP ETF, the sell-off continued unabated. The price of XRP has dropped nearly 40% from its peak this year and remains entrenched in a deep bear market.

XRP Finds Its Footing as ETF Buzz and Fed Support Lift Market Confidence

This decline coincided with the Securities and Exchange Commission’s (SEC) approval of the Canary XRP ETF (XRPC), which had a successful debut with first-day trading volume exceeding $58 million.

Additionally, Wall Street’s interest in the fourth-largest cryptocurrency has attracted substantial investments, and many more XRP ETFs are expected to be launched on the DTCC platform in the coming weeks. This includes offerings from firms such as 21Shares, Franklin Templeton, Invesco, and Bitwise.

Several factors have contributed to the volatility in XRP’s price. The recent downturn reflects a broader crash in the cryptocurrency market, significant declines for Bitcoin, and most altcoins. In the last day, Ethereum dropped 10% to $3,125, while Bitcoin’s price fell to $97,200. Other popular tokens, including Cardano (ADA), Dogecoin (DOGE), Solana (SOL), and Binance Coin (BNB), have also suffered.

Overall, investors have lost more than $1 trillion this year as the total market capitalization of all cryptocurrencies declined by more than 5.4% in the past day,  down to $3.26 trillion.

This atmosphere of fear is affecting XRP’s price as well. Data shows that the Crypto Fear and Greed Index has fallen to the fear zone at 22 points. Additionally, the futures market reflects this fearful sentiment, with XRP’s open interest in futures contracts dropping from over $10 billion earlier this year to $3.65 billion. This decline suggests that investors are using less leverage when wagering on the coin.
