From net flows to perp funding, the metrics that explain this bull cycle better than “number go up.” Bitcoin (BTC) price movements are now being pulled by off-chain flows and leverage, not just by classic on-chain signals. Since January 2024, when US spot Bitcoin ETFs launched, the variables that explain why BTC rips or dumps […]

On Nov. 26, Nasdaq’s International Securities Exchange quietly triggered one of the most important developments in Bitcoin’s financial integration.

On the surface, the proposal looks procedural. […]

Texas has moved public money into Bitcoin exposure, buying $5 million worth of shares in a regulated Bitcoin exchange-traded fund. Related Reading: Bitcoin Creator Somehow Becomes ‘Poor’ By Losing $41 Billion Without Saying A Word According to reports, the state’s purchase was made on November 20, 2025, and it used the BlackRock iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT) to gain price exposure without immediately holding the cryptocurrency itself. The state set aside a total allocation of $10 million for its new Strategic Bitcoin Reserve. Lee Bratcher, who leads the Texas Blockchain Council, confirmed the state’s crypto purchase on X. State Uses ETF As Interim Step Reports have disclosed that officials chose the ETF route as a temporary measure while the state puts custody plans in place. The IBIT shares give Texas a stake that tracks Bitcoin’s market moves. Based on reports, the entry price equated to roughly $87,000 per BTC at the time of the buy. The buy represents half of the total allocation, leaving $5 million still available for future moves. TEXAS BOUGHT THE DIP! Texas becomes the FIRST state to purchase Bitcoin with a $10M investment on Nov. 20th at an approximately $87k basis! Congratulations to Comptroller @KHancock4TX and the dedicated investments team at Texas Treasury who have been watching this market… pic.twitter.com/wsMqI9HrPD — Lee ₿ratcher (@lee_bratcher) November 25, 2025 The move follows legislation passed earlier in the year. According to public records, the reserve program was created by Senate Bill 21, signed in June 2025. The law authorizes a capped budget for the reserve and sets conditions for what assets qualify. Reports have disclosed that Bitcoin met the criteria laid out in the measure, prompting the initial allocation. What Officials Say And What Comes Next According to state officials, the purchase is meant as a hedge and a way to diversify long-term holdings. An RFP process is expected to pick a custodian, with officials planning to transfer from ETF positions to direct custody once systems are ready. The request for proposals is slated for early 2026, based on public statements. Analysts noted the distinction between ETF shares and direct ownership. ETF holdings provide price exposure; they do not give the state direct control over on-chain Bitcoin wallets. That control would come only after the state completes its custody procurement and shifts assets into cold storage or similar solutions. Possible Broader Effects Market observers say the purchase is notable because it marks one of the first instances of a US state formally placing public funds into Bitcoin exposure. The amount is small relative to broader markets, yet symbolic. It may prompt other states to consider similar reserve strategies, especially where lawmakers favor diversification. Related Reading: Hamas Victims Sue Binance And CZ — Accusations Of Terror Financing Rock Crypto World Transparency And Oversight According to public filings, the state will publish details of the holdings and any custody plan updates. Oversight mechanisms built into the law require regular reporting, and the remaining $5 million allocation must follow the same rules before it is used. That reporting will be watched closely by lawmakers, taxpayers, and market watchers. The buying decision was made amid wide debate over how government bodies should handle crypto assets. Texas plans to move carefully, using regulated products first and then moving toward self-custody when the proper safeguards and vendors are chosen. Featured image from Pexels, chart from TradingView

Bitcoin fell sharply in recent days, and veteran holders barely blinked while many newer investors showed clear signs of panic. Related Reading: Bitcoin Creator Somehow Becomes ‘Poor’ By Losing $41 Billion Without Saying A Word According to crypto commentator Anthony Pompliano, drops of 30% or more are part of Bitcoin’s history — they have happened 21 times over the last decade and tend to occur about once every one and a half years. Reports have disclosed that recent selling has pushed the token to lows around $82,000 during US trading. “So Bitcoiners are used to this,” Pompliano said. “Now, who’s not used to this are the people who are coming from Wall Street. They’re not used to this type of volatility.” Veterans Expect The Swings Pompliano said people who have owned Bitcoin for years treat big swings as normal. He argued that volatility helped create the huge gains seen so far: Bitcoin has risen about 240x over the past decade. He added that a 70% compound annual growth rate over that period is not likely to continue, but that even lower long-term returns — in the 20–35% range — would still beat stocks. “I would be worried if Bitcoin’s volatility drops to zero,” he said, explaining why price swings can be a sign of an active market rather than a flaw. US Markets And Liquidity Strains Played A Role Matthew Sigel, head of digital assets research at VanEck, said the sell-off was mainly a US-session event. He linked the fall to tighter US liquidity and wider credit spreads, which made traders less willing to hold risky positions. Sigel also noted that big spending plans tied to artificial intelligence were colliding with a fragile funding market, creating extra pressure. Around year-end, other market participants face bonus decisions and portfolio reviews, which may add to selling pressure. Volatility Is Climbing Again Analysts at Bitwise and other firms reported that Bitcoin’s volatility has risen in the past two months and was creeping back up to about 60 as of Monday. Jeff Park of Bitwise pointed out that higher volatility can move prices sharply in either direction. Based on reports, Pompliano and others said that volatility is needed for the asset to make large gains over time, and that calm markets would actually be a warning sign for some investors. ETFs Brought More Money — And More Flows Out The arrival of Bitcoin ETFs has made it easier for big brokers’ clients to get exposure without holding coins directly. Still, data from Morningstar’s Bryan Armour shows roughly $4.7 billion left crypto-related ETFs in November. Armour added that while some funds saw outflows, ETFs tied to smaller tokens such as Solana and XRP drew investments during the same period. Related Reading: Kiyosaki Dumps Bitcoin At $90K After Predicting A $250K Moonshot – Here’s Why What Comes Next Is Unclear Experts said predicting the next move is almost impossible because crypto markets remain highly volatile.

Bitcoin has tumbled more than 30% from its all-time high of $126k and is trading around $85,500 after briefly falling to $82K, according to market reports. Traders warn that recent moves by long-term holders are changing how the market reacts to stress. Liquidity has thinned, and that makes price swings larger than usual. Related Reading: Dogecoin Goes Wall Street: Grayscale Confirms Nov. 24 ETF Launch Schiff Issues A Stark Warning According to gold investor Peter Schiff, Bitcoin is “finally having its IPO moment.” He said that when veteran holders turn into sellers, supply at the top of the market rises and future selloffs can become deeper. “This much Bitcoin moving from strong to weak hands not only increases the float, but also means future selloffs will be bigger,” Schiff said on Saturday. His view has been repeated by bearish voices for years, but this time the comment lands against clear on-chain moves and big ETF outflows. Traders note that when confident, long-term holders prune positions near local peaks; when many do it at once, price action often becomes more violent. Some argue that after all these years Bitcoin is finally having its IPO moment now that there’s enough liquidity for the OGs to cash out. I agree, but this much Bitcoin moving from strong to weak hands not only increases the float, but also means future selloffs will be bigger. — Peter Schiff (@PeterSchiff) November 22, 2025 Whale Moves And Major Sales Based on reports, whales and early wallets moved over 400,000 BTC in October, activity linked with large selling pressure. One early investor, Owen Gunden, reportedly liquidated his entire 11,000 BTC stake across October and November. High-profile retail figures also sold: Robert Kiyosaki announced a sale worth roughly $2.25 million, saying he bought when BTC was about $6,000 and sold near $90,000, and that he plans to redeploy proceeds into income businesses. Analysts at Bitfinex point to two key drivers of the recent drop: long-term holder sales and leveraged liquidations in derivatives markets. When margin positions unwind, prices can cascade lower before the market finds support. ETF Flows And Retail Sentiment According to Bloomberg and fund filings, investors pulled nearly $1 billion from Bitcoin ETFs in a single session, the second-largest daily outflow among the group of 12 funds. BlackRock’s IBIT led with $355 million, while Grayscale’s GBTC and Fidelity’s FBTC each saw about $200 million leave. Over the past month, ETF products have recorded roughly $4 billion in net outflows. Citi Research figures cited by market watchers place every $1 billion withdrawn at roughly a 3.4% negative swing in Bitcoin’s price. Still, there was a counter-move: reports show ETFs posted $238 million of inflows yesterday, underlining how flows can reverse quickly.

Grayscale Investments will list spot ETFs for Dogecoin and XRP on the NYSE Arca on November 24, 2025, offering a new way for everyday investors to buy those coins through regular brokerages. Related Reading: Kiyosaki Dumps Bitcoin At $90K After Predicting A $250K Moonshot – Here’s Why According to exchange notices and regulatory filings, the funds will trade under the tickers GDOG for Dogecoin and GXRP for XRP. The listings convert Grayscale’s existing private-placement trusts into publicly traded products. Grayscale Moves To List Dogecoin And XRP Reports have disclosed that both ETFs received approval to be listed, and the paperwork was filed with the US Securities and Exchange Commission. The move brings spot exposure to two smaller, but widely followed, cryptocurrencies into a mainstream vehicle. For many investors, that means access without directly managing wallets or private keys. Grayscale Dogecoin ETF $GDOG approved for listing on NYSE, scheduled to begin trading Monday. Their XRP spot is also launching on Monday. $GLNK coming soon as well, week after I think pic.twitter.com/c6nKUeDrtI — Eric Balchunas (@EricBalchunas) November 21, 2025 Market Activity Up Ahead Of Launch Trading activity in related derivatives climbed in the lead up to the announcement. Dogecoin derivatives volume increased by more than 30% to roughly $7.22 billion, based on exchange data. XRP derivatives surged as well, jumping about 51% to around $12.74 billion. Based on reports, these spikes reflect traders positioning for potential price swings around the ETF debut. Spot ETFs do not promise higher prices, but they do change who can buy the assets. Brokers, retirement plans, and funds that avoid direct crypto custody may now step in. That could affect liquidity in both the tokens and their markets. At the same time, the overall crypto market has seen pressure; reports say the launches come during a roughly six-week downturn. DOGE market cap currently at $21.4 billion. Chart: TradingView Questions Remain Over Demand And Flows Product fees, custody details, and how the trusts convert into ETF shares will shape investor appetite. Past launches of crypto ETFs showed brisk early flows for some products, while others saw muted interest. What matters for prices is not only listings, but inflows and outflows once trading begins. Related Reading: $2 Billion Gone In Minutes: Bitcoin Slide Shakes Crypto World Investors and analysts are likely to watch the first days of trading for clues. High volume and tight spreads would suggest strong demand. Low turnover or wide spreads could signal tepid interest. Based on reports, market participants will also monitor whether the ETFs draw the same sort of speculative trading that has driven derivatives volume in recent days. The listing of both GDOG and GXRP on the same date marks a notable step for mainstream crypto products. According to exchange filings, the funds are structured as spot ETFs that hold the underlying tokens via custodians. While that does not remove price risk, it does make buying these assets simpler for a broad group of investors. Featured image from Gemini, chart from TradingView

A new projection from an XRP analyst is drawing fresh attention to how quickly spot ETFs could gobble up available tokens if heavy inflows persist. Related Reading: With 42% Of XRP Holders Underwater, Analysts Say The Altcoin Could Crash Even Further The numbers in the model are simple and large, and they force a straightforward question: what happens if steady ETF buying meets a limited public supply? ETF Flows Could Outrun Supply According to analyst Chad Steingraber, one XRP ETF might average $90 million in daily inflows. Multiplying that by 12 ETFs and the result is $1.08 billion each day. Based on his assumptions, if half of those flows create fresh demand for XRP, issuers would need to buy about $504 million worth — roughly 229 million XRP — in a single day. One Day Billion ETF Flow Scenario (assume current price) Single Fund Day Avg – $90Million x12 Funds Avg – $1.08Billion Day 50% Avg Net Share Creation – $504Million Required Acquisition – 229,090,909 XRP —> 1 Day For fun — what if one week: x5 Days – 1,145,454,545 XRP What if… https://t.co/wpdDD1q7bn — Chad Steingraber (@ChadSteingraber) November 19, 2025 Stretch that pace for a week and the total climbs to 1.14 billion XRP. A month pushes it to 4.58 billion XRP. After six months, the model reaches 27.49 billion XRP, which is nearly half of the roughly 60 billion XRP currently in circulation. According to the projection, a full year at those levels could theoretically absorb the entire public supply unless prices move higher and slow purchases. Early Fund Flows Show Demand But Not A Shock Reports show Canary Capital’s XRPC ETF opened with $245 million in day-one inflows, followed by $25.41 million and $8.32 million on the next two days, bringing the fund to $277 million in assets. Franklin Templeton’s EZRP is scheduled to launch on November 24 and market estimates put first-day demand between $150–$250 million. Five other issuers — Bitwise, Grayscale, 21Shares, Valkyrie, and CoinShares — are waiting in line. Community math that assumes seven ETFs has produced a $7.2 billion annual inflow figure. That is a lot of money. But, so far, the market reaction has been muted rather than explosive. Related Reading: The Final Dip? Bitcoin’s Days Under $90K May Be Over According to analysts, fund purchases don’t hit public exchanges right away. Trades settle on a certain cycle, and many issuers buy XRP over-the-counter. As a result, large amounts could be accumulated quietly before they show up in exchange order books or pressure the spot price. $XRP Lost the previous breakout level. Looks headed back to $1.50 area. pic.twitter.com/8VskyzrPXk — Nebraskangooner (@Nebraskangooner) November 17, 2025 Price Dynamics And Technical Risks XRP’s price has not marched upward in lockstep with ETF headlines. The token has hovered near $2.14 and slipped more than 14% since last week. Technical voices in the market are warning about downside. Analyst Nebraskangooner points to a failed breakout from a descending triangle and sets a target near $1.50 — roughly a 30% drop from a recent $2.15 trading level. The chart argument traces a rally to a yearly high of $3.66 in July, a late-October attempt to break higher, and a subsequent break below support around $2.2.

According to on-chain data and market reports, XRP is under fresh selling pressure because a large share of holders are now showing losses. Related Reading: Kiyosaki Stands His Ground—No Selling, More Bitcoin Buys Ahead Glassnode reports that 41.5% of XRP supply — or close to 27 billion tokens — sits in loss, the lowest profitability level since November 2024 when XRP traded near $0.53. At today’s levels, about four times higher than that November figure, a big share of holders bought above current prices and are now exposed. Holder Concentration Raises Selling Risk Market analysts say this positioning has changed trader behavior. Tony Sycamore, a market analyst at IG Australia, disclosed that many wallets likely picked up XRP when it was above $3.00 during months including January, July, August, September, and early October. That means a sizable group is now holding paper losses after the 40%+ slide from the July $3.65 peak. The scale of unrealized losses can encourage some investors to exit if prices keep drifting lower, which would add selling pressure. The share of XRP supply in profit has fallen to 58.5%, the lowest since Nov 2024, when price was $0.53. Today, despite trading ~4× higher ($2.15), 41.5% of supply (~26.5B XRP) sits in loss — a clear sign of a top-heavy and structurally fragile market dominated by late buyers. ????… https://t.co/CBXPzDalxV pic.twitter.com/UpLNKV7LqD — glassnode (@glassnode) November 17, 2025 ETFs Could Bring Fresh Demand Or Little Impact Reports have disclosed a wave of exchange-traded funds tied to XRP that may alter flows.

JUST IN: FRANKLIN TEMPLETON’S SPOT $XRP ETF (EZRP) LAUNCHES TOMORROW. BULLISH ???? pic.twitter.com/rmGN1rdVGI — Amonyx (@amonbuy) November 17, 2025 If that level is defended, a bounce toward the $2.35–$2.60 band could be possible. If it fails, further retracement towards lower levels is a realistic outcome, in particular with a large portion of holders underwater and stop orders possibly clustered beneath current support. On-Chain Signals Paint A Top-Heavy Picture According to data from blockchain trackers, the market looks “top-heavy,” meaning that many of those who entered recently paid high prices for their coins and are thus more vulnerable. That pattern often makes rallies less stable until profit-taking pressure eases or fresh buyers step in. Related Reading: From Dotcom To Crypto: Veteran Analyst Says The Bull Run Isn’t Over At the same time, activity on the XRP Ledger has been rising, and renewed clarity around rules for digital assets in some jurisdictions has helped sentiment a bit.

A clear break above $2.60 could relieve selling pressure, while a break below support might trigger further selling by holders trying to limit losses. For now, XRP is stuck in a battle between the pressure of unrealized losses and new potential flows of capital from ETFs. Featured image from Unsplash, chart from TradingView

An analyst has sounded the alarm on what could become one of the most explosive rally in XRP’s history. As the cryptocurrency prepares for its long-awaited Exchange-Traded Fund (ETF) debut, the balance of XRP on major exchanges continues to decline. Analysts are warning that an impending supply crisis could spark a significant surge in the XRP price, which is currently more than 34% below its all-time high levels. XRP Supply Shortage To Trigger Parabolic Surge Amidst ongoing market volatility and whale capitulation, crypto market expert Arthur remains positive about XRP, drawing attention to a series of on-chain developments that could mark the beginning of a parabolic upward move. In his post on X social media, the analyst emphasized that an XRP could soon see a supply crisis, which may ignite its next price explosion. Related Reading: Pundit Reveals Final Nail In The Coffin For XRP, What This Means According to recent chart data from CryptoQuant, XRP reserves on Binance have fallen to about 2.79 million tokens, marking a sustained decline that began in early 2025. The chart also shows that while XRP’s price has remained relatively stable between $2 and $3, the available supply on almost all major cryptocurrency exchanges has continued to decline drastically. Arthur has revealed that this signals a growing imbalance between supply and demand, which could set the foundation for a bullish move. Arthur has also referenced a prediction made by JPMorgan analysts, who estimated that between $4 to $8 billion could flow into the upcoming XRP Spot ETFs once they launch in the market. This projection indicates confidence in XRP’s future institutional demand and interest as a legitimate digital asset class. The analyst has suggested that increased ETF demand from institutions, combined with limited liquidity, could create a “perfect storm” for a price breakout of XRP. Additionally, the analyst has revealed that the XRP ETF could also see a surge in retail demand, contributing to its projected price appreciation. Currently, reports indicate that approval of XRP Spot ETFs by the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) is still pending. However, prominent analysts like Nate Geraci remain confident that these investment products will be launched soon. Binance XRP Reserve Data Shows Steady Losses Delving deeper into XRP’s supply on exchanges, CryptoQuant’s data shows that the cryptocurrency’s reserve on Binance is sitting at approximately 2.785 billion tokens as of November 12, 2025. Notably, this marks a decrease of over 10 million tokens from the previous day, when 2.795 billion XRP was recorded. Since the beginning of November, Binance’s XRP balance has been declining, hovering just above the 2.7 billion token threshold.
