Bitcoin’s latest downturn has caused considerable speculation about whether Strategy’s (formerly known as MicroStrategy) massive holdings are playing a role in the market’s weakness. The concerns escalated sharply when wallet-monitoring platforms flagged large Bitcoin transfers linked to the company, sparking widespread claims that a major sell-off had begun. The conversation gained even more traction when a widely circulated report alleged that Strategy had slashed its Bitcoin holdings by tens of thousands of tokens. Michael Saylor moved quickly to address the rumor, but the back-and-forth between on-chain interpretations and official statements raises questions of what is really happening behind the scenes. Related Reading: XRP Earns Academic Praise: University Study Calls It ‘Gold In Your Hands’ How Wallet Movements Turned Into Full-Blown Sell-Off Rumors The controversy started when Walter Bloomberg shared a post citing Arkham Intelligence and claiming Strategy had reduced its Bitcoin stash from 484,000 BTC to roughly 437,000 BTC. The alleged drop of about 47,000 BTC immediately led to questions as to whether the company had quietly begun liquidating. Saylor responded directly beneath the post, stating, “There is no truth to this rumor,” dismissing the claim outright. There is no truth to this rumor. — Michael Saylor (@saylor) November 14, 2025 As the situation spread across social platforms, Arkham Intelligence later clarified what actually happened. In a post on X, the firm explained that Strategy had moved 43,415 BTC since midnight UTC, worth over $4.2 billion, but also noted that the activity consisted of routine custodian rotations. According to Arkham, the transfers were due to movement from Coinbase Custody to a new custodian, along with internal rebalancing and wallet refresh processes. None of the movements indicated sales and that Strategy frequently performs these custodial transitions. Anyone tracking these wallet clusters over the past two weeks would have seen similar flows, eventually followed by relabeling once new addresses were established. Saylor’s Public Reassurance And Continued Bitcoin Accumulation In response to the swirling speculation, Saylor took a definitive stance to calm markets. While speaking at an interview on CNBC, Saylor addressed the controversy, stating that Strategy had not sold any Bitcoin and had no plans to do so. His remarks left no ambiguity as he said, “We are buying; we’ll report our next buys on Monday morning.” He went further to describe the company’s financial position and long-term confidence, noting that the firm has put in a very strong base around here with its Bitcoin holdings. Saylor also highlighted that Strategy’s debt structure does not impose immediate obligations, saying the debt is still “4.5 years out.” This means there is currently no financial pressure that would require liquidation of Bitcoin.

In terms of price action, Bitcoin has spent most of this week on a downtrend, which now puts its price trading below $100,000. At the time of writing, Bitcoin is trading at $96,084.

According to CryptoWzrd’s latest XRP daily technical outlook, XRPBTC ended the day with a strong bullish close. This renewed strength in the pair could give XRP the momentum it needs to push toward the $2.75 resistance level and potentially extend even higher. Daily Sentiment Mirrors Bitcoin As XRP Closes Slightly Bearish The analysis from CryptoWzrd notes that XRP’s daily candle was in alignment with Bitcoin’s broader market sentiment and closed slightly bearish. This reflects the continued pressure from Bitcoin, which remains a key driver of overall market direction. Despite this bearish close, the XRPBTC pair showed strength by ending the day bullish, signaling a potential shift in momentum. Related Reading: XRP Price Correction Is Far From Over: Bearish Divergence Signals Potential Revisit To $2.05 A continued push higher could drive the pair above the daily lower-high trendline, triggering a more impulsive price reaction. If this breakout materializes, it opens the door for XRP to advance toward the $2.75 resistance region, a level that has now become the next major target for bullish traders. However, Bitcoin’s influence remains a critical factor. Any renewed weakness or sharp downside movement from BTC could easily spill into XRP’s price action. In such a scenario, XRP may find itself retreating toward the $2 support zone, which stands as the next meaningful level of defense if bearish pressure intensifies. CryptoWzrd added that tomorrow’s focus will shift primarily to developments on the lower-time-frame charts. Short-term structure and intraday reactions will be key to spotting potential scalp opportunities. Choppy Intraday Action Signals Market Indecision The analyst observed that XRP’s intraday price action remained relatively choppy, with the market trading within a narrow range. This kind of movement suggests that traders are still waiting for a clearer signal before committing to a strong directional bias. Related Reading: XRP Price Sees Bullish Move, Can Buyers Protect Upside Levels? A key level to watch on the intraday chart is the $2.408 resistance. According to the analysis, a clean move above this threshold could unlock further upside momentum, creating favorable long opportunities as buyers regain control. Such a breakout would signal growing confidence and potentially shift short-term sentiment in XRP’s favor. However, if the price reacts bearishly at that same resistance zone, a rejection from $2.408 would present a short opportunity, indicating that sellers are still protecting that level. This scenario would likely reinforce intraday weakness and keep XRP confined within its current structure. The analyst also warned that any drop below the $2.2550 support level would push the market into a fragile zone where further declines become more probable. For now, patience is essential, as traders must wait for a more mature and organized intraday structure before taking aggressive positions. Featured image from Freepik, chart from Tradingview.com

The world’s richest man, Elon Musk, recently posted a picture of a Shiba Inu, Dogecoin’s mascot. However, the Dogecoin price failed to react positively to the post, as it has most times done in the past when Musk made similar posts. Dogecoin Price Fails To React to Elon Musk’s Shiba Inu Post The Dogecoin price failed to surge on the back of Elon Musk’s X post, in which he posted a meme of a Shiba Inu playing a banjo. DOGE has in the past rallied on the back of such posts because the Japanese dog breed is the meme coin’s mascot. Notably, the post comes amid a crypto market downturn, which has sparked bearish sentiment toward DOGE. Related Reading: Analyst Predicts Dogecoin Price “Historic Mega Run” – Here’s The Target As such, this may explain why the Dogecoin price failed to rally on the back of Elon Musk’s X post. DOGE is currently struggling below the psychological $0.2 price level amid concerns that the crypto market may be in a bear market. The foremost meme coin and other altcoins have declined alongside Bitcoin, which is now way below the psychological $100,000 level. However, amid speculations that the Dogecoin price may already be in a bear market, a positive for the foremost meme coin is Elon Musk’s announcement that X Money will launch soon. There has been a lot of speculation that DOGE could be included as a payment option in the social media platform’s payment system. This remains a possibility, considering Elon Musk’s affinity for Dogecoin, even going as far as referring to himself as the ‘Dogefather.’ DOGE’s potential inclusion as a payment option on X Money could serve as a bullish catalyst for the Dogecoin price, as it would boost the meme coin’s utility What’s Next For DOGE Amid Bear Market Concerns Crypto analyst CryptoCeek provided insights into what is next for the Dogecoin price as it continues to decline. In an X post, he noted that DOGE is drifting toward $0.14 again and that a breakdown below this level could put a further drop to $0.10 in sight. This puts the foremost meme coin at risk of losing its bull market structure. Related Reading: Analyst Says Dogecoin Price Is About To Burst, Here’s The Target However, CryptoCeek added that a flip of the 20-day EMA can lead the Dogecoin price to reclaim $0.21. In the meantime, he declared that the range traders are still running the show. Meanwhile, crypto analyst Ali Martinez raised the possibility that Dogecoin’s price could drop to as low as $0.07. He stated that below $0.16, support for DOGE disappears quickly, with the next real demand zone at $0.07. At the time of writing, the Dogecoin price is trading at $0.16, down in the last 24 hours, according to data from CoinMarketCap. Featured image from Freepik, chart from Tradingview.com

Exciting data from an on-chain analysis has recently surfaced, revealing accumulation patterns in Bitcoin and Ethereum on the Binance exchange that have historically preceded renewed bullish momentum. Related Reading: Massive Bitcoin Bid Walls Spotted On Binance: Bulls Step In With 2,800 BTC Cluster Binance Sees $1.77B BTC/ETH In Outflows As $1.58B In Stablecoins Enter In a QuickTake post on November 14, pseudonymous market analyst CryptoOnchain shares insights into the crypto market direction, based on Binance activity. This post revolves around the Binance 7-Day Asset Netflow By Network metric, which shows if more volumes of an asset on specific networks are being deposited into Binance (net inflow), or being withdrawn (net outflow) over the past seven days, revealing the underlying activity across different asset types. According to CryptoOnchain, a net outflow of $1.77 billion in Bitcoin and Ethereum assets has been recorded from the Binance network. Specifically, the analyst reports outflows of $1.1 billion in Bitcoin (BTC_Native) and $670 million in Ethereum (ETH_Native) occurring over the past week. Typically, a large movement of assets out of exchanges such as of this magnitude reflects a growing ‘HODL’ sentiment among investors, as these coins are usually transferred into private wallets for holding. As an extension, an increasing hoarding appetite among holders signals a reduction in sell-side pressure, as there is less liquidity on standby, betting against price. Simultaneously, Binance records an almost similar amount, $1.58 billion, in stablecoin inflows. About $900 million of these came in as USDT, while $680 million was in USDC. Usually, a large inflow of stablecoins indicates an active increment by ‘smart money’ of their buying power. As short-term holders or retailers sell, thereby adding to sell pressure, the long-term holders in this scenario stand ready to absorb sell pressure with their liquidity. Related Reading: Bitcoin Rejection Was No Accident — Now The Battle Shifts To $93,000–$97,000 Survival Zone Clear Accumulation In Play Amid Market Uncertainty Historically, this divergence in on-chain activity (a significant amount in BTC/ETH outflows vs a large amount in stablecoin inflows) has preceded price recoveries to the upside. As such, it qualifies as one of the strongest indicators to show that the market is in an accumulation phase. Despite the predominant market sentiment being one that depicts fear, CryptoOnchain posits that major market participants are currently “buying the dip,” thus putting in what may come to be a strong price bottom in the near future. In the grand scheme, the market still appears to hold a bullish outlook. As of this writing, Bitcoin is worth around $96,133, losing more than 1.33% of its value since the last day. Ethereum, on the other hand, holds a valuation of $3,153, reflecting a 24-hour loss of 1.53% per CoinMarketCap data. Featured image from iStock, Chart from Tradingview

The Bitcoin price has continued its horrendous run of form in the final quarter of 2025, ending the year pretty much as it began. Having lost the psychological $100,000 level on Thursday, November 13, the premier cryptocurrency appears to be free-falling under significant bearish pressure. Theories and debates continue to swirl around whether the Bitcoin price is merely feeling the effect of a naturally volatile crypto market or the bear season is slowly kicking in. A specific hypothesis explains that a loss of a certain technical level could spell a longer period of correction for BTC. Factors Behind The Bitcoin Price Collapse In a Quicktake post on the CryptoQuant platform, XWIN Research hypothesized and proposed how long the current Bitcoin price downturn could last. Before diving into its theory, the digital asset research firm first highlighted some of the factors behind the current decline in BTC’s price. Related Reading: How Low Can Bitcoin Price Go? JPMorgan Points To A Key Threshold XWIN Research revealed that the decreased expectations for a December rate cut are one of the reasons behind the recent decline. The shift in the Federal Reserve’s stance dragged the Bitcoin price below the key $100,000 level. Secondly, the crypto analytics firm noted that capital flows into spot exchange-traded funds (ETFs) have reversed sharply, with the investment products seeing nearly $1.1 billion in outflows in recent days. These massive withdrawals signal a waning institutional demand and general market sentiment. Finally, XWIN Research revealed that the excessive leverage in the market unwound violently. “Once major supports broke, cascading liquidations triggered more than 600 million USD in forced long closures within hours. Added to this were exchange-related rumors and DeFi security incidents, pushing sentiment into extreme fear,” the analytics firm wrote. How Long Could This Decline Continue? After outlining the factors behind this Bitcoin price decline, XWIN Research put forward a theory and a potential timeline for the future trajectory of the flagship cryptocurrency. With the $92,000 – $94,000 region being pinpointed as the next critical support, a breach of this zone could see the price of BTC fall to around $85,000. XWIN Research wrote in its Quicktake post that this $92,000 breakdown could see the Bitcoin price correction linger until early or mid-2026. However, the DeFi analytics firm noted that recent on-chain data offers a more optimistic outlook for the market leader. For instance, the cost basis of 6-to-12-month holders stands around $94,000, serving as a strong structural support. So long as the Bitcoin price stays above this band, the long-term bullish case for the premier cryptocurrency remains intact. XWIN Research added: Several catalysts could drive the next recovery. The most important is an improvement in macro conditions: a shift toward rate cuts or broader liquidity expansion in 2026 would draw capital back into risk assets. As of this writing, the price of BTC stands at around $94,930, reflecting a nearly 4% decline in the past 24 hours. Featured image from iStock, chart from TradingView
