El Salvador Buys $100M Of Bitcoin Despite Price Crash

Some sell Bitcoin on the dips while others aggressively buy more — and so far, it’s the accumulators who’ve come out ahead, though only time will decide which strategy ultimately wins.

El Salvador is pressing ahead with its aggressive Bitcoin accumulation strategy despite one of the steepest market drawdowns of the year. The Central American nation purchased 1,091 BTC on Tuesday — nearly $100 million worth — according to data from the country’s Bitcoin Office. 

President Nayib Bukele later posted a screenshot on X confirming that the government accumulated 1,098.19 BTC over the past seven days, pushing total holdings to 7,474.37 BTC valued at roughly $688… Read more on BitcoinMagazine

LATEST: VanEck Unveils New Solana Staking ETF $VSOL With Zero Management Fees

VanEck’s new Solana ETF (VSOL) officially launched Monday, entering a fast-growing field of staking-enabled Solana funds from Bitwise and Grayscale, which have already drawn more than $380 million since late October. The ETF offers staking rewards to investors holding Solana within the fund, and VanEck is waiving its 0.3% management fee until February 17 or until VSOL reaches $1 billion in assets — an aggressive move to capture early market share after the SEC’s September rule change accelerated crypto ETF approvals.

Competition is set to intensify as Fidelity prepares to debut its own Solana ETF (FSOL) on Tuesday. Most Solana ETFs charge around 0.25%, and analysts note that Fidelity is the largest asset manager entering the Solana category, with BlackRock still absent. The expanding lineup highlights accelerating demand for altcoin exposure beyond Bitcoin and Ether.

More altcoin ETFs are approaching launch, including Grayscale’s Dogecoin ETF, which could go live as early as November 24. Bitwise may follow shortly, underscoring a widening push by issuers to lead the next phase of crypto investment products.

Bitcoin Plunges Below $96K Support, Erasing 2025 Gains Amid Extreme Bearish Sentiment

Well, the hopes and dreams of the bulls have been dashed this week after Bitcoin closed the week out at $94.290, below the key $96,000 weekly support level. In the weeks ahead, we should expect more bearish price action as key support levels have been lost. Bounces back up may come, but they are unlikely to result in recapturing any meaningful price levels. 

Key Support and Resistance Levels Now

Bitcoin price closed below the $96,000 support level identified in this article in prior weeks. Closing near the lows below this level provides very little chance, if any, for the price to recover and resume a bull market anytime soon. Looking lower, we have our next major support…

Bitcoin Price Crashes To $91,0000 And New Lows

Bitcoin price has tumbled to its lowest level in six months, trading from below $92,000 to the $95,000s range today, only less than six weeks from hitting a record highs near $126,000 in early October. 

The roughly 30% decline comes as traders grapple with renewed uncertainty over whether the Federal Reserve will cut interest rates at its December meeting. 

At the time of publishing, the lowest Bitcoin price recorded today was $91,158, per Bitcoin Magazine data.

Missing economic data from last month’s 43-day government shutdown has left policymakers in a cautious stance, with Fed Chair Jerome Powell noting that “a further reduction in the policy rate…is not a foregone…

LATEST: Singapore Exchange SGX Launches Bitcoin and Ether Perpetual Futures

Singapore Exchange’s derivatives arm is set to shake up institutional crypto trading with the launch of bitcoin and ether perpetual futures on Nov. 24. The exchange says the new products will blend the reliability of global derivatives markets with the flexibility of crypto’s most traded instruments. SGX Group president Michael Syn highlighted that digital assets are now firmly part of institutional portfolios, calling the move a deliberate step toward bringing disciplined, regulated structures to crypto trading.
Perpetual futures—futures contracts without an expiry—are popular among crypto traders for allowing positions to be held indefinitely. These products typically dominate offshore and unregulated markets, generating over $187 billion in daily volume. SGX’s contracts will reference the iEdge CoinDesk Crypto Indices, providing institutions familiar, benchmarked pricing supported by 24/7 data.
Industry leaders, including DBS Bank and OKX, welcomed the launch, calling it a timely expansion of Singapore’s digital asset ecosystem. They said the products will offer institutions more efficient ways to gain crypto exposure while adding transparency and confidence to the market.

Bitcoin falls, even as Strategy buys $835.6M for its holdings

This is a segment from the 0xResearch newsletter. To read full editions, subscribe.

Following the longest government shutdown in US history, markets still have not recovered well. While gold has outperformed (+1.79% over the past week) and the S&P 500 and Nasdaq 100 are only slightly down (-0.21% and -0.57%, respectively), BTC has seen significant downside, with -10.32% over the past seven days.

Altcoins have similarly not fared well. The only sectors which have outperformed BTC are RWA and no-revenue indices. No-revenue tokens have outperformed slightly due to XRP holding up better than BTC (down only -6.36% over the past week), and RWA tokens have been held up by OUSG…

Japan Wants To Slash Its Crypto Taxes By 32%

Japan’s Financial Services Agency (FSA) has reportedly finalized a sweeping plan to reclassify 105 cryptocurrencies — including bitcoin — as financial products under the Financial Instruments and Exchange Act, marking one of the country’s most significant regulatory shifts since the Mt. Gox era.

According to outlet Asahi, the move would subject these 105 assets to the same disclosure, reporting, and market surveillance standards used in Japan’s traditional securities markets. 

Exchanges listing the assets would have to publish detailed information on each token, including whether it has an issuer, the underlying blockchain architecture, and the level of price…
