Mon 24th Nov 2025
**Bitcoin faces its worst November in 7 years**, dropping approximately 17% as the month draws to a close. **Market analysts view the decline positively**, suggesting the capitulation is clearing out excessive leverage and weak projects from the ecosystem. **Key technical level to watch**: A monthly close above $93,000 would establish a positive foundation for potential growth in 2026. **Context from recent weeks**: The broader crypto selloff may stem from market-maker liquidity issues following October's crash, which damaged balance sheets and forced trading desks to reduce positions. **Long-term perspective**: Despite short-term pain, the current reset phase could provide **strategic entry opportunities** for patient investors as the market stabilizes.
