🚨 $1.64 BILLION IN CRYPTO LIQUIDATIONS!
The market bloodbath is getting worse as $BTC and $ETH face massive selling pressure.
According to CoinGlass, 186,672 traders were liquidated in the past 24 hours.
📉 24H Liquidations:
🔴 Total: $1.64B
📉 Longs: $1.46B
📈 Shorts: $182.86M
👥 Traders liquidated: 186,672
⏱️ More liquidation breakdown:
• 1H: $14.55M
• 4H: $421.02M
• 12H: $1.06B
• 24H: $1.64B
💥 Largest single liquidation: $31.09M BTC-USD long on Hyperliquid.
Long traders are taking the biggest hit, accounting for nearly 89% of total liquidations.
⚠️ Is this a major leverage flush before a recovery, or is more downside ahead?
🚨 ALTCOIN SEASON IS GETTING FURTHER AWAY?
Bitcoin dominance is approaching a critical 61% breakout level, currently sitting at 60.98%, its highest since May 2026.
📊 Key signals:
Weekly Supertrend turns bullish for the first time since Feb 2025.
BTC dominance breaks out of a months-long triangle.
Altcoin Season Index drops to 39.
30-day Altcoin Season Index falls to just 24.
⚠️ If $BTC dominance breaks above 61%, it could target 62%, putting further pressure on altcoins.
A rejection below 61% and a drop toward 60% could offer altcoins some relief.
Will Bitcoin dominance continue rising, or are altcoins finally ready to bounce? 👀
Tokenized equities just hit a record $4.8B AUM, up 164% since June.
bStocks on Binance is now the largest issuer. It crossed $1.5B in 145 days.
But the real story is who’s buying 👇
56% of volume trades outside U.S. market hours
Gen Z makes up 46% of users
~70% of volume comes from emerging and frontier markets
Access starts at just $5
That’s not hype. That’s people who could never easily reach U.S. stocks finally getting in, on their own schedule.
What would make me trust a tokenized stock? Proof, not promises.
Every bStocks token is backed 1:1 by real shares and ETFs at a regulated custodian, and the reserves are published daily on the Proof of Collateral page. Go check it yourself.
The honest read: $4.8B is still a tiny slice of traditional equities. It’s early.
So what drives the next phase: cheaper access or 24/7 trading? 👇
🚨 MARA sold 13,597 $BTC (~$1.1B) after Q3 closed and used $750M to repay all of its bitcoin-backed loans (10-Q filed Nov 9)
🔹 Loans repaid: Coinbase Credit ($450M) and Two Prime, taken out on Aug 4
🔹 All 17,477 $BTC pledged as collateral was returned
🔹 Less than 5% of its bitcoin is now loaned or pledged
🔹 Total debt is down $1.4B (37%) since January
MARA: “not a pivot away from bitcoin”, and the repayment “decreased our exposure to bitcoin price volatility.”
📊 Q3 revenue: $164.2M (-35% YoY), with 2,247 $BTC mined
📊 MARA has sold ~26,984 $BTC in 2026
Other miners are selling too: Riot sold 10,599 $BTC ($751.5M) in Q3, and Hut 8 sold ~$250M.
MARA is pushing into AI and power, with a $500M buyback approved.

🚨 Fed Rate Hike Odds Hit 84% as Bitcoin ETFs Bleed $1.28B!
📉 US spot $BTC ETFs recorded $1.28 billion in outflows last week, their largest weekly loss since late June.
📊 CME FedWatch:
• 84.4% odds of a December rate hike
• 15.6% odds of rates holding steady
Rising rate expectations and institutional outflows are adding pressure to crypto markets.
Will Bitcoin face another major sell-off? 👀
🚨 Bitcoin’s 7-week streak above the 50-week moving average is over.
$BTC closed the week at $74,968, slipping below the key indicator for the first time since September.
📊 In the 2012 and 2020 cycles, similar breakdowns occurred without breaking the bear market lows.
🔑 The critical level to watch now is $59,517. If it holds, the current cycle bottom may remain intact.
Will history repeat itself?
🔓 More than $623.9M in token unlocks hit the market in the second week of November
1️⃣ $ALLO (Allora), Nov 11: 160.22M tokens (~$23.14M), 65.54% of released supply, mostly to early backers (102.47M) and core contributors (57.75M)
2️⃣ ethereum:0xa27ec0006e59f245217ff08cd52a7e8b169e62d2, Nov 13: 797.50M tokens (~$9.88M), 31.81% of released supply, all to the foundation
3️⃣ $CONX (Connex), Nov 15: 1.32M tokens (~$17.01M), 1.37% of released supply
Also on the radar: $YZY, $BABY, $APT.
The $ALLO, $CONX and ethereum:0xa27ec0006e59f245217ff08cd52a7e8b169e62d2 unlocks are pending verification (Tokenomist), so those figures are projections.

🚨 Wallets linked to Trump Media sent ~4,259 $BTC (~$342M) to Crypto.com, per Arkham
🔹 Two batches of 2,140.03 and 2,119.31 $BTC at 02:17 UTC
🔹 The coins came from addresses labeled “2028 Convertible Notes Collateral”
🔹 ~30% of the company’s reported ~14,139 $BTC as of Jul 31
⚠️ A Nov 2 filing says convertible noteholders can require repayment on Nov 30 (~$1B). The company warned it may have to sell bitcoin or other digital assets if refinancing falls short.
Earlier similar transfers in May and August were described as trading strategy and custody management, not sales. An exchange transfer doesn’t confirm a sale.
$BTC trades near $80.4K.

Binance Co-CEO Richard Teng sat down with Fox to talk about the recent security incident. Worth a watch 👇
He opened with an apology: “this should not have happened.” He described it as a highly sophisticated, multi-month campaign that the FBI has attributed to North Korea. The attackers used fake recruitment interviews, malicious software disguised as developer tools, and AI techniques. Not one mistake or one click.
What stood out to me is the response:
🛡 Users came first
Binance said it bears the full financial impact. It set aside more than 100% of the amount and has replenished 98% of impacted assets. The remaining 2% are less liquid tokens being procured without disrupting markets. You can verify balances yourself through Proof of Reserve.
🔒 The holes are closed
All identified entry points have been closed and affected systems rebuilt or replaced. Device controls are tighter, wallet-service risk controls are stronger, and AI anomaly detection has been expanded.
🚨 This wasn’t a one-off threat
Binance says it detected and prevented 57 other suspected North Korea-linked cyberthreat cases this year.
💰 Recovering what can be recovered
Working with law enforcement, issuers and blockchain intelligence firms, about $2.85B has been frozen or intercepted so far.
The bigger lesson is for the whole industry:
⚡ Attacks are scaling fast: from one hack a month, to one a week, to four exchanges in a single day. AI is shortening attack timelines and making them more sophisticated.
🤖 The only defence that scales against AI is AI. Security has to be AI-driven and run at AI speed.
🤝 That means crypto firms working closely with leading AI and security companies, and investing heavily in engineers, AI tools and embedded AI security.
As Richard put it, if this can happen to a platform spending heavily on security, it can happen to anyone. What matters is how you protect users and get stronger afterwards.

📈 $BTC is up to $78,380 in a V-shaped comeback, after an early low just below $76K, as midterm uncertainty fades

🔻 US spot $BTC ETFs: $515M in outflows last month, and the same again in the first two trading days of November

Wise Crypto retweeted
Investigation update: Our initial investigation suggested that the security incident may have involved a compromised laptop, however our subsequent investigation has uncovered additional points of breach.
This was a complex attack, and we are doing all we can in coordination with law enforcement to resolve it. We are still gathering the facts, and will share more directly as we have them.
Binance will cover all losses from the SAFU fund and the company’s funds. User funds are safe.
We are still on track towards the expected timeline to resume the withdrawal service in 45 hours. Deposits remain unaffected.
The outflows ceased when we paused withdrawal service earlier. We are still working with partners to freeze many of the impacted assets, and have frozen around $3 billion thus far.
We will continue to provide further updates through official Binance channels as more verified information becomes available.

Binance's initial investigation suggests that the security incident may involve a compromised DevOps engineer’s laptop, which allowed an attacker to gain access to a service container and submit unauthorized withdrawal transactions. We have found no evidence of any wallet private key leak. We will share a detailed technical post-mortem once the investigation is complete and the facts are fully verified.
The estimated total impact sits at around $6.3B. We have worked with blockchain partners to freeze affected assets, with ~$3 billion frozen on-chain so far.
Binance will cover all losses from the SAFU fund and the company’s funds. User funds are safe. We will also publish an updated Proof of Reserves once the remediation is complete.
As an immediate precaution, Binance has:
- temporarily suspended deposits and withdrawals while security checks are completed;
- revoked the affected address authorisation;
- engaged law enforcement and blockchain intelligence partners to trace and recover funds.
Our teams are working around the clock to resolve this issue safely and thoroughly. We are working closely with our law enforcement partners to confirm the identity of these criminals and bring them to justice.
Please rely only on official Binance channels for updates. Please feel free to contact Binance Customer Support if you have any further questions.
