🐻 Another Bear Calls for a Drop to $50K
🔎 Bloomberg’s senior strategist Mike McGlone believes Bitcoin could fall to $50,000, noting the asset is strongly overbought relative to gold.
📉 Lower volatility in the stock market is also supporting the current correction.
Both bull and bear camps are growing — and the tension is rising. Who will be right this time? 🤨

🔨 2010 Bitcoin Miner Moves “Sleeping” Coins
A Bitcoin miner from 2010 just moved 50 BTC mined in the early days — coins that have since increased in value by 21.65 million times (~2.165 billion %)! 🙀
These 50 BTC were originally mined in March 2010 for a single block, when Bitcoin was worth only $0.004 — making their initial value around $0.20. 💪
On Dec 2, 2025, the coins were transferred to five new addresses, now valued at roughly $4.33 million. 💰
A rare glimpse into early Bitcoin history and the incredible long-term gains of holding since the Satoshi era. 👀

💰 Total crypto market cap has climbed back to $3.15 trillion.

The market bounces back fast — and punishes the bears even faster.

🛠 Bitcoin mining is getting pricier
According to the latest CoinShares report, the average cost to mine 1 BTC for public miners in Q2 2025 climbed to ~$74,600. 🧐
But if you include non-cash expenses — depreciation and stock-based compensation — the total average cost jumps to ~$137,800 per BTC. 😳
Rising costs highlight growing pressure on miners as profitability tightens, especially with BTC consolidating and competition increasing. 📊

📊 BTC buy/sell ratio hits highest level since Jan 2023
The BTC buy-to-sell ratio across all exchanges jumped to 1.17 yesterday — the highest reading since early 2023. This signals a clear dominance of buyers in the market. 🧐

🔥 Vanguard Effect hits Bitcoin
Eric Balchunas notes a powerful “Vanguard Effect”: Bitcoin surged right as U.S. markets opened — on the first day Vanguard allowed its clients to buy crypto ETFs.
The investment giant listed ETFs for BTC, ETH, SOL, XRP, LTC and others on its platform. Trading exploded instantly: IBIT (BlackRock’s BTC ETF) crossed $1B volume in the first 30 minutes of the U.S. session. 🚀💵
Balchunas joked:
Vanguard manages over $11 trillion in assets — and its entry is already moving the market. 💰

📉 American Bitcoin stock collapses 50% in a month
📊 Shares of American Bitcoin have dropped more than 50% over the past month as early investors rushed to exit following the end of their lock-up period.
Even high-profile PR — including Eric Trump’s tours of the company’s mining facilities — failed to stop the sell-off. 🤷

🔼 Bitcoin’s fair value estimated at $165K

Just recently, the market offered a chance to buy around $80K — potentially a 2x upside if BTC realigns with liquidity trends. 📈💵
Maybe that was the last big opportunity? 😉

😬 Did Jim Cramer just curse Saylor?
Cramer compared Michael Saylor to the “Malcolm X of Bitcoin,” saying he’ll do whatever it takes to defeat short-sellers.

❄️ Strategy is preparing for a potential “crypto winter”
🔎 Analysts at CryptoQuant believe Michael Saylor’s company is getting ready for a bear market. Strategy has begun building a USD reserve to cover debt obligations over the next two years — currently $1.4B, with plans to increase it. 💵
Experts note that a 24-month cash buffer signals the company sees a real risk of Bitcoin entering a prolonged sideways phase or deeper decline. 👀
This shift may have major market implications:
▪️Lower BTC purchases from Strategy could weaken a key source of demand that fueled previous bull cycles.
▪️But the USD reserve also reduces the chance of forced BTC selling during stress, which ultimately supports long-term market stability.

📊 Bitwise: Corporate ETH treasuries are collapsing
According to Bitwise, companies bought only 370,000 ETH in November (~$1.1B) — an 81% drop from the August peak. 🧐
The corporate treasury model is rapidly losing strength: premiums are shrinking, demand is fading, and smaller firms are entering a “death spiral”, losing access to capital and the ability to keep accumulating ETH.
A worrying signal for the corporate ETH narrative — pressure i clearly building. 🧱

🦋 CryptoQuant CEO: A 2022-style Bitcoin crash is unlikely
According to CryptoQuant’s CEO, if Strategy keeps holding its 650,000 BTC (~$60B) this cycle — or sells only a small portion — the market is unlikely to see another -65% Bitcoin drawdown like in 2022. 📉
BTC is currently about 25% below its ATH, and even if a bear phase begins, the decline will likely be much milder, resembling a broad sideways range rather than a deep collapse.
His message to long-term holders: avoid panic selling. Bitcoin now has stronger liquidity channels and far better structural support than in past cycles. 🤔

📱 Major Security Flaw Found in Popular Android Chip — Solana Phones at Risk
Ledger researchers have demonstrated a critical exploit in the MediaTek Dimensity 7300 chip — the same one used in Solana Seeker smartphones.
⚡️ Using an electromagnetic attack, they gained full control of the device, and the flaw lies in the boot ROM, meaning it cannot be patched.
Key points:
• The vulnerability is baked into the silicon — no software fix is possible.
• Attackers can escalate privileges to the highest level.
• Solana Seeker phones inherit the same hardware-level flaw.
• Storing private keys on such devices is unsafe.
• Ledger stresses that only secure-element hardware wallets protect against this class of attacks.
A serious reminder: if your phone uses Dimensity 7300, it should not be your crypto storage device. 🤷

🇺🇸 BlackRock: U.S. Debt Growth Could Spark a Crypto Bull Run
BlackRock predicts that the rising U.S. national debt — potentially hitting $50T by 2035 — will drive crypto gains over the next decade, as a weakening dollar increases demand for Bitcoin as a store of value.
💡 The booming AI sector requires massive investments in energy and infrastructure, funded through the expanding deficit.
With spot ETFs making institutional entry easier, cryptocurrencies are shifting from speculation to a legitimate hedge against debt and the new AI-driven economy.
Bottom line: Crypto is becoming a natural response to rising debt and economic transformation.

🥊 Peter Schiff vs CZ: The Bitcoin vs Tokenized Gold Debate
At Binance Blockchain Week in Dubai, Peter Schiff and CZ went head-to-head in a debate about Bitcoin vs tokenized gold. Before the event, Schiff even posted a cartoon video showing him and CZ fighting — CZ using Bitcoin, Schiff using a gold bar. 🥋
But on stage things flipped: CZ “knocked him out” by demonstrating a fake gold bar, making his point clear —
“No proof of work — no value.” 🤷
Bottom line: the debate highlighted how, in today’s market, digitally verifiable value can outweigh physical gold, especially when gold can be counterfeited.

😳 Japan’s sovereign debt is on the edge
🇯🇵 Japan’s 10-year bond yield has jumped from –0.28% to 1.92% since 2019 — the highest since 2007. The country’s debt-to-GDP ratio is 215%, and it just launched a $135B stimulus package.
Markets now expect an 80% chance that the Bank of Japan will hike rates again on December 19. Such a move could trigger a carry-trade unwind, potentially causing global shockwaves.
While everyone watches the Fed’s decision on December 10, the real financial time bomb may be Japan.
Remember: on August 5, 2024, BTC briefly crashed below $50k during a carry-trade panic 😩

💸 Funds Are Accumulating Bitcoin
BlackRock CEO Larry Fink says sovereign wealth funds have been quietly buying large amounts of BTC around $80k — not for speculation, but for true long-term accumulation.
🐂 According to Fink, the Bitcoin market will accelerate much faster than most expect, and the key catalyst will be the tokenization of real-world assets (RWA).
🔼 BlackRock believes tokenization will become the foundation of the new global financial system in the coming years.
Fink continues to fuel interest in the RWA narrative — clearly warming up the market ahead of BlackRock’s upcoming products. 🕐
