Crypto News Today

Bitcoin Hits Two-Month Low Below USD 75,000

Bitcoin slipped below USD 75,000 and tapped a two-month low of USD 73,708 before stabilizing near USD 74,483. The move came with no clear crypto catalyst, as trading opened soft in Asia. Bitcoin now sits about 40% below its record high.

Bitcoin trades below its 50-day average near USD 82,000 but above its 200-day average slightly above USD 73,000. Buyers will likely defend that long-term line first. A clean break would shift focus to the USD 70,000 area.

Ether and XRP Lead Altcoin Declines

Ether fell 4.4% to USD 2,133.63, while XRP dropped 4.9% to USD 1.10. Solana lost 2.2% to USD 87.21, and Dogecoin eased 2.4%. Hyperliquid fell 3.9% to USD 74.33.

Ether also dipped below USD 2,100 intraday before recovering, and weekend lows were the weakest since August. Delta Exchange expects traders to defend the USD 2,060 to USD 2,100 zone. Selling volume has risen in both markets.

Bitcoin ETF Outflows Mark Worst Week Since June

US spot Bitcoin ETFs recorded USD 1.28 billion in weekly outflows, the steepest since June. Delta Exchange data shows Ethereum funds lost about USD 365 million. BlackRock's IBIT led Friday's exit with about USD 403 million. Fidelity's FBTC alone drew inflows.

Year-to-date Bitcoin ETF flows have turned negative after the USD 1.28 billion week. CoinGlass notes ETF data suits medium-term trends better than short-term signals. Sustained inflows are needed before traders trust any floor near USD 74,000.

Regulatory Doubts Weigh After US Midterms

TradingKey links the break below USD 75,000 to regulatory uncertainty after the Democratic congressional sweep. Macro funds have raised hedging as political shifts threaten crypto-friendly legislation. Benzinga reports Democrats now control both the House and the Senate.

The market structure bill would have moved more power from the SEC to the CFTC. Democrats will likely seek more investigations into the Trump administration. Policy risk now sits alongside ETF and rate pressure on sentiment.

Fed Hike Odds Lift Focus on US Inflation Data

Market-implied odds of a December Fed hike moved toward 80% after the strong jobs report. The US economy added 165,000 jobs in October against a forecast of 65,000. Higher rates tend to weigh on speculative assets like crypto.

Stronger inflation data could trigger further downside, while softer numbers may help Bitcoin defend USD 75,000. The release is scheduled for Tuesday, November 10. Traders may keep positions light until the print arrives. Volatility often rises around inflation prints.

Investor and Market Outlook

Desks mark USD 73,500 to USD 74,000 as near-term support, with the 200-day average near USD 73,000 just below it. A reclaim of USD 75,987 to USD 76,974 would improve momentum. A breakdown could open USD 70,000 and the USD 65,000 to USD 67,000 range.

Tuesday's inflation data and ETF flows will steer sentiment next. Investors may favor staggered entries and modest position sizes until stronger confirmation appears.
