The Ice and Fire of the Crypto World: Crashes, Stalemates, and Opportunities Hotcoin Research | November 3-7, 2025

Summary: This week, the cryptocurrency market is experiencing a dual world of "ice and fire." On one hand, Trump shouts, "I hope to make the U.S. a Bitcoin superpower," and companies like Tether are accumulating at the bottom. On the other hand, there are "net outflows from ETFs, negative growth in stablecoins, whale sell-offs, and attacks on established DeFi projects." This indicates that we are in a stage of transition between new and old holders.

This week, the cryptocurrency market is experiencing a dual world of "ice and fire." On one hand, Trump shouts, "I hope to make the U.S. a Bitcoin superpower," and companies like Tether are accumulating at the bottom. On the other hand, there are "net outflows from ETFs, negative growth in stablecoins, whale sell-offs, and attacks on established DeFi projects." This indicates that we are in a stage of transition between new and old holders.

Cryptocurrency Market Performance

Currently, the total market capitalization of cryptocurrencies is $3.46 trillion, with BTC accounting for 59%, which is $2.04 trillion. The market cap of stablecoins is $305.4 billion, decreasing by 0.63% in the last 7 days. Notably, the number of stablecoins has continued to decline for two weeks, with USDT accounting for 60.08%.

Among the top 200 projects on CoinMarketCap, most have decreased while a few have increased, including: ICP with a 7-day increase of 199.52%, FIL with a 7-day increase of 122.46%, DASH with a 7-day increase of 59.5%, AR with a 7-day increase of 132.2%, and ZK with a 7-day increase of 100.94%.

This week, the net outflow from U.S. Bitcoin spot ETFs was $1.207 billion; the net outflow from U.S. Ethereum spot ETFs was $50.8 million.

Market Forecast (November 10 - November 14):

Currently, the RSI index is at 59.64 (neutral range), and the Fear & Greed Index is at 21 (lower than last week, in the fear range). The Altcoin Season Index is at 39 (lower than last week).

BTC core range: $100,000 - $107,000

ETH core range: $3,100 - $3,800

SOL core range: $152 - $186

Market sentiment: This week, the cryptocurrency market is experiencing a dual world of "ice and fire." On one hand, Trump shouts, "I hope to make America a Bitcoin superpower," and "companies like Tether are accumulating at the bottom." On the other hand, there are "ETF net outflows, negative growth in stablecoins, whale sell-offs, and attacks on established DeFi projects." This indicates that we are in a phase of transition between new and old holders. Due to many negatives, the market is in an "extreme fear" sentiment, but the indicators themselves may serve as a contrarian signal, suggesting that the market may have become overly pessimistic and could rebound at any time.

Close attention should be paid to institutional movements: whether the fund flows of Bitcoin ETFs can recover and whether the Solana ETF can maintain strong capital inflows (which saw a single-day inflow of $29 million last week). These are key to assessing institutional confidence.

For conservative investors: Stay patient, as the current market direction is unclear. Keeping sufficient cash is the best strategy.

For aggressive traders: Follow the breakout direction closely, and next week, focus on several key levels. Buy low and sell high within the range, and set timely stop-losses.
