Weekly Recap|Crypto Market Returns to Volatility as Industry Stocks Drop Amid Policy Shifts and Liqu
2025.11.11
Weekly Overview (Nov 3 – Nov 9)
Last week, risk aversion dominated the digital asset market as weak macro data, U.S. government shutdown fears, and the lingering impact of October’s $19 billion liquidation dampened investor sentiment. Crypto-related equities faced notable pressure, with sector-wide stock declines.
Bitcoin briefly fell below the key $100,000 support level before rebounding over the weekend, accompanied by recoveries in Ethereum, Solana, and other major assets.
This recap highlights last week’s key developments in the crypto industry and previews the upcoming market trends and policy shifts.
