In a post on X, analyst Darkfost observed that the spot trading volume across major exchanges slowed down in November. Binance, which still held the largest volume share, saw a $40 billion volume drop from October to November.

Bitcoin had shed 17.5% of its value for the month, with the analyst noting that the deeper we go into the cycle, the less prominent the Bitcoin spot trading activity became. The successive peaks were noticeably smaller too.

Meanwhile, Futures trading activity has continued to be high. Spot volume, as a ratio, was only 0.23 of the Futures volume.

The Bitcoin Supply in Profit Market Bands metric has seen a swift plunge from being above the psychological inflection line, to falling below the liquidity accumulation.

Put simply, it meant that until very recently, the supply in profit showed bullish market conditions. The selling pressure since early October wiped out these holders’ profits, mirroring  the metric’s drop in June 2021.

Back then, Bitcoin was able to surge to new highs once again before entering a bear market. It is possible a similar scenario could unfold once more, but investors must remain cautious and be prepared for a transition to a bear market as well.


Final Thoughts

  • Low spot trading volume and highly fearful market conditions may be signs that a local market bottom is in.
  • The Bitcoin supply in profit metric revealed parallels to June 2021, when a BTC bounce to a new all-time high began.

Trump to start final Fed chair interviews beginning with Kevin Warsh

Trump to start final Fed chair interviews beginning with Kevin Warsh

The post Trump to start final Fed chair interviews beginning with Kevin Warsh appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. President Donald Trump will begin the final interviews of candidates for the Federal Reserve chair this week, putting back on track the formal selection process that began this summer. “We’re going to be looking at a couple different people, but I have a pretty good idea of who I want,” Trump said Tuesday night aboard Air Force One to reporters. The interviews by Trump and Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent will begin with former Fed governor Kevin Warsh on Wednesday and also include Kevin Hassett, the director of the National Economic Council, at some point, according to two sources. It restarts the process that was derailed a bit last week when interviews with candidates were abruptly canceled. Trump said recently he knew who he was going to pick to replace current Chair Jerome Powell, and prediction markets overwhelmingly believed it would be Hassett. But his possible selection received some pushback from the markets recently, especially among fixed income investors concerned Hassett would only do Trump’s bidding and keep rates too low even if inflation snaps back. So it’s unclear if these interviews are a sign Trump has changed his mind or just the final stage of the formal process. CNBC first reported in October that Trump had narrowed the candidate list down to five people. Four of those five will be part of these final interviews. The group also includes current Governors Christopher Waller and Michelle Bowman as well as BlackRock fixed income chief Rick Rieder. The Fed will likely lower rates for a third time this year on Wednesday, but Powell, whose term as chair is up in May, is expected to strike a cautious tone at his post-meeting press conference on how much lower the central bank will go next year. The Fed’s latest forecast released in September called…
