Bitcoin market crash fall wasn’t unique to crypto: Binance CEO

Binance CEO Richard Teng says crypto’s recent volatility mirrors broader market conditions amid global deleveraging.

Summary
  • Binance CEO Richard Teng says crypto is not uniquely affected in the recent crash
  • Investors in all markets are changing their risk assessments over macro uncertainty
  • While volumes across the crypto market dipped, there are no structural shifts or liquidity issues

Bitcoin’s sharp 21% decline over the past month may have spooked retail traders, but Binance’s CEO Richard Teng says there’s no need for panic. On Friday, November 21, Teng spoke at a media roundtable in Sydney, where he highlighted that the decline is not unique to crypto.

Bitcoin (BTC) is currently trading at $84,997, down sharply from its all-time high of $126,198 in early October. The likely reason for the drop is in macro conditions. Low employment figures and rising inflation are contributing to uncertainty.

At the same time, it remains unlikely that the Federal Reserve will lower interest rates this year. These macro conditions are putting pressure on all risk assets, including crypto.

Bitcoin remains up 100% from 2024

Teng also emphasized that Bitcoin remains up more than 100% year-to-date. At the same time, institutions like BlackRock are increasingly active in the space, even launching crypto products. For this reason, short-term corrections are healthy for the industry, he added.

Teng also stated that Binance has not yet decided whether it will take back its founder, Changpeng Zhao, now that U.S. President Donald Trump pardoned him.

DOGE ETF Hype Fades as Whales Sell and Traders Await Decline

The post DOGE ETF Hype Fades as Whales Sell and Traders Await Decline appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Leading meme coin Dogecoin (DOGE) has struggled to gain momentum despite excitement surrounding the anticipated launch of a US-listed Dogecoin ETF this week. On-chain data reveals a decline in whale participation and a general uptick in coin selloffs across exchanges, hinting at the possibility of a deeper price pullback in the coming days. Sponsored Sponsored DOGE Faces Decline as Whales Hold Back, Traders Sell The market is anticipating the launch of Rex-Osprey’s Dogecoin ETF (DOJE) tomorrow, which is expected to give traditional investors direct exposure to Dogecoin’s price movements.  However, DOGE’s price performance has remained muted ahead of the milestone, signaling a lack of enthusiasm from traders. According to on-chain analytics platform Nansen, whale accumulation has slowed notably over the past week. Large investors, with wallets containing DOGE coins worth more than $1 million, appear unconvinced by the ETF narrative and have reduced their holdings by over 4% in the past week.  For token TA and market updates: Want more token insights like this?

This reduced DOGE demand from significant players can lead to decreased buying pressure, potentially resulting in price stagnation or declines in the near term.
