Bitcoin’s Deep Correction Sets Stage for December Rebound, Says K33 Research

K33 Research says market fear is outweighing fundamentals as bitcoin nears key levels. December could offer an entry point for bold investors.

What to know:

  • K33 Research says bitcoin’s steep correction shows signs of bottoming, with December potentially marking a turning point.
  • The firm has argued that the market is overreacting to long-term risks while ignoring near-term signals of strength, like low leverage and solid support levels.
  • With likely policy shifts ahead and cautious positioning in futures, K33 sees more upside potential than risk of another major collapse.

Bitcoin’s BTC$88,161.78 recent slide may feel ominous, but K33 Research analyst Vetle Lunde says December could mark a turning point for the cryptocurrency. After its steepest correction since the last bear market, the firm sees more evidence for a rebound than another collapse.

BTC has been weighed down by a wave of selling, much of it structural. Spot bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs), which had been the market’s biggest buyers, turned into net sellers in November. CME futures activity has dropped to a multi-year low, signaling TradFi’s hesitation. Bitcoin’s price, meanwhile, has underperformed equities, reaching its weakest level against the Nasdaq since late 2024.

But K33 sees a market that’s overreacting to distant threats while missing near-term signals of strength. “The case for material upside is far more plausible than an 80% drawdown repeat,” the firm wrote in its December outlook.

They point to several factors. First, bitcoin is trading near strong historical support levels — around $70,000 to $80,000 — while broader positioning in futures remains cautious, not overheated. Perpetual markets show low leverage, and major liquidations haven’t materialized despite price pressure.

Long-term fears, such as quantum computing risks, potential bitcoin sales by Strategy (MSTR) or instability at Tether, may sound dramatic but are unlikely to hit anytime soon. K33 notes each of these threats is years away from posing real risk and shouldn’t be driving today’s price moves.

Instead, the firm argues, the focus should be on what lies ahead in the near term. With supportive policy changes on the horizon, including possible 401(k) access to crypto, and a pro-crypto shift at the Federal Reserve, K33 sees structural upside building. Bitcoin’s current valuation, they say, reflects fear more than fundamentals.

For now, the market remains cautious. But K33’s outlook suggests that December may offer a window for bold positioning.

Best Crypto to Buy as Saylor & Crypto Execs Meet in US Treasury Council

The post Best Crypto to Buy as Saylor & Crypto Execs Meet in US Treasury Council appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Michael Saylor and a group of crypto executives met in Washington, D.C. yesterday to push for the Strategic Bitcoin Reserve Bill (the BITCOIN Act), which would see the U.S. acquire up to 1M $BTC over five years. With Bitcoin being positioned yet again as a cornerstone of national monetary policy, many investors are turning their eyes to projects that lean into this narrative – altcoins, meme coins, and presales that could ride on the same wave. Read on for three of the best crypto projects that seem especially well‐suited to benefit from this macro shift:  Bitcoin Hyper, Best Wallet Token, and Remittix. These projects stand out for having a strong use case and high adoption potential, especially given the push for a U.S. Bitcoin reserve.   Why the Bitcoin Reserve Bill Matters for Crypto Markets The strategic Bitcoin Reserve Bill could mark a turning point for the U.S. approach to digital assets. The proposal would see America build a long-term Bitcoin reserve by acquiring up to one million $BTC over five years. To make this happen, lawmakers are exploring creative funding methods such as revaluing old gold certificates. The plan also leans on confiscated Bitcoin already held by the government, worth an estimated $15–20B. This isn’t just a headline for policy wonks. It signals that Bitcoin is moving from the margins into the core of financial strategy. Industry figures like Michael Saylor, Senator Cynthia Lummis, and Marathon Digital’s Fred Thiel are all backing the bill. They see Bitcoin not just as an investment, but as a hedge against systemic risks. For the wider crypto market, this opens the door for projects tied to Bitcoin and the infrastructure that supports it. 1.

The Future of Secure Messaging: Why Decentralization Matters

The Future of Secure Messaging: Why Decentralization Matters

The post The Future of Secure Messaging: Why Decentralization Matters appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. From encrypted chats to decentralized messaging Encrypted messengers are having a second wave. Apps like WhatsApp, iMessage and Signal made end-to-end encryption (E2EE) a default expectation. But most still hinge on phone numbers, centralized servers and a lot of metadata, such as who you talk to, when, from which IP and on which device. That is what Vitalik Buterin is aiming at in his recent X post and donation. He argues the next steps for secure messaging are permissionless account creation with no phone numbers or Know Your Customer (KYC) and much stronger metadata privacy. In that context he highlighted Session and SimpleX and sent 128 Ether (ETH) to each to keep pushing in that direction. Session is a good case study because it tries to combine E2E encryption with decentralization. There is no central message server, traffic is routed through onion paths, and user IDs are keys instead of phone numbers. Did you know? Forty-three percent of people who use public WiFi report experiencing a data breach, with man-in-the-middle attacks and packet sniffing against unencrypted traffic among the most common causes. How Session stores your messages Session is built around public key identities. When you sign up, the app generates a keypair locally and derives a Session ID from it with no phone number or email required. Messages travel through a network of service nodes using onion routing so that no single node can see both the sender and the recipient. (You can see your message’s node path in the settings.) For asynchronous delivery when you are offline, messages are stored in small groups of nodes called “swarms.” Each Session ID is mapped to a specific swarm, and your messages are stored there encrypted until your client fetches them. Historically, messages had a default time-to-live of about two weeks…
