November 2025 Crash Worsens, But States and Institutions Continues to Buy

As of November 26, 2025, Bitcoin is trading around $87,011, 31.12% below its October peak of $126,198, according to on-chain data from CoinMarketCap.

The recent price decline labeled the "November 2025 crash" has erased $800 billion in total market capitalization, with $2 billion in leveraged positions liquidated over the last week.

Ethereum is trading near $2,935, increasing by 1.5% on renewed DeFi and Layer 2 activity, though the Crypto Fear & Greed Index is in "extreme fear" territory at 20.

Despite the high decline in price, institutional adoption of cryptocurrencies surged. Texas made its Strategic Bitcoin Reserve formal on November 20, 2025 with a $5 million stake in BlackRock's iShares Bitcoin Trust ETF, part of a $10 million initial allocation under Senate Bill 21. The state plans for self-custody to address counterparty risks.

Japan's highest institutional Bitcoin holder, Metaplanet, drew down $130 million from a $500 million credit facility on November 21, 2025, secured against its Bitcoin treasury, to buy more BTC. The investment company now holds 30,823 BTC, valued at $2.7 billion at current prices, with enough collateral to serve as a buffer for a drop to $74,000.

Meme coins extended losses, with overall meme coin market capitalization hitting a 2025 trough of $47.6 billion following a $5 billion wipeout in 24-hour, even as trading volume surged 40%.

MON climbed 56.05% in the last seven days in price and has a 24% surge to a $4.8 billion fully diluted valuation, and REKT rose 37% to $120 million, but blue chips remained stagnant. SPX is up 14%, DOGE remains stable, SHIB is +3%, PEPE is flat, PENGU is -6%, BONK is -3%, TRUMP is -2% and FARTCOIN is -10%. The TRUMP token lost 11.65% over the week.

NFT volumes remained weak at $3.26 million daily, while the overall market cap was down 43% to $2.84 billion, its lowest since April 2025. Collection floors edged lower, with CryptoPunks down -1% at 30.8 ETH, Pudgy Penguins down -1% at 5.67 ETH and Bored Ape Yacht Club down -1% at 5.89 ETH. Hypurr's bucked the trend with a 3% gain to 720 HYPE, joined by Infinex Patrons at +22% and Good Vibes Club at +13%.

As things stand, traders now anticipate and look forward to the Federal Reserve rate cut hints to spark a recovery, though seasonal "hibernation" could limit gains.
