Crypto Trends 3 – 9 November 2025: Market Analysis and Performance
The crypto market continues its sharp decline, as most cryptocurrencies record double-digit losses. The bulls are sleeping despite significant and positive changes in international politics and global finances. As investors rotate liquidity out of the crypto market and into stocks and commodities, the downtrend continues. As a result, the market capitalization lost over $210 billion, reaching $3.49 trillion.
Bitcoin was flying high above $120,000 a few weeks ago. However, over the past few days, it was dangerously close to dropping below $100k for the first time in six months. The king of cryptocurrencies traded as low as $101,000 on Wednesday due to massive liquidations. In the meantime, a slow push from traders buying the dip pushed it a bit higher, above $100k.
Ethereum has shelved its dreams of reaching $5,000 for the time being. The second crypto in command is now nearly $1,500 away from its ambitious goal. This situation stems from a consistent drop in investments and adoption.
Altcoins & DeFi
Most altcoins are trading in the red, though there are notable exceptions. For example, XRP is down 7%, Solana is down 12%, Cardano is down 5%, Avalanche is down 3%, Sui is down 9%, Chainlink is down 8%, and TRON is down 2%. On the other hand, ZCash is up 56%.
The memecoins also saw some interesting trajectories. For instance, Dogecoin is down 3%, Shiba Inu is down 1%, and Pepecoin is down 7%.
The Metaverse sector has also seen notable movements in the past week. For instance, Axie Infinity is down 1%, The Sandbox is up 1%, and Floki is down 8%. Meanwhile, Decentraland is up 3%, Render is up 8%, and ApeCoin is down 1%. Stacks decreased by 1% and MultiversX increased by 5%. Meanwhile, Virtuals dropped by 16%.
The DeFi sector lost nearly $16 billion from the total value locked in protocols (TVL), bringing the total to about $134.15 billion.
