In November 2025, Bitcoin rapidly entered a bear market, tumbling over 20% from its peak of $126,000 to approximately $82,000 amid significant liquidity pressures.
Key indicators signal a potential year-end reversal as historical patterns and expert insights hint at renewed bullish momentum once forced liquidations diminish.
Macro liquidity is poison right now, but the sellers will eventually run out of ammo. Just wait for the Fed to reboot the liquidity engine—Q4 rally could surprise.
The market impact was immediate, with Bitcoin experiencing dramatic price reductions across the market. Ethereum and other crypto sectors felt selling pressure, but Bitcoin was primarily affected. Long-term holders are slowing their sell activity, hoping for market recovery.
Market Dynamics and Liquidity Pressures
Financially, the market saw massive ETF outflows, with over $19 billion deleveraged in October and further liquidations in November. The macro uncertainty, coupled with historical trends, raises expectations for Bitcoin's liquidity-driven rally by year-end.
On-Chain Data and Expert Outlook
On-chain data reveals that long-term holders are capitulating less, indicating cautious optimism. Raoul Pal, CEO of Real Vision, observed, "Bitcoin is tracking the liquidity cycle. All historical analogs point to an explosive reversal once these forced liquidations subside."
Historical precedents also suggest that improved macro liquidity could drive a comeback.
