Crypto Carnage: $1.2T Wiped Out as Bitcoin Plunges Below $80K - Leveraged Traders Liquidated

Blockchain Investing Strategies: Cryptocurrency Trading Guide podcast.Hey friends, Crypto Willy here with everything you need to know about blockchain investing and crypto trading for the wild week leading up to November 25, 2025. Buckle up, because even seasoned degens felt the turbulence—and the lessons are worth their weight in Bitcoin!Let’s start with the market shocker. Early November saw one of the hardest reversals in recent memory. Bitcoin smashed through its previous all-time high above $126,000 in October, only to nosedive toward $80,000 in less than a month. That move, as reported by Aurpay, wiped out all of 2025’s gains and sent over $1.2 trillion vanishing from the crypto market. A liquidation tsunami hit as well—$19 billion cleared out in just one 24-hour window, with close to 1.6 million traders seeing positions closed out. The phrase “buy the dip” got a reality check, and exchanges like Binance showed order books thinner than a ghost-chain whitepaper.What’s behind this? Market structure got exposed—big time. After corporate titans like BlackRock and hundreds of millions in ETF inflows drove 2024-25’s bull run, November saw institutional giants reversing course. According to Binance’s November 21 update, Wall Street dumped over $3 billion worth of ETFs, adding to the brutal sell pressure. Even the Financial Stability Board (FSB) and IOSCO were waving red flags about gaps in global crypto regulation, with tokenization risks and platform vulnerabilities right in the spotlight.Retail traders—folks like you and me—drove much of the recent downturn, says JPMorgan. The market entered what’s being called a “liquidity singularity,” where tiny sell orders triggered massive drops. Add in funding rates flipping bearish, and sentiment turned frosty. For those trading Bitcoin, key support now sits around $80,000–$82,000, with major resistance ahead near $99,000 and $116,000.Ethereum and Solana suffered big as well, with Ether down under $2,800 and Solana hitting $127, according to CoinMarketCap via Binance. Ethereum’s main support is at $3,050–$3,200, but it’s a risky ride. A few bright spots? Certain altcoins like Undead Games (UDS), Kite, and Wefi have shown strength—BeInCrypto reports Wefi nearly cracked a fresh all-time high this week, while UDS and Kite both built momentum off strong technical signals.For blockchain investing strategies, here’s what matters:- Manage your leverage—don’t overextend when markets are this unstable.- Stay vigilant on order book depth; slippage and flash crashes are real.- Diversify across top-tier tokens and consider instant settlement tools, especially if you’re operating crypto e-commerce, to dodge volatility shocks.- Track institutional flows—ETF buy-ins or mass exodus signal big shifts ahead.- Watch for regulatory updates, especially around tokenization and investor protection.No matter how wild the markets get, fundamentals matter. Volatility will shake out the overleveraged, but smart, disciplined holders often get the last laugh.Thanks for tuning in—your time with Crypto Willy is always appreciated!
