In a post on social media platform X, OxNobler detailed the reason behind Bitcoin\u2019s decline: significant sell-offs by major players.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/CryptoNobler\/status\/1996983005445816411?s=20\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">According <\/a>to the analyst, the world\u2019s largest cryptocurrency exchange, Binance, sold 4,000 BTC; U.S.-based Coinbase (COIN) liquidated 5,675 BTC; and traditional finance giant Fidelity sold 3,288 BTC. Additionally, market maker Wintermute offloaded 1,793 BTC.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Notably, the analyst pointed out that <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/strategy-michael-saylor-msci-possible-exclusion\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener \">Strategy<\/a>, formerly MicroStrategy, which is the largest public company holder of Bitcoin with over 650,000 coins, has also sold over 3,820 coins in this same time frame.<\/p>\n<p>The firm\u2019s sell-off comes on the heels of speculation regarding Strategy\u2019s potential to liquidate some of its holdings due to the substantial losses affecting its financial performance amid declining Bitcoin prices.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>When Strategy CEO Phong Le was <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/bitcoin-news\/will-strategy-liquidate-bitcoin-holdings-ceo-provides-concerning-clues\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">questioned <\/a>about the possibility of selling off Bitcoin, he acknowledged that while the firm\u2019s former CEO, Michael Saylor, has consistently opposed selling, circumstances may change if the company\u2019s stock trades below the net value of its Bitcoin holdings, which aligns with the recent actions taken by the firm.<\/p>\n<h2>Coinbase Analysts Predict December Recovery\u00a0<\/h2>\n<p>Interestingly, while these institutional sell-offs have contributed to the current market dip, Coinbase\u2019s institutional division has <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/CoinbaseInsto\/status\/1997035615075160549?s=20\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">projected <\/a>a potential recovery for the crypto market in December, citing improving liquidity, a 92% probability of the Federal Reserve (Fed) cutting rates, and supportive macroeconomic conditions.<\/p>\n<p>Analysts have pointed out several reasons for optimism, including the recovery of liquidity, the resilience of the \u201cAI bubble,\u201d and the attractiveness of short US dollar trades at current levels.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>However, OxNobler warned that the situation may not be so straightforward. Alongside the activities of major institutions, he noted that BlackRock, the world\u2019s largest asset manager, had recently <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/CryptoNobler\/status\/1996912547203895673?s=20\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">sold <\/a>$130 million worth of Bitcoin and Ethereum (ETH).<\/p>\n<p>Furthermore, Vitalik Buterin, one of Ethereum\u2019s co-founders, seems to have resumed <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/CryptoNobler\/status\/1996954980465414442?s=20\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">selling Ethereum<\/a>, with millions of ETH being moved from the foundation\u2019s wallet through Gnosis Safe.<\/p>\n<p>Ultimately, OxNobler asserts that these institutional activities may have a hand in manipulating crypto prices and preventing them from climbing to higher levels and key resistance points.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tradingview.com\/x\/8mpFBWyo\/\" alt=\"Crypto\" width=\"1814\" height=\"928\"><\/p>\n<p>Featured image from DALL-E, chart from TradingView.com\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The cryptocurrency market experienced another wave of liquidations on Friday, with Bitcoin (BTC) prices dipping below the critical support level of $90,000.
