Bitcoin rallied past $115,000 after Mt. Gox postponed its long-awaited creditor repayments by another year. The defunct exchange will now hold its 34,689 BTC until October 2026, easing market pressure and pushing BTC toward fresh highs.
Pi Coin has surged 24 % in a day, trimming monthly losses but staying deep in a broader downtrend. Momentum indicators warn the rebound may fade unless the token breaks above $0.28 — a level that could decide whether the rally continues or stalls.
Ethereum broke above $4,100, signaling renewed optimism but also resistance ahead. Analysts remain split on whether ETH can sustain momentum and reach $4,500 before the end of 2025.
A packed macro week awaits traders as the Fed’s rate decision, Powell’s comments, and key labor and inflation data hit amid a U.S. shutdown. Crypto markets, especially Bitcoin, may face heightened volatility as liquidity and rate expectations shift.
Bitcoin’s famed Stock-to-Flow model predicts massive gains, but analysts argue its scarcity-based logic no longer fits a demand-driven market. Competing models like BAERM and Power Law offer more grounded forecasts but even they have some shortcomings.
Bitcoin price is climbing again, backed by steady momentum and bullish technicals. However, falling whale participation and slower outflows suggest a pullback could come before another rally attempt toward $134,100.

- 10:51AIsa's cumulative transaction count on the x402 network has surpassed 10.5 million, making it the largest transaction contributor in the x402 ecosystem.ChainCatcher news, according to real-time data from x402scan, the AI micropayment infrastructure project AIsa has now surpassed 10.5 million cumulative transactions on the x402 network, accounting for 15.9% of the network's total of approximately 65.9 million transactions.The weekly growth rate exceeds 200%, and this proportion has significantly increased from about 7% two weeks ago, making it one of the largest, fastest-growing, and most stable entities in the current protocol. Industry insiders point out that in the x402 ecosystem, "number of transactions" better reflects actual network activity than "transaction amount." Unlike traditional payments, which are dominated by high-value transactions, the core scenarios of x402 include API calls, model inference, data access, and other AI agent micropayments, characterized by high frequency, low value, and automation. The continuous growth in transaction count indicates that the protocol's invocation density in real production scenarios is steadily increasing. AIsa serves AI developers for real-world applications, applying x402 to actual transaction scenarios, enabling various AI applications to call LLM Token, API resources, and data resources as needed. Reportedly, AIsa currently mainly operates on the Base chain, and AIsa is advancing commercial-grade facilitator applications together with Coinbase Developer Platform (CDP). AIsaplans to expand to networks such as Solana, Polygon, and X Layer, which will gradually provide native x402 support, to achieve higher concurrency and lower-cost AI Agent micropayment capabilities.
- 10:43Today, BTC options with a notional value of $13 billion expire, with the max pain point at $98,000.BlockBeats News, November 28, Greeks.live researcher Adam released today's options settlement data: 143,000 BTC options are expiring, with a Put Call Ratio of 0.51, the max pain point at $98,000, and a notional value of $13 billion. 572,000 ETH options are expiring, with a Put Call Ratio of 0.48, the max pain point at $3,400, and a notional value of $1.71 billion. Researcher Adam stated that the main options data shows that implied volatility has fully rebounded compared to last month. The main term IV for BTC averages around 45%, while the main term IV for ETH is below 70%, both at relatively high levels for this year. Around settlement, the large block trading volume and trading proportion of bitcoin options have continued to rise, mainly due to position rolling needs. However, large block trading in ethereum is very limited, reflecting different market characteristics. This year's Q4 market performance can be described as the worst in recent years. Due to macro uncertainties and other factors, there is significant market divergence, and leveraged trading is not recommended.
