<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/25/01/42858673/millionaire-trader-shares-playbook-he-used-to-print-8-figure-profits-on-d-o-g-e-bonk">Pseudonymous millionaire trader</a> Unipcs cautions that talk of a crypto cycle top is overblown and urges traders to maintain a long-term perspective.



What Happened: Unipcs <a href="https://x.com/theunipcs/status/1981283443909517334">highlighted</a> that 25%–30% corrections in Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) during bull runs are normal, and the recent 19.6% pullback falls well within historical ranges.



Even a drop to $88,000 would not be unprecedented, though he doesn't expect it.



The reaction of Bitcoin and altcoins after the massive Oct. 10 liquidation event further supports the view that the cycle has not topped. 



Unipcs stated that despite losing eight figures personally and witnessing $40 billion wiped out, Bitcoin has largely stabilized between $108,000 and $114,000.



Stronger altcoins like USELESS and BNB even hit new all-time highs, a behavior inconsistent with a true cycle top.



In another X <a href="https://x.com/theunipcs/status/1981008842444927077">post</a>, hey notes that extreme crypto pessimism, claims it's "done" and calls to shift to stocks, often signals a buying opportunity, with dips offering the best upside.

Why It Matters: Unipcs points to crypto's weak performance relative to gold and stocks as evidence of a cycle top. 



While gold and certain stocks like Beyond Meat have surged, Bitcoin has appeared stagnant.



The trader argues this is not unusual as crypto has often lagged broader markets before subsequently outperforming them. 



Short-term correlations with other assets are often misleading, as crypto tends to move later but more aggressively.



The trader concludes that, despite frustration over crypto's temporary underperformance, all the key signs point to this being an ideal time to aggressively accumulate Bitcoin and high-conviction altcoins in anticipation of a strong upcoming rally.

Millionaire Trader Lost 8 Figures But Still 'Aggressively Accumulates Bitcoin'

Hyperliquid (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/">HYPE</a>) jumped 10% to $39.70 on Thursday after Hyperliquid Strategies Inc. filed a Form S-1 with the SEC, seeking to raise up to $1 billion through a 160 million-share public offering that could also fund token purchases linked to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/25/09/47498043/is-lighter-the-next-hyperliquid">its cryptocurrency strategy</a>.



<h3 class="wp-block-heading">IPO Filing Highlights Direct Link To Crypto Strategy</h3>



According to the SEC filing, the company <a href="https://www.sec.gov/ix?doc=/Archives/edgar/data/2078856/000149315225018936/forms-1.htm">plans</a> to use a portion of the proceeds to acquire HYPE tokens, directly connecting its equity raise to the digital asset ecosystem it operates in. 



The New York-based firm, a merger between Sonnet BioTherapeutics Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/SONN">SONN</a>) and Rorschach I LLC led by CEO David Schamis, listed general corporate purposes and token purchases among the primary uses of capital.



The proposed raise would value the deal among the largest digital-finance offerings this year.

<a href="https://www.coinglass.com/currencies/HYPE/spot">$HYPE Price Action (Source: TradingView)</a>



On the 4-hour chart, HYPE has broken out of a narrowing wedge pattern that constrained price action through mid-October.&nbsp;



The move pushed the token above the 20- and 50-day exponential moving averages between $37.00 and $39.50, marking its first sustained breakout in weeks.



The next test sits near the 100-EMA at $39.54 and the 200-EMA around $42.30.&nbsp;



A decisive close above $42 would confirm the trend reversal and open upside targets at $48–$50, with an extended measured move projecting toward $58–$60 if momentum holds.&nbsp;



The Supertrend indicator flipped bullish around $34.80, reinforcing the view that the higher low near $36.50 could serve as a structural pivot.

<a href="https://www.coinglass.com/currencies/HYPE/spot">$HYPE Netflows (Source: Coinglass)</a>



Despite price gains, spot flow data from Coinglass shows continued outflows.&nbsp;



On Oct. 23, exchanges recorded roughly $3.96 million in net outflows, extending a multi-week pattern of negative spot activity. 



The data suggests that while prices are recovering from oversold levels, underlying spot demand remains limited, with sellers still sending tokens back to exchanges.



Persistent outflows often weigh on breakout sustainability, particularly when prices test major resistance zones.&nbsp;



Traders are watching for a shift toward positive netflows to confirm institutional accumulation.



<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Outlook: Can HYPE Confirm Its Breakout Above $42?</h3>



The short-term outlook hinges on whether HYPE can close above the 200-EMA near $42.&nbsp;



A confirmed breakout would likely attract momentum buying and put $48, $52, and $58 in play.&nbsp;



Failure to absorb selling pressure around that level, however, could send the token back toward $37 support and potentially to the $34.50 base if the rally fades.

Are XRP, SOL Done? HYPE Pumps 10% On $1 Billion Treasury Raise

Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>), Ethereum (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/eth/usd">ETH</a>) and Solana (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/sol/usd">SOL</a>) are <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/crypto/cryptocurrency/25/10/48260371/trump-family-reportedly-1-billion-in-profit-from-crypto-ventures">showing renewed strength</a> in the U.S. as financial institutions increasingly embrace crypto, according to a new report.



A16zcrypto's State of Crypto 2025 <a href="https://a16zcrypto.com/posts/article/state-of-crypto-report-2025/">report</a> highlights infrastructure improvements, adoption trends, and the evolving role of digital assets in global finance.



The total crypto market capitalization has surpassed $4 trillion in 2025, with Bitcoin crossing the $2 trillion mark and prices peaking to fresh all-time high levels.



Market Growth and User Adoption



While mobile wallet users are up 20%, active crypto users number 40–70 million, a fraction of the 716 million global holders, highlighting untapped potential for builders.



Usage varies by region: mobile wallet activity surges in emerging markets like Argentina, Colombia, India, and Nigeria, while trading and token interest remain concentrated in developed countries such as Australia and South Korea.



BTC, ETH, SOL Performance



<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>Bitcoin continues as a dominant store of value, recently hitting an all-time high above $126,000.</li>



<li>Ethereum and Solana are recovering from prior drawdowns, with ETH leading in developer engagement via Layer-2 networks.</li>



<li>On-chain economic activity is increasingly tied to real usage, with Hyperliquid and Solana driving over half of revenue-generating activity.</li>
</ul>



Institutional Adoption



Traditional financial firms including Citigroup (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/C">C</a>), JPMorgan (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/JPM">JPM</a>), Fidelity, Mastercard (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/MA">MA</a>), and Visa (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/V">V</a>) are offering or planning crypto products.



Stablecoins and digital asset treasury companies now collectively hold ~10% of Bitcoin and Ethereum supplies, handling $46 trillion in transactions last year, approaching Visa and ACH network throughput.



Exchange-traded products and on-chain holdings now total $175 billion, signaling maturation of the institutional market.

Crypto Regulatory Environment



U.S. frameworks such as the GENIUS Act, CLARITY Act, and Executive Order 14178 are providing clarity for builders and institutions. 



Regulatory guidance enables tokens to generate sustainable economic networks and drives broader adoption.



Emerging Frontiers



Tokenized real-world assets have reached $30 billion, while DePIN networks could scale to $3.5 trillion by 2028. 



Prediction markets, NFTs, and other consumer-facing blockchain products are gaining traction. 



Meme coin activity is cooling as regulatory clarity shifts focus toward productive use cases.



Stablecoins, institutional adoption, and consumer-facing blockchain products are positioned to drive the next wave of global crypto adoption, with Bitcoin holding its lead, Ethereum and Solana regaining momentum, and new markets poised for explosive growth.

Bitcoin Continues Dominance, But Ethereum, Solana Aren't Far Behind: Report

Dogecoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/doge/usd">DOGE</a>) and Shiba Inu (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/shib/usd">SHIB</a>) are seeing key developments that could drive price momentum and reverse <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/dogecoin-doge-price-prediction">the recent downtrend</a>.

Trader Notes: Trader EtherNasyonal<a href="https://x.com/EtherNasyonaL/status/1981096153006690421"> noted</a> that Dogecoin's dominance appears strong. 



After a 3.5-year downtrend since 2021, DOGE broke it in November 2024, retested in June 2025, and again during the Oct. 10 crypto crash, completing the break-and-retest process.



Carl Moon <a href="https://x.com/TheMoonCarl/status/1981028795466256792">explained</a> Dogecoin is also testing the "golden pocket" support zone. Reclaiming the weekly open could signal a breakout from its current consolidation range.



Statistics: Shibburn data shows SHIB burn rates surged 2,381% in a single day, removing 4.7 million tokens from circulation. This consistent token deflation could support a future price increase.



Community News: Global asset management firm T. Rowe Price <a href="https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/2089855/000199937125015832/activecrypto-s1_102225.htm">filed</a> with the SEC for an actively managed crypto ETF including DOGE and SHIB. 



Bloomberg Senior ETF Analyst Eric Balchunas and NovaDius Wealth President Nate Geraci acknowledged the filing with praise and predicts high demand for the same.



Crypto exchange KuCoin <a href="https://x.com/kucoincom/status/1981307222560010736">launched</a> KuPool, a mining service supporting DOGE, Litecoin, Pepe, and eventually Bitcoin, integrating mining within its existing exchange ecosystem.

This Solana-Linked Stock Is Ripping 46% Pre-Market: What's Driving It?

Plaintiffs in&nbsp;a class action lawsuit have&nbsp;lodged an updated complaint against&nbsp;Meteora&nbsp;and its co-founder, Ben Chow in connection with the controversial launch of Official Melania&nbsp;(CRYPTO:&nbsp;MELANIA) and LIBRA (LIBRA) meme coins.



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Plaintiffs Allege Chow Is The Mastermind</h2>



The plaintiffs <a href="https://storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.uscourts.nysd.642202/gov.uscourts.nysd.642202.205.2.pdf">asserted </a>that Chow was at the &#8220;center of the enterprise,&#8221; while Solana (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/sol/usd">SOL</a>)-based Meteora worked under the false banner of decentralized finance. 



They alleged that defendants &#8220;borrowed credibility from real-world figures and themes,&#8221; including First Lady Melania Trump and the Argentine President&nbsp;Javier Milei, to push at least 15 controversial tokens in the market.



&#8220;These faces and brands were used as props to legitimize what was actually a coordinated liquidity trap,&#8221; the complaint read



The lawsuit also implicates Kelsier Ventures, under the leadership of Hayden Davis, for orchestrating&nbsp;marketing campaigns for the token&nbsp;launches



The complainants also said that the public figures shouldn&#8217;t be held responsible since they were &#8220;merely the window dressing&#8221; for a crime committed by Meteora and Kelsier.



Chow didn&#8217;t immediately respond to Benzinga&#8217;s request for comment.

Melania Trump, Argentina's Javier Milei Not Responsible For Meme Coin Fraud, Revised Complaint States: 'Were Used As Props'

Bitcoin is back above $109,00 ahead of Friday's CPI release, despite net outflows <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/best-spot-bitcoin-etfs">from Spot ETFs</a>. 



Spot BTC ETFs saw a $101.3 million outflow, while Spot ETH ETFs recorded $18.8 million outflows. Total crypto liquidations hit $499.29 million, affecting 139,320 traders, and Bitcoin dominance jumped 1.4% to 59.1% in a single day.



Bitcoin Stuck, Key Levels Hold Importance



Daan Crypto Trades <a href="https://x.com/DaanCrypto/status/1981252988069990427">noted</a> Bitcoin is rangebound between $107,000–$111,000, with thin trading volume causing sharp swings. 



A break above $111,000 could open the door for further upside, while holding $107,000 support remains crucial.



Ted Pillows <a href="https://x.com/TedPillows/status/1981270069973045355">highlighted</a> Ethereum bounced off key support but shows lingering weakness. Until it reclaims $4,100 with strong institutional inflows, most pumps are likely to be retraced.



For Solana, Daan <a href="https://x.com/DaanCrypto/status/1981259005214208061">explains</a> it is consolidating around its Daily 200MA/EMA, forming lower highs and higher lows post-October 10 volatility. 



Key levels are $170–$175 support and $195–$200 resistance; the next move will depend on which side breaks.

Broadly tracking the crypto market, the meme coin cap rose 0.1% to $61.97 billion in 24 hours. AI-themed meme coins led with 1.6% gains, while Solana-based meme coins dropped 1.8%.



While Dogecoin remains "crazy cheap" under $0.2 <a href="https://x.com/galaxyBTC/status/1981219696352645288">according</a> to trader GalaxyBTC, Shiba Inu burn rates surged 2,690%, showing strong token deflation activity.

Bitcoin, Ethereum, XRP, Dogecoin Rebound Ahead Of Friday's Inflation Report

Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/TSLA">TSLA</a>) held on to its Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) for another quarter, reporting its second consecutive paper profit from cryptocurrency holdings.



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Bitcoin Brings In Gains For Tesla In Q3</h2>



Tesla held $1.315 billion in digital assets as of Sept. 30, an increase of over 6% from the previous quarter, according to the company&#8217;s earnings report posted after the market close.



That said, the company&#8217;s paper profits from its cryptocurrency investments stood at only $80 million, marking a sharp decline from $284 million in the second quarter.



Tesla does not publish a breakdown of its cryptocurrency holdings. However, on-chain analytics firm Arkham Intelligence&nbsp;<a href="https://intel.arkm.com/explorer/entity/tesla" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">reports</a>&nbsp;that the entirety of its stockpile consists of Bitcoin. Its stash of 11,509 BTC remained unchanged from the last quarter.



Moreover, Bitcoin closed the third quarter up 6.31%, which is consistent with the growth of Tesla&#8217;s digital assets.

Tesla&#8217;s Bitcoin journey began in January 2021, when it purchased $1.5 billion worth of the apex cryptocurrency.



The company had previously accepted Bitcoin as a payment option for vehicles before discontinuing the practice due to worries about the energy usage involved in Bitcoin mining.

Elon Musk's Tesla Records $80 Million Paper Profit On Bitcoin In Q3, Keeps Holdings Intact

Renowned economist&nbsp;Peter Schiff&nbsp;projected on Wednesday a supply explosion and subsequent price collapse for Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) if existing holders decide to exit the market.



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Existing Holders To Decide Bitcoin&#8217;s Fate?</h2>



Schiff took to X to share his views on the supply dynamics of the world&#8217;s leading cryptocurrency, stating, &#8220;Bitcoin&#8217;s supply growth isn&#8217;t limited to what&#8217;s being mined. What matters most is the supply that existing holders want to sell.&#8221;



He further stated that while &#8220;most existing Bitcoin&#8221; isn&#8217;t currently for sale, a sudden decision by holders to exit could result in a supply explosion. Without a corresponding increase in demand, he warned, the price would drop sharply.

Peter Schiff Says Bitcoin's Fate Hinges On Existing Holders: 'What Matters Most Is...'

Senate Democrats have demanded a detailed explanation from&nbsp;Steve Witkoff, the&nbsp;special envoy to the Middle&nbsp;East, about his personal interests in cryptocurrency.



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Ethics Disclosure Shows Stakes In Crypto Businesses</h2>



On Wednesday, Sen. Adam Schiff (D-Calif.) and seven other senators sent a letter to Witkoff, asking to explain why his latest ethics disclosure showed he still owned stakes in a Trump-linked cryptocurrency as well as other crypto business entities. 



"Your failure to divest your ownership in these assets raises serious questions about your compliance with federal ethics laws and, more importantly, ability to serve the American people over your own financial interests," wrote the senators.&nbsp;



The letter was also signed by other senators, including&nbsp;Ron Wyden&nbsp;(D-Ore.),&nbsp;Andy Kim&nbsp;(D-N.J.),&nbsp;Richard Durbin&nbsp;(D-Ill.),&nbsp;Catherine Cortez Masto&nbsp;(D-Nev.),&nbsp;Gary Peters&nbsp;(D-Mich.),&nbsp;Elissa Slotkin&nbsp;(D-Mich.), and&nbsp;Cory Booker&nbsp;(D-N.J.). 



The senators have given Witkoff until October 31 to respond to their letter.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Continued Scrutiny</h2>



Witkoff, who co-founded the crypto business World Liberty Financial with President Donald Trump in 2024, had previously stated his intention to fully divest from the project. However, his most recent ethics disclosure, dated Aug. 13, revealed that he has not yet sold his crypto holdings.



This is not the first time Witkoff&#8217;s crypto interests have come under scrutiny. In September, Sen. Elissa Slotkin (D-Mich.) had <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/crypto/cryptocurrency/25/09/47857473/trumps-crypto-czar-mideast-envoy-under-scrutiny-as-elissa-slotkin-seeks-probe-into-david-sacks-steve-witkoffs-alleged-uae-crypto-gains">demanded an investigation</a> into potential conflicts of interest involving Witkoff and David Sacks, another Trump administration official, and their ties to the World Liberty Financial cryptocurrency venture.



Meanwhile, the Trump family has reportedly&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/crypto/cryptocurrency/25/10/48260371/trump-family-reportedly-1-billion-in-profit-from-crypto-ventures">amassed over $1 billion</a>&nbsp;in pre-tax profits from their crypto ventures, which have expanded significantly since Trump&#8217;s return to the presidency.

Top Trump Envoy Steve Witkoff Pressed By Senate Democrats Over Crypto Assets

Television personality and political commentator&nbsp;Tucker Carlson&nbsp;expressed his reservations on Wednesday about investing in Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) due to the mystery surrounding its creator, Satoshi Nakamoto.



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Carlson Questions Satoshi&#8217;s Anonymity</h2>



Speaking at a Turning Point USA event in honor of Charlie Kirk, Carlson questioned the mysterious figure behind Bitcoin. 



&#8220;I try to limit myself&nbsp;to things I understand. And&nbsp;nobody can explain to me&nbsp;who Satoshi Nakamoto was. The&nbsp;creator of Bitcoin,&#8221; the former Fox News host said. &#8220;And no one can answer the question, including some of the biggest holders of Bitcoin in the world.&#8221;



Carlson stated that Nakamoto could be linked to the Central Intelligence Agency, a theory he has suggested before.



&#8220;Can&#8217;t prove it, but you&#8217;re&nbsp;telling me to invest in&nbsp;something whose founder is mysterious and has billions of&nbsp;dollars of unused Bitcoin. Like,&nbsp;what is that?,&#8221; he added.

However, Carlson admitted that he &#8220;loves&#8221; the idea of Bitcoin as it provides &#8220;financial autonomy.&#8221;



&#8220;I don&#8217;t want what I buy or sell to be tracked. I don&#8217;t want my money to be tracked. It&#8217;s nobody&#8217;s business. I pay my taxes,&#8221; he argued.



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">The Enigma That Is Satoshi</h2>



Carlson&#8217;s skepticism<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/08/40225355/tucker-carlson-says-bitcoin-is-a-cia-creation-unpacking-the-allegations"> echoes his previous claims at the Bitcoin 2024 conference</a>, where he suggested that Bitcoin could be a creation of the U.S.&#8217;s primary foreign intelligence service.&nbsp;He had criticized Bitcoin maxis for not knowing the real identity of Nakamoto.



The identity of Satoshi Nakamoto has been a subject of intense debate and speculation. The <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/10/41242615/peter-todd-is-satoshi-nakamoto-bitcoin-core-developer-denies-hbo-documentary-claims-im-not">2024 HBO documentary</a> titled "Money Electric: The Bitcoin Mystery" attempted to unveil the mystery. It identified Bitcoin Core engineer Peter Todd as Satoshi Nakamoto, a claim Todd unequivocally denied.



With Satoshi holding&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/who-is-satoshi-nakamoto">more than a million BTC,</a> worth over $120 billion, interested parties find a rational factor in knowing their identity, as any movement of their holdings could drastically affect the coin's price.



At the same time, some feel that Satoshi being pseudonymous is <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/10/41183648/satoshi-nakamoto-being-pseudonymous-is-one-of-the-coolest-things-ever-human-rights-activis">&#8220;one of the coolest things ever.&#8221;</a>



Price Action: At the time of writing, BTC was exchanging hands at $110,004.87, up 1.62% in the last 24 hours, according to&nbsp;<a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard?_gl=1&#x2A;380nj0&#x2A;_ga&#x2A;MTEyOTAyOTcxMy4xNzEzMzY0NTYy&#x2A;_ga_V7ZK73W7N0&#x2A;MTcxNDk4MzIzMi42LjEuMTcxNDk4OTE0Ni4wLjAuMA.." target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">data from Benzinga Pro</a>. &nbsp;

All of the stocks and ETFs disclosed by Greene have previously been bought by her this year, including Adobe and the iShares Bitcoin Trust, which were disclosed as purchases by the congresswoman last month.



Adobe and UPS are frequent purchases disclosed by Greene with the stocks bought in six and seven of the 10 months of 2025, respectively. Tesla stock has also been bought in five of the 10 months of the year now.



Greene went several years without disclosing stock purchases before unveiling a handful in 2024 in May 2024. That disclosure has been followed up with trades every month or two, with each month in 2025 having at least one disclosure.

</ul>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Greene's Trades Draw Increased Attention</h2>



As Benzinga previously reported, several of Greene&#8217;s trades could be problematic given the timing and her committee assignments.



The congresswoman is one of several members of Congress who have bought Bitcoin ETFs in 2025. One of her purchases came shortly before President Donald Trump announced he would make a Bitcoin Strategic Reserve. Greene is an ally of the president, who has helped boost the price of Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) with a pro-Bitcoin agenda since taking office in January.



Greene's purchase of Palantir, while serving on the Committee on Homeland Security, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/politics/25/06/45913665/if-you-invested-1000-in-palantir-stock-when-marjorie-taylor-green-disclosed-buying-heres-how-much-youd-have-now">drew increased scrutiny</a> with the company having multiple government contracts.



The congresswoman has said that she has a portfolio manager who handles all of her trades. Greene<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/politics/25/04/44852406/marjorie-taylor-greene-brushes-off-stock-buying-criticism-says-portfolio-manager-bought-the-dip"> brushed off criticism </a>earlier this year over the timing of buying numerous stocks before Trump announced a pause on tariffs and sent stock prices significantly higher.



&#8220;I think that criticism is laughable. President Trump has been talking about tariffs for decades,&#8221; Greene told reporters when asked about the trades at a recent town hall event in Georgia, in a clip <a href="https://x.com/unusual_whales/status/1912456434081480777" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">shared </a>by Unusual Whales.



The congresswoman used the opportunity to boast about her stock performance, which ranked her as one of the top trading members of Congress in 2024.



&#8220;I don&#8217;t place my buys and sells," Greene said, citing an agreement she has with her portfolio manager, who handles all the buying and selling of stocks. &#8220;He did a great job. Guess what he did. He bought the dip. And that&#8217;s what anybody that has financial sense does."



Greene also said her portfolio manager did not have inside information; everything was public and a potential tariff pause wasn&#8217;t a secret.



Several Congress members have <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/politics/24/05/39096827/exclusive-khanna-says-shameful-congress-members-profited-from-stocks-calls-for-trading-ban-makin" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">called for a ban </a>on the buying and selling of stocks and options by members of Congress. Efforts to put a bill forth for members to vote on have increased in recent years.

Bitcoin, Ethereum, XRP, Dogecoin Drop Over 4% As Whale Movements Shake Markets

Galaxy Digital Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/GLXY">GLXY</a>) CEO Mike Novogratz said the world's largest cryptocurrency could "take out the topside" and break above $125,000 if <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/crypto/cryptocurrency/25/10/48166648/donald-trump-once-said-the-us-could-pay-off-its-37-trillion-debt-burden-with-bitcoin-but-could-it-really">President </a><a href="https://www.benzinga.com/crypto/cryptocurrency/25/10/48166648/donald-trump-once-said-the-us-could-pay-off-its-37-trillion-debt-burden-with-bitcoin-but-could-it-really">Donald Trump</a> moves on the Federal Reserve and the pending market structure bill becomes law.



<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Novogratz Sees Trump Policy As Key Catalyst</h3>



Speaking during a recent interview <a href="https://x.com/BTCTN/status/1981009596404891692">shared</a> on X, Novogratz outlined a potential trading range between $100,000 and $125,000 for Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) but suggested a breakout could come swiftly if fiscal or regulatory catalysts align.



"We could take out the top side if the president prematurely makes a move on the Fed," Novogratz said.&nbsp;



"They could target that easily by the end of the year. And if this bill gets passed, those are the two catalysts I see."



Novogratz added that $100,000 should act as the lower boundary for Bitcoin, implying that the asset remains in a broad accumulation phase rather than entering a deeper correction.&nbsp;



His comments echo earlier calls from institutional strategists pointing to policy shifts as potential triggers for a renewed bull cycle.

<a href="https://in.tradingview.com/symbols/BTCUSD/">BTC Price Action (Source: TradingView)</a>



Technical Analysis: Technical indicators are signaling continued stress around the $108,000 region. 



The area marks the convergence of the 200-day exponential moving average at $108,095 and the rising trendline from March.



A close below this confluence would confirm a technical breakdown, exposing the next support zone near $104,000 and potentially the deeper structural floor at $92,000.&nbsp;



The 20-day and 50-day EMAs at $112,095 and $112,802 have both rolled over, maintaining a bearish bias.



The rejection at $116,000 last week underscored sellers control, while the Supertrend indicator at $119,393 continues to cap upside moves.&nbsp;



Bulls need a strong push through the $116,000–$119,500 zone to reverse the negative trend.

Data from Coinglass shows a modest $25.6 million net inflow on Oct. 22 as Bitcoin traded around $107,757. 



While inflows offer short-term relief, the broader picture since mid-year still shows heavier outflows, suggesting institutional investors remain cautious.



Historically, persistent outflows have hinted at accumulation, but this cycle's imbalance suggests that more supply is returning to exchanges than being moved into cold storage.

Galaxy CEO Mike Novogratz Says Bitcoin Is One Trump Move Away From Exploding Past $125,000

<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/jamie-dimon">Jamie Dimon</a> wants to fortify America's economic defenses, but the plan will spark an unlikely side effect, according to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/jim-cramer">CNBC's Jim Cramer</a>.



<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>Track $BTC <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/BTC-USD">here</a>.</li>
</ul>



The JPMorgan Chase CEO unveiled a $1.5 trillion initiative dubbed &#8220;Security and Resiliency.&#8221; The sweeping 10-year effort aims to finance and invest in industries deemed vital to national security — from critical minerals and batteries to AI and quantum computing.



Cramer, however, sees trouble brewing as a fresh wave of speculation has <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/crypto">crypto bugs crawling</a> out of the woodwork.



 "We are in 2000 territory on specs," he warned on X, saying Dimon's fund "unwittingly stoked a huge spec wave." His message to investors: trim before people get hurt.



<figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper">
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">Crypo due for a push today. We are in 2000 territory on specs. It is where the cockroaches are. But at the same time Jamie Dimon said the cockroaches are ending he announces a $1.5 trillion fund that unwittingly stoked a huge spec wave.. We MUST focus on this before people really…&mdash; Jim Cramer (@jimcramer) <a href="https://twitter.com/jimcramer/status/1980930919675425039?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">October 22, 2025</a></blockquote><script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">When Wall Street Gets Defensive — And Speculative</h2>



On paper, Dimon's plan looks patriotic. The bank will <a href="https://www.jpmorganchase.com/newsroom/press-releases/2025/jpmc-security-resiliency-initiative">pour</a> up to $10 billion in direct equity investments, helping U.S. companies in sectors such as defense, energy resilience, and advanced manufacturing. The move underscores Dimon's belief that the U.S. has become "too reliant on unreliable sources of critical minerals and manufacturing."



But Cramer's point is that Wall Street can't resist turning even the safest-sounding plans into speculative fuel. As Dimon talks "national resilience," traders are chasing crypto again — Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) is up more than 60% over the past year, hovering above $108,000. 



"It's where the cockroaches are," Cramer said, comparing the current moment to the dot-com bubble, when speculation overran fundamentals.



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">The Irony: AI, Defense — And Digital Speculation</h2>



The irony isn't lost on investors. JPMorgan's initiative includes funding for "frontier technologies" such as AI, cybersecurity, and quantum computing — all sectors now being linked, reasonably or not, to the crypto boom. As money flows into anything labeled "future tech," Cramer fears speculative excess will return with a vengeance.



Dimon's $1.5 trillion push might indeed strengthen America's economic backbone. 



But as Cramer sees it, Wall Street's old habits die hard — and the cockroaches, it seems, are back to feast on the frenzy.
