Bitcoin Retreats from Historic High Amidst Sharp Volatility

According to both Investing.com and CoinCodex, Bitcoin is trading at $90,763 as of November 30, 2025, down 6.6% year-over-year, after reaching a historic high of $126,210 on October 6, 2025. Bitcoin rose by 0.04% in the past 24 hours, bringing its market capitalization to $1.81 trillion.

The cryptocurrency market has experienced significant volatility throughout November, with Bitcoin falling from record levels above $120,000 to a low of $80,697 during the month. These violent movements reflect the prevailing uncertainty in financial markets, along with concerns regarding the Federal Reserve's monetary policy.

The circulating supply of Bitcoin is 19,955,340 coins, representing 95% of the maximum cap of 21 million coins. Analysts expect volatility to continue in the coming weeks as investors await the Fed's decisions on interest rates in December, with forecasts suggesting another potential cut of 25 basis points. Additionally, the increasing official recognition of Bitcoin, including the establishment of a strategic Bitcoin reserve in the United States, bolsters its long-term standing despite short-term fluctuations.
