Bitcoin Drops To $103,000 – Morgan Stanley Analysts Warn Of ‘Fall Season’ In Four-Year Cycle

The apex cryptocurrency declined nearly 1.6% to $103,559.17 at the time of writing, according to CoinMarketCap data, while Ethereum fell 3.1% to $3,448.26 and XRP fell 2.4% to $2.39.

Bitcoin (BTC) dipped below $100,000 for the second time this week as macroeconomic pressure continued to weigh on the cryptocurrency amid the ongoing government shutdown.Early Friday trade saw&nbsp;<a href="http://stocktwits.com/coins/bitcoin">BTC’s price</a> fall more than 3% to $99,800, according to CoinGecko data, after first dipping to $99,607 on Tuesday. The last time Bitcoin hit these levels was in late June, earlier this year.&nbsp;On Stocktwits, retail sentiment around the apex cryptocurrency dipped to ‘neutral’ from ‘bullish’ over the past day, as chatter remained at ‘high’ levels. The selloff mirrors weakness in AI stocks and broader tech indices, with the Nasdaq declining.<figure class="image"><img style="aspect-ratio:1252/121;" src="https://news.stocktwits-cdn.com/Screenshot_2025_11_07_084645_png_7f6ac2c261.webp" alt="Screenshot 2025-11-07 084645.png" width="1252" height="121"><figcaption>BTC retail sentiment and message volume on November 7 as of 8:45 a.m. ET | Source: Stocktwits</figcaption></figure>One bearish trader on the platform speculated that perhaps Bitcoin’s support level was now becoming the new resistance level. <stembedurl>https://stocktwits.com/Jutski_bipolar/message/635331782</stembedurl><h2 class="st-heading-2">Is This Bitcoin Bottom?</h2>According to crypto trader Scott Melker, known on social media as ‘The Wolf Of All Streets’, the bounce could be deceptive.

According to the firm, put-call volumes indicate little confidence in a stable bottom. “Bitcoin is retesting the $100,000 level after short-term holders have capitulated.

Bitcoin Dips Below $100,000 Twice In A Week 	– Is The Bottom In?

The last time Bitcoin hit these levels was in late June, earlier this year. 

<ul class="summary-bullets"><li>In the last 17 years, Bitcoin has gone from Satoshi’s Genesis Block to a $126,000 digital asset.</li><li>Bitcoin’s journey reflects a philosophical tension between decentralization and institutional adoption, with market capitalization surpassing $2.2 trillion.</li><li>Once designed to bypass intermediaries, Bitcoin now serves as a treasury asset, ETF investment, and hedge in the debasement trade.</li></ul>Seventeen years after the publication of Bitcoin’s (BTC) white paper, the cryptocurrency has grown far beyond its original ethos.&nbsp;Satoshi Nakamoto pitched “a purely peer-to-peer version of electronic cash” that would eliminate intermediaries and bypass traditional financial gatekeepers. The timestamped headline on the Genesis Block, mined on January 3, 2009, read, "Chancellor on brink of second bailout for banks." It was a direct critique of a system that had erased wealth while protecting institutional actors during 2008 financial crisis.Today, that radical vision has been partially co-opted by the very institutions Bitcoin was designed to circumvent.<h2 class="st-heading-2">Centralization Forces Enter the Fray</h2>Strategy’s pivot in 2020 set the stage for this shift. Today, over 100 publicly listed companies across 29 countries hold more than 1.6 million Bitcoin, valued at $183 billion, according to&nbsp;<a class="st-link-external" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.coingecko.com/en/treasuries/bitcoin">data</a> from CoinGecko. Bitwise data&nbsp;<a class="st-link-external" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://x.com/BitwiseInvest/status/1978221667605176785/photo/1">shows</a> there are almost 40% more public companies holding Bitcoin today than there were three months ago.Regulatory frameworks, including the GENIUS, CLARITY, and Anti-CBDC Acts, have further normalized institutional participation.&nbsp;Exchange-traded funds (ETFs) and digital asset treasuries (DATs) provide regulated channels for traditional investors, introducing centralized control and benchmarks to a system originally designed to bypass them.&nbsp;<h2 class="st-heading-2">Decentralization Resists And Evolves</h2>Despite centralization pressures, decentralized exchanges (DEXs) continue to grow. According&nbsp;<a class="st-link-external" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://defillama.com/">to</a> DefiLlama, DEXs recorded a historic monthly trading volume of over $585 billion in October 2025, surpassing the previous peak set in January 2025 during the emergence of meme tokens TRUMP and MELANIA.&nbsp;Meanwhile, macro uncertainty has elevated Bitcoin’s role in the “<a href="https://stocktwits.com/news-articles/markets/equity/bitcoin-was-the-only-answer-to-the-debt-crisis-strive-ceo/cLGFCkMR3xl">debasement trade</a>,” with investors using it as a hedge against dollar weakness. The surge above $126,000 in early October shows Bitcoin’s dual identity, explained in NYDIG's latest&nbsp;<a class="st-link-external" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.nydig.com/research/the-factors-driving-gold-and-bitcoin">research</a> report. It showed that Bitcoin tends to rise when the U.S. dollar weakens and liquidity improves.&nbsp;<h2 class="st-heading-2">Market Growth Reflects Philosophical Shift</h2>More than a decade since the paper was published, Bitcoin’s market capitalization has surged past $2.2 trillion, with the asset reaching all-time highs above $126,000 per coin, earlier this month – driven, in part, by institutional adoption of the apex cryptocurrency. On Friday,&nbsp;<a href="http://stocktwits.com/symbol/BTC.X">Bitcoin’s price</a> gained 2.1% in the last 24 hours, trading at around $110,4000. On Stocktwits, retail sentiment around the token improved to ‘bullish’ from ‘neutral’ territory over the past day, as chatter rose to ‘normal’ from ‘low’ levels.&nbsp;Bitcoin’s 17-year journey is a tug-of-war.

Bitcoin Turns 17: Price, Debasement Trade, And The Centralization-Decentralization Divide

Bitcoin’s 17-year journey has been a tug-of-war between its decentralized, anti-establishment origins and growing institutional adoption.

<ul class="summary-bullets"><li>The company ended Q3 with 640,031 BTC valued at $73.2 billion.</li><li>October Bitcoin purchases totaled 778 BTC, the slowest monthly accumulation in over a year.</li><li>Cantor Fitzgerald lowered its price target on Strategy to $560 from $697 while maintaining an ‘Overweight’ rating.</li></ul>Strategy (MSTR) shares gained in morning trade on Friday after the company beat expectations for its third-quarter (Q3) results and executives outlined plans to expand the company’s credit operations internationally, even as Wall Street analysts trimmed their price targets.<a href="http://stocktwits.com/symbol/MSTR">MSTR’s stock</a> was up 3.6% at market open and was among the top trending tickers on Stocktwits. Retail sentiment on the platform around MSTR jumped to ‘extremely bullish’ from ‘neutral’ territory over the past day, as chatter surged to ‘extremely high’ from ‘normal’ levels.&nbsp;President and CEO Phong Le said the firm is “actively laying the groundwork for credit securities in international jurisdictions,” aiming to position Strategy as a dominant global credit issuer. The company’s strategy centers on leveraging Bitcoin as a form of digital capital to issue structured credit products, effectively creating a “credit factory” for investors worldwide.<blockquote>This digital treasury model allows us to create a digital credit factory. If you look at the company, what we're doing is we're manufacturing USD yield for credit investors, and we're delivering them that yield in the form of ROC dividend.&nbsp;– Michael Saylor, Executive Chairman, Strategy</blockquote><h2 class="st-heading-2">Wall Street Cuts Price Targets</h2>BTIG lowered its price target to $630 from $700, maintaining a ‘Buy’ rating. The firm highlighted Strategy’s efforts to broaden its addressable market through the launch of new credit products outside the U.S., a move seen as key to scaling the company’s business model.&nbsp;Cantor Fitzgerald also trimmed its target to $560 from $697, keeping an ‘Overweight’ rating, citing slower October Bitcoin purchases. The company added only 778 BTC during the month, the smallest increase in more than a year, which Cantor said limits the accretive potential of its capital markets strategy.The company reported revenue of $129 million, above the estimated $117 million by Wall Street, according to Koyfin data.

BTC Price Climbs As Investors Await CPI, Trade Talks Between Trump And Xi

Binance Coin and Ethereum led gains among altcoins, outperforming Bitcoin.

<ul class="summary-bullets"><li>Core Scientific derives a bulk of its total revenue from digital asset self-mining and hosted mining.</li><li>Core Scientific shareholders are scheduled to vote on the deal to be bought by CoreWeave in a special meeting to be held on Oct. 30.</li><li>CEO Michael Intrator reportedly clarified in an interview this week that CoreWeave would not sweeten its offer.</li></ul>Core Scientific (CORZ) stock is on track to rebound from Wednesday’s steep sell-off, with retail sentiment remaining upbeat. Following Wednesday’s 7.4%&nbsp;plunge,&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/symbol/CORZ">CORZ stock</a>&nbsp;is headed for its worst week since early August.Dover, Delaware-based Core Scientific, a data center infrastructure and crypto mining company, has agreed to be taken over by Nvidia-backed CoreWeave (CRWV) in an all-stock transaction. Core Scientific shareholders would receive 0.1235 newly-issued Class A common stock for every CORZ stock they hold, translating to a total deal value of about $9 billion compared to Core Scientific’s current market capitalization of $5.471 billion.Buoyed by artificial intelligence (AI)-related demand for infrastructure and the CoreWeave deal, the stock has been on a broader uptrend since the post-tariff lows seen in early April. The stock had hit an all-time high of $20.36 (intraday) on Oct. 16 but has since retreated from the peak.<h2 class="st-heading-2">What’s Ailing CORZ Stock&nbsp;</h2>The recent weakness in Core Scientific stock may be partly attributed to the crypto market's weakness amid an uncertain geopolitical backdrop. <a href="https://stocktwits.com/coins/bitcoin">Bitcoin</a> has lost about 14% from its Oct. 6 peak of $126,198.07, indicating it is in correction territory.Core Scientific derives a bulk of its total revenue from digital asset self-mining and hosted mining. The second-quarter results released in early August showed that roughly 87% of the total revenue of $78.6 million was derived from these two segments. Colocation revenue related to high-performance computing hosting contributed only $10.6.Additionally, proxy advisory firms ISS and Glass Lewis have opposed the CoreWeave deal, urging Core Scientific shareholders to vote against the latter’s sale to the former.In a statement, Glass Lewis said, “The market's prolonged discount of the deal's implied value to Core Scientific's share price—combined with the absence of any mechanisms to mitigate downside risk—indicates that the proposed exchange does not adequately compensate Core Scientific shareholders for the risks inherent in the CoreWeave consideration.”&nbsp; Two Seas Capital, one of the largest Core Scientific shareholders, has also opposed the proposed transaction.Responding to the development, CoreWeave said in a statement released late Wednesday that it disagreed with the proxy firms’ rejection call. “While neither ISS nor Glass Lewis questions the strategic merit of the transaction, both base their recommendations largely on the current Core Scientific stock price and overlook the risks of a standalone Core Scientific,” it said.In a CNBC interview CEO, CoreWeave CEO Michael Intrator&nbsp;<a class="st-link-external" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.cnbc.com/2025/10/21/coreweave-ceo-on-core-scientific-deal-as-shareholder-opposition-rises.html">said</a> earlier this week that Core Scientific would be a “nice to have” rather than a necessity, adding that CoreWeave would not sweeten its offer.<h2 class="st-heading-2">What Retail’s Feeling About Core Scientific Stock</h2>On Stocktwits, retail sentiment toward Core Scientific stock remained ‘bullish’ as of early Thursday, although down from the ‘extremely bullish’ sentiment seen from a week ago. The message volume on the CORZ stream remained ‘high.’A user expects Two Seas to call a special shareholder meeting if the merger proposal is rejected, to remove the full slate of directors and name a new CEO.<stembedurl>https://stocktwits.com/Rayyleee/message/633370800</stembedurl>Another user, however, said there is no future for Core Scientific if the deal does not go through.<stembedurl>https://stocktwits.com/Cloud_Data/message/633352356</stembedurl>Core Scientific shareholders are scheduled to vote on the deal in a special meeting to be held on Oct. 30. The original timeline for the completion of the agreement is the fourth quarter.In overnight trading, Core Scientific stock rose 1.12%, according to Yahoo Finance. The stock has gained about 27% so far this year.For updates and corrections, email newsroom[at]stocktwits[dot]com.Read Next:&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/news-articles/markets/equity/trump-administration-reportedly-mulls-quantum-investments/cLG4PlHR3q6">IONQ, QBTS, RGTI: Retail Traders Gear Up For ‘Explosive’ Moves As Trump Administration Reportedly Mulls Quantum Investments</a>
