Bitcoin approaches $100K amid market response to Fed signals

Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates – 5 November 2025, Bitcoin briefly traded below the $100,000 mark yesterday, reaching its lowest level since June, as the broader crypto market reacted to the outcome of the recent U.S. Federal Reserve meeting.

The move followed comments by Fed Chairman Jerome Powell, who signalled that a December interest rate cut is “not a foregone conclusion”, tempering investor optimism for looser monetary policy in the near term.

According to market data, liquidations totalling approximately $915 million since the start of November have further amplified selling pressure across crypto assets. Peters added that while the correction may unsettle some investors, volatility of this scale is not unusual for Bitcoin.

Despite the recent decline, Peters noted that Bitcoin remains in a long-term uptrend, forming higher highs and higher lows.
