Breaking News

Taiwan to Explore Bitcoin as Part of National Reserves

Taiwan’s govt, backed by Dr. Ju-chun Ko, has announced a 3-stage plan to study $BTC as a strategic reserve asset.

🔹 Stage 1: Research Bitcoin’s role as a reserve
🔹 Stage 2: Draft new regulations (within 6 months)
🔹 Stage 3: Pilot using seized Bitcoin held by authorities

If implemented, Taiwan could become one of Asia’s first nations to hold Bitcoin at the sovereign level.

Currently, Taiwan holds $577B in reserves, mostly in U.S. Treasuries and 423 tonnes of gold. A small $BTC allocation could diversify and hedge against USD exposure & inflation risk.

Industry voices like Samson Mow (@Excellion) call it a “pivotal step” for Bitcoin adoption among nations.

Swing or Sprint – Which Style Actually Fits You?

Day traders live on adrenaline: quick moves, split-second calls, constant focus. One hesitation and the opportunity’s gone. It’s not just trading; it’s a mental marathon.

Meanwhile, swing traders play the long game. They plan, position, and let the market move. Less noise, more patience, but still a test of emotional control when trades drag on or flirt with stop-loss levels.

Your ideal trading style shouldn’t be about charts or timeframes but rather focused on how you think, feel, and handle pressure.

So, which game fits your headspace: the sprint or the chess match?

Macro-Economic Update

Key Data This Week:

China Breaks Free From Deflation, and The Trend Has Reversed

China’s inflation finally turned positive in October, rising 0.2% year-over-year — the first increase since June and the strongest since January. The uptick was driven by stronger non-food inflation, boosted holiday spending, and easing declines in food prices. Core inflation reached a 20-month high at 1.2%, signaling improving underlying demand.

 Overall, the data suggest early signs of stabilization after months of disinflation.

Wallet Inflows & Outflows Weekly Report

Top 2 Cryptocurrencies (BTC, ETH)

Massive BTC & ETH Exits Signal Deep Trouble

This week delivered a harsh blow to the crypto market, marked by heavy outflows from major Bitcoin and Ethereum wallets, levels not seen in a long time.

Bitcoin recorded nearly uninterrupted days of large-scale withdrawals, with November 14 showing an especially dramatic spike. Ethereum followed a similar pattern, though with smaller volumes.

Market sentiment has turned sharply negative, with whales exiting en masse and daily price drops becoming the norm. The overall atmosphere is tense and getting worse.

Economic Trends Affecting Crypto Markets

The Hidden Liquidity Crisis Triggering This Week’s Crypto Selloff

The crypto market came under renewed pressure as global liquidity tightened and risk assets were hit by structural fiscal headwinds. A major driver was the swelling balance in the U.S. Department of the Treasury’s General Account (TGA) amid the U.S. government shutdown, which pulled roughly US$200 billion out of financial markets, constricting funding for risk-seeking assets.

At the same time, corporate crypto-treasury activity shifted into less-liquid fringe tokens, raising volatility fears across the ecosystem.

These twin effects, liquidity withdrawal and structural rotation of crypto holders, amplified the recent outflows from major wallets and underpinned a sharp tilt in investor sentiment toward caution.

Key Macroeconomic Insights

Global Markets Steady as U.S. Shutdown Ends and Policy Uncertainty Persists

President Trump signed the funding bill on 12 Nov 2025, reopening federal services and restoring pay after a 43-day lapse, a relief that removed a major near-term drag on growth and consumer confidence.

At the same time, Fed speakers signalled caution about moving too quickly on rate cuts amid sticky inflation risks, keeping markets uncertain about the timing of policy easing.

The lapse forced urgent attention to data integrity; officials were urged to prioritise the release and possible recovery of missing employment and CPI data, complicating the interpretation of U.S. macro prints.

Offshore, scheduled GDP and labour releases in the eurozone and UK kept global growth scrutiny high, while risk sentiment swung with inflation expectations and commodity moves, leaving equity and fixed-income markets notably volatile into the weekend.
