Bitcoin has lost 30% of its value since October 2024, when it was trading at over $126,000, but is now trading below $90,000.
On November 18, 2025, Bitcoin in Asia was trading at $89,953. It was the first time it had fallen below $90,000 in seven months.
Joshua Chu, a director of the Hong Kong Web3 Association in Taiwan, said that one of the reasons for the decline in the value of the cryptocurrency was that buyers were selling it.
“Bitcoin selling is happening a lot. It could make things worse as large corporations and investors continue to sell Bitcoins they bought when its value rose. This raises concerns that a loss in the value of the cryptocurrency could have an impact on the financial and stock markets in general.”
Financial experts have indicated that this is generally due to the volatility of the global financial and stock markets, as shares of various companies are declining after a long period of growth.
Another reason for the loss of value of Bitcoin is that the US Federal Reserve has raised its base interest rate, making its loans more expensive, affecting the financial and stock markets, and investors in Bitcoin do not know whether the US will reduce this base interest rate in the future.
The loss of value of the cryptocurrency has also occurred in another currency called Ether, which has already lost 40% of its value in August this year.
Investors in this sector are also concerned that Bitcoin could continue to decline sharply, as happened earlier this year, affecting the entire financial and stock market when it once fell from a value of $70,000 to $55,000.
There are also concerns that as the market continues to fluctuate, Bitcoin could fall to a value of $75,000 in the near future.
