Bitcoin Crashes Below Ninety Thousand Dollars: Extreme Fear Grips Crypto Market (Emergency Update)

Welcome to Generational Wealth — Your pathway from knowledge to legacy.

If you thought crypto couldn’t get any scarier… think again. Bitcoin just broke below the $90,000 level for the first time in 7 months, and the rest of the market is bleeding deeper red than we’ve seen all year. This is your emergency crypto update for November 18, 2025.

🔻 The Market Correction Intensifies: 3 Straight Days of Red

The total crypto market cap dropped another 1.7%, now hovering around $3.13 Trillion. This marks the third consecutive day of sharp correction, and sentiment has officially flipped into panic mode.

  • Bitcoin hit a low of $89,426 before a small rebound

  • BTC is now trading around $91,000, down more than 5% in a single day

  • This move wipes out all of Bitcoin’s gains for 2025 so far

  • BTC is now down 27% from its record high above $126,000

📉 Ethereum & Altcoins Take Heavy Damage

Bitcoin wasn’t alone in taking a beating — the selling pressure spread across the entire market.

  • Ethereum fell below the key $3,000 mark, now near $3,038, down 5.6%

  • XRP is down 3.8% to around $2.13

  • Solana dropped 3.2%, while BNB slipped 3%

  • Layer-2 tokens were crushed, falling more than 7% as a sector

    • Starknet plunged 21%

    • SOON collapsed over 30%

This was not a normal pullback — this was a widespread sentiment collapse.

😱 Fear Dominates the Market: Extreme Levels Not Seen Since Luna

The Fear & Greed Index has collapsed to between 11 and 14, a range only seen during major crash events like Luna in 2022. Traders are liquidating, leverage is unwinding, and even long-term holders are flinching.

🧠 What Triggered the Panic?

This drop wasn’t caused by a crypto event — it came from traditional markets.

  • Stronger-than-expected U.S. economic data reduced expectations for future Federal Reserve rate cuts

  • That triggered a broad risk-off move across stocks and crypto

  • Billions in leverage were liquidated as traders were forced out of positions

  • Institutional desks have reportedly reduced exposure

  • Retail investors and recent buyers are taking profits and running for the exits

Even a bold tweet from Gemini co-founder Cameron Winklevoss — calling this “your last chance to buy Bitcoin under $90,000” — couldn’t shift momentum.

📊 What Happens Next?

Some analysts are eyeing $85,000 — and even $80,000 — as potential downside targets if the correction continues.

Others believe a local bottom may be forming, as short-term holders capitulate while long-term holders accumulate quietly.

Either way — volatility is extreme and risk management is everything right now.
