About this listen
Hey folks, Crypto Willy here, your best buddy who mines, trades, and breathes crypto 24/7. Let’s break down everything hot and *high-voltage* in the Bitcoin universe for the past week, and dish out the sharpest trading and investing strategies you’ve gotta know.
First, you can’t ignore that November’s been a rocket ride for Bitcoin—hold onto your ledgers! On November 4, Statista tracked Bitcoin hitting a new all-time high above $106,500, setting the tone for a wild week. Changelly’s forecasters say the party isn’t stopping; they expect a further pump to over $123,000 by November 13, and maybe even $131,000 by mid-month. Don’t get too comfy, though: projections see some cooling into December, averaging out around $113,000. Still, considering that just a few months ago, six-figure Bitcoin seemed like wishful thinking, this rally’s been one for the record books.
Big brains like John Koudounis, CEO at Calamos, are pushing the boundaries of how people build portfolios with their new “Protected Bitcoin Strategies.” As seen in their latest whitepaper, these strategies use 80–100% downside protection so your portfolio gets Bitcoin’s upside with far less of the gut-wrenching volatility. Instead of the old-school 1–2% allocation that’s too timid for many, Calamos research suggests swapping out up to 10% of your portfolio’s old assets—stocks, bonds, even gold—for protected Bitcoin exposure. It’s a game-changer for institutions, and Koudounis says this lets everyone from risk-averse retirees to risk-loving millennials capture Bitcoin’s gains without sweating every dip.
Now, how should you play these markets? Charles Schwab lays out the basics: *Dollar-Cost Averaging* (DCA) is still king for most folks—recurring buys help smooth out those Bitcoin storms, so you’re not panic buying at the tops or selling at the bottoms. If you want broad exposure, you might look into Bitcoin ETFs or even crypto ETPs, now more mainstream than ever in 2025.
For traders who like to live life on the edge, technical analysis rules. This week has seen scalpers and swing traders flock to Bitcoin’s high volume, eyeing both momentum breakouts and mean-reversion bounces. Sure, you could go all-in on the hottest alt—Ethereum up 65% in Q3 and stablecoins rewriting the rules with the GENIUS Act—but Bitcoin remains the backbone of any serious crypto portfolio, as Bitwise points out in their recent Q3 report.
And don’t sleep on the new narrative: stablecoins and tokenization. Q3 saw stablecoin assets smash $275 billion, settling more value than Visa (no, seriously!). Ethereum, Chainlink, and Solana are having a moment too, but Bitcoin’s OG status as “digital gold” means the institutional money still flows through it first.
Before I sign off, huge thanks for tuning in to Crypto Success with your pal Crypto Willy. Check back next week for the latest—because if you blink in crypto, you miss a lifetime of news! This has been a Quiet Please production, and for more from me, head to QuietPlease Dot A I. Stay savvy and stack those sats!
