Tom Lee of Fundstrat Global Advisors presented bullish forecasts for major cryptocurrencies at Binance Blockchain Week in Dubai on December 4, 2025. He projected Bitcoin could reach $300,000 and Ethereum could surpass $20,000 within the next year. Lee cited growing tokenization adoption and Ethereum's five-year consolidation pattern as key drivers for the upside potential.

Approximately 37,000 Bitcoin options contracts with a notional value of $3.4 billion expire on December 5, with a put/call ratio of 0.94 indicating balanced positioning between bulls and bears. Ethereum options worth $667 million also expire the same day, bringing total cryptocurrency options expiry to approximately $4 billion. Max pain for Bitcoin is estimated at $91,000, while the highest open interest concentration sits at the $100,000 strike price.

Strategy has sharply reduced its Bitcoin acquisition pace, purchasing only 135 BTC in December 2025 compared to 134,000 BTC at its 2024 peak. The company raised over $1.44 billion in equity to establish a dollar reserve covering preferred stock dividends and bond interest for 12 to 24 months. CryptoQuant data show monthly acquisitions declined from 134,000 BTC during the 2024 peak to 9,100 BTC in November 2025.

Ethereum reached $3,230 on December 5, 2025, its highest level in three weeks, driven by accumulation from wallets holding 1,000 to 10,000 ETH. Data show the rally coincided with the successful Fusaka upgrade deployment on December 4, which enhanced layer-1 performance and expanded blob capacity. The network recorded 190,000 new wallet addresses in a single day.

Bitcoin climbed back above $93,000 during Wednesday morning trading in Asia, less than 48 hours after dropping to $84,000. The cryptocurrency has recouped all losses from the recent decline and reached a key resistance level. Market sentiment has turned positive following the rebound.

Approximately 147,000 Bitcoin options contracts with a notional value of $13.4 billion are scheduled to expire on November 28, market data show.

Europe's largest asset manager Amundi has launched a tokenized share of its money market fund, AMUNDI FUNDS CASH EUR, on the Ethereum blockchain. The first transaction was recorded on November 4. CACEIS is providing the tokenization infrastructure and digital platform for subscriptions and redemptions.

Bitcoin's recovery attempt has stalled around $87,500-$88,000 after dropping below $81,000, prompting debate over whether a bottom has formed. Bearish social sentiment, negative MVRV ratios, and six consecutive weeks of whale selling suggest further downside risk. Analysts note a short-term bounce above $90,000 remains possible, though momentum indicators point to continued weakness.

Ether is trading near $2,800, a price zone that has acted as both support and resistance throughout the current market cycle. Analyst Daan Crypto Trades noted on November 24, 2025, that bulls must defend this level to prevent further decline, with potential support at $2,170 if the zone breaks. The asset traded at $2,930 after recovering from a Friday dip below $2,700, remaining approximately 40% below its all-time high.
