2021-12-02

In November 2021, we released your 10 fundamental rights as a crypto user, launched our 100M EUR initiative in France, started Incubation Program Season 3 and opened the Futures Grand Tournament registration. 

Fellow Binancians,

This month we transition into full-blown winter. November’s crypto stories ranged from groundbreaking, El Salvador’s “Bitcoin City” announcement, to gloomy, crypto trading hamster Mr. Goxx’s unfortunate passing.

November Market Recap: New ATH

November marked a record-breaking bumpy month for cryptocurrencies as the total crypto market cap hit 2.97T before decreasing around 11% to ~$2.6T at the time of writing.

Bitcoin (BTC) hit a new all-time high price at ~$68,521 on Nov 10, 2021, before bumping up and down between the $50K and $60K price range. It currently trades at ~$56,841.
