INSIDE THE SELLOFF: Bitcoin, Sanctions, & The Liquidity Drain

In this episode, Nik breaks down Bitcoin’s sharp fall through $100,000 and explains how a surge in volatility across stocks, bonds, and the dollar has triggered a broad liquidity drain. He explores the Luke Oil divestiture pressure, Treasury sanctions, and why forced asset sales are pulling capital out of risk markets. Nik walks through the TBL Liquidity Index, the new sell signal triggered in late October, and the critical $87,000 to $88,000 support area on Bitcoin that will define whether the bull trend stays intact. He compares Bitcoin with gold, reviews stock market stress, and looks ahead to income-driven liquidity tailwinds expected in 2026.Links:https://x.com/LeveredUSTs/status/1990500503848095833?s=20https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-11-14/lukoil-talks-to-bidders-for-global-assets-to-avert-supply-issues?sref=ieet9cdIhttps://www.reuters.com/business/energy/us-paves-way-talks-sale-lukoils-foreign-assets-2025-11-14/📚 Bitcoin Age is here, order yours today: https://a.co/d/5gau08H📊 The Bitcoin Layer is a bitcoin and global macroeconomic research firm. ▶️ Subscribe and turn on notifications for TBL on YouTube.📚 Subscribe to TBL’s research letter: https://thebitcoinlayer.com/subscribe🎧 Subscribe to The Bitcoin Layer on your favorite podcast platform.📱 Follow TBL on X: https://twitter.com/TheBitcoinLayer📩 Join the official TBL channel on Telegram: https://t.me/thebitcoinlayerofficial🧢 Use code TBLYT10 for 10% off all The Bitcoin Layer Merch at http://TheBitcoinLayer.com/merch⛓️ ₿lock Height 924081⚡ Contribute to The Bitcoin Layer via Lightning Network: [email protected] Bhatia's Twitter: https://twitter.com/timevalueofbtcResearcher Demian Schatt's Twitter: https://x.com/demianschattLead Statistician Augustine Carrasco Twitter: https://x.com/AugustineCarrB The Bitcoin Layer and its guests do not provide investment advice.
