Crypto Market Slump Pushes XRP Below $1 and Bitcoin Toward $62K
Bitcoin.com reports a broad weekend rout that erased more than $130 billion, drove XRP below $1 and triggered heavy leveraged-position liquidations.
Bitcoin.com reports a broad weekend rout that erased more than $130 billion, drove XRP below $1 and triggered heavy leveraged-position liquidations. Bitcoin (BTC) is trading at $65,003.00, up 0.7% since this brief published. This is an original TLT brief synthesising 2 outlets (Bitcoin.com, Crypto.news), plus live market data, as of Sun, 15 Nov 2026 19:15:02 UTC.
The selloff combines a major market-cap decline with acute fear and $1.71 billion in overnight liquidations, affecting both major assets and leveraged market participants.
- Market capitalization losses exceeded $130 billion since Friday
- XRP traded below $1 as Bitcoin touched $61,947
- $1.71 billion in leveraged positions was liquidated overnight
- Bitcoin fell 14.80% over seven days amid extreme fear
A broad cryptocurrency selloff continued over the weekend, with 
Bitcoin.com reporting that more than $130 billion in total market value had disappeared since Friday. The outlet said 
XRP fell below $1 while Bitcoin touched an intraday low of $61,947, extending losses across the wider market.
Bitcoin.com’s headline characterized the decline as an ETF outflow story, while its detailed summary focused more heavily on market liquidation activity. The report said $1.71 billion in leveraged positions were liquidated overnight as sentiment deteriorated to extreme fear by Sunday, Nov. 15, 2026.
The supplied market data places Bitcoin at $64,557, down 2.05% over 24 hours and 14.80% over seven days, with a $1.3 trillion market capitalization. XRP stands at $0.950862, down 0.94% over 24 hours and 17.73% over seven days, with a $60.4 billion market capitalization. Total crypto market capitalization is $2.25 trillion, and the overall market is broadly lower.
The combination of a $130 billion market-value decline, sustained weekly losses and rapid liquidations indicates broad pressure rather than an isolated move in one asset. Bitcoin’s recovery from the reported $61,947 intraday low to the supplied $64,557 price and XRP’s position below $1 are the immediate levels to monitor as sentiment remains classified as extreme fear.
