- Traders see a bitcoin drop to $50,000 as a bit more plausible after this week's selloff, but large bets still lean firmly against it.

Will Bitcoin Hit $50,000 Before $100,000? Kalshi Traders Now Say 14%
Bitcoin is still unlikely to hit $50,000 before $100,000 in Kalshi's "Will BTC hit $50,000 before $100,000?" market, where the 50,000 First outcome traded at 14% on Nov. 13. BTC slid to a 12-week low near $69,000 to $71,000 on Nov. 12-13 and dipped below $70,000 for the first time since August, according to investinglive. The move set off about $1.2 billion in liquidations, CoinDesk reported.

The 14% reading is up about 4 percentage points from 10% three days earlier and roughly 6 points above its period low of 8%. Reports tied the selloff to five straight days of spot bitcoin ETF outflows totaling about $1.44 billion, a hot October CPI print that raised the odds of a December Fed hike, a dollar index above 103, and Jensen Huang's resignation as Nvidia CEO, which hit tech-linked risk assets.
Why 50,000 First Is Still a Long Shot: Large Kalshi Trades Were All No
The repricing has little large-money conviction behind it. Kalshi's market page lists 27 large trades in the past week, together worth $70,244, and PredictionsMarket.com's tracker shows every one bought No and none bought Yes. The largest was 8,000 contracts on No on Nov. 1.
The price math explains the caution. From $69,000 to $71,000, bitcoin would need to fall another 28% to 30% to touch $50,000 under the CF Real-Time Index before the Dec. 31 deadline. The market resolves No if neither threshold is reached, so a sideways bitcoin also pays No holders.
Where bitcoin stands is also unsettled. GMT Eight reported that BTC briefly touched an intraday high of $84,853 as SpaceX earnings lifted tech stocks, with ETF inflows resuming and call-option demand rising. That report and the selloff coverage carry overlapping Nov. 13 datelines, and the sources do not establish whether the rebound came before or after the low.
What Could Confirm or Reverse the 50,000 First Move
Confirmation would look like a clean break below the $69,000 to $71,000 low alongside further ETF outflows, which have reached roughly $2.5 billion since Oct. 30. Analysts flagged $70,000 and about $67,000 as support levels; losing $67,000 would put bitcoin at its weakest in this stretch.
Reversal would look like a sustained move back toward the reported $85,000 level with ETF inflows holding, or large traders continuing to buy only No on the Will BTC hit $50,000 before $100,000? market. With no dated macro release named in the sources, the next checkpoint is how bitcoin trades around the $67,000 to $70,000 support zone.
