Cryptocurrency markets experienced a broad sell-off on Monday, driven by uncertainty surrounding potential Federal Reserve rate cuts and concerns over an 'AI bubble.' Bitcoin dropped 2.3%, trading just above $90,000. Layer 2 tokens and the Solana ecosystem also faced declines, losing 6.1% and 5.6%, respectively. In contrast, Near Intents, a cross-chain liquidity hub, reported a significant increase in monthly volume, reaching $2.19 billion by November 17, 2025. This marks a notable rise from October's $1.72 billion, fueled by the addition of Zcash support and the integration of Zashi, enabling private swaps to shielded ZEC.
