Derived from Insidebitcoins, US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent made a surprise visit to the grand opening of the Bitcoin bar PubKey in Washington, DC, on November 20, 2025, as Bitcoin dropped more than 9% to below $83k. The visit was seen as a positive sign for Bitcoin's mainstream acceptance. Bessent, who has been viewed as crypto-friendly since his nomination in late 2024, has supported several crypto-related bills and expressed admiration for Bitcoin's resilience. Despite the positive sentiment, the broader crypto market faced significant pressure, with over $1.92 billion in liquidations reported.
