This alert, published via X according to multiple press reprises, quickly circulated in the crypto ecosystem.
Tesla did not touch its Bitcoin reserves in the fourth quarter of 2025. Yet, the company had to record a “digital assets” loss of about 239 million dollars after taxes, simply because the BTC price declined over the period.
The crypto market is going through a brutal digestion phase since the October shock. However, a message comes up from the professional desks. Indeed, many institutions believe that bitcoin is worth more than its current price. The idea is not new, but the timing is intriguing.
Vitalik Buterin has just reminded us of something the crypto industry forgets too quickly: being open does not mean saying yes to everything. In a fairly broad interview, the Ethereum founder sets a clear limit. A community that applauds everything that drives the price up ends up shooting itself in the foot. Not immediately. But surely.
While gold breaks records and nears $5,000 an ounce, a part of the Bitcoin camp keeps hammering the same idea. The BTC market hasn’t really started yet.

In the world of cryptocurrencies, hacks have become events that are both frequent and dramatic.

Since the beginning of this year, a key indicator of the Bitcoin derivatives markets has experienced a sharp decline. The open interest (OI) has dropped by approximately 30% from its October 2025 peak. This decrease is accompanied by a massive reduction in leverage across the derivatives ecosystem. For many analysts, this movement could signal not only the end of an intense speculative phase but also the building of a solid foundation for a possible bullish recovery.
BitMine Immersion Technologies, chaired by Tom Lee, has just deposited an additional 186,560 ETH in staking. Its total climbs to 1,530,784 ETH, about 4% of all ETH currently staked on the Beacon Chain. This figure is significant.

Ukraine has just blocked access to Polymarket, a crypto predictive markets platform. The authorities consider that the service resembles unlicensed online gambling. This decision does not only target a site. It mainly reminds that as soon as there is a stake and a possible gain on an uncertain event, the line with gambling becomes very thin. And crypto does not offer automatic immunity.
Memecoins live at a strange pace. Everything goes very fast, then nothing. On Solana, Pump.fun has been one of the main accelerators of this dynamic. But when a platform grows, every setting becomes political. Even a simple fee.
Iran now offers to sell advanced weapons systems to foreign governments in exchange for cryptos. These include ballistic missiles, armed drones, and warships. Iran aims to bypass Western financial controls and maintain its military exports despite sanctions.
Ilya Lichtenstein, involved in the theft of approximately 119,756 BTC on Bitfinex, says he was released from prison earlier than expected thanks to the First Step Act, a law passed under Donald Trump. He spent just over a year behind bars, although he had been sentenced to five years.
