Industry report: video games lose ground to gambling, crypto, and adult content

An Epyllion-commissioned report argues that major gaming markets post-pandemic show declining player bases and spend in PC/console and mobile, even as platforms like Roblox drive growth. Money and attention are shifting toward gambling, crypto, social video, AI-enabled adult content, prediction markets, and iGaming, with US and global losses in traditional gaming spend paired with rising bets and online betting. The takeaway: gaming’s post-pandemic problem isn’t just a TikTok preference, but a broader reallocation of time and dollars to alternative entertainment.

Warren urges Fed and Treasury to reject crypto bailout for billionaires

Sen. Elizabeth Warren asks the Treasury and the Federal Reserve to explicitly rule out using taxpayer dollars to bail out cryptocurrency billionaires as bitcoin slides about 50% from its October peak, warning such a rescue would enrich Trump-linked crypto interests and harm taxpayers. She also calls for stronger protections for retail crypto investors amid a selloff driven by leveraged liquidations, citing World Liberty Financial’s activity and losses among major crypto figures.

Bitcoin slides as markets cool and gold climbs

Bitcoin has fallen roughly 44% from its October peak, dropping under $63,000 for the first time in 16 months, as crypto markets remain volatile and investors swing to risk-off assets; the piece notes the decline isn’t unprecedented and that gold has rallied while Bitcoin ETF adoption and institutional interest lag, suggesting this could be a crypto winter rather than a lasting trend—history shows BTC has bounced back from prior crashes within about 1.5 years.

Bitcoin slide drags MicroStrategy to a $12.4B Q4 loss

MicroStrategy, the largest corporate Bitcoin holder, posted a $12.4 billion net loss for Q4 2025 as Bitcoin fell more than 40% from its all‑time high; revenue rose to $123 million, cash on hand was $2.3 billion, and the company’s 713,502 BTC holdings are worth about $60 billion but remain underwater given an average purchase price around $66,385. Despite the hefty loss, analysts rate MSTR as a Strong Buy with a target near $388, suggesting upside as crypto markets potentially recover, even as the stock has halved amid the downturn.

Crypto Selloff Eyes Key Support as Bitcoin Dips Near $70K

Bitcoin slid toward a break below the $70,000 level after dropping to about $70,052, with ether around $2,111 and a breach of $2,000 possible for the first time since May last year. The move comes as markets price in a hawkish Fed stance and a shrinking balance sheet, with BTC down roughly 7% for the week and about 20% on the year, while ETH is down around 30%. Analysts point to sustained ETF outflows and waning institutional interest as signs of broad crypto pessimism.

Bitcoin slips again, hovering near $72,000 as liquidity drains and risk-off sentiment grows

Bitcoin extended its drop for a second straight day, dipping to around $72,100 at one point and trading near $72,900, more than 40% below its October peak. Analysts point to a risk-off shift amid geopolitical tensions, expectations of tighter U.S. policy under a new Fed chair, and sizable institutional outflows that have thinned liquidity, weighing on prices and related crypto stocks.

Bitcoin teeters around 70k as October liquidation weighs on prices

Bitcoin teeters around 70k as October liquidation weighs on prices

Bitcoin hovered around the mid-$70,000s after the October 10 liquidation crash, its lowest since the 2024 election, and is down about 4% in 24 hours with an over 40% drop from the Oct 6 all-time high. Analysts say further downside could come if BTC breaks below $70,000, potentially targeting the $55,700–$58,200 zone as liquidity thins and moving averages come into play. The market remains pressured by heavy liquidations (about $758 million in 24 hours, nearly $7 billion in the last week) and ETF outflows, signaling a broader risk-off sentiment amid macro uncertainty.

Bitcoin slips back toward 73k as election-era gains fade

Bitcoin fell toward $73,000, erasing gains from the Trump-era rally as a broad crypto downturn persisted. A Glassnode note highlighted that about 44% of Bitcoin supply is now underwater after a roughly 30% drop, while the RSI sits near oversold levels around 30, suggesting further downside risk. Spot Bitcoin ETFs saw inflows, but derivatives markets faced heavy liquidations, with other major assets also slipping amid macro uncertainty and a looming U.S. government shutdown.

Bitcoin slips below $80K as liquidations mount and risk-off mood weighs on markets

Bitcoin fell below $80,000 for the first time since April 2025, dipping to about $74,900 as more than $2 billion in long and short liquidations hit the market. The move followed a broad risk-off shift in equities and a slide in gold and silver, with digital-asset funds also seeing outflows. Analysts are divided on the path forward, with some eyeing a short-term bottom near $70,000 while others warn of a potential slide toward $40,000 in a worst-case scenario.

Marshall shelves swipe-fee amendment in crypto bill markup

Sen. Roger Marshall agreed not to call up his amendment to crack down on credit card swipe fees during the Senate Agriculture Committee’s crypto bill markup, avoiding a clash with retailers that could jeopardize the crypto legislation. The measure, backed by Durbin and Welch, may not be brought up, and White House officials have warned that pursuing it could complicate passage of the crypto bill.

CZ’s Davos takeaway: prison, pardon, and a possible Bitcoin supercycle in 2026

Binance founder Changpeng Zhao said his four‑month prison sentence for AML controls violations and his Trump‑issued pardon have shifted his outlook. He dismissed any political motive behind the pardon, described becoming “a real free man,” and noted he does not trade crypto, instead taking a long‑term view. Zhao also said he briefly considered acquiring FTX but pulled back due to concerns over financial disclosures. Looking ahead, he suggested bitcoin could break its four‑year cycle and enter a 2026 supercycle, aided by a more pro‑crypto stance from the U.S. and other countries.
