On what seemed an ordinary Wednesday, Bitcoin, that digital gold, took a tumble-not with the grace of a ballet dancer but with the clumsiness of a drunken sailor-reaching a low not seen in three weeks. From lofty heights of nearly a hundred thousand dollars, it plummeted, as if yanked down by some invisible hand of fate. The past week’s volatility, stirred by geopolitical whispers and shadows, has driven the crypto to retrace nearly 10% of its recent gains, leaving traders with frowns and empty pockets.

In the vast expanse of the digital realm, where mortals squabble over likes and relevance, the social media colossus X has resolved to bestow a new feature upon the unwashed masses.

At the 2026 World Economic Forum in Davos, David Sacks, the White House’s crypto czar, declared with the solemnity of a man announcing the end of winter that banks are preparing to fully adopt cryptocurrency.

Well, slap my wallet and call me a blockchain! The crypto world in 2025 decided to get all grown up.

Meanwhile, in a parallel universe known as the Senate Agriculture Committee, a different drama unfolds. With the flourish of a magician pulling a rabbit from a hat, they have unveiled their Digital Asset Market Clarity Act. And lo, they plan to vote on it on January 27, as if the stars themselves have aligned for this momentous occasion. Yet, in this comedy of errors, both bills must be merged before the full Senate can cast their votes. Clarity, it appears, is a dish best served cold-and very, very late.

This little dip happened whilst the price soared to a jaw-dropping all-time high of $126,080 late last year. It’s a curious case indeed, where usually a price record would send folks scrambling for their keyboards, but here we are, witnessing the opposite.
