Bitcoin is taking a moment to breathe after a strong rally earlier this month. As of today, BTC is trading around $105,900, down just over 1.5% in the last 24 hours. Market analysts say this dip reflects short-term profit-taking, but the long-term outlook remains bullish with predictions still targeting the $200K mark before year-end.
Meanwhile, the U.S. political landscape has thrown its weight behind digital assets. Speaking at the Bitcoin 2025 Conference in Las Vegas, Vice President JD Vance announced the administration’s full support for crypto innovation. He emphasized that under President Trump’s leadership, the government will push for clearer crypto regulations through the proposed GENIUS Act, which focuses on stablecoin oversight and blockchain adoption.
In other major news, the collapsed crypto exchange FTX has started its second round of creditor repayments, distributing over $5 billion in stablecoins to thousands of affected users — one of the largest crypto settlement efforts in history.
Also making waves is Japanese investment firm Metaplanet, which is issuing zero-interest bonds to fund further Bitcoin acquisitions. The company has publicly set a goal to hold 10,000 BTC by the end of 2025, doubling down on its pro-Bitcoin corporate strategy.
And finally, Binance Alpha has officially listed Assisterr AI (ASRR), a rising AI-powered crypto token. The listing includes an exclusive airdrop campaign for early adopters, signaling growing interest at the intersection of AI and blockchain.
As the market digests these developments, all eyes are on Bitcoin’s next move — whether it stabilizes above $100K or launches another climb toward new all-time highs.
