It’s all fun and games until someone loses a digital wallet.
The late-year mood? A soft Q4 tape, which is to say, a gentle nudge from the market’s collective elbow. Thorn noted BTC dipped 36% below its October 6, 2025 high of $125,296, even as bullish headlines rained down like confetti at a party no one invited. 🎉
