Bitcoin Analysts Predict Recovery to $105K Despite Holiday Slump Bitcoin is struggling to stay above $100,000 due to low market activity during the holidays. However, analysts expect it to recover to $105,000 after Christmas when liquidity returns, driven by macroeconomic trends. Since reaching a record high of $108,300 on Dec. 17, Bitcoin has fallen by 9.7%, mainly due to holiday-related inactivity, according to Ryan Lee, an analyst at Bitget Research. The upcoming U.S. presidential inauguration, expected to positively impact cryptocurrency regulations and economic policies, may also boost Bitcoin’s performance. Challenges remain, such as a decline in Bitcoin ETF investments, with U.S. spot ETFs seeing $338 million in outflows over four days. Despite this, positive funding rates and strong buyer activity suggest optimism for Bitcoin’s future. Some experts predict Bitcoin could reach $160,000 by 2025, supported by improving economic conditions and market trends. #Bitcoin #Business #Analysis #Bitcoin Price #Bitcoin Analysis #Adoption #Donald Trump #Price Analysis #Bitcoin ETF

#news Cryptocurrency mining and artificial intelligence (AI) are driving a huge demand for electricity in North America, putting a strain on energy grids. These industries use a lot of power for their operations, such as data centers for AI and machines for mining cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin. As these sectors grow, energy companies are finding it harder to predict and manage electricity use, which could lead to power shortages in the future. Key Points: 1. Growing Electricity Use: Cryptocurrency mining and AI data centers need a lot of power. Crypto mining uses more power when prices are high, making energy demand unpredictable. AI centers consume energy for processing, cooling, and storing data. 2. Challenges for Energy Grids: Sudden changes in power use can disrupt the grid, especially during hot summer months. Areas like Texas, which have many crypto and AI facilities, face higher risks of energy shortages. These industries can cause problems similar to renewable energy sources like solar or wind, where supply and demand can fluctuate. 3. Future Risks: If crypto and AI continue to grow, the risk of power outages and grid instability will increase, especially during peak demand times or system failures. 4. Solutions Being Explored: Better Planning: Improving tools to predict energy demand and prepare for future growth. Demand Management: Encouraging businesses to use less power during critical times. Legislation: States like Texas are introducing laws to better track energy use and improve reliability. Renewable Energy: Some companies are shifting to green energy sources like wind and solar to reduce their impact on the grid. For example, a company called Marathon Digital recently bought a wind farm in Texas to power its crypto mining operations more sustainably. Overall, managing the rising energy demand from these industries is becoming crucial to keep the lights on in North America. #Blockchain #Mining #Business #Energy Consumption #Adoption #North America #Bitcoin Mining #United States #AI #Data Center #Regulation

Crypto Event Attendee Data Sold Online, Creating Scam Risks Lists containing the personal information of people who attended cryptocurrency events are being sold online. These lists include private details that could make the attendees vulnerable to scams and phishing attacks. What Information is Being Sold? The lists reportedly contain: Full names and phone numbers. Nationalities, job titles, and companies. Social media profiles (personal and business). Details about the tickets purchased, such as ticket type and purchase date. Crypto wallet addresses. Messages attendees sent to event organizers during registration. Information about the operating system used to buy tickets. Social media follower counts. How Was the Data Collected? The data was likely collected through online registration forms for conferences or related events. Some events use ticketing platforms like lu.ma, which sometimes require linking social media accounts. Who is Selling the Data? The seller shared samples of data from 60-100 participants per event on Telegram. These lists appeared to come from multiple events held in Southeast Asia, India, and other regions, mostly in late 2024. The seller seemed to act as a reseller, possibly obtaining the data from an organized international operation. AI analysis and other clues suggest the seller and data compiler may be Russian. What Events Were Affected? The data samples included information from various events. One significant case involved the AIBC conference in Malta (November 2024), where a list of 1,700 attendees was being sold. Initially priced at $4,000, the seller reduced it to $650. The seller also claimed to have data from Blockchain Fest and DevCon. Why is This Data Valuable? The seller claims the data is for marketing purposes, but experts warn it could be misused by scammers to: Send phishing emails or malicious links. Use social engineering tactics to trick people into revealing more sensitive information.

Bitcoin prices have taken a hit in December, falling 14.5% from their high earlier this month. The cryptocurrency dropped to $92,442 on Dec. 23, marking its lowest level in four weeks. Although it briefly rose above $95,000, it fell back to $94,000 on Dec. 24 and has declined over 11% in the past week. Historically, Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies often experience a "Santa Claus rally" – a price increase during the last week of December and the first days of January. However, this year, hopes for such a rally are fading due to Bitcoin's poor performance this month. In previous years like 2016 and 2020, Bitcoin saw strong gains during the holiday season, especially before market peaks. According to a study by CoinGecko, crypto markets enjoyed a Santa Claus rally in 8 of the last 10 years, with market values increasing by up to 11.8% between Dec. 27 and Jan. 2. However, no rally occurred in 2021, the year of the last market peak, when Bitcoin dropped 26% from its high by Christmas and continued to decline into 2022. This year, 2025 is expected to be the next peak year for Bitcoin, based on its usual four-year cycle. Additionally, some analysts believe that Bitcoin’s recent poor performance and low investor sentiment could signal a potential recovery soon. On Dec. 27, large options contracts worth $18 billion will expire, possibly bringing volatility to the crypto market. $BTC
