Elon Musk's Tesla reported an $80 million gain on its Bitcoin holdings in the third quarter of 2025, benefiting from the crypto market's rebound without making any new trades. According to Tesla's Q3 filing released on Wednesday, the electric vehicle maker continues to hold 11,509 BTC - valued at roughly $1.31 billion as of September 30, up from $1.23 billion in Q2. The increase came entirely from Bitcoin's price appreciation, not from additional purchases or sales.

Bitcoin remains trapped within a bearish structure, forming successive lower highs and lower lows that keep momentum tilted to the downside. For any meaningful reversal to take hold, the asset needs to reclaim and hold solidly above the $111K threshold, which is a level that would help rebuild the confidence required for trend stabilization. Until then, market rallies are likely to be viewed as temporary corrective moves within a broader downtrend.

Aureo, formerly known as Swapido, has raised $1.1 million in pre-seed funding from Early Riders to develop a specialized Bitcoin platform targeting high-net-worth individuals (HNWIs), family offices, and companies in Mexico and Latin America. The funding, announced on October 20, 2025, will support the creation of a white-glove service focused on secure Bitcoin transactions, custody, and advisory for institutional and long-term holders.

Bitcoin rose back above USD 110,000 on Monday, extending its rebound from last week's lows as risk appetite improved on hopes of a de-escalation in US-China trade tensions. The cryptocurrency has posted gains for three consecutive sessions as investors reacted to signs of renewed diplomatic engagement, improving investor sentiment and bolstering riskier assets like Bitcoin. US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent and Chinese Vice Premier He Lifeng are set to meet in Malaysia this week,

In a significant development for global financial markets, Roxom has launched Bitcoin-denominated perpetual futures, enabling traders to benchmark and trade major assets like the S&P 500 and Gold directly in Bitcoin terms. This innovation marks the first time that traditional assets, historically priced in dollars, can be measured against Bitcoin as a unit of account. The launch comes at a time when de-dollarization trends are accelerating globally, with central banks diversifying reserves and BRICS nations increasingly settling trade outside the US dollar system.

Our new Bitcoin Treasury Tracker provides day-by-day insight into how much Bitcoin these major public and private treasury companies hold, when they've accumulated, and how their positions have evolved. These treasuries now collectively hold over 1 million BTC, a staggering sum representing over 5% of the total circulating supply. The scale of this accumulation has been a cornerstone of Bitcoin's current cycle strength. However, some of these companies are facing increasing pressure as their equity valuations struggle to keep pace with the Bitcoin price itself.

Bitcoin price has sharply reversed course after reaching a record high above $126,000 just two weeks ago - and the downturn isn't letting up. The price has now slipped into the $104,000 range, extending a multi-day decline that's driven market sentiment to its most cautious level in months. Currently, the bitcoin price is is $105,485, but the price was as low as $103,516 in early morning trading on some exchanges.

"We at Tether believe that Bitcoin, and the free, open-source software that powers it, are indispensable to a freer and decentralized future,"

The Tesla and SpaceX CEO broke a three-year quiet streak on bitcoin early Tuesday, commenting on an X post from financial outlet ZeroHedge that tied surging gold, silver, and Bitcoin prices to global monetary "debasement" driven by artificial intelligence spending. "True," Musk replied. "That is why Bitcoin is based on energy: you can issue fake fiat currency, and every government in history has done so, but it is impossible to fake energy."

Over the weekend, after President Donald Trump unexpectedly announced a 100% tariff on all imports from China, effective November 1, 2025 (or earlier if Beijing continues its export restrictions on rare earth materials), global risk assets immediately tumbled. Bitcoin reacted most sharply, plunging nearly 17%, from around $122,000 to approximately $107,500 within a few hours, before quickly rebounding to around $115,000 by early Monday trading.

Venezuelan opposition leader María Corina Machado has been awarded the 2025 Nobel Peace Prize, recognized for what the Norwegian Nobel Committee called her "tireless work promoting democratic rights for the people of Venezuela." But for many in the Bitcoin community, the win carries another layer of meaning - because Machado isn't just a democracy activist. She's also one of few (but growing) global political figures who has openly embraced Bitcoin as a tool of resistance against authoritarianism.

The broader crypto market is under pressure. Bitcoin slipped roughly 2% over the past 24 hours, retreating from recent highs. That drop is rippling into crypto-linked equities - Strategy is one of the most exposed. Strategy (MSTR) is currently trading at $319.84 Strategy, co-founded by Michael Saylor, reported $3.9 billion in fair value gains for the third quarter of this year.

Some might argue that we're committing too little too late; others will point out the volatility and speculative nature of the investment. Yet, given the FSIL's particular profile and mission, the fund's management board concluded that a 1% allocation strikes the right balance, while sending a clear message about bitcoin's long-term potential.

Opendoor CEO Kaz Nejatian put out a social media hint that his company may soon allow the purchase of homes using Bitcoin or other crypto. In a reply on X to a user asking whether Opendoor would permit home buying with Bitcoin or crypto, Nejatian responded, "We will. Just need to prioritize it." The comment, though brief, sparked speculation that the housing company might add crypto payments into its platform.

There are several key drivers for the bullish reversal. Macroeconomic uncertainty - including the ongoing U.S. government shutdown - has led investors toward alternatives like bitcoin, historically seen as a hedge against traditional financial risks. Geoffrey Kendrick, head of digital assets at Standard Chartered, believes that bitcoin's role as a safe haven is being amplified by the fiscal gridlock in Washington.
