Bitcoin Holds Sixty-Seven Thousand as Institutions Diverge, Crypto Tax Enforcement Escalates

Bitcoin trades near sixty-seven thousand dollars as institutional positioning fractures-some whales exit completely while others accumulate aggressively. Brevan Howard's crypto fund posts its worst year with a thirty percent loss, Harvard cuts bitcoin ETF exposure, and Peter Thiel's Founders Fund dumps its entire ETHZilla stake. Meanwhile, Abu Dhabi funds hold over eight hundred million in bitcoin ETFs, and Michael Saylor adds another one hundred sixty-eight million. Crypto tax enforcement enters a new era with Form 1099-DA now mandatory-the IRS gains unprecedented visibility into trader activity, and over fifty percent of holders fear penalties under the new reporting regime. Prediction markets face regulatory battles as the CFTC defends federal jurisdiction against state lawsuits targeting Kalshi and Polymarket. Moonwell suffers a one point seven eight million dollar exploit from AI-coded oracle errors. Plus: MicroStrategy shares plunge on unrealized losses, Stripe's Bridge wins conditional bank charter approval, and the DAO's second act as a one hundred fifty million dollar Ethereum security fund.
