Saylor Buys Another Billion, Oil Shock Fades, and Prediction Markets Face the Chopping Block

Today we're covering major moves in crypto: Michael Saylor's Strategy just scooped up another 18,000 Bitcoin worth $1.28 billion, partially funded through innovative STRC preferred shares. We'll break down why Bitcoin bounced back above $70,000 as oil fears cooled and the IEA proposed historic reserve releases. Plus, the regulatory landscape is shifting fast-Democrats are pushing to ban prediction markets on war and death, the SEC and CFTC are finally coordinating on crypto oversight, and Nasdaq just announced plans for tokenized stock trading with Kraken. We'll also dive into Aave's $27 million liquidation glitch, the race for stablecoin dominance, and why some analysts think Bitcoin could still dip to $50,000 before rallying to six figures. From institutional accumulation to regulatory battles, it's all happening right now.
