Today's charts look like something I might have to discuss with my therapist, ngl 🥲

👉 Bitcoin dropped to about $107K;

👉 Altcoins are seeing red;

👉 The total market cap fell from ~$3.8T to ~$3.6T.

This downturn was triggered by the US dollar index increasing by 0.3%.

When the dollar strengthens, investors often move money out of riskier assets like crypto, because safer investments (like bonds) start looking more appealing.

Don't start panicking, though - this selloff looks more like a normal market correction than a disaster.

Analyst Ted Pillows noted that Bitcoin is now near a major support zone between $107K and $108K.

👉 If that range holds, a bounce could follow;

👉 But if Bitcoin slips below it, we could see another move toward $100K in the coming days.

Basically, markets are still standing strong, and this looks more like a breather than a breakdown.

👋 We attended Trezor's conference

Today's the day - Trezor is hosting its exclusive Trustless by Design conference in Prague.

Aaaand, drumroll please... we got invited.

BitDegree in the house 🗣️

BitDegree team at Trezor's conference

It honestly feels good to be among Trezor's closest partners and fellow nerds who believe in the same thing: that crypto should stay transparent, not controlled.

We got to talk about what comes next for open, secure crypto tech - and Trezor came through with something big.

They announced their latest device - the Trezor Safe 7, priced at $249.

It's their most advanced device yet, and it introduces a huge first for the industry: TROPIC01, the world's first auditable Secure Element.

Most hardware wallets rely on closed, proprietary chips where the design is secret. Users just have to trust the manufacturer that it's safe.

Trezor’s approach is different - they made the chip auditable, meaning anyone can inspect and verify how it works.

It's a move toward full transparency, something crypto security has been missing for years.

The Safe 7 also comes with quantum-ready architecture, which means it's built to handle future cryptographic upgrades once quantum computing becomes powerful enough to threaten current encryption methods.

And yeah, it's built like a tank: Bluetooth, wireless charging, color touchscreen, and a water- and dust-resistant aluminum shell.

There's even a Bitcoin Orange edition 🥹

Trezor CTO presentation

We left the conference thinking one thing: transparency builds trust.

Now it's on the rest of the industry to decide whether "trustless by design" is just a nice phrase - or the new standard.

🍋 News drops you can't miss

🤖 WhatsApp's not letting devs run general-purpose AI chatbots through its Business API after January 15, 2026. That means those chatbots will be blocked from the Business API going forward.

🕵️‍♂️ Federico Carrone from Ethereum is raising a flag about Paradigm and other investment firms getting too much control. He thinks that if they keep gaining influence, Ethereum might run into some major issues.

☕ Kevin O'Leary says AI and blockchain could handle stuff like buying coffee for you pretty soon. In his view, running daily errands might not need real people much longer.

💻 AWS glitched and took down Coinbase, Robinhood, and a few others for a while. AWS says most things are back up now, and they're still watching for more issues.
