    First off, let's talk about the recent Bitcoin flash crash that sent shockwaves through the market. On December 10, Bitcoin plummeted from over $97,000 to near $94,000 in just 30 minutes, triggering a massive liquidation event that left 584,000 crypto traders with losses totaling $1.76 billion[1]. Ouch This correction was largely attributed to the crypto market's correlation with tech stocks, which suffered after reports of China probing computer chip giant Nvidia sparked broad risk-off sentiments.

    In regulatory news, the SEC has been making waves with its enforcement actions. On November 22, the SEC announced its enforcement results for fiscal year 2024, boasting a record-breaking $8.2 billion in financial remedies, largely thanks to its action against Terraform Labs and its founder Do Kwon[4]. The SEC also published its 2025 examination priorities, which will focus on crypto assets and emerging technologies.

    In partnership news, French banking giant Groupe BPCE secured regulatory approval to offer crypto services to its 35 million customers, marking a significant milestone for institutional adoption[3]. Additionally, Shiba Inu partnered with Chainlink to achieve interoperability across 12 blockchains, further expanding its DeFi strategy[3].

    On the technological front, Acurast unveiled its Processor Lite for iOS, empowering iPhone users to join the DePIN cloud rebellion secured by Polkadot[3]. And, Decide AI is working on privacy-preserving identity verification, which could redefine data protection in the Web3 era[3].

    Last but not least, let's talk about expert commentary. Ark Invest CEO Cathie Wood predicts Bitcoin will top $1 million by decade's end, driven by scarcity and institutional interest[3]. And, SEC Commissioner Hester Peirce expects early improvements for crypto ETFs under new leadership, including staking for Ethereum ETFs and in-kind redemptions for Bitcoin products[3].
