It was a bumpy start to the week for Bitcoin as the world’s largest cryptocurrency dropped 7% to briefly trade below $98,000 on Jan. 27 — its lowest level in 10 days. The sudden correction followed shockwaves from the viral Chinese AI platform DeepSeek, whose launch sent ripples through both crypto and tech markets. Despite the dip, analysts remain optimistic, citing a lack of panic selling as a sign of confidence among long-term holders. Meanwhile, MicroStrategy announced a bold new $2.5 million share offering to fund additional Bitcoin purchases, doubling down on its bullish strategy.

Elsewhere, Arizona made headlines by advancing legislation to create a state-backed Bitcoin reserve, while the US CFTC scheduled public roundtables to discuss crypto regulation.
