In 1997, Steve Jobs announced a deal with Microsoft to a room full of Apple fans

They booed when Bill Gates appeared on a giant screen.

The headline was Microsoft’s $150 million investment. But that money covered only a fraction of Apple’s losses.

The more important term was Microsoft’s promise to keep making Office for Mac for five years.

Apple needed time and software its customers depended on. The deal helped secure both while Jobs worked to rebuild the company.

Years later, the iPod and iPhone transformed Apple. The agreement looked like a surrender onstage. In practice, its most valuable part was buried in the terms.

Pete Best spent two years playing with the Beatles, from marathon Hamburg sets to the Cavern

Then, in 1962, their manager told him the band wanted Ringo Starr. Best says the others never explained the decision or gave him a proper goodbye.

Later, Best’s new group opened for the Beatles. They crossed paths again, but the silence remained.

Decades on, early Beatles recordings featuring Best appeared on *Anthology 1*, earning him royalties.

The official explanation was that his drumming wasn’t good enough. Best has always believed there was more to it: jealousy.

Was it really about the drums?

@trempelg That was the most brilliant idea, it’s a pity she didn’t appreciate it

@richard_inx You’ve produced a very high-quality analysis

[Bazik @bazik_g]

On the 4-hour chart, $BTC spent a long time ranging before the latest drop

The market has now swept liquidity below the range low, and that area is already producing a reaction and a bounce.

My main scenario is a move higher to take the remaining liquidity above the range. The key levels I’m watching are 87,250 → 88,400 → 90,600.

It’s relatively rare for Bitcoin to sweep the lows of a well-established range and immediately enter a broader downtrend without first testing the liquidity above it.

At minimum, I’m looking for a move back toward the range high. The stronger scenario is a full continuation of the plan I outlined earlier.

I still see 88,400 as a valid target, with 90,600 as the next area of interest.

For now, I view the latest drop as another liquidity sweep: the market took positions below the swing lows, then started to bounce.

My scenario remains unchanged: I’m watching for a move higher toward 87,250, 88,400, and 90,600.

A 17-year-old from Russia reportedly ended up with more than $1.2 million in a single evening

According to reports, a hacker believed to be living in China breached the THEO project and gained access to the team’s main wallet.

Around the same time, the teenager decided to buy a small amount of the project’s token.

Then the hacker made a costly mistake. While moving the funds, he allegedly copied the teen’s wallet address by accident and sent the money there.

Now, the hacker has reportedly found the teenager’s personal details and is threatening him, demanding that he return the funds.

$STRK’s rally is being powered by a major narrative shift

Starknet is considering leaving Ethereum L2 status to become an independent L1, with quantum resistance targeted for 2027.

That’s a big repricing story, but the transition is still under consideration, not approved.

The earlier strkBTC push and incentives for bringing Bitcoin onto Starknet added another catalyst; momentum trading likely amplified both.

- What matters next: a formal proposal, a credible migration plan, and real growth in strkBTC usage.

A 127M $STRK unlock is scheduled for Oct. 15, which could add selling pressure.

> If the L1 plan advances and usage follows, the rally has more to build on.

> If headlines outrun execution, expect volatility and profit-taking.

@richard_inx Are you a smart investor?

Market watchlist for today

$BR - Something interesting is happening. Tokens are moving to new wallets, so manipulation is possible. We’re keeping a close eye on it.

$AKE - Watching for now. No clear activity yet.

$ONDO - Volume is picking up. Watching for a continuation of the move.

$BTW - This algorithmic token is making fresh all-time highs. The move could accelerate, but manage risk carefully: price may remain choppy.

The barrier to entry in crypto keeps getting lower

Yesterday, $Aave unveiled a new feature in the Aave App: connect a bank account, deposit fiat, and it is automatically converted into stablecoins at a 1:1 rate.

No need for a separate exchange, conversion service, or extra steps.

The feature is still in beta, with a full launch expected soon.

Robinhood and Telegram have already taken a similar path, while X is gradually moving in the same direction, making crypto purchases easier to access from within its platform.

Every cycle has brought new ways to lower the barrier to entry:

- 2017: Coinbase and the first convenient fiat on-ramps, alongside the launch of BTC futures.

- 2021: PayPal, Venmo, mobile on-ramps, Bitcoin futures ETFs, and crypto integrated into familiar financial apps.

- The new cycle: bank account → stablecoins in a couple of taps.

The gap between traditional finance and crypto is narrowing. Buying crypto is becoming almost as simple as ordering food or shopping online: open an app, choose what you want, pay, and receive it.

That is exactly the kind of user experience crypto needs for mainstream adoption.

> The less people need to understand exchanges, wallets, networks, and on-ramps, the easier it is for them to start using crypto.

October 10 erased $500B from crypto and liquidated more than $19B in leveraged positions

In three days, that date returns.

History may not repeat candle for candle, but anyone maxing leverage this week clearly skipped the most expensive lesson of 2025.
