Bitcoin plummeted below the $9,000 mark on Thursday. This drop marks a two-month low for the cryptocurrency. Autonomous Partners Managing Director Arianna Simpson explains her bullish outlook on Bitcoin.
"This has happened time, and time again in the history for Bitcoin and the crypto market," said Simpson. "It's just a question of having patience and realizing that this downturn is to be expected and I'm sure it will rebound."
Bitcoin's decline on Thursday came after India's Minister of Finance raised concerns of banning the cryptocurrency. "Most of the regulation news that has caused dips in the past is something that lasts for a period of time, but then overall we've seen it be quite dovish in general," said Simpson.
Social media platform Reddit has sued the artificial intelligence company Anthropic, alleging that it is illegally “scraping” the comments of Reddit users to train its chatbot Claude.
President Donald Trump wants his “big, beautiful” bill of tax breaks and spending cuts on his desk to be singed into law by Independence Day. And he’s pushing the slow-rolling Senate to make it happen sooner rather than later. Trump met with Senate Majority Leader John Thune at the White House early this week and has been dialing senators for one-on-one chats, using both the carrot and stick to encourage them to act. But it’s still a long road ahead for the bill. Senators want to make changes to protect Medicaid and to make sure some tax breaks become permanent. Elon Musk called the whole bill a "disgusting abomination.”
