In brief While crypto traders may have hoped for it, predictors on Myriad are don't believe a Santa rally is coming for crypto majors. Predictors also think it's unlikely that President Trump will pardon developer Keonne Rodriguez by February. On the other hand, predictors favor Steve Harrington to make it through the "Stranger Things" finale alive. Decrypt’s Art, Fashion, and Entertainment Hub. Discover SCENE Crypto traders haven’t had much to cheer about during the holiday season. But headed into the final stretch of 2025, predictors on Myriad can express their discontent (or uncommon bullishness) by predicting whether or not Santa will bring a rally which would send Bitcoin back towards $100,000 and Ethereum near $4,000. Other top markets this week include whether or not President Trump will pardon Samourai Wallet developer Keonne Rodriguez by February, plus predictions on the fate of beloved “Stranger Things” character, Steve Harrington.

Market Open: December 8Market Close: December 23Volume: $21.2KLink: See the latest odds on the "Will Santa bring us a rally?" market on Myriad Santa is set to bring gifts to children all over the world next week. But will he bring a rally to crypto markets as well? Predictors on Myriad don’t think so—and the consensus is overwhelming. Myriad’s “Santa rally” market asks predictors whether or not at least three of the following price levels will be hit or exceeded between now and December 25: $99,000 BTC, $3,900 ETH, $199 SOL, or $999 BNB. As of Thursday afternoon, odds are overwhelmingly against it, with 96% not expecting a positive surprise from Santa that would send any three of the aforementioned assets to their respective marks. Each of the four assets have fallen in the last 30 days—though BTC and ETH have been the stronger two, dropping 8.5% and 11.4%, respectively. SOL and BNB have dropped 16.2% and 11.8%, respectively, in the same timeframe. That’s dropped them all even further from the rally marks, all of which are at least 13% above their current standings. As such, odds of “no rally” have jumped about 12% in the last week as the window available for a Christmas surge dwindles. What’s Next? Predictions for this market close two days before Christmas. Will Trump pardon Keonne Rodriguez before February 2026? Market Open: December 16Market Close: January 29Volume: $2.37KLink: See the latest odds on the "Will Trump pardon Keonne Rodriguez before February?" market on Myriad Samouri Wallet developer Keonne Rodriguez was sentenced to five years in prison in November for his role in creating a Bitcoin mixer application. Earlier this week, President Trump told Decrypt that he’d “look at” a potential pardon for Rodriguez. Now, predictors on Myriad are asked whether he may receive a pardon before February. As it stands on Thursday, predictors are confident Rodriguez will not be pardoned by February, with odds against standing at 80%. That’s despite the fact that key advocacy groups are supporting Rodriguez, alongside Trump’s comments this week on the matter. The case maintains heightened controversy, particularly for privacy advocates and developers who believe the case undermines developers’ ability to work on privacy-focused blockchain tools. But while Trump has pardoned other crypto-connected individuals like Silk Road creator Ross Ulbricht and Binance founder Changpeng “CZ” Zhao, Rodriguez is less optimistic about his chances, telling Decrypt this week, “We don't have billions of dollars. We don't have the same type of influence people like that have.” What’s Next? The market closes on January 29, 2026. Will Steve Harrington Die in Stranger Things Season 5? Market Open: November 11Market Close: December 25Volume: $22.4KLink: See the latest odds on the "Will Steve Harrington Die?" market on Myriad The hit sci-fi show “Stranger Things” has returned for its final season, with the first batch of episodes releasing in November, the next batch arriving on Christmas, and the feature-length series finale set to drop on New Year’s Eve. Myriad predictors can now place trades on their belief as to whether or not key character Steve Harrington, played by Joe Keery, will make it through the season alive. As of Thursday afternoon, predictors are choosing life, giving odds of Steve’s death just a 17% chance of occurring. That’s about 14% less likely than his odds to die last week, with the events of the initial four episodes perhaps reassuring predictors. Theories about which main character will die abound on the internet, and some Reddit threads dedicated to Steve are “100% certain” he will not perish by the time the series concludes on December 31. But others are less certain, pointing to a recent Tonight Show clip with the Duffer Brothers—the Stranger Things creators—which saw them push a Steve figurine off a desk. The Duffer Brothers tease the end of @Stranger_Things using Funko POP! figures and share an exclusive, unreleased clip from Vol 2 👀 #FallonTonight #StrangerThingsOnFallon pic.twitter.com/twfrm5o4rI — The Tonight Show (@FallonTonight) December 18, 2025 Myriad’s market will only resolve “yes” if there is clear, on-screen evidence of Steve’s death. According to market rules, “An ambiguous outcome—such as his disappearance, an off-screen fate, or any unclear status” will lead to a “no” resolution. What’s Next? The next episodes of Stranger Things drop on December 25, with the finale arriving as the year comes to a close.

BNB Chain announced on Dec. 18 that AWS customers can now pay for services using BNB through Better Payment Network (BNP), built on BNB Chain. The integration targets faster settlement, lower transaction fees, and simpler cross-border payment execution. According to the official press release, BNBChain now positions BNP as a bridge between digital assets and traditional finance workflows for businesses. --> It brings together regulated stablecoin issuers, financial institutions, DeFi venues, and market makers. BNB Chain framed the partnership as another step toward enterprise-grade, on-chain payment rails. Sarah Song, BNB Chain’s Head of Business Development, said the move expands practical BNB usage, citingsupport for low-cost global payments for firms integrating on-chain settlement into operations. BPN founder Rica Fu also said “BPN’s architecture is designed to support secure, scalable transaction processing for institutional and retail businesses.” She added that AWS billing integration showcases operational efficiency gains from digital-asset payments. BNB Price Forecast: Can bears extend the double-top breakdown toward $820? BNB’s 12-hour price chart shows a clear double-top formation, with two failed breakout attempts capped under $940. The neckline area around $875 has flipped into resistance after the breakdown. BNB BNB $822.6 24h volatility: 2.5% Market cap: $113.36 B Vol. 24h: $2.64 B price is now trading below the 20-period basis near $875 and under the lower band near $836. That placement signals sellers still control momentum, even as prices stagnated intraday. RSI near 35 shows heavy downside pressure, with conditions nearing oversold on this timeframe. BNB Technical Price Analysis | Source: TradingView If bears keep BNB below $830 for consecutive sessions, BNB price risks downside continuation. The double-top pattern currently points to the $820 level as the next bearish target, with $800 as follow-through risk. Conversely, BNB must hold above $820 to keep up hopes of short-term rebound. A bullish recovery case starts with reclaiming $845, then closing back above $875. Until then, rebound attempts may remain capped under $830.

Binance founder Changpeng Zhao (CZ) shared comprehensive insights into the future of the cryptocurrency market, the development of BNB Chain, emerging sectors, and entrepreneurship during a year-end QA session. CZ stated that the crypto market is still in a very early stage, but its growth potential could increase by several orders of magnitude in the coming years. CZ stated that he currently dedicates a significant portion of his time to four main areas: Giggle Academy, YZi Labs, the BNB ecosystem, and promoting cryptocurrency adoption in various countries. He noted that BNB Chain has gained remarkable momentum this year, with annual transaction volume increasing by approximately 600% and daily active users exceeding 2 million. According to CZ, BNB Chain’s priority should be to continue generating value for “real developers.” In the long term, he expressed his belief that the BNB ecosystem could reach a scale larger than any single business within the ecosystem, including centralized exchanges. CZ also made a special point about the stablecoin sector, arguing that “truly better” stablecoins have not yet emerged on a large scale in the market. Describing the current stage as “stablecoin 1.0,” CZ characterized the examples currently seen as 1.5th generation. He stated that projects like FDUSD and USD1 are examples of this transition process, adding that the market is still in its early stages and has enormous potential. Related News BREAKING: Bitwise Files Spot ETF Application for Surprise Altcoin In his assessment of the prediction markets, one of the prominent areas in this bull cycle, CZ stated that it is difficult to predict which project will win at this stage. However, he said that large, high-profile events could give certain projects an advantage in the short term. He noted that important political processes, particularly in the US, could be decisive in this area in the coming period, adding that short-term success requires intense effort, while lasting success is achieved through long-term competition. CZ, noting that artificial intelligence and robotics are at the heart of the global technology agenda, argued that these two fields will inevitably integrate with cryptocurrencies in the future. “In the future, AI and robotics will use cryptocurrencies on a large scale. Not yet, but eventually there will be no other option,” said CZ, adding that he is cautious about AI-powered trading bots. He argued that truly effective AI strategies will be used directly by project teams rather than sold, and that the zero-sum nature of markets means that everyone using the same strategy will reduce effectiveness. Sharing his perspective on venture capital, CZ said he prefers to support mission-driven and long-term thinking teams. He stated that adapting products to market conditions is natural, but projects that completely change direction every few months may indicate a lack of passion. According to CZ, the most critical element in rapidly changing markets is the teams’ ability to implement and execute. Arguing that there is no single formula for success for entrepreneurs, CZ said that many new opportunities will emerge in the future. Despite the possibility of a bear market, CZ stated that the crypto sector is still in its early stages and that the growth potential remains extremely broad. He noted that the crypto adoption rate, when calculated by the number of people or by total wealth, is still in single digits, possibly even below 1% when viewed in terms of total wealth. According to CZ, the cryptocurrency market has the potential to expand several times over in the coming period. *This is not investment advice.

Bitcoin –30 % from October Highs: What Triggered the Sell-Off At Rostock24 we identify three main reasons for the correction: Profit-Taking — after a +180 % yearly rally major holders (MicroStrategy, ETF investors) locked in positions at $110,000–$125,000.

Fed and Rate Market: How Soft Policy Could Change the Trend At Rostock24 the December Fed meeting is the main trigger.
