Beckham-backed Prenetics stops Bitcoin buying, eyes up to $200 million IM8 revenue

Prenetics Global Ltd said on Tuesday it has stopped buying bitcoin and will not make additional purchases, redirecting its capital allocation to its IM8 health supplement brand.

Sberbank’s first crypto-backed loan to a bitcoin miner lands as Russia tightens trading rules

Sberbank’s first crypto-backed loan to a bitcoin miner lands as Russia tightens trading rules

Sberbank, Russia’s largest bank, said it has issued the country’s first crypto-backed loan to Intelion Data, one of Russia’s biggest bitcoin miners, using digital currency mined by the firm as collateral. Sberbank did not disclose the loan size or the amount of cryptocurrency pledged, and said it will hold the collateral in its own wallets until the loan is repaid. “The regulation of the digital currency market is still in its infancy in Russia,” said Anatoly Popov, Sberbank’s deputy chair. DL News The pilot deal is a concrete step by a systemically important Russian lender into crypto-secured financing, a niche that regulators have long treated as risky. It also comes as Moscow tries to move crypto activity into channels it can supervise, rather than leaving it largely offshore and opaque.

Bitcoin to $40,000? Macro strategist Luke Gromen trims risk as gold regains ground

Global macro analyst Luke Gromen is trimming his bitcoin exposure and warned the cryptocurrency could slide toward $40,000 in 2026, even as he still expects debt-heavy governments to lean on inflation and weaker currencies. “A move toward the $40,000 range in 2026 is possible,” Gromen said on the RiskReversal podcast. Bitbo His caution is gaining attention as bitcoin trades in thin year-end conditions and has struggled to hold above $90,000. Investors have also tracked spot bitcoin exchange-traded fund flows and looked ahead to the release of minutes from the Federal Reserve’s December policy meeting later Tuesday, Investing.com reported.

Bitcoin ATM scam costs Nebraska couple $250,000 as crypto kiosk fraud draws fresh warnings

An 82-year-old and 84-year-old Nebraska couple were scammed out of $250,000 after imposters posing as Amazon and the FBI pushed them to pay through bitcoin ATMs, Western Union transfers and Apple cards, the Lancaster County Sheriff’s Office said. The office said the couple began paying in August after being told they owed $200,000 on a compromised Amazon account and did not report the loss until Dec. 17. https://www.1011now.com The case adds to a growing list of fraud schemes that steer victims to cryptocurrency kiosks — machines often found in convenience stores and gas stations that convert cash into digital currency and send it to a “wallet,” an online account that stores cryptocurrency.
