Bitcoin’s 2026 Rollercoaster: Halvings, ETFs, and Regulators Who Can’t Quit Crypto

  • Market Dynamics (Or Why Your Wallet Screams at 3 AM): Bitcoin’s price is a group project between algorithms, hype, and the collective anxiety of people who bought $50K worth of crypto on a credit card.
  • Halving Events: A four-year ritual where miners get paid half as much Bitcoin, creating artificial scarcity. It’s like a Black Friday sale, but for digital gold. Spoiler: Sometimes it works. Sometimes it flops harder than a Bitcoin-powered flounder.
  • Institutional Involvement (AKA When Rich People Finally Notice Crypto): Suddenly, Bitcoin’s “decentralized revolution” gets a participation trophy from Wall Street. ETFs? Just a fancy way to let your pension fund gamble on Bitcoin without the cool hacker vibes.
  • Regulatory Impact (Or How Governments Try Not to Panic): Regulators flip-flop between “This is a Ponzi scheme!” and “How do we tax this?” The only constant? Endless paperwork.

Capcom and Panasonic Have Revealed an Exclusive Speaker Equipped With Horror Mode for Resident Evil Requiem

The Resident Evil series has always had a lot of merchandise, like statues and collectibles – it’s typical for popular games. Usually, these items are just for show and don’t impact how you play the game. For example, the Resident Evil Requiem Amiibo and even the unusual chainsaw controller for Resident Evil 4 didn’t change much about the gameplay itself. However, with Resident Evil Requiem coming soon, it looks like the game might be doing things differently, with accessories that could significantly alter the player’s experience.

Games That Use Atmosphere Instead of Jump Scares

If you’re easily scared like me, but still want to enjoy horror games, don’t worry – there are options! These games focus on building a creepy atmosphere and keeping you constantly tense, rather than relying on sudden shocks. Some include chases, which can sometimes lead to startling moments, so be prepared. While most are mostly free of jump scares, a few might have a couple of unexpected surprises, but nothing as intense as games like Outlast.
