2025 Cryptocurrency Market Major Events Recap: This year has been truly momentous. At the beginning of the year, a major exchange experienced the most severe security breach in history, with losses reaching $144 million, once again sounding the alarm on platform risks. The "Black Tuesday" on October 11th was even more shocking—the market triggered a chain liquidation of up to $40 billion in an instant, causing panic among investors. Positive signals came from the policy front, as US regulators made significant concessions in a case involving a leading exchange, with a key figure being granted amnesty. This is seen by the industry as a milestone in the compliance of the crypto industry. Meanwhile, mainstream political circles are beginning to embrace crypto culture—including politicians launching their own tokens, sparking market discussions. Good news also came from the fundraising side, as a well-known payment platform completed a highly anticipated IPO, injecting confidence into the entire ecosystem. Looking back over the year, from security risks to regulatory breakthroughs, from market upheavals to institutional participation, 2025 has completely transformed the narrative of the crypto world.

144 million is nothing; I lost it all in one liquidation. On Black Tuesday, I just went to sleep, and when I woke up, my account was zero. Are politicians playing with cryptocurrencies? Now this is interesting... Is regulation really about to change? 400 billion in liquidations shows the market is still too fragile. The news of payment platform going public has come out, yet retail investors are still bottom-fishing—typical. These days, making money is faster than losing it.

If I had known Black Tuesday would be this bad, I shouldn't have spammed that day...

This move is truly incredible. I never expected politicians to get involved in crypto. We're making a killing, everyone. Buying the dip has never been more rewarding. $144 million gone? Damn it, I need to double-check the platform before moving my funds again. 400 billion cleared in an instant. Oh my god... almost got wiped out. Regulatory easing is indeed a big deal. Is the era of compliance really here? These days, even politicians are issuing coins. It's surreal. The bottom is in. Buy, buy, buy. It all depends on who reacts fastest. Is the payment platform going public? The ecosystem is definitely growing.

144 million this time really can't hold up anymore, it's still the platform's fault, let's stick to self-managed wallets. The liquidation wave in October directly stunned me; watching 40 billion evaporate was very despairing... But the pardon thing is indeed impressive; policy easing is always better than being stuck and deadlocked. Politicians are also issuing tokens now? That's really outrageous, it made me laugh to death. These days, compliance cuts legs, risk explosions, it's always these kinds of things. Wait, is the listing of payment platforms really a good thing or just another way to cut leeks? Magnificent and grand? We're just playing for keeps, brother. With friendly policies + institutional entry, will 2025 be an opportunity or a trap? Can't even secure 144 million, the business of exchanges really isn't interesting. Pardons, tokens, listings—why does it all feel like a dance? Honestly, it's just big capital playing big; let's just watch the show.

$144 million gone? Luckily I wasn't on that exchange, but I feel for those people. Black Tuesday was truly incredible; $40 billion liquidated in an instant. I was completely stunned at the time. Even the political circle is issuing tokens now. How outrageous is that... But on the other hand, the ecosystem has indeed come alive. Pardon? Really? The regulatory environment is changing a bit too quickly. A bunch of good news about listings and fundraising. It feels like another surge is coming by the end of the year.
