Four Potential Fault Lines in Strategy's Bitcoin Fortress

Strategy announced Wednesday that its perpetual preferred equity has grown larger than its convertible debt, with $8.36 billion in permanent capital now exceeding $8.21 billion in dated debt. While this is a key milestone in defending the company’s colossal Bitcoin treasury, experts suggest the design could contain the seeds of its potential failure. Our Perpetual Preferred Equity is now larger than our Convertible Debt. $BTC pic.twitter.com/XLtwzECr6u — Strategy (@Strategy) January 21, 2026 T...

The Best AI Large Language Models of 2025

The defining strategy of 2025 was not choosing a single “best large language model.” It was assembling a stack. Claude for premium coding and editing. DeepSeek or Qwen for cheap volume. Muse for fiction. Dolphin when constraints mattered more than polish. Models stopped being personalities this year. They became tools. The advantage went to users who treated them that way. The technology matured into something genuinely useful in 2025—models became smarter, cheaper, and specialized for specific...

GG Story of the Year 2025: Crypto Gaming Collapses as Funding Dries Up

This was the year that, for many, the crypto gaming dream died. But that dream didn't end on its own—it was smothered by venture capitalists who stopped believing in it, and crucially, stopped investing in it. In 2025, numerous notable crypto games shut down their operations, which Decrypt has tracked throughout the year. These closures left developers unemployed, dedicated player bases abandoned, and entire collections of digital assets rendered practically useless. Some of these titles even pr...

The Year in Solana 2025: Trump and Wall Street Take Notice

Solana’s native token surged to a new all-time high shortly after the year began, but the 2025 story of the speedy layer-1 network was not all up and to the right: SOL has finished the year in a serious slump, down substantially since this time last year. Nevertheless, the network made big headlines, notched major technical improvements, launched another mobile phone, and found a way to better intertwine with traditional financial markets.  Here’s a look back at how 2025 shaped up for Solana.  T...

Emerge's 2025 'Person' of the Year: Ani the Grok Chatbot

When Ani arrived in July, she didn’t look like the sterile chat interfaces that had previously dominated the industry. Modeled after Death Note’s Misa Amane—with animated expressions, anime aesthetics, and the libido of a dating-sim protagonist—Ani was built to be watched, wanted, and pursued. Elon Musk signaled the shift himself when he posted a video of the character on X with the caption, “Ani will make ur buffer overflow.” The post went viral. Ani represented a new, more mainstream species o...

The Year in Ethereum 2025: Institutions Embrace ETH as the 'Ivory Tower' Crumbles

In an industry well-accustomed to flash and self-promotion, Ethereum has long seemed an outlier. The network’s builders have historically focused on technical accomplishments and an ideal of decentralization so pure, critics say, that they can sometimes lose sight of the bigger economic and political picture. But this year, amidst seismic regulatory developments for the crypto industry, Ethereum has stealthily made huge inroads in arenas it long was perceived to have neglected. From Wall Street...
