Happy December folks, in this segment, we take a look at some of the top crypto things that took place yesterday, the 01st of December 2025.
Bitcoin just pulled a hilarious move
Bitcoin just pulled the most hilarious “Bart Simpson” pattern you’ll see all year.
After teasing everyone with a pre-Thanksgiving pump, BTC/USD got haircut straight down to $85,616 on Bitstamp before a weak little bounce.
Over $600 million in positions got absolutely wrecked in 24 hours in a classic “welcome-to-December” party.

Some big traders are already calling for $50K, saying the drop is “inevitable.” Love it or hate it, this dramatic Bart is definitely one of the top crypto things happening right now.
China is back on its anti-crypto warpath again!!!!
The People’s Bank of China just held a big meeting with 12 other agencies and declared that “virtual currency speculation has resurfaced.”
Now this translates to, they’re about to refresh the 2021 ban hammer harder than ever.
Stablecoins are officially in the crosshairs, with the central bank repeating that crypto has zero legal tender status and “should not and cannot” circulate as money.
If you thought China was done hating on crypto, you might want to think again. This new crackdown is easily one of the top crypto things to watch this month.
Another top crypto thing: Crypto payments coming to PlayStation
And now for something completely opposite!
PlayStation is reportedly gearing up to drop its own U.S. dollar-pegged stablecoin in 2026.
They want to make American gamers, who make up 30% of Sony’s external sales; buy games, subscriptions, and anime with super-low-fee stablecoin payments across the entire Sony ecosystem.
Sony Bank has already applied for a U.S. banking license and teamed up with Bastion (a U.S. stablecoin issuer). A legacy tech titan going full crypto-native? That’s hands-down one of the biggest top crypto things we’ve seen all year.
From Bitcoin’s Bart Simpson nightmare to China swinging the ban hammer and Sony quietly building the next killer stablecoin, these are the top crypto things moving the market right now.
So which of these top crypto things are you betting on in December?
