[LIVE] Crypto News Today: Latest Updates for Jan. 02, 2026 – Bitcoin Breaks the 4-Year Cycle With First-Ever Post-Halving Annual Loss

Bitcoin has upended one of its most closely watched historical patterns, closing 2025 with a roughly 6% annual loss, its first red year following a halving event. The move marks a clear break from the once-reliable four-year cycle that defined prior bull markets in 2013, 2017, and 2021.
