Sell-side pressure for Bitcoin, which last week brought the world’s largest crypto to its lowest point since President Donald Trump was elected for a second term, has begun to abate.
Analysts point to increasing demand from large buyers, the balance of aggressive buying and selling, and the percentage of supply in profit as evidence that the drawdown could be running out of steam.
“From the perspective of price action and on-chain distribution, the pace of the decline is indeed decelerating,” Tim Sun, senior researcher at HashKey Group, told Decrypt. “However, we have yet to see a signal for

New climate report says 41 states are getting warmer by the decade

Researchers at two Spanish universities have found that 84% of the contiguous U.S. states have shown signs of warming over the last 70 or so years, which is more than previously suggested.
In a report published last week in the journal PLOS Climate, the researchers found that 41 U.S. states have gotten warmer since the middle of the last century. Alaska and Hawaii weren't included in the study.
The states' warming patterns weren't uniform, Jesús Gonzalo, an economist and professor at the University of Charles III in Madrid

A US-led research team has verified the first Mediterranean mass grave of the world’s earliest recorded pandemic, providing stark new details about the plague of Justinian that killed millions of people in the Byzantine empire between the sixth and eighth centuries.
The findings, published in February’s Journal of Archaeological Science, offer what researchers say is a rare empirical window into the mobility, urban life and vulnerability of citizens affected by the pestilence.
DNA taken from bodies at a mass burial ground at Jerash in modern-day Jordan show the grave represented “a single mo

Scientists have discovered an unexpected source of air pollution caused by planes, and it has nothing to do with their exhaust.
A new study, published in the journal Environmental Chemistry and Ecotoxicology, examined the presence of Tire Wear Particles at the Milan Linate Airport in Italy.
Tire wear particles, or TWPs, are non-exhaust pollutants that shed from tires as they move across pavement.
Researchers found that the airport was a significant local source of hazardous organic compounds, specifically benzothiazole (BTH) components, which can be released from TWPs.
They discovered seve

The world's oceans are breaking climate records, with ocean heat content last year reaching its highest level on record.
This new discovery follows a decades-long trend of ocean warming that shows no sign of slowing down.
A large international team of researchers published a paper about record ocean heat measurements in 2025. Led by the Institute of Atmospheric Physics at the Chinese Academy of Sciences, the scientists gained a better understanding of ocean warming and det

An evolutionary development is raising alarms among scientists: Two of the world's most destructive crop pests have begun interbreeding — creating destructive hybrids that could threaten food supplies.
According to New Scientist, researchers discovered that two notorious agricultural pests — the cotton bollworm and the corn earworm — have successfully interbred in Brazil, exchanging genes that make them more resistant to pesticides in genetically modified crops.
Both insects are moth species whose caterpillars feed on crops. The corn earworm is native to the Americas and attacks corn, tomato

Here's some science trivia for you: unlike the inner retina in most animals (including us), birds' inner retinas function without oxygen. And now, researchers led by a team from Aarhus University in Denmark have figured out how.
In the retinas of almost all vertebrates, the oxygen required to convert glucose into sufficient amounts of energy for cells to function is delivered courtesy of red blood cells.
Not so with birds: there are no blood vessels in the retina, so oxygen can only arrive by diffusion through the surface, making the inner retina anoxic (without oxygen).
Cells can squeeze e

Several Psychiatric Disorders Share The Same Root Cause, Study Suggests

Researchers have discovered that eight different psychiatric conditions share a common genetic basis.
A study published in early 2025 pinpointed specific variants among those shared genes, showing how they behave during brain development.
The US team found many of these variants remain active for extended periods, potentially influencing multiple developmental stages – and offering new targets for treatments that could address several disorders at once.

NEW YORK (AP) — Two artifacts found at a lake shore in Greece are the oldest wooden tools to be uncovered so far and date back 430,000 years.
One is a spindly stick about 2 1/2 feet (80 centimeters) long that could have been used for digging in the mud. The other is a smaller, more mysterious handheld chunk of willow or poplar wood that may have been used to shape stone tools, according to research published Monday in the journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.
Scientists think ancient humans wielded a whole litany of tools made from stone, bone and wood. But it's particular

Climate change is shifting the weather patterns of Earth in ways that are far-reaching and long-lasting, and a new study details a noticeable rise in extreme weather events in the Arctic, prompted by rising global temperatures.
The study, from an international team of researchers who ****** yzed decades of data, declares that a "new era" of extreme weather events is now underway in the northernmost region of the planet.
It's a major move into unprecedented climate conditions, the researchers say, likely to have a significant impact on Arctic plants and wildlife, and on the people who call th

A box full of viruses and bacteria has completed its return trip to the International **** e Station, and the changes these 'bugs' experienced in their travels could help us Earthlings tackle drug-resistant infections.
A team of researchers from the University of Wisconsin-Madison and US biotech company Rhodium Scientific Inc. pitted Escherichia coli bacteria against its viral arch-nemesis, the T7 bacteriophage. This pair has been locked in an evolutionary 'arms race' for as long as we've been looking, but never in microgravity – until they were sent to the ISS in 2020.

It’s a plant! It’s a fungus! It’s… an entirely new type of lifeform hitherto unknown to science?
That appears to be the case for a puzzling, spire-shaped organism that lived over 400 million years ago, according to a new study published in the journal Science Advances. After ****** yzing its internal structures, the authors argue that the mystifying ancient beings known as prototaxites don’t belong to any of the existing biological kingdoms.

Scientists are debating the finer details of microplastics in the human body, according to The Washington Post.
It's often said that microplastics are everywhere, including in the environment and in living things, and an ever-growing body of research increasingly attests to their ubiquity as a contaminant.
On Jan. 13, the Guardian published an article about one researcher's objections to the structure of one study on microplastics and the human brain.
Dr. Dušan Materić is considered an expert in the field. In its article, the Guardian cited a February 2025 LinkedIn post in which he describe

At what point do "you" end and the outside world begins?
It might feel like a weird question with an obvious answer, but your brain has to work surprisingly hard to judge that boundary. Now, scientists have linked a specific set of brain waves in a certain part of the brain to a sense of body ownership.
In a series of new experiments, researchers from Sweden and France put 106 participants through what's called the rubber hand illusion, monitoring and stimulating their brain activity to see what effect it had.

Fears of quantum computing breaking Bitcoin’s encryption continue to plague Bitcoin investors.
In fact, Eliezer Ndinga, global head of research at 21Shares, reckons that unless developers address the concern, Bitcoin won’t enjoy a rally anytime soon.
But if developers act? It’s clear, blue skies.
“If we get past the quantum threat, then Bitcoin can go to $180,000,” Ndinga told DL News. For now, however, “it’s a cloud in the air.”
Every day more market watchers are cropping up and labelling quantum computing Bitcoin’s most pressing threat. Adding to Ndinga, Sergio Ermotti, CEO of Swiss inve

Scientists Astonished by Glimpse of Huge, Ancient Ocean on Mars

Scientists have long suspected that Mars was once teeming with water, a tropical oasis with vast river systems that may have been able to support life billions of years ago.
To get a better picture of what such a lush ocean world could’ve looked like, an international team of researchers used satellite data to simulate the sea level in a colossal geographic feature called Coprates Chasma, which is part of the Valles Marineris, the largest canyon in the entire solar system.
While examining the satellite imagery, the team concl

Researchers have made a troubling discovery about Arctic weather patterns and predict that bigger problems could be on the way.
According to a paper published in Science Advances, researchers from the Finnish Meteorological Institute, along with an international team including the University of Sheffield, studied 70 years of atmospheric data around the Arctic and found a disturbing trend over the last 30 years.
They found that as our planet warmed, and the Arctic in particular warmed over the last three decades, the frequency of "bioclimatic extremes" increased. These events included drought

A severe winter storm sweeping across the central and eastern U.S. in late January 2026 is threatening states from Texas to New England with crippling freezing rain, sleet and snow. Several governors issued states of emergency as forecasters warned of hazardous travel conditions, dangerous wind chills and power outages amid bitter cold expected to linger for days.
The sudden blast may come as a shock to many Americans after a mostly mild start to winter, but that warmth may be partly contributing to the ferocity of this storm.

The international team of researchers has called this process Aging and Colon Cancer-Associated (ACCA) drift, and it involves shifts in DNA methylation that can 'switch' genes on or off without altering the DNA – called epigenetic changes.
In this case, the drift leads to the gradual si
