WhyBitcoin is sitting at a price level where traders are watching to see if it can jump above $65,000—which would be a sign that more people want to buy it. When a price breaks through a big level like this, it can mean investors feel more confident, but it doesn't guarantee what happens next.

WhySomeone hacked into Airbnb's CEO's social media account and posted about crypto stuff he didn't write. When something like this happens, it shows that even big company leaders can get hacked, so it's worth thinking about whether a company takes security seriously.
