$BTC following the security patch for the nodes, an ultimatum was triggered that keeps the market on edge.

#2 Blockstreamโs response: The firm categorically rejected the extortion, describing the retention of funds as a crime rather than a "responsible disclosure," and demanded full, immediate repayment.
#3 Market impact: Meanwhile, the price of BTC remains shaky near $77,000 amid liquidations that surpassed $680 million in the last 24 hours following macroeconomic volatility.
