But crypto trading takes no days off, and despite the fallout from FTX’s collapse and a flurry of crackdowns by regulators, bitcoin has been on a nice run lately. Last Thursday, it topped $25,000 to hit an eight-month high.

PS: Did you know that Presidents Day (today) doesn’t actually fall on any president’s birthday? While originally celebrated on February 22, the day George Washington was born, the holiday was moved to the third Monday of February in 1971. That’s because Congress passed the Uniform Monday Holiday Act, which moved some federal holidays to Monday so we could all enjoy more three-day weekends.
