Cathie Wood's Ark Invest Loads Up On Beam Therapeutics, Nu Holdings: Offloads MercadoLibre, Adaptive Biotechnologies

Market intelligence firm&nbsp;Santiment&nbsp;has identified three key metrics suggesting a potential bullish move for&nbsp;Bitcoin&nbsp;(CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>).
What Happened: The analytics platform highlights&nbsp;that the average returns of&nbsp;wallets, the dormancy period of coins, and Bitcoin&#8217;s supply on exchanges all indicate a possible upward swing for the leading cryptocurrency by market cap.
Santiment <a href="https://insights.santiment.net/read/biweekly-market-update-crypto-markets-react-to-inflation-and-scandals-8485">notes</a> that historically, accumulating BTC when wallets&#8217; average returns are below 0% has proven to be a strong strategy. Currently, wallets&nbsp;active in the past 30&nbsp;days show average returns of approximately -2.9%.
This suggests that buying or adding to positions could be statistically advantageous.
Additionally,&nbsp;older BTC tokens are circulating&nbsp;at a &#8220;healthy rate,&#8221; which is often a precursor to a rally. Santiment explains that when dormant tokens move frequently, it signals a healthy circulation, typically seen during prolonged bull runs.
Finally, Santiment points out that the amount of BTC on exchanges remains low after a significant withdrawal of coins into cold wallets in late 2024.
Currently, 7.6% of Bitcoin is held in known exchange wallets, compared to 9.92% six months ago.
Why It Matters: The potential bullish signals for Bitcoin come amid broader discussions about its role in economic strategies.&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/25/02/43878748/michael-saylor-bitcoin-is-economic-armor-calls-on-us-to-accumulate-btc">Michael Saylor</a>, a prominent Bitcoin advocate, recently called on the U.S. government to accumulate Bitcoin, suggesting it could serve as &#8220;economic armor&#8221; and help eliminate national debt.
This perspective aligns with&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/25/02/43889897/bitcoin-strategic-reserve-with-1-million-btc-could-offset-21-trillion-national-debt">Matthew Sigel&#8217;s</a>&nbsp;vision of using Bitcoin as a strategic reserve to offset the national debt by 2049.
However, not all outlooks are positive.&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/25/02/43852658/bitcoin-ethereum-face-downside-risk-as-institutional-demand-fades-jpmorgan-says">JPMorgan analysts</a>&nbsp;have expressed concerns over declining institutional demand for Bitcoin and Ethereum futures, which could signal broader market weakness.
This decline in demand has been associated with futures contracts nearing backwardation, a condition where futures prices fall below spot prices, often seen during market downturns.
Price Action: Bitcoin was trading at $96,204 at the time of writing, declining by nearly 2% in the last 24 hours, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">Benzinga Pro data</a>.

Bitcoin's Bullish Signals: These 3 Key Metrics Indicate Potential Upswing, Says Research Firm

The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has reported a dramatic increase in measles cases across the nation, raising alarms about potential public health implications.
What Happened: The CDC reported a significant increase in measles cases, with numbers rising to 93 from 14 in just one week, according to a Reuters report.
This surge is primarily attributed to an&nbsp;outbreak in Gaines County, Texas,&nbsp;where cases have escalated to 57 from 22 since February 11.
Texas has reported a total of 90 cases, prompting concerns about the potential spread to other regions within the state. The&nbsp;Texas Department of State Health&nbsp;Services&nbsp;has warned of more cases emerging due to the outbreak in Gaines County.
The CDC has identified cases in several states, including&nbsp;Alaska, California, Georgia, New Jersey,&nbsp;New Mexico, New York City,&nbsp;Rhode Island, and Texas.
Notably, 95% of those affected were either unvaccinated or had an unknown&nbsp;vaccination status.
Only 4% had received&nbsp;one dose of the measles-mumps-rubella&nbsp;vaccine, and none had received the two doses recommended by the agency.
Among the reported cases, 28 involved children under two years old, and 48 were individuals aged five to 19.
Although measles&nbsp;was declared eliminated in the&nbsp;U.S. in 2000, the virus can still spread through&nbsp;travelers from countries where measles&nbsp;is prevalent. The CDC noted three outbreaks in 2025, compared to 16 in 2024, which saw 285 cases.
Why It Matters: The recent surge in measles cases is part of a broader pattern of emerging infectious diseases that have been challenging public health systems.
Earlier this year, a&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/biotech/25/01/42854890/us-records-first-human-bird-flu-death-high-levels-of-respiratory-illnesses-vaccine-stocks-rally">bird flu strain</a>&nbsp;was detected in Nevada, marking the first human death in the U.S. related to the H5N1 virus.
Additionally, the&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/health-care/24/08/40381585/who-declares-mpox-public-health-emergency-coordinated-international-response-essential-to-hal">World Health Organization</a>&nbsp;declared Mpox a public health emergency in 2024, emphasizing the need for a coordinated international response.

Measles Cases Surge 5x In US In A Week, CDC Reports: Outbreak Primarily Originating From A Texas County

Bill Gates&nbsp;has outlined critical challenges for future generations, emphasizing the importance of addressing bioterrorism, climate change, and artificial intelligence.
What Happened: The Microsoft Corp. co-founder, reflecting on his fears from the 1950s, also noted the persistent threat of nuclear war.
However, he highlighted additional concerns for younger generations, including the potential dangers of bioterrorism and the improper development of AI. Gates also stressed the need for societal unity to combat polarization.
"A nuclear war or a super bad bioterrorism event, or not shaping AI properly or not bringing society together a little bit around the polarization. Those four things, yes, the younger generation has to be very afraid of those things," he said.
Gates shared these insights during a conversation with Patrick Collison at&nbsp;the Computer History Museum last&nbsp;week.
"It's fine that people are worrying about the problems we face, including how we shape AI and polarization and we're arguably less ready for a pandemic now than after the last one because of the divisiveness that's come in around that."
Gates, 69,&nbsp;added climate change to the&nbsp;list of pressing issues&nbsp;for millennials and Gen Z. Despite these challenges, he expressed optimism about the future, citing advancements in health and literacy.

"The&nbsp;big headline is people are&nbsp;living longer, people are learning&nbsp;more, people are more literate."
Gates, who also co-founded the&nbsp;Gates Foundation, suggested that emphasizing these issues might sometimes involve exaggerating their impact to motivate action.
He remains hopeful, predicting breakthroughs in diseases like Alzheimer&#8217;s and HIV, and the eradication of polio and malaria.

Why It Matters: Gates&#8217; emphasis on artificial intelligence aligns with his previous discussions on the topic.
Earlier, Gates highlighted&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/23/12/36322815/bill-gates-reveals-five-cutting-edge-ai-innovations-he-is-excited-about">AI&#8217;s transformative potential</a>&nbsp;in healthcare, underscoring its role in consumer applications.
However, he also acknowledged AI&#8217;s limitations, noting that while it is not a panacea, its benefits are substantial. He elaborated on AI&#8217;s strengths and weaknesses during an interview, emphasizing its potential despite current shortcomings.
Gates further explored AI&#8217;s societal impact, predicting that its integration into the workforce could lead to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/12/42438799/bill-gates-predicts-ai-in-the-workforce-will-lead-to-so-much-leisure-time-but-itll-create-a-what-do-we-do-with-all-that-time-problem">increased leisure time</a>.
However, he raised concerns about the societal implications of this shift, questioning how people will utilize the additional time.
