The $1T+ crypto wipeout deepened as Bitcoin hit a 7-month low, marking a new phase of the 2025 crash
$4.3T was the crypto market cap on Oct. 6, now down to about $3.2T.
2. Google updates Quick Share to work with Appleâs AirDrop, starting with Pixel 10
Allows wireless transfer of photos, videos, and files between Android phones and iPhones.
iPhone users must switch AirDrop to âEveryone for 10 minutesâ to receive files from a Pixel.
The feature is built âwith security at its coreâ and vetted by independent experts, Google said.
It was not a collab with Apple and was developed through Googleâs âown implementation,â a Google spokesperson said.
