The crypto economy, ever the dramatic diva, closed November with a flourish, snapping its bearish tantrum and pivoting to optimism. Might Bitcoin reclaim its robust price levels?

Claudia Black, known for playing Great Mother Klothow in Star Wars: Ahsoka, revealed she won’t be returning for the show’s second season due to a financial disagreement with Disney. In an interview with Bleeding Cool, Black explained that Disney couldn’t meet her salary requirements as a single mother with responsibilities in Los Angeles, especially since the second season was being filmed in London. Ultimately, she had to decline the role.
The performance received strong criticism from the judges, with Craig Revel Horwood particularly noting it deteriorated throughout, saying it just kept getting worse.
