(Austin, TX) The Texas Lottery has confirmed that the largest prize paid out for Tuesday's Mega Millions multi-state lottery game was sold in Texas. The big money winner did not claim the game's jackpot prize, but wound up missing that historical jackpot amount by just one number. As if that kind of "great luck frustration" isn't enough, another ticket sold in Texas had that same number match scenario, missing the jackpot by just one, but wound up winning $10,000 less than the first ticket because of the new Mega Millions lottery format. Texas Lottery players, at least based on the numbers I have seen, are really enjoying the newly revamped version of Mega Millions. That game reinvented itself in April, and the jackpots are growing just as game officials projected that they would. Tuesday's jackpot amount of $714 million is the largest jackpot amount that has been offered under the new format. Here is how Tuesday's drawing for October 28, 2025, unfolded. As we mentioned, there were no jackpot winners in Mega Millions last night. There were also Match 5 Million winners. That means the game's top prizes went to tickets that had the number match scenario of four white balls and the Mega Ball. There were two Texas-sold tickets, as we've mentioned, that did that. One of those tickets had a "4x" multiplier; the other ticket had a "3x" multiplier, so their prize winnings were $40,000 and $30,000 each. All in all, we estimated that the Texas Lottery sold just over 38,000 winning tickets for Tuesday's Mega Millions. If you want to see if you're holding one of those 38,000-plus winners, here are the numbers from Tuesday's Mega Millions drawing. 02 19 33 53 61 Mega Ball 14 Just over 1,100 Texas-sold tickets had their winnings multiplied by ten last night, so do check those numbers and verify your winnings at the Official Texas Lottery Website. The Texas Powerball drawing will be held tonight, Wednesday. The top prize in that game is just about half of what Mega Millions currently is. The Powerball jackpot is $376 million. That next drawing happens at 10 tonight. Lotto Texas with Extra! will also draw tonight in Texas. The top prize in that game is a jackpot estimated to be $70.5 million. And the Halloween edition of Mega Millions? That drawing on Friday could earn you a prize in excess of $754 million. Please remember that lottery games involve a risk a losing money.

With a few days left before closing, Binance’s native token, BNB, leads predictions on the decentralized platform EveryX as the top-performing cryptocurrency for October 2025, capturing 75% of participant sentiment, while Solana’s native token, SOL, tops forecasts for the month’s worst performer with 40%. The ongoing event on EveryX allows users to forecast which cryptocurrency will post the strongest and weakest performance in USDT terms by the end of October. Results will be finalized once October’s market performance concludes. As of writing, the market for the best-performing cryptocurrency has attracted 87 participants. It offers up to 10x leverage and a maximum return of 2,441%. According to current data, BNB holds a commanding lead at 87%, followed by BTC at 4% and ETH at 5%. SOL and DOGE trail at 1%, while other listed assets, specifically XRP, DOGE, TRX, and ADA, are at 0%. “Other Outcome,” which points to other assets that are not included in the list, accounts for 1% of predictions. In September, EveryX accurately predicted that BNB would be September 2025’s top-performing cryptocurrency, as the token rose over 10% during the month, which aligned with user forecasts that placed BNB ahead of rivals like DOGE, SOL, and ETH. Currently, BNB continues to dominate the cryptocurrency market as it reaches multiple all-time highs and shows strong momentum as October draws to a close. The token recently surged to a record $1,369 on October 13, according to market data, extending a rally that began in June and has since more than doubled its value. Investor sentiment was further buoyed after U.S. President Donald Trump pardoned Binance founder Changpeng Zhao. Following the pardon, BNB’s trading volume spiked nearly 35% above its seven-day average. The rally also coincides with BNB’s listing on major U.S. trading platforms Robinhood and Coinbase, which expanded access for retail investors. Meanwhile, the BNB Chain reported over 58 million monthly active addresses, outpacing other blockchains such as Solana and Ethereum in network activity. Adding to the positive momentum, Kyrgyzstan announced plans to launch a national stablecoin and a central bank digital currency built on BNB Chain, alongside a proposed national cryptocurrency reserve that will include BNB tokens. Moreover, BNB also briefly surpassed XRP earlier this month to become the world’s third-largest cryptocurrency, with a market cap of around $180 billion after a 26.5% weekly surge, but has since slipped back to fourth rank amid market corrections. At the time of writing, BNB is valued at the $1,100 mark, which is a 10.9% increase in the past month. Currently, market prediction points to SOL as the top prediction for the worst-performing cryptocurrency in October 2025. SOL secured 40% of user sentiment as of October 29. XRP, DOGE, and ADA followed with 13% each, while TRX trailed at 7%. The prediction event, which drew 57 participants, allows users to forecast crypto market outcomes using collective sentiment backed by financial stakes, with a maximum leverage of 10x and potential returns of up to 716%. In a recent market analysis, SOL was noted to continue to struggle below the $200 mark as profit volatility and rising exchange inflows weigh on its price. Despite brief gains, data shows that many investors bought near $200, causing quick sell-offs whenever prices dip. Around 1.5 million SOL, worth about $300 million, has recently moved to exchanges, signaling increased selling pressure. Unless SOL establishes $200 as solid support, analysts warn it could face further declines toward $183 or lower. As of writing, SOL is valued below the $200 mark, a 6.1% decrease in the last 30 days. EveryX is an on-chain prediction market platform that lets users vote on outcomes like BTC’s closing price or the best-performing cryptocurrency for a given period. Using Binance USDT spot data for settlement, it rewards participants who predict correctly and serves as a real-time gauge of market sentiment among retail crypto users. In an interview, EveryX Southeast Asia Lead Steve “Icesteam” Jimenez highlighted that the platform uses AI-powered tools and financially backed predictions to turn collective user sentiment into measurable market data, distinguishing it from traditional polling. Moreover, speaking at Taipei Blockchain Week 2025, he said EveryX aims to expand beyond web3 and esports into broader sectors like entertainment and politics while developing APIs for data integration In September, the platform’s executives said the crypto bull market still has room to grow, citing strong BTC support and rising institutional adoption, though they warned that geopolitical tensions or U.S. crypto sell-offs could trigger a downturn.

(Baton Rouge, LA) The Louisiana Lottery had a very busy night last night. Our sources in Baton Rouge at the Lottery offices say there were multiple "10x" winners in the state as part of Tuesday's multi-state Mega Millions drawing. The "enhanced wins" are part of the new format of the Mega Millions Lottery game that was introduced to Louisiana's lottery players in April of this year. It was noted that before the ping pong balls left the hopper for last night's drawing, the estimated jackpot prize was $714 million. READ MORE: These Are the Most Commonly Drawn Mega Millions Numbers READ MORE: Playing Powerball? These Are the Most Commonly Drawn Numbers Last night's Mega Millions drawing was only the ninth time the game has offered a jackpot prize in excess of $700 million. The jackpot was also the ninth-largest jackpot ever produced by the game. The last time a Mega Millions jackpot was won, it was 34 drawings ago. And after Tuesday's game, we can with confidence tell you it is now 35 drawings ago. So, no. No one won the jackpot prize of $714 million in last night's drawing. Our sources at Mega Millions indicate that game officials are now preparing for a historic drawing on Friday night. The jackpot on Friday is estimated to be $754 million for the annuitized jackpot or $352.8 million for the cash option. With those numbers in play, Friday's Mega Millions drawing will be for the largest lottery prize ever offered in a Halloween drawing. Game officials tell us that, in addition to the no jackpot wins last night, there were also no Match 5 Million wins either. In fact, the largest prize that we saw on the game board was a pair of tickets that earned a prize of $40,000 each, and no, those tickets were not sold in Louisiana. Meanwhile, the Louisiana Lottery is suggesting that quite a few lottery players "have a reason to smile" this morning since last night's game did produce an abundance of winning tickets with a "ten times" multiplier attached. Here are the Mega Millions numbers for October 28, 2025. 02 19 33 53 61 Mega Ball 14 Now, as you check your tickets, if you feel as though you have a prize-worthy match, you can verify that win via the Winners Portal at the Louisiana Lottery website. Based on data from Tuesday night, it looks as if there were slightly over 2,100 winning tickets sold in Louisiana. And, we did mention the "10x" multiplier, so you'll be pleased to know that 161 of those winning tickets had their prize winnings multiplied by 10. The biggest prize awarded to a Louisiana ticket in Tuesday's drawing was $2,500. Oddly enough, that big win came on a "5x" multiplier. Wednesday's lottery action in Louisiana will be highlighted by a Powerball jackpot of $376 million. There will also be a drawing in the Louisiana Lottery's Lotto game. That game boasts a prize of $3.3 million. Easy 5 will also be drawn on Wednesday. The top prize in that game is $130,000. All lottery games involve a risk of losing money.

Bitcoin price remains stuck in a tight trading range as investors wait for two major events this week. The cryptocurrency has recovered 13% since its October 10 sell-off but faces strong resistance at $116,000. The Federal Reserve will announce its interest rate decision on Wednesday. Most traders expect a 25 basis point cut to the benchmark rate. Bitcoin price currently trades near $112,637 after a failed attempt to break through $116,000 earlier this week. Order book data from Binance and Coinbase shows heavy selling pressure above $116,000. Futures traders on Binance have placed large sell orders between $117,000 and $118,000. This wall of asks has blocked multiple attempts to push higher. Short liquidations reached $49.83 million in the past 12 hours as price approached the resistance level. However, sellers keep capping rallies before bulls can establish a foothold above $116,000. Data from Hyblock reveals an interesting split in market behavior. Large investors with order sizes between 1 million and 10 million are selling when price rises. Meanwhile, retail investors with smaller orders between 1,000 and 10,000 are buying dips. This pattern has created a ping-pong effect between $110,000 support and $116,000 resistance. The aggregate orderbook shows more sellers than buyers at current levels. Short positions at Binance have also increased recently. Global exchange open interest recovered to $31.48 billion from its October 11 low of $28.11 billion. But this remains well below the $40.39 billion seen when Bitcoin traded at $124,600. Spot Bitcoin ETF inflows show positive momentum. The last three trading sessions brought $260.23 million in net flows. October 21 saw a large $477 million inflow shortly after price fell below $108,000. On October 28, Bitcoin spot ETFs recorded a total net inflow of $202 million, marking four third consecutive day of inflows. Ethereum spot ETFs saw a total net inflow of $246 million, with Fidelity's FETH leading at a net inflow of $99.271 million. https://t.co/SF4brkl9iIpic.twitter.com/dsVHSFnYOh — Wu Blockchain (@WuBlockchain) October 29, 2025
Analyst Ali Martinez says Bitcoin needs to climb above $120,000 to open a path toward $143,000. His analysis uses long-term pricing bands built from on-chain averages. Once price clears $120,000, less resistance exists until the next band around $143,000. Bitcoin $BTC needs to break above $120,000 to open the path toward a new all-time high of $143,000, according to the Pricing Bands. pic.twitter.com/hFuFKQ7OIF — Ali (@ali_charts) October 28, 2025
Michael van de Poppe views the recent drop as routine pre-FOMC price action. He wants $112,000 to hold as support before expecting another push higher. He sees this as a normal dip rather than a trend reversal. Glassnode data shows many recent buyers concentrated near $111,000. Heavier selling interest sits around $117,000. This concentration creates the current tug-of-war between buyers and sellers. Trading volume spiked to 22,844 Bitcoin on October 28 at 14:00 UTC. That represents 174% of the 24-hour average. Price reached the daily high near $116,094 before sellers pushed it back down. Some investors are reducing risk exposure ahead of Wednesday’s Federal Open Market Committee meeting. Traders often adjust positions before Fed announcements. This behavior has become common in crypto markets. The US-China trade summit on Thursday adds another layer of uncertainty. President Donald Trump will meet with Chinese President Xi Jinping. Market reaction to any trade deal could impact both equities and crypto. A cluster of leveraged long positions sits between $112,000 and $113,000. These positions face liquidation risk if price drops. Support at $112,500 has held so far with buyers stepping in at that level. Price slipped about 1.2% over 24 hours from $113,973 to $112,568. Recent candles have gotten smaller, which often signals traders are pausing and waiting. Current resistance stands at $115,600 to $116,200 with support at $112,500. Most trading over the past month has occurred inside a $111,000 to $117,000 corridor. Until price breaks out of this range, more back-and-forth movement is likely. A firm move above $116,000 would target $119,000 to $120,000 next. 📈 Futures & Crypto Trader 🔍 Sharing charts, strategies, & mindset tips to help you level up 🚨 Not Financial Advice Follow on X @Pro_Trader_Edge TLDR Ethereum price dropped from $4,252 to below $4,000 after starting a downside correction The…
