GLASGOW—There is a dingy, narrow alleyway around the back of the Horseshoe Bar here that looks like a place where something unpleasant could happen. It is also one of the reasons Scotland’s biggest city has landed a recurring role as Batman’s hometown.

With its mix of neoclassical buildings and grimy back streets, location scouts have discovered Glasgow is an ideal match for Gotham City.

In the latest movie, “The Batman,” out next month, the Dark Knight revs his batcycle past museums, through city squares and up into a vast, hillside cemetery. Robert Pattinson, who plays Bruce Wayne, praised the city and its brooding architecture in the local Daily Record newspaper, calling Glasgow a brilliant Gotham.

Bitcoin may not see a bull market until late 2024 or the beginning of 2025, if past price cycles are any indication, according to the co-founder of Huobi, one of the world’s largest cryptocurrency exchanges.

Du Jun told CNBC that bitcoin bull markets are closely tied to a process called halving, which occurs every few years.

This relates to so-called miners on the bitcoin network, which run powerful specialized computers to solve complex mathematical puzzles to validate transactions on the bitcoin network. Miners are rewarded in bitcoin as a result.

On Jan. 5, federal agents showed up at the couple’s Wall Street apartment with a search warrant.

At the apartment, investigators seized a plastic baggie marked “burner phone,” more than $40,000 in cash and more than 50 electronic devices, prosecutors said in court filings.

According to prosecutors’ filings, the couple chose to leave the premises while the agents searched. They asked to bring their cat, which was hiding under the bed.

As Ms. Morgan attempted to coax the cat out from hiding, she grabbed a phone from a nightstand, the filings said. She tried to repeatedly press the lock button, which prosecutors said appeared to be an attempt to keep investigators from being able to search it, and law-enforcement officials had to wrest the phone from her.

Federal investigators spent years hunting for clues in the 2016 hacking of the Bitfinex cryptocurrency exchange, when thieves stole bitcoin now worth $4.5 billion. In the end, what helped lead them to two suspects was something much more quotidian: a $500 Walmart gift card.

That card and more than a dozen others like it, including for Uber, Hotels.com and PlayStation, were linked to emails and cloud service providers belonging to a young Manhattan couple, Ilya “Dutch” Lichtenstein and Heather R. Morgan, according to a criminal complaint. Authorities arrested the couple after seizing $3.6 billion worth of bitcoin allegedly in their control—the Justice Department’s largest financial seizure ever.

Virgin Galactic Holdings Inc. SPCE +31.93% is getting ready to send consumers to space.

The spaceflight company said it would open ticket sales to the public starting Wednesday. The New Mexico-based company is charging $450,000 for a reservation, a third of which must be paid in an initial deposit, and the rest of which will be paid before their flight. 

The company disclosed a price estimate last year and had said it was planning to start commercial service in 2022.

“We plan to have our first 1,000 customers on board at the start of commercial service later this year,” Virgin Galactic Chief Executive Michael Colglazier said Tuesday. The 90-minute flight will launch from New Mexico’s Spaceport America. Travelers will undergo several days of spaceflight preparedness activities before takeoff, the company said.
