CCTV's public account exposed details of the special case of the Wei family criminal group in Wa State, Myanmar, revealing that the Wei family criminal group's Weisheng Garden chose the electric fraud industry under the technical support of some so-called "financial investment management" concepts, implementing scams through concepts such as "trust funds" or "blockchain projects" as financial disguises. The police in the special case group learned that with the support of fraud technology, a single market could yield over 100 million yuan. Zhang Hanyi, deputy director of the Quanzhou Public Security Bureau in Fujian Province, stated that the amount of fraud identified so far is nearly 6 billion yuan, with the turnover of the gambling operations approaching 10 billion yuan, and "what has been clarified so far is only a part; it is impossible to clarify everything due to objective conditions abroad."

[](127,271 Bitcoins, the funds are related to a multinational "pig butchering" scam
The U.S. is seeking to seize 127,271 Bitcoins (approximately $12 billion), which are related to a multinational "pig butchering" scam operated by Cambodian citizen CHEN ZHI. The U.S. Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) has imposed comprehensive sanctions on 146 targets within the Prince Group transnational criminal organization (Prince Group TCO). The organization is headquartered in Cambodia and led by Cambodian citizen Chen Zhi, operating a transnational criminal empire through online investment scams targeting the U.S. and other regions worldwide.
Japan's top financial regulator will introduce regulations to prohibit insider trading in cryptocurrencies and impose additional fees based on the amount of profits obtained through illegal trading. The legal amendment will be submitted to parliament in 2026. The Securities and Exchange Surveillance Commission (SESC) will be authorized to investigate suspected violations and recommend additional fines or criminal charges for trades based on undisclosed information. Japan currently relies on self-regulation through cryptocurrency exchanges and the Japan Virtual and Crypto Assets Exchange Association. The plan will first explicitly prohibit cryptocurrency trading based on undisclosed information in the "Foreign Investment Law." Based on this, the Financial Services Agency (FSA) can issue detailed guidelines clarifying which behaviors will be regulated. For example, if one is aware of information regarding a listing plan or significant security vulnerability before it is disclosed and trades based on that knowledge, they may be subject to prohibitions.
Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell hinted that although the government shutdown significantly weakened its ability to observe the economy, the Fed is on track to cut interest rates by another 25 basis points later this month. Powell stated in his speech that the economic outlook has not changed since the September meeting. At that time, the Fed lowered interest rates and predicted two more cuts this year. Julia Coronado, founder of MacroPolicy Perspectives and former Fed economist, said, "The rate cut in October is a done deal. Nothing can change the view that there are still downside risks in the labor market." Powell has repeatedly pointed out that hiring rates are low and may weaken further. After Powell's speech, expectations for an October rate cut remained virtually unchanged. Federal funds futures contracts show that investors believe the likelihood of a rate cut is close to 100%. Yelena Shulyatyeva, senior U.S. economist at the Conference Board, stated, "Currently, the risks in the job market are rising. This will be a major driver of recent decisions."

Celsius had accused Tether of improperly liquidating 39,542 Bitcoins before the 10-hour waiting period mandated in 2022 expired. The newly reached settlement amount is approximately 7% of the $4.3 billion in damages Celsius initially sought, concluding one of the last disputes in the company's three-year bankruptcy case. Celsius filed for bankruptcy in July 2022 due to a $1.2 billion balance sheet gap. Former Celsius CEO Alex Mashinsky was sentenced to 12 years in prison in May this year for admitting to commodity fraud and manipulating the price of Celsius's native token CEL.

Binance contracts take the marked price, which is the weighted average price after excluding extreme prices from multiple platforms, and you are welcome to verify it yourself. Historically, some platforms take their own prices, making it easy for users to be liquidated by spot price fluctuations, leading them to believe the platform is malicious; thus, one of the innovations of Binance contracts is to use marked prices for liquidation to avoid extreme prices from a single platform. The K-line issue has no motive or reason; it was entirely due to someone on the team getting overly excited, thinking the announcement had explained it clearly. The only impact is that apart from the market vacuum, a user's historical order from years ago made a few dozen dollars." Additionally, He Yi responded to community users asking "why change the K-line," stating: "With more people, it's hard to manage the team, and if I let go and give it to the team, I have to come out and apologize and clean up. Binance is still the same Binance; execution does need to be polished and polished again."
