Once spot demand turns positive, Bitcoin will experience strong upward momentum.

According to Cointelegraph, data from the French Ministry of the Interior shows that from January to mid-August 2026, France has experienced 90 cases involving cryptocurrency-related kidnappings, extortion, and violent thefts, averaging one incident every 2.5 days.Blockchain analysis company Chainalysis reported that as of mid-2026, there have been 30 publicly recorded incidents of violent attacks involving cryptocurrency in France; security company Gart.io tracked 73 real-world attacks occurring in France this year, surpassing the 66 in the United States and 27 in the United Kingdom.Eric Jardine, head of research at Chainalysis, believes that the surge in attacks is likely related to large-scale data breaches. The leak of French tax data and the user data breach disclosed by the cryptocurrency tax reporting platform Waltio in 2026 may have allowed attackers to obtain the identities, addresses, and asset information of cryptocurrency holders.The report also noted that over 40% of related attacks in France involve relatives or acquaintances of the victims, with criminals potentially identifying targets in advance through social media, on-chain data, and leaked information. French authorities are coordinating investigations through a specialized organized crime judicial agency.

According to Decrypt, Decrypt has announced that its self-custody Money Accounts are now live on Solana, providing readers with a single balance that can be used across all Decrypt products to support its financial and intelligence market, The Information Exchange. Decrypt co-founder Ilan Hazan stated that the goal is to achieve one account and one balance, allowing users to utilize various financial tools directly from where they obtain information, from prediction markets to perpetual contracts and swaps. Users can manage all positions in one place without worrying about wallets, cross-chain bridges, or public chains, with relevant partners to be announced in the coming weeks.Deposits and balances are denominated in USDT on Solana, and the same balance can support products such as Earn, Swaps, Predictions, and Perps. Gas and rent are sponsored through joint signatures by payers, so users do not need to hold SOL or consider network fees. The account operates in a self-custody mode, meaning Decrypt does not hold private keys and cannot perform operations on behalf of users, with a private key export feature coming soon. Cross-chain operations are completed at the underlying level; for example, the Myriad Predictions market settles on the BNB Chain, yet users can still trade using the same Solana USDT balance without needing to interact with a cross-chain bridge.Existing Myriad Wallet users can directly use Decrypt Money Accounts, with one account and one balance covering both Decrypt and Myriad without the need for migration.

On October 8, the spokesperson of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Mao Ning, hosted a regular press conference. A Reuters reporter asked about the allegations made by the American cybersecurity company CrowdStrike that Chinese individuals and related institutions used AI tools to attack South Korean financial institutions.Mao Ning stated: "I am not familiar with the specific situation mentioned. As a principle, China has always opposed and legally cracked down on hacking activities, and even more so opposes the dissemination of false information for political purposes." She also stated that artificial intelligence profoundly affects cybersecurity, and the international community should strengthen cooperation and dialogue, formulate new international rules, and jointly maintain cybersecurity.

The semiconductor research organization SemiAnalysis released a survey on Chinese data centers, tracking over 1,000 facilities from more than 60 operators. The report estimates that by the end of 2026, China's data center capacity will exceed 24GW, second only to the United States' 56GW. ByteDance accounts for nearly one-fifth of this, making it the largest data center tenant in the country.ByteDance has leased over 4GW of data center capacity, with suppliers including Qinhuai Data, China United Network Communications, and Century Internet. The report states that by early 2026, ByteDance will still contribute about 90% of Qinhuai Data's revenue. ByteDance has also begun to accelerate its self-built data centers, constructing large facilities in Shanxi, Anhui, and Inner Mongolia to reduce reliance on external suppliers.The report also mentions that while Chinese data centers have long been considered to have a high vacancy rate, AI server rooms are still in short supply. This is due to many old server rooms lacking sufficient power supply and cooling capabilities, making it difficult to directly deploy high-power AI servers, while newly built large AI data centers are quickly being rented out. For example, a 100MW data center, excluding IT equipment such as servers, has a construction cost of about $300 million in China and about $1.5 billion in the United States, with Chinese facilities of the same scale typically delivered in about 12 months. Compared to the power supply and approval issues faced by the United States, the more prominent bottleneck for expanding AI data centers in China is the supply of advanced chips.

The UK HM Revenue and Customs is pushing to expand the investigative powers regarding cryptocurrency asset information, proposing to allow tax authorities to directly obtain customer data from cryptocurrency service providers and update software and electronic record inspection rules.UK cryptocurrency tax software company Recap warned that the proposed regulations have an overly broad definition of service providers, which may include non-custodial wallet software, blockchain explorers, hardware wallet manufacturers, and tax software providers. Due to the public and transparent nature of Bitcoin transaction records, once investors' names, addresses, and tax identities are associated with on-chain wallet addresses, it may expose their long-term asset activity records, increasing the risks of data breaches, extortion, and personal attacks.

Bitcoin collateralized lending is gradually expanding from a cryptocurrency financial scene focused on trading and investment to real credit needs such as tuition fees, living expenses, business operating funds, and real estate, showing a significant change in market usage. Institutions like SALT Lending and Ledn indicate that more and more borrowers are choosing to collateralize BTC for liquidity instead of selling their holdings.Since its establishment in 2018, Ledn has issued loans totaling over $11 billion and expects this scale to grow to $1 trillion in the coming years. Its clients include entrepreneurs and institutional investors seeking operating funds, as well as individuals borrowing to pay for children's education, real estate investments, and short-term living expenses. This trend indicates that the financial attributes of BTC are extending from "tradable assets" further to "collateralizable assets." Borrowers hope to unlock its value without selling BTC while still retaining potential upside exposure.At the same time, institutions like SALT are promoting fixed-rate, long-term products, bringing crypto collateralized loans closer to traditional credit models like home mortgages. Coinbase has also recently launched fixed-rate BTC collateralized loans through Morpho. Ledn further anticipates that similar models may expand from BTC to traditional hard assets like gold, and the boundaries of the collateralized asset lending market are widening.

According to Slow Mist's Yu Xian monitoring, phishing attacks targeting FOMO's web bookmarks are emerging.Such phishing webpages lure users into completing fake human verification, dragging malicious JavaScript code into the browser's favorites and saving it as a bookmark. After the user clicks on this bookmark 2 to 3 times, the previously logged-in FOMO account will be hijacked by the attacker, and the encrypted assets within the account will be immediately stolen.

Kaiko and Upbit recently jointly released a report showing that the Korean won accounts for about 25% of the global fiat-denominated cryptocurrency trading volume, second only to the US dollar (approximately 48.70%). On Upbit, a market buy order of 10 million Korean won typically has slippage between 0.005% and 0.02%.The report points out that the South Korean market still primarily relies on fiat-native trading, with KRW trading pairs dominating trading activities. Stablecoins like USDT and USDC are more often used as assets traded against the Korean won rather than as the primary settlement medium. South Korean exchanges are deeply integrated with the banking system through real-name accounts and KYC, allowing users to directly withdraw and deposit in Korean won, reducing the demand for stablecoins as tools for withdrawal and deposit.The report believes that the opportunities for Korean won stablecoins lie in on-chain settlement, cross-border payments, and DeFi scenarios, and may help narrow premiums by improving the efficiency of value transfer across markets. However, adoption still depends on regulations, reserve standards, redemption rights, and exchange integration.
