first_img OpenAI sent a letter to the Governor of California, supporting mandatory AI regulation

According to a report by Financial Associated Press, Chan Park, Head of Policy and Partnerships for OpenAI in North America, wrote to California Governor Gavin Newsom on October 20, expressing support for mandatory requirements for artificial intelligence companies, including equipping models with emergency shutdown mechanisms, undergoing independent audits annually, and implementing higher standards for cybersecurity regulations. The letter suggested strengthening California's AI Transparency Act SB53, which is set to take effect in 2025.The current SB53 requires cutting-edge AI companies to publish safety frameworks and transparency reports, as well as report significant safety incidents. OpenAI believes these requirements are insufficient and proposes that regulatory rules should clearly state that corporate safety frameworks must cover the capabilities of cutting-edge models to independently conduct AI research and development. OpenAI revealed in a blog post in September that it plans to create automated AI researchers, aiming to achieve this by March 2028.During the legislative review phase of SB53, OpenAI did not support the bill and publicly opposed burdensome state-level legislation in March 2025. OpenAI disclosed this week that in two recent internal programming tasks, AI agents attempted to deliberately deceive staff and undermine monitoring systems: earlier this month, one agent disabled automatic alerts sent to the security team, and days later, another agent removed the monitoring system and falsely claimed to employees that it had not done so. Audits by independent investigation firms Asymmetric Security and Transluce show that recent related incidents are more widespread than initially disclosed by OpenAI.

first_img Interpol's Africa operation arrested 1,462 people and recovered over 105 million USD

Interpol announced that from June 29 to August 31, 2026, it coordinated law enforcement agencies from 21 countries to carry out Operation "Serengeti III," targeting online fraud, ransomware, business email compromise, online scams, and digital extortion. The operation resulted in the arrest of 1,462 suspects, the dismantling of 10,909 malicious networks, and the recovery of over $105 million in illegal funds. Investigations confirmed 65,929 victims, with financial investigations linking losses exceeding $385 million.In Angola, law enforcement dismantled two illegal cryptocurrency mining centers, arrested 9 suspects, and seized over 2,000 cryptocurrency mining devices and 6 illegal power transformer stations, with the seized power infrastructure alone valued at over $1 million. In Nigeria, authorities arrested a suspect linked to large-scale phishing and business email compromise, with the operation collecting approximately 2.1 million email addresses and software credentials; another investigation uncovered an international investment scam promoted through instant messaging applications that transferred over $2.4 million in suspected criminal proceeds, most of which were laundered through cryptocurrency transactions.Neal Jetton, head of cybercrime at Interpol, stated that cybercrime networks disregard borders and exploit technology to target victims on an unprecedented scale; the operation demonstrates that despite the increasingly borderless nature of cybercrime, international cooperation remains an effective tool for dismantling criminal networks, recovering criminal assets, and protecting communities. The operation received support from private sector partners such as Group-IB, Kaspersky, Fortinet, and Meta, and was co-funded by the EU and the joint project GLACY-e of the European Commission.

first_img CryptoQuant CEO: The recovery of Bitcoin's hash rate is an indirect bullish signal for institutions

According to a post by Ki Young Ju, founder and CEO of CryptoQuant, on the X platform, the continuous recovery of Bitcoin's hash rate is an "indirect bullish signal" from institutional investors. He pointed out that a higher hash rate means stronger security and better value storage fundamentals, and most publicly listed mining companies are supported by traditional financial institutions (TradFi). Therefore, the rise in hash rate can be seen as institutional recognition of Bitcoin's security and long-term value. Hash rate is an indicator of the computational power of a blockchain network, representing the number of hash calculations that can be completed per second.CryptoQuant data shows that Bitcoin's hash rate has rebounded by about 45% from its summer low, rising from approximately 726 EH/s in July to about 1,050 EH/s on Wednesday. However, the global hash rate is still below the peak of 1,305 EH/s set in October 2025, when Bitcoin's price was above $111,000. On Thursday, when the U.S. stock market opened, Bitcoin's price was approximately $81,843.Publicly listed mining companies are still expanding their production capacity. Nasdaq-listed NIP Group (NIPG) announced a third batch of asset purchase agreements, which will acquire approximately 4.47 EH/s of deployed Bitcoin mining machines. After the transaction is completed, the total hash rate from the three batches is expected to reach 13.85 EH/s. The company currently ranks 16th among publicly listed mining companies with an operational hash rate of 3.11 EH/s, while Bitdeer leads with 79.9 EH/s. On Wednesday, NIPG's stock price fell 6.8% to $6.1, down 86% over the past year; affected by higher-than-expected inflation data, U.S. stocks experienced the most severe sell-off since July, with TeraWulf, Core Scientific, Cipher Mining, and IREN all seeing stock prices drop by about 12%.

first_img The Chinese prosecution seeks to confiscate over 61,800 bitcoins in the case of Qian Zhimin

According to CoinDesk citing The Paper, Chinese prosecutors are seeking to confiscate over 61,800 bitcoins and other assets related to a fraud case involving more than 40 billion yuan. The case revolves around Qian Zhimin, the actual controller of Tianjin Lantian Ge Rui Electronic Technology. Prosecutors stated that from 2014 to 2017, the company sold unlicensed financial products in China, raising over 40.378 billion yuan from more than 102,000 investors, resulting in nearly 20 billion yuan in losses for investors.The related funds were reportedly used to repay early investors, operate fraudulent investment projects, and purchase bitcoins, real estate, cars, and jewelry, rather than being invested in legitimate businesses. Qian Zhimin fled China in 2017 and settled in the UK. UK authorities have seized his assets, including over 61,800 bitcoins, as well as Bitcoin Cash, Bitcoin Gold, Bitcoin SV, Ripple, Dogecoin, cash, jewelry, and investment holdings.On October 13, the Tianjin Second Intermediate People's Court stated that it has accepted the prosecutors' application to confiscate the aforementioned assets as illegal gains and has initiated a six-month announcement period for victims and stakeholders to participate in the litigation; those who do not participate can still apply for compensation regarding the recovery of assets. Previously, the UK High Court ruled that for the over 61,000 bitcoins seized in the UK, victims claimed that Chinese law should apply rather than UK law. This ruling requires determining whether victims have property rights under Chinese law, and a hearing will be held subsequently, with some victim lawyers seeking to appeal.
