The artificial intelligence company Anthropic is about to sprint towards its IPO. The draft prospectus shows that revenue in the first half of 2026 is expected to increase from $1.1 billion in the same period last year to $16.3 billion, while net losses are projected to widen from $13 billion to $80.7 billion. Of this, $72 billion comes from the accounting revaluation of financing instruments such as convertible notes; the increase in valuation makes the conversion rights more valuable, and the fair value increase of related financing liabilities needs to be recognized as a loss in the income statement, which does not represent an equivalent cash expenditure for the current period, but future conversions may dilute existing shareholders.The net loss for the entire last year was $42 billion, of which about $34 billion came from similar accounting adjustments. In the first half of the year, investments in computing power and infrastructure approached $9 billion, compared to $2.3 billion in the same period last year. The draft prospectus lists over $600 billion in future cloud services and chip-related contracts, with some commitments being irrevocable; if agreements still under negotiation are included, the potential total could reach $750 billion.

According to Bloomberg, the Milan prosecutor's office stated that Italian authorities are conducting arrest operations against 30 individuals suspected of operating a mafia-linked underground bank. This network is alleged to have transferred approximately 68 million euros abroad and used cryptocurrency to launder illegal funds.The operation extends to Spain, where local police are executing European arrest warrants, and Swiss authorities are also seeking to apprehend another suspect. The prosecutor's office claims that the network is based around a car rental company near Milan, using shell companies to issue false service invoices, helping involved businesses in construction, logistics, and other industries reduce taxable income. After companies made payments via bank transfers, the network deducted commissions and returned the funds in cash.Funds in the shell company accounts were transferred to banks in Luxembourg, Lithuania, and Germany, and then entered digital wallets allegedly controlled by the organization through cryptocurrency exchanges. Investigators identified over 110 million euros in false invoices and found that the network also handled drug trafficking proceeds and funds from victims of online cryptocurrency investment scams.

On-chain detective ZachXBT posted that a certain institution was allegedly hacked by the North Korean-linked organization SquidSquad on October 8, resulting in the theft of approximately 2.84 million USD on the BNB Smart Chain (BSC).According to its tracking, the attackers deposited 1,111.2 ETH into Tornado Cash on October 20, then withdrew it to three addresses, and subsequently transferred the funds from Ethereum to Tron via USDT, consolidating them into two addresses.

The funds were then directed to Chinese over-the-counter (OTC) traders through intermediary addresses within minutes, and ZachXBT believes this move may be to evade potential fund freezes by Tether.

On October 20, 2026, Jason Pagoulatos, a macro and market author at the cryptocurrency research institution Delphi Digital, released a report titled "The House Always Wins: Why Speculation is the Theme of This Decade." Pagoulatos stated that speculation has two long-term engines: constructive and lottery-like. Technological changes open the former, while fiscal and political pressures open the latter; historically, many famous bubbles have been driven by one or the other. Today, both are operating at high speed simultaneously, and the same batch of technologies is feeding both. He thus considers speculation itself as an investable theme, advocating for holding places for liquidation bets rather than holding the bets themselves.The data cited in the report includes that the U.S. federal deficit for fiscal year 2025 is $1.8 trillion, about 5.8% of GDP, with net interest around $1 trillion per year, exceeding defense spending. The Harvard Joint Center for Housing Studies states that the national median price for single-family homes in 2024 is 5.0 times the median household income; the National Association of Realtors reports that first-time homebuyers account for 21% of transactions, with a median age of 40. According to the American Gaming Association, legal sports betting amounts have risen from $6.6 billion in 2018 to $166.9 billion in 2025. Capital expenditures for Microsoft, Alphabet, Amazon, and Meta are approximately $416 billion for 2025, with guidance for 2026 totaling about $720 billion to $745 billion, plus Oracle.In terms of venues, Robinhood's event contract revenue for Q2 2026 is $156 million, higher than stock revenue of $129 million and crypto revenue of $100 million during the same period. Hyperliquid's expenses for 2025 are about $972 million, with transactions around $3 trillion. Kalshi reportedly raised funds at a valuation of about $40 billion, and Polymarket is set to relaunch in the U.S. by the end of 2025. The author also mentions that the most likely mistake is to hold inventory of the crowd and call it a casino. The report states that it is for educational and general informational purposes only and is not investment advice; the author may hold Bitcoin, HYPE, HOOD, and LIT, and affiliated party Delphi Ventures may invest in the assets or agreements discussed in the report.

Micron Technology Vice President Li Zhe stated at the Korea Semiconductor Exhibition SEDEX 2026 held at COEX in Seoul that the company is developing Edge Inference Memory (EIM) for physical AI. The industry expects this product to enter mass production in the second half of 2028. Micron is researching the use of EIM in LPDDR6 to meet the demand for low-power DRAM in applications such as autonomous driving and humanoid robots, and is in discussions with major customers regarding related products.According to a report by the Science and Technology Innovation Board Daily, EIM is positioned between AI chips and memory, utilizing a method of stacking LPDDR on logic chips to process inference data at high speed, although the computing architecture has not been fully disclosed. Li Zhe mentioned that current robotic AI models have about 1 billion to 2 billion parameters, with low bandwidth requirements; however, as more advanced visual language models emerge, LPDDR alone will not suffice, and HBM will eventually be used for humanoid robots. Micron anticipates that future high-performance humanoid robots will require approximately 200 GB of DRAM and 4 TB of storage, while current service robots require about 12 GB of DRAM and 256 GB of storage.Micron CEO Sanjay Mehrotra stated that the storage capacity of a single humanoid robot is about 10 times that of an ordinary L2+ passenger vehicle. The storage industry may enter a period of sustained demand growth for several decades around 2030, driven by the need to synchronize data from hundreds of sensors and run large models locally for millisecond-level control. Counterpoint Research predicts that global DRAM demand for humanoid robots will increase from approximately 8,300 Tbit this year to about 172,000 Tbit by 2030.
