According to CoinDesk, a snapshot from Galaxy Research in October shows that out of approximately 21 million mined Bitcoins, about 11.1 million (approximately 55%) are held in addresses that cannot be linked to exchanges, funds, governments, or other known entities. Alex Thorn, the head of research at Galaxy, stated that this indicates that despite the increasing institutionalization, a significant amount of Bitcoin may still be self-custodied by individuals. Xapo Bank believes this reflects the fact that retail investors have been in the market for over a decade.However, this portion of unallocated Bitcoin does not all belong to individuals who have been self-custodying for the long term; it may also include coins that are inaccessible due to lost private keys or the death of the holder, holdings from institutions or over-the-counter traders that Galaxy has not yet identified, as well as custodial assets spread across multiple addresses. The remaining 45% has been allocated, including ETFs from issuers like exchanges and BlackRock, as well as the U.S. government; among them, the single largest holder is "Satoshi Nakamoto (Patoshi model)," holding 1,123,658 BTC.

According to a report by the Economic Daily, Apple's first foldable device, the iPhone Duo, quickly sold out after its launch on October 23 on the official website and major channels, with all models sold out on the same day. The second wave of shipments is expected to arrive on January 22, 2027. Supply chain sources indicate that Apple has requested its partners to expedite production and increase orders by 30%, with optimism surrounding Hon Hai, TSMC, and New Kinpo Group benefiting from this.The report states that scalper prices once reached NT$100,000, a premium of about 33% over the minimum entry price of NT$74,900. Industry insiders noted that the initial stock was insufficient, affected by assembly yield rates and demand exceeding Apple's expectations. Market research firms originally anticipated a stock volume of only 6 million units this year, which was later revised up to 8 million to 10 million units, with shipments expected to reach 33 million units by 2027, and it is estimated that it could capture about 40% of the global foldable device market next year.Supply chain sources indicate that the complete assembly is exclusively handled by Hon Hai, the core processor chips are manufactured by TSMC, and key bearing components are supplied by a joint venture between Hon Hai and New Kinpo Group, with Amphenol as the second supplier. The industry believes that insufficient production capacity is mainly limited by bearing capacity and the difficulty of complete assembly. The above content is a summary of supply chain and market research estimates and is not an official announcement from Apple.

According to Slow Fog monitoring, Yapeswap suffered an attack, resulting in a loss of approximately $21,900. The root of the incident lies in the WorkersUnion governance mechanism, where the quorum requirement is zero, allowing a proposal that received only about 0.000055% voting support to transfer the feeToSetter authority of YapeFactory to the attacker.The attacker subsequently deployed a malicious Registry contract, causing latestVault() to return a forged vault address, while vaults() still listed the real vault. YapePair accounted for the deposits to be transferred as farm assets, but did not receive redeemable shares, ultimately leading to a loss of funds. This incident involves contracts such as YapeFactory, YapePair, and YapeWrapper.

Dragonfly partner Haseeb Qureshi published a response to DFINITY founder Dominic Williams regarding the accusation of unauthorized use of threshold ECDSA signature technology by NEAR Intents. He shared screenshots of the relevant patent application, showing that the patent was not approved until the end of July this year and had been in "patent application" status prior to that. NEAR Intents modified the relevant algorithm in September this year. Haseeb Qureshi added that if what Dominic Williams claims is true, the so-called patent infringement may only involve about a month of time, and the relevant algorithm was originally published in an academic paper licensed under CC BY, which NEAR also cited in its implementation.
