pre-sale

Fast Technology reported on October 19 that after the pre-sale of Apple's first foldable phone, iPhone Duo, the initial premium market quickly cooled down, and mobile phone merchants who stocked up in advance faced order price reductions. Zhengzhou mobile phone dealer Xu Shan locked in 50 units of the first batch in advance, with a total payment of 999,950 yuan, having paid a deposit of 25,000 yuan to upstream suppliers. The original plan was to resell to peers, earning 2,000 yuan per unit as initially agreed, totaling a profit of 100,000 yuan for 50 units.The intended buyer lowered the purchase price twice overnight. The price of 3,500 yuan quoted on the morning of October 17 was already below Xu Shan's original cost price plus 4,000 yuan; according to the latest quote, selling all of this batch would result in a direct loss of 25,000 yuan. Xu Shan has suspended receiving goods, will not pay the remaining balance, and has split the order to inquire about prices from multiple old customers, looking for new buyers in batches.The resale premium for ordinary purchasing users has also shrunk, with some consumers originally planning to sell at a 6,000 yuan markup, but second-hand buyers only offered a maximum of 3,000 yuan markup. Apple opened the pre-sale for iPhone Duo at 8 PM on October 16, and the in-store inventory for the launch day was sold out, with some online order delivery times postponed to late January next year. Reports quote industry insiders stating that the production ramp-up speed for the new foldable phone exceeded expectations, significantly shortening the market premium window.

According to Cryptopolitan, cybersecurity company Malwarebytes discovered that a user on a cybercrime forum is selling a "scam toolkit" for $500, which can set up a fake $TSLA token presale website with almost no technical background required.The scam process is as follows: after visitors enter an X username, the page displays their real avatar to create the illusion of a "targeted invitation," combined with a countdown and price increase warnings to create a sense of urgency. If victims choose the "15% reward link wallet" option, they will be asked to enter a 12-word recovery phrase, resulting in their wallet being emptied; if they choose to "invest" directly, they must send cryptocurrency assets to an address controlled by the scammers, and then see a fabricated balance on a fake dashboard. The toolkit's control panel allows operators to track victims in real-time, collect recovery phrases, and check wallet balances in advance to decide whether to strike. Malwarebytes discovered this toolkit on May 16, and recently IRS and Ledger users have also encountered similar phishing attacks.

The UK power stablecoin KWTUK, in collaboration with RWA Chai.io, will hold its first offline event "RWA x The Future Finance of Stablecoins" in Seoul on December 13, marking the official launch of KWTUK's entry into the South Korean market. The event will feature the release of an NFT whitelist for the presale of KWTUK tokens, and will invite well-known Korean projects, top KOLs, and the Web3 community to participate, including project ecosystem introductions, industry exchange sessions, and offering the UK power stablecoin NFT whitelist along with RWA Chai.io token discount presales.KWTUK's "three-phase token economic structure" is entirely based on local UK electricity prices: the genesis issuance phase allows participants to mint tokens at a discount below the actual electricity price; the market liquidity phase transitions to free pricing based on market fluctuations in electricity prices; the subsequent mechanism dynamically adjusts through minting and burning, keeping the token price within the range of UK electricity prices, striving to maintain long-term synchronization with the real energy value.Official training materials indicate that this tokenization framework, centered on electricity value, has built a solid value moat for the project, enabling it to maintain stable operations amid fluctuations in energy prices.RootData will participate as a partner in this event and jointly promote the content construction and community interaction for the RWA x stablecoin scenario.
