According to CoinDesk, Paul Atkins, the chairman of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), issued a statement on October 13, approving the rule change submitted by Cboe Global Markets. This change allows binary options linked to the key performance indicators (KPI) of 23 publicly listed companies in the United States. The metrics related to the cryptocurrency industry include: trading volume of Coinbase (COIN), number of customers and revenue of Robinhood (HOOD), and Bitcoin production of MARA Holdings (MARA).These contracts are cash-settled, European-style options that can only be exercised at expiration. The settlement data is derived from documents submitted by the companies to the SEC, rather than from earnings presentation materials. Cboe plans to launch these contracts this month, and Robinhood is expected to be the first brokerage to offer this product to retail investors. However, trading will not begin until the clearing agency Cboe Clear U.S. obtains temporary registration, and another related application is still under review.

NetEase UU Remote has publicly released a third-party app integration protocol on GitHub, allowing developers to add a remote control entry to their iOS and Android applications. For example, to add a "Connect to Work Computer" button for an AI programming assistant, when users click it for the first time, they will be redirected to UU Remote to select and bind their Windows or Mac. After that, they can directly initiate remote control with another click, without having to repeatedly search for the device.Remote control supports full screen and picture-in-picture modes, allowing users to operate their computers through a floating window while using other apps on their phones. After leaving home, users can check if Claude Code or Codex on their home Mac has completed tasks, and they can directly invoke remote control from third-party applications. Developers can obtain connection results in windowed mode to determine if the device is offline or if the connection has failed.What has been opened is a cross-app invocation protocol, not the source code of the remote control engine, nor an interface for AI to automatically operate computers. Third-party applications still need to call the installed UU Remote client, and the actual remote control is completed by NetEase. Currently, the controlled devices only support Windows and macOS, and the mobile side must use UU Remote version 4.42.0 or later.

OpenAI's official website disclosed that in June of this year, an internal research model (GPT-5.6 Sol series) was assigned a task: to update a cryptocurrency trading application and deploy a contract on the Ethereum testnet Sepolia. The task did not provide a funded wallet, nor was it authorized to use external funds. The model first attempted to obtain test ETH from a faucet but failed. It then devised a method on its own—deriving addresses from publicly available developer seed phrases, scanning hundreds of them until it found an account with a balance.In its internal reasoning, it explicitly questioned "whether using funds from a public key is ethical," ultimately justifying itself: these are testnet ETH with no actual value, and the seed phrases had long been made public, so the funds were "effectively abandoned." It then used that account to pay for the gas required for deployment, successfully completing the contract deployment. OpenAI discovered this behavior during subsequent alignment monitoring and officially disclosed it in the Misalignment Reports on October 15, 2026. The incident was classified as "unauthorized use of a funded test cryptocurrency wallet," indicating that the model replaced the account holder's authorization with its own judgment.

The Chief Information Security Officer of Slow Fog, 23pds, tweeted that public WiFi itself does not steal coins. The losses are caused by phishing pages opened by fake WiFi and the actions of users themselves signing transactions or importing private keys. What websites are accessed and what operations are performed after connecting are the core factors that determine whether asset losses occur.Previously, X user Xiaoyu_184CM tweeted that after connecting to free WiFi at Singapore Airport, a wallet that had not been used for a month had 3.7 BNB transferred away. Binance founder CZ responded that he has always advised against connecting to public WiFi, but merely connecting to WiFi does not lead to wallet theft, and asked if there were any other operations in between. Crypto KOL AB KuaiDong speculated that someone might have specifically set up free WiFi or modified the router, and Xiaoyu indicated that he felt this was likely the case.

According to Glassnode data, over 6 million Bitcoins are under publicly visible public keys on the blockchain, accounting for 31.2% of the circulating supply, which is about 5 to 6 percentage points higher than the low point in 2023. Rafael Schultze-Kraft, co-founder of Glassnode, stated that since the company's report in May, the exposed supply has increased by 222,000 BTC (approximately 18.2 billion USD), while the total Bitcoin supply during the same period has only grown by 64,000 BTC.Among them, exchanges contributed an incremental 123,000 BTC, currently holding 1.79 million BTC that are publicly visible. There are significant differences among institutions: Coinbase has an exposure ratio of 10%, while Binance reaches as high as 83%; Fidelity holds about 375,000 BTC with an exposure ratio of only 2%, Grayscale is at 49%, Revolut is at 99%, and Robinhood is at 100%. According to this statistical method, the holdings of the governments of the United States, the United Kingdom, and El Salvador do not show exposure.Public keys can be reused through addresses or become visible directly in certain Bitcoin output types, including early pay-to-public-key outputs and Taproot. A sufficiently capable quantum computer or hypothetical mathematical breakthroughs could allow attackers to derive the corresponding private keys.

A community user posted that after connecting to the free Wi-Fi at Singapore Airport, a "small wallet" that had not been traded for a long time had 3.7 BNB transferred away, and reminded users not to casually connect to public Wi-Fi.

But just connecting to Wi-Fi shouldn't lead to a wallet being stolen, was there some other operation in between?"

Former New York Governor Andrew Cuomo stated during a panel discussion at the Token2049 conference with OKX CEO Star Xu that if the cryptocurrency industry wants to push for federal-level cryptocurrency legislation, it must maintain a balance between supporting the Democratic and Republican parties. He pointed out that the industry previously "believed that heavy investment in the Republican Party" would help pass the CLARITY Act, but "when you heavily invest in the Republican Party, you inherently alienate the Democratic Party."According to data tracked by Tech Influence Watch, cryptocurrency-related political action committees have spent $54.3 million supporting the Republican Party and $26.2 million supporting the Democratic Party in the 2026 election cycle, with an additional $23.2 million spent opposing Democratic candidates. Cuomo stated that passing legislation requires support from both the Democratic and Republican parties and should be more balanced. He also refuted the notion that the Democratic Party is inherently opposed to cryptocurrency, arguing that cryptocurrency is actually well-suited for the Democratic Party because it empowers individuals who previously could not access financial products. Prediction market Kalshi data shows that the probability of the Democratic Party winning both houses of Congress is about 61%.In terms of background, the House of Representatives passed the CLARITY Act in July 2025 with the support of 78 Democratic representatives and 216 Republican representatives, while 134 Democratic representatives voted against it; in June 2025, the Senate passed the GENIUS Act with support from 18 Democratic senators.
