According to Reuters, earlier this month, the U.S. Department of Justice announced a deferred prosecution agreement with "Bitcoin Jesus" Roger Ver, under which his fraud and tax evasion charges will be dismissed in exchange for a payment of up to $49.9 million in fines.Roger Ver, one of the earliest Bitcoin evangelists, bought a large amount of Bitcoin in 2011 for less than $3 million. In February 2014, to avoid high tax burdens, he acquired citizenship in the Caribbean nation of Saint Kitts and Nevis and renounced his U.S. citizenship the following month. At that time, he and his companies held at least 131,000 Bitcoins, valued at over $70 million based on the price at that time. He believed that by changing his nationality, he could put an end to the high tax burden in the U.S.However, the U.S.'s stringent "exit tax" completely thwarted his plans. According to U.S. tax law, eligible expatriates must treat their global assets as if they were "sold the day before expatriation" and pay capital gains tax. Although Ver reported and paid $1.03 million in taxes, he not only failed to report his personal holdings of Bitcoin but also severely undervalued his company's assets. Ten years later, the IRS confirmed his fraudulent tax evasion (which is not subject to the statute of limitations), ultimately forcing him to pay back up to $49.9 million in taxes, fines, and interest, which is 48 times the amount he reported paying in taxes that year.

According to a report by ZDNet Korea on October 15, Samsung Electronics has lowered its production plan for mid-range and low-end smartphones in the fourth quarter. The reasons include rising prices of memory chips and disruptions in the supply of glass fiber used in PCB raw materials CCL. Japan's Nitto Denko is shifting more production capacity towards T-glass for AI semiconductors, reducing the output of E-glass for smartphone PCBs, leading to supply shortages and price increases. E-glass is used in semi-cured sheets for smartphone motherboards HDI and RFPCB.The report states that after the rise in storage prices increased manufacturing costs, Samsung reduced orders for related components. Models like the Galaxy A have lower profitability, making it difficult to significantly increase production. This year, the prices of basic mid-range models have risen by more than 100,000 Korean Won compared to the previous generation. The outlook for component orders communicated to partners for the fourth quarter corresponds to an annual smartphone shipment volume of just over 230 million units, which is below the component industry's expectation of 240 million units and represents a decrease of 20% to 30% compared to before the Mid-Autumn Festival holiday. Plans for the mobile business next year have not been shared with partners as in previous years.The monthly production outlook for the fourth quarter in mid-September was 14.3 million units in October, 9.5 million units in November, and 7.6 million units in December, totaling 31.4 million units. This was adjusted at the beginning of this month to 9.9 million units in October, 7.6 million units in November, and 6.7 million units in December, totaling 24.2 million units, a reduction of 23%. While the production of mid-range and low-end models has been lowered, the shipment plans for flagship models like the Galaxy S27 at the beginning of next year remain at a high level, and the shipment volume for foldable phones is also planned to increase. The MX and Network divisions reported a loss of 735 billion Korean Won in the second quarter, with the securities industry projecting an annual loss of 400 billion Korean Won.

The blockchain project Tempo released a report indicating that the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) plans to adjust accounting rules for stablecoins, allowing eligible tokens to be classified as cash equivalents on company balance sheets, or reducing accounting barriers for enterprises adopting stablecoins.Under current accounting practices, stablecoins, even if fully backed by U.S. dollars, may not be counted as cash reserves reported by the company, thereby affecting liquidity ratios and loan covenants. The proposed rules allow companies to use stablecoins for payments and settlements but require them to have direct redemption rights with the issuer. Purchasing USDC through exchanges may not necessarily meet the criteria for classification as cash equivalents.In its 2025 annual report, Coinbase classified USDC and other payment-type stablecoins as cash equivalents, based on its redemption arrangement with Circle. The public comment period for the FASB proposed rules will continue until November 19, after which the board will review feedback and determine the final accounting changes and effective date. At the time of this proposal's release, the market size for U.S. dollar stablecoins had exceeded $300 billion.
