Theo báo cáo của Reuters được trích dẫn bởi Phượng Hoàng Net, Bộ trưởng Các vấn đề Châu Âu của Pháp, Benjamin Haddad, đã tuyên bố vào thứ Ba rằng Liên minh Châu Âu nên sử dụng số tiền phạt hàng tỷ euro mà Google phải chịu để giảm đóng góp của các quốc gia thành viên vào ngân sách của EU. Haddad cho biết trong một cuộc phỏng vấn với đài truyền hình Pháp: Đây là một nguồn thu mới của EU, với số tiền lên tới 4.6 tỷ euro, số tiền này nên được sử dụng để tự động giảm đóng góp của tất cả các quốc gia thành viên.Vào tháng 7 năm nay, Google đã bị phạt tổng cộng 890 triệu euro vì vi phạm các quy định của EU nhằm kiềm chế quyền lực của các công ty công nghệ lớn, tương đương khoảng 1.01 tỷ USD. Số tiền phạt gần đây đã đưa tổng số tiền phạt mà EU áp dụng đối với Google vì hành vi chống cạnh tranh trong gần hai thập kỷ qua lên tới 10.38 tỷ euro. Các quốc gia EU đang đàm phán về ngân sách từ năm 2028 đến 2034, Ủy ban Châu Âu đề xuất quy mô ngân sách đạt 20.000 tỷ euro, chiếm 1.26% tổng thu nhập quốc dân của EU, trong đó khoảng 168 tỷ euro sẽ được sử dụng để trả nợ cho quỹ phục hồi sau đại dịch.

According to a report by Politico, a document submitted by the European Commission to member states and the European Parliament shows that the EU is assessing the possibility of incorporating the cryptocurrency industry into a unified tax system to find new sources of fiscal revenue for the 2028-2034 budget cycle.The document estimates that if a tax rate of 0.1% is applied to cryptocurrency transaction volumes, it could bring in about 3 billion to 4 billion euros in revenue for the EU each year; if capital gains from cryptocurrencies are taxed, it is expected to increase fiscal revenue by about 1 billion to 2.4 billion euros annually.However, the European Commission also pointed out that due to the still inadequate data related to the cryptocurrency industry, there is significant uncertainty in the current revenue forecasts, and the actual results may differ from the estimates.The relevant proposal is still in the evaluation stage, and to be formally implemented, it requires unanimous approval from all 27 EU member states. If progress goes smoothly, this will become one of the most important discussions on unified tax policy for the cryptocurrency industry in the EU.

The Bitcoin TAP protocol ecological project BIT (@dmt_bit_) has released a new roadmap, announcing a focus on the narrative of "Bitcoin Security Budget Layer," with tokens being directly issued to Bitcoin miners every block as a new source of miner subsidies.The BIT team disclosed that currently only the $NAT token enjoys the miner subsidy mechanism under the TAP protocol, and this mechanism is hardcoded in the protocol's source code (effective only for the dmt-nat token), making it unavailable for other DMT projects. The TAP protocol has also not publicly disclosed any third-party security audits to date.BIT has submitted a code upgrade proposal to TAP, hoping to open this mechanism for use by all DMT tokens, but it was rejected by the TAP officials.According to the roadmap, BIT will next develop a new protocol based on a TAP fork—any DMT token deployment party can customize the token issuance rules and miner distribution methods (including distribution by mining pool weight, independent miner prize accumulation, mixed distribution, etc.) through a single inscription, eliminating any hardcoded privileges for projects. A third-party security audit will be completed before the mainnet launch of the new protocol. $BIT will serve as the native token of the new protocol, and the ecological development of the protocol will continue to empower $BIT.

Aave Labs announced the security framework for Aave V4, proposing a "security-first" development model that embeds security verification during the architectural design phase, rather than only conducting a final audit before launch.This security plan has been ongoing for about a year, with approximately 345 days of security reviews completed, funded by a $1.5 million security budget approved by the Aave DAO. It is reported that the V4 security process combines multiple auditing methods, including formal verification, manual audits, invariant testing, fuzzing, and public security competitions. Future protocol development will continue to adopt five long-term security measures, including introducing formal verification early in development, implementing multi-layer security auditing methods, continuous validation mechanisms, a long-term bug bounty program, and utilizing AI-assisted smart contract security scanning.

Fluid is currently discussing a governance proposal submitted by Instadapp's Chief Operating Officer DMH on February 23. The proposal suggests transferring all intellectual property of the protocol (including smart contract code, front-end interface, domain names, and trademarks) to a non-profit foundation in the Cayman Islands, and applying for a monthly DAO allocation of $250,000 (approximately $3 million per year) to support engineering, security, and business operations.The foundation will have no actual owners and will be operated by custodians and directors, with FLUID token holders retaining ultimate control through governance voting, including the ability to vote to dissolve the foundation in extreme cases. Fluid currently has a TVL of over $1.2 billion, with approximately $1.1 million in protocol revenue in January. If the proposal is approved, the monthly allocation would represent about 16% of its highest historical monthly revenue. The legal work for the transfer of intellectual property is expected to be completed by mid-2026.

According to CoinDesk, India's federal budget for the fiscal year 2026-27 maintains the existing 30% cryptocurrency capital gains tax and 1% withholding tax, disappointing industry groups that had sought tax reductions. The government did not adjust the tax rates but proposed new penalties for entities that fail to properly report cryptocurrency transactions under Section 509 of the Income Tax Act starting from April 1, 2026.Failure to submit the required reports will incur a daily fine of 200 rupees (approximately $2.2) until the non-compliance ends. If the submitted information is incorrect, or if errors are not corrected after being discovered, a fixed penalty of 50,000 rupees (approximately $545) will be imposed. Officials stated that this move aims to strengthen compliance, but market participants warn that it will continue to create friction for traders.

ChainCatcher news, according to informed sources, Canada is in discussions regarding stablecoin regulatory rules and may announce a significant update in the federal budget to be released next week. These sources indicate that government officials have been in deep discussions with regulators and industry participants for weeks.It is reported that Canadian Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland will address this topic in the budget documents to be released on November 4. In July of this year, the United States passed the "Genius Act," which authorizes financial regulators to oversee stablecoin issuers and their reserve management practices, and requires issuers to comply with anti-money laundering and sanctions evasion regulations. This new law has been welcomed by many in the crypto industry. However, in Canada, due to the lack of relevant legislation, regulators have indicated that stablecoins may constitute securities or derivatives. Some experts believe they should be regulated as payment instruments and subjected to strict oversight.

ChainCatcher news, according to Decrypt, the Philippine Senate is reviewing Bill No. 1330, which was introduced by Senator Paolo Benigno "Bam" Aquino IV at the end of August. The bill plans to allocate approximately $8.6 million to put the national budget records on the blockchain, aiming to enhance government spending transparency and curb corruption.The backdrop of this move is the public's strong concern over alleged irregularities in approximately $9.2 billion infrastructure projects. However, several legal experts have expressed concerns about this. Former Philippine Attorney General Florin Hilbay warned that merely using blockchain technology does not automatically promote transparency or prevent corruption, and may instead simplify it to a "marketing tool." Technology law expert Russell Geronimo pointed out that the issue lies not in the lack of an immutable ledger, but in the weak mechanisms for procurement oversight, auditing, and whistleblower protection.The Philippine Fintech Lawyers Association cautioned that private entities controlling blockchain infrastructure could lead to the de facto privatization of public data, recommending that the government retain ownership and control over budget data and adopt open-source protocols to prevent vendor lock-in and monopolies.

ChainCatcher news, according to CoinDesk Japan, the Financial Services Agency (FSA) of Japan has announced its budget, organization, and staffing requirements for the fiscal year 2026.

ChainCatcher news, Philippine Senator Bam Aquino stated at the Manila Tech Summit that he suggested recording national budget transactions on the blockchain so that citizens can trace the flow of every fund. He said, "No one would want to put transactions on a chain that everyone can track, but we want to try." No formal bill has been submitted yet.Once implemented, the plan will be based on the blockchain platform already launched by the Philippine Department of Budget and Management (DBM), which has taken the lead in Asia by putting some financial documents on-chain. The platform is technically supported by the local blockchain infrastructure company BayaniChain, whose CEO Paul Soliman pointed out that while blockchain is not a "magic bullet" against corruption, it can enhance accountability through immutable records. The existing DBM system utilizes the Polygon PoS network as a layer for transparency and consensus, allowing relevant budget documents such as Special Allotment Release Orders (SARO) and Notices of Cash Allocation (NCA) to be publicly verified.

ChainCatcher news, Swiss bank strategist Ipek Ozkardeskaya stated in a report that the trend of U.S. Treasury yields will depend on two factors. The first factor is the fiscal choices made by the U.S.: whether the budget is sustainable and whether there is any long-term plan to control debt. The second factor is the behavior of global investors: whether global investors are still willing to finance the U.S. deficit, especially in light of deteriorating geopolitical relations, waning enthusiasm for the dollar, and declining confidence in U.S. Treasuries as a safe-haven asset, all of which have also weakened market confidence.
