According to a report from the Beijing Daily client, the Market Supervision Administration of Haidian District, Beijing, investigated and handled the city's first illegal case of assisting pyramid schemes using blockchain and virtual currency technology, resulting in a technology company being fined and confiscated a total of over 930,000 yuan.The technology company involved is an outsourcing service provider for a certain public blockchain, offering support such as operations, market services, publicity and promotion, exchange docking, and maintenance. This public blockchain launched the "Atomic Plan" and "Hathaway Plan," which are centered around recruiting people for rebates, using the number of recruited individuals as the basis for rebates, and requiring participants to invest funds to obtain membership qualifications. Despite being aware of the pyramid scheme applications associated with this public blockchain, the involved company continued to provide technical operations, external publicity, and maintenance of virtual currency trading channels, facilitating the flow of funds and the spread of activities related to the pyramid scheme.Ultimately, the pyramid scheme activities of this public blockchain were investigated by public security authorities, the organizers were criminally detained, and the involved technology company was administratively punished with a total fine and confiscation of over 930,000 yuan for providing facilitative conditions.

Michael Selig, the Chairman of the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission, stated at the CFTC's inaugural Frontier Forum in Washington that imagining a refrigerator autonomously purchasing groceries with funds from staked ETH, or even issuing its own Memecoin, "is no longer science fiction." He believes that when AI agents can hold assets and execute trades autonomously, regulators must make adjustments.Selig pointed out that the CFTC's regulatory framework is built around executing specific financial functions concerning "identifiable market participants," but autonomous software is raising questions about how these rules apply. He proposed that if AI agents identify trading opportunities and execute trades for users, their developers may need to register, who is responsible when the agent goes out of control, how regulators know for whom the agent is trading, and whether a new type of "Know Your Agent" rule, referred to as KYA, is necessary.Selig also mentioned that AI could provide smaller traders and businesses with risk management capabilities that were previously only available to large institutions, but greater autonomy also brings new risks: agents may react unexpectedly to market conditions, agents using similar models may exhibit correlated trading behaviors, and the speed of autonomous trading could complicate market regulation and risk management. Animoca Brands Chairman Yat Siu recently expressed similar concerns to Cointelegraph; Coinbase launched Agentic Wallets in February, and Binance introduced AI Agent Skills in March, allowing agents to trade within user-defined parameters or provide spot order tools.

Analyst Jukan from Citrini stated on social media that Samsung's current stock performance is lagging behind SK Hynix, seemingly because Samsung's shareholder return plan is either not as generous as initially expected or still carries uncertainty. Against this backdrop, there is a saying circulating in South Korea that Samsung's management is deliberately avoiding bullish statements, involving tax considerations for the company's controlling family member, Chairman Lee Jae-Yong.More specifically, Lee Jae-Yong's mother, Hong Ra-hee, gifted Samsung shares to her son. It has been reported that the gift tax he needs to pay is calculated based on the average closing price during the four-month period around the gift date of November 12, specifically from September 12, 2026, to January 12, 2027. Therefore, the Samsung controlling family has no motivation to drive up the stock price before January of next year.

According to Decrypt, Buzz, a former advisor of the public blockchain Aptos, known by the pseudonym BuzzlamicJihad, left Aptos after the expiration of a one-year contract. Buzz stated that it was a mutual decision and that he has sold his holdings of APT. He mentioned that he believes the project has not made further progress, and some plans have not been realized as expected, which is why he did not renew the contract. APT has dropped 10.7% this month, with a market cap of approximately $607 million.Buzz has begun to promote Meta using the same Meme marketing strategy. His arguments surrounding Aptos have always been based on the project's connection to Facebook, as Aptos was founded by developers of the Libra project. Buzz believes that Meta has strong fundamentals, but retail investors are being overlooked, especially with the recent creation of Class C shares that have no voting rights. He has started posting messages like "META looking good here" and mentioned that he has moved communication from Telegram to WhatsApp. Meta dropped 1.2% on the day, with a market cap of approximately $1.59 trillion, about 2,619 times that of Aptos.

According to the Digital Currency Research Society, on October 27, Beijing Bank released a public tender announcement for the procurement project of firewall equipment for digital currency business in 2026 through the official centralized procurement management system. Along with the previously announced procurement projects for IPS, encryption machines, WAF, SSL, signature devices, etc., the bank has officially launched a centralized upgrade of the full-chain security infrastructure for digital renminbi business, covering core security nodes such as intrusion defense, encrypted transmission, web application protection, and identity signing.In April of this year, Beijing Bank became a newly added operational institution for digital renminbi business and connected to the central bank's digital renminbi system. In August, the central bank added 8 more operational institutions, expanding the total to 30. Previously, several newly added operational institutions, such as Huishang Bank, Hangzhou Bank, and Guangxi Beibu Gulf Bank, had initiated tenders for core digital currency systems worth tens of millions. The report pointed out that Beijing Bank's inclusion of various security devices such as firewalls and encryption machines in centralized procurement is a proactive security layout to adapt to the new features of digital renminbi, such as high-concurrency transactions and programmable smart contracts.

According to TrendForce, Apple's first foldable phone, iPhone Duo, has been available for pre-order for less than a week, and some orders on the official website have already been delayed until January 2027. TrendForce estimates that global shipments of foldable phones will see a slight increase of 0.5% in 2026, with Apple’s first foldable iPhone expected to ship around 5 million units, capturing approximately 24.8% market share in its first year, and Apple's entry will accelerate the redistribution of brand market share.Initial user feedback shows that the split-screen operation and screen experience after unfolding have been positively received, while the black edges of apps, button configuration, and fingerprint unlocking have increased adaptation costs. Reports of screen damage and high repair quotes have shifted the focus to reliability and ownership costs. TrendForce states that the visibility of creases on the iPhone Duo is relatively low, which is related to multi-layer material stress control and nano-texture optical optimization; the droplet-shaped hinge bears dynamic control, and insufficient retreat of the central support can lead to additional contact and stress concentration.Apple has provided replacements for a small number of devices with abnormal inner screens, and subsequent engineering improvements are expected to focus on hinge travel, support height, fitting precision, and assembly tolerances. On the software side, some apps still have black edges and insufficient space utilization, and the large screen has also increased energy consumption management requirements. TrendForce believes that Apple's advantage lies in the integration of chips, systems, and developer ecosystems, with competition shifting from design innovation to multi-tasking efficiency.
