Odaily reports: The Russian Central Bank has stated that starting July 1, 2027, Russian residents will be prohibited from using self-custodial wallets for crypto asset transactions, or from transferring funds from regulated brokers to self-custodial wallets. Such transactions may only be carried out through licensed brokers or exchanges.

Currently, 13 institutions in Russia are authorized to provide digital currency trading services, including VTB Bank and Sberbank. The Central Bank has also prohibited transfers between licensed exchange accounts held by different individuals—even if both accounts are held by the same person—and has barred withdrawals from exchange accounts to self-custodial wallets.

Russian Deputy Finance Minister Ivan Chebeskov estimates that approximately 20 million Russians hold crypto assets worth 3.7 trillion rubles, or nearly $44 billion. Anatoly Popov, Deputy Chairman of Sberbank, expects that only about 20% of Russia's crypto trading volume will migrate to licensed exchanges. (Bitcoin.com News)

Odaily reports: Mohsen Rezaei, Secretary of Iran's Supreme National Security Council, said on the 18th that Iran's armed forces have formulated response plans for any new "adventurist acts." Rezaei said that day on social media that in recent days, the fanatical rhetoric and repeated threats spread by U.S. and Israeli officials cannot change the reality on the battlefield in the slightest. Facing any possible new "adventurist acts," Iran's armed forces have drawn up response plans whose destructive power will far exceed previous ones. Iran's entirely new operational plan will no longer follow the rules familiar to the other side. (Xinhua News Agency)

Odaily report: According to a U.S. Department of Justice announcement, law enforcement authorities in Ghana and Nigeria arrested 28 people in a joint operation targeting West African fraud networks, involving criminal activities such as cryptocurrency investment fraud. The operation was led by the UK's National Crime Agency (NCA), with participation from Binance, Coinbase, and blockchain analytics firms Chainalysis, Elliptic, and TRM Labs. Private-sector partners collectively identified more than $11 million in funds that could potentially be frozen, though the amount has not yet been confirmed as recovered assets.

Coinbase stated that it assisted in tracking illicit funds, supporting asset freezes, and providing intelligence to investigators, identifying more than 65 victims still being defrauded and helping prevent over $415,000 in potential losses. During the operation, Ghanaian police arrested 19 people and seized 303 electronic devices, while another 9 people were arrested in Nigeria. Additionally, 117 human trafficking victims in Ghana are awaiting repatriation to Nigeria, and participants also provided law enforcement with leads on more than 30 suspected fraud centers. The U.S. Department of Justice said this was the first joint operation of its kind specifically targeting the West African region. (CoinDesk)

Odaily report: Trader Killa posted that Bitcoin's rise is not necessarily because the trend follows logic—sometimes it's precisely because the market defies conventional reasoning. If market movements always followed logic and every fluctuation could be explained rationally, everyone would make money, but the Bitcoin market is not like that. Killa stated that he remains bullish on Bitcoin and holds a long BTC position, and will not close it until the price reaches $126,000.

Odaily reports: The crypto project Cysic has announced that its cross-chain bridge was paused on Saturday after an attacker exploited a processing flaw to mint 10 million CYS tokens without authorization on BNB Smart Chain. Preliminary investigations indicate that the attacker may have gained unauthorized access to the database supporting the bridge.

The unauthorized minting occurred at 12:31:38 UTC, and Cysic blacklisted the receiving address in the token contract at 13:47:52. The address currently still holds approximately 2.8 million CYS, and related transfers have been restricted.

Cysic stated that the incident only involved cross-chain bridge message processing and token minting, and did not affect the mainnet or other operating systems, nor did it result in the theft or unauthorized transfer of existing CYS or other assets in user wallets. Token transfers, swaps, and actual losses are still under review, and the company has engaged security firms and plans to release a follow-up report. (Cointelegraph)

Odaily reports: CITIC Securities released a research report noting that U.S. September CPI came in at 3.7% year-over-year and PPI at 6.3% year-over-year, both exceeding expectations, but the reaction of long-end U.S. Treasury yields quickly faded within 24 hours: after the CPI release on October 14, the 10-year U.S. Treasury yield first spiked about 13bp to 5.325%, then gave back the gains and closed lower; by October 15, after the PPI release, the 10-year yield rose only very slightly by about 2.5bp, the 30-year yield fell directly, and the 10-year yield then quickly dropped back to around 5.048%.

The market's pricing power over inflation is rapidly fading, and the long-end pricing anchor has clearly shifted to the "growth/AI cycle"—the "recession" it is pricing is essentially the tail risk of a downturn in the AI capital expenditure cycle, rather than a traditional demand recession, and it can coexist with stagflation. This is still left-side exploratory pricing and does not yet constitute trend confirmation. In the short term, U.S. equities may continue sector rotation, with capital switching from AI themes to energy, defensive consumer staples, and healthcare, which may benefit from expectations of a Democratic sweep in the midterm elections. Hong Kong stocks may also benefit from a reversal in overseas AI hardware trading, as well as capital allocation driven by Indonesia potentially being removed from the MSCI Emerging Markets Index.

Odaily reports: Crypto analyst Darkfost stated that since late August, small- and mid-cap crypto assets have seen the strongest market cap growth, with the gap between their monthly average and yearly average market cap continuing to widen, and the relevant ratio now reaching 41%. By comparison, Bitcoin's ratio stands at 7%, while large-cap crypto assets are at just 3.5%.

Darkfost noted that this trend is relatively rare, as rallies are typically initiated by Bitcoin first, as was the case in the market performance after the 2023 bear market ended. However, small- and mid-cap assets are more sensitive to market changes, and the current trend could also reverse rapidly.

Odaily: Microsoft (MSFT.O) has withdrawn from a data center partnership project with UK emerging cloud service provider Nscale in Loughton, Essex, UK. The move comes at a critical time as Nscale prepares for its IPO, adding further uncertainty to the startup's listing plans. Reports indicate that Microsoft did not specify the reason for terminating the partnership, but the project had been facing a series of delays. Local authorities have informed Nscale that power supply for the facility is not expected to be available until the 2030s.

Additionally, Nscale's flagship project in Norway is approximately six months behind schedule, with only 6.4 megawatts of its planned 30-megawatt data center capacity currently operational. According to Nscale's IPO filing, approximately 85% of the company's contracts depend on Microsoft and Anthropic. Microsoft had originally planned to become the primary tenant of Nscale's first UK data center in Essex. Microsoft's withdrawal will deal a blow to Nscale. The company is seeking to raise up to $3 billion through its IPO, with a listing potentially as early as this month. (The Daily Telegraph)
