Gate’s trending page says the WCTC S9 prize pool is 8M USDT. The official announcement says up to 6M USDT, unlocked dynamically based on the number of valid traders. S8 was the 8M season, so I suspect the header carries the old number. I can’t prove that.

The bigger catch is “up to”. In S8, 56,000 people had registered and only 880K USDT of the pool was unlocked when Gate reported it. That’s about 11% of 8M. I don’t know S8’s final payout, and S9 may fill faster or slower.

What’s confirmed for S9: registration runs until Oct 26, and trading runs Oct 26 to Nov 25. Te

$Mitsubishi Heavy Industries MHI scores POC multi-drone contract.
Mitsubishi Heavy Industries (MHI) has won a contract for proof of concept (POC) for new simultaneous multi-drone control technology, according to the latest monthly tender list released by Japan’s Acquisitions, Technology and Logistics Agency (ATLA).
The list, which covers contracts signed in July, revealed that MHI was awarded ¥2.1 billion (approx. A $19 million) for the study.
That figure is roughly 5 per cent below the proposed budget for a similarly titled research project listed in the Japanese Ministry of Defense’s (MoD) 2026 budget draft pape

‼️$BTC Technical Analysis—Is the $76,000 target worth watching?
I have been sharing this $BTC chart for several days, and Bitcoin is now encountering resistance around $8,300 as expected. The next short-term support level is around 81,200.
On the daily timeframe, BTC is forming a bearish rising wedge, with a smaller rising wedge also developing inside it. Nested patterns are common, so there is no need to panic. 🔻 Key breakdown level: 80,300–80,400. This is the previous swing low and a key level worth watching. If a confirmed breakdown occurs and the daily closing price falls below this zone

#LedgerAttacksAllTracedToCryptoBilis Blockchain analytics firm Bitquery estimates that approximately $93.2 million was stolen from 315 wallets across six blockchain networks. Ledger confirmed that an affected device contained an unauthorized hardware implant, raising concerns that recovery phrases may have been compromised. However, the full attack mechanism remains under investigation.
Ledger stated that all confirmed cases are linked to devices sold through CryptoBilis and that its internal systems and direct sales channels remain unaffected. The company asked the reseller to suspend sales

#STRKUpOver55%in24Hours
STRK’s 55%+ Rally: Quantum-Resistant Ambitions, Rising Leverage, and the Supply Shock Traders Should Watch
A rally of more than 55% in 24 hours is enough to put almost any cryptocurrency on traders’ watchlists. But when it comes to Starknet ($STRK ), I believe the bigger question is not how quickly the price has risen, but whether the project can turn its ambitious technology roadmap into sustainable growth.
For me, STRK presents an interesting combination of innovation, speculation, and upcoming supply pressure. Each deserves attention before making a decision.

10.12 Monday Daily Summary
Alright, summoners, welcome to today’s market battle. BTC came out blazing and pushed all the way forward, directly pressing down on the 84,300 high ground. But pay attention—the bears have started their counterattack! After a team fight, BTC retreated step by step, pulling its defensive line back from 84,300 to 82,300, where it finally stabilized. ETH followed BTC’s pace closely, getting pushed down to the 2,500 defensive tower and is currently recovering under the tower. All our intraday live-trading setups were short positions, and all took profit!

For roughly the fifth time, the chart is approaching the $1.295–$1.318 price range, and this is not good at all. If this critical range is lost, the next support level will be $1.173.

There is no belief in the market.
Last week, we had a relatively small drop to $80k, and the fear on the timeline increased greatly.
We then closed the weekly back above the May high, including securing 4x weekly closes above the 50SMA.
In addition, the 2W candle also closed above.
All within a bullish Weekly Supertrend.
The data is telling us, very clearly, that Bitcoin has reversed and is bullish.
Yet, the market is very much consumed by Fear and PTSD.
What this tells me, at least, is not very many people are positioned in a strong position.
We either have people sidelined, or people that ha
