France plans to adjust its crypto tax rules starting in 2027: converting crypto assets into euro-denominated stablecoins could also trigger taxes.
On October 16, France’s National Assembly passed a budget amendment by 38 votes to 37, with 25 abstentions. The amendment would eliminate the tax deferral for such conversions and treat them as taxable disposals. Under the current tax system, the gains may be subject to a flat tax rate of 31.4%.
If the proposal ultimately takes effect, investors who convert crypto assets into euro-denominated stablecoins to hedge or wait for an entry point could als

BTC: The biggest risk is not regulation, but a cryptographic crisis. The threats posed by AI and quantum computing are underestimated. It is predicted that algorithms could crack some early wallets within 1–1.5 years, putting 2 million old coins with lost private keys at risk of creating selling pressure. This view is somewhat cautionary, but I have not sold my core BTC holdings.
ETH: I sold 80%–90% of my position at $3,600–$4,000 and have not bought back in since. The market is being sustained by narratives, and the risk-reward ratio is poor, so I am keeping only a small core position while w

FRANCE JUST VOTED 38–37 TO TAX CRYPTO-TO-STABLECOIN SWAPS AT 31.4% 🚨
On Oct 16, the National Assembly adopted amendment I-3898 from MP Nicolas Sansu to the 2027 budget. Only 100 of 577 MPs took part. It ends the tax deferral when you swap crypto into a MiCA e-money token like USDC or EURC, so the swap itself becomes a taxable gain from Jan 1, 2027. Non-MiCA tokens are out of scope. It's not law yet: the full budget still needs final passage and the Senate can rewrite or kill it.

Is a 500 billion valuation expensive?—Comparing DeepSeek with Zhipu, MiniMax, and NVIDIA
Guys, let’s wrap up with the most central question: Is DeepSeek’s 500 billion valuation expensive?
First, let’s look at its peers. There are currently two publicly listed domestic large-model companies—Zhipu and MiniMax. Zhipu’s market cap has fallen nearly 70% from its peak of over HKD 1 trillion to about HKD 301.8 billion, while MiniMax’s market cap has also fallen back to **. The sharp pullbacks in the share prices of both listed large-model companies show that the secondary market is repricing valuatio

ZEC strategy:
Currently trading in a standard range
Support below is at 1119~1123; if it pulls back and holds, you can open a small long position directly
Resistance above is at 1155~1160
For now, price is within this range; sell high and buy low as it moves back and forth
Key rhythm to remember:
Once it decisively breaks below the 1119 support, support turns directly into resistance; short any subsequent rebound and follow the trend
Conversely, a high-volume break above the 1155~1160 resistance opens up room for short-term bulls; wait for a pullback to add longs and capture further upside

$ERA ’s 22.88% surge is a bull trap: 24h trading volume surged to 87.8M, but the price failed to hold above 0.0751—a classic sign of euphoria near the top. The current Fear and Greed Index is 72 (greed zone), and the funding rate at +0.038% is overheated. Historical comparison: the last time the funding rate exceeded 0.035%, the median pullback within 48 hours was 14%. On-chain data shows the top ten addresses net transferred about 1.2 million tokens to exchanges over the past 6 hours, with selling pressure building in advance. Technically, 0.0591 is both the 24h low and the 4-hour demand zone;

#NEARJumpsNearly10% Protocol Jumps Nearly 10 Percent, Is a New Momentum Wave Beginning?
The cryptocurrency market continues to deliver opportunities for traders who know how to recognize momentum, and NEAR Protocol has attracted attention after a price jump of nearly 10 percent. Such a move can quickly change market sentiment, bring fresh attention to an asset, and encourage traders to look more closely at its price action.
But the most important question is not simply why NEAR is rising. The real question is whether this rally can sustain its strength or whether the market is approaching a sh

Many people looking at RWA only focus on established names, but $DUSK , a privacy settlement project, has been gaining attention recently.
The key is its rolling finality: after a transaction is included in a block, it goes through four stages in sequence—accepted, proven, confirmed, and finalized. Once it reaches Final, settlement is completely irreversible, so there’s no awkward reversal after a trade is completed. That’s exactly the certainty needed for regulated finance and real-asset settlement. The current price is around 0.125, with a 24h range of 0.1137-0.1331 and trading volume of abo

KOSPI Jumps 3.3%: Is South Korea’s Stock Market Ready for a Stronger Recovery?
The South Korean stock market has attracted fresh attention after the KOSPI index jumped 3.3%, highlighting renewed investor interest and the potential for a stronger market recovery. Such a sharp move can reflect improving market sentiment, bargain hunting after previous declines, and changing expectations about the global economic outlook.
But the most important question is whether this rally signals the beginning of a sustained upward trend or simply a temporary rebound.
