Mars Finance reported that on October 9, the United States had reportedly notified Eyal Zamir, Chief of the General Staff of the Israel Defense Forces, that the U.S. military might resume military operations against Iran before the end of this month. During the call, Zamir said that if the United States resumed its strikes, Iran might retaliate against Israel, potentially causing Israel’s election, originally scheduled for October 27, to be postponed.
Trump stated clearly on social media Thursday that the United States would not attack Iran before the November 3 midterm elections. He said that the United States and Iran were engaged in productive negotiations, that the United States would continue maintaining its blockade of Iran, and emphasized that large quantities of oil were currently being transported through the Strait of Hormuz.

White House officials, meanwhile, said that

Mars Finance reports that on October 9, Dragonfly Managing Partner Haseeb Qureshi criticized Ethereum researcher Justin Drake’s proposed “Bunker Mode” as “cryptographic doomsday theory,” arguing that if AI breaks cryptographic signature mechanisms, merely migrating assets to new addresses would not fundamentally solve the problem. If assets in other addresses were stolen and dumped on a massive scale, even if the migrated assets remained temporarily safe, their value could still suffer a severe impact. Qureshi proposed that blockchain networks establish a “cryptographic recovery mode” that would allow users to pre-bind hash-based backup signature schemes to their addresses and enable validators to forcibly activate an asset recovery mechanism when existing cryptographic signatures are compromised. According to Glassnode data, approximately 6.26 million coins currently...

Mars Finance reports that decentralized exchange THORChain has announced the launch of native Zcash swaps. Users can exchange ZEC for assets on other supported blockchains without relying on wrapped tokens or centralized exchanges. The launch follows the protocol’s 3.20 update, which introduced support for Zcash and Monero. The Zcash pool had more than $50,000 in liquidity at the time, and the network had begun processing live ZEC swaps. The pool is currently in a soft-launch phase, with performance being monitored. If vulnerabilities or other issues arise, swaps may be temporarily paused. The pool’s current size can relatively easily support five-figure trades. Larger trades will incur higher slippage and take longer to settle until liquidity grows. When the fee-to-depth ratio is sufficiently high, protocol-owned liquidity will automatically be added to the Zcash pool. This mechanism was introduced with the 3.20 upgrade, allowing the protocol

Mars Finance reports that on October 9, U.S. long-term Treasury yields continued to rise, with market attention shifting from the Federal Reserve’s rate hike path to the term premium. A Federal Reserve Bank of New York model shows that the term premium on 10-year U.S. Treasuries has risen by approximately 40 basis points cumulatively since mid-September to around 0.98%, the highest level since 2014; during the same period, the 10-year Treasury yield rose by approximately 30 basis points. Another model that incorporates economists’ interest rate forecasts shows that the term premium has risen to 1.08%, the highest level since 2010.
The term premium reflects the additional return investors demand for bearing uncertainties related to long-term inflation, fiscal risks, bond supply, and market liquidity. Analysts pointed out that the recent rise in long-term yields may no longer be driven solely by expectations for Federal Reserve policy, but may instead reflect investors demanding higher risk compensation for holding long-term U.S. Treasuries.

Security researcher tanuki42 previously estimated losses of more than $72 million, with the figure still rising. The cause and whether a device vulnerability is involved remain under investigation.
