Well-known trader Killa predicts BTC will form a weekly bottom around the U.S. midterm elections, outlining two scenarios: 1) It bottoms early and rebounds to around 80k, potentially testing 95k; 2) It first rises to 94–95k, then sells off and de-risks after the midterms. He emphasizes watching price structure before the election: an early bottom would be bullish, while a rally followed by weakness would signal renewed de-risking. History is not a guaranteed guide, and markets are changing rapidly.

Mars Finance reports that European Central Bank President Christine Lagarde said the eurozone’s 3.8% inflation rate in September mainly reflected high energy costs, which the ECB expects to ease next year. She noted that the energy shock is expected to keep eurozone inflation above the central bank’s target through the first half of 2027, but that a cautious policy response remains appropriate for now. She made these remarks on Saturday during the International Monetary Fund’s annual meetings.
Lagarde also said the ECB is designing a digital euro. She said that in the retail payments sector, the ECB is preparing to complement cash with a digital form by launching a digital euro for everyday payments. The digital euro will further spur innovation and competition in retail payments, ensure the continued coexistence of public and private solutions, and thereby support Europe’s strategic autonomy in payments.
Cointelegraph previously reported on September 21 that the ECB had launched Pont

Musk said on X that the new “flying” Roadster will be able to autonomously perform multiple stunts and perceive its surroundings, and that he plans to build a loop track at the Texas headquarters for testing that’s crazier than Hot Wheels. Someone said the Roadster is controlled by two computers and uses steer-by-wire, brake-by-wire, and throttle-by-wire systems, and Musk confirmed that this is true.

Mars Finance News, Oct. 17 — Tom Lee, chairman of Ethereum treasury company BitMine, said in an interview with CNBC yesterday that crypto, chip stocks, and neocloud companies would be “coiled springs” if fundamentals remain stable. They have all “pulled back to support levels,” and Lee believes that when fundamentals remain stable while the market turns fearful, “it actually creates a pretty good risk-reward setup.”

DeepSeek V4.1 Flash has been updated to V4.1-Flash-1017. The models on the official website, app, and API have all been upgraded, with the new model showing significant improvements across various benchmarks.

Mars Finance reports that European Central Bank President Christine Lagarde said the bond market sell-off had pushed up borrowing costs in the euro area, weighing on economic growth and ultimately curbing inflation. She noted that tighter financing conditions and rising long-term interest rates would slow economic growth and weaken the pass-through effect on prices.

DeepSeek upgraded V4.1 Flash to 1017, with the weights open-sourced under the MIT license and the web, app, and API updated in sync. DeepSWEv1.1 achieved a 77.0% pass rate, surpassing Opus5’s 74.0%; Terminal-Bench4.0 rose to 42.3%, still below Opus5’s 51.8%. The new version strengthens “wishful programming” and self-feedback learning, showcasing a 3D model of the Palace Museum, a racing game, and Portal 2 in Godot. For the first time, Search/Fetch APIs are available to developers. Successful requests cost 5 yuan per thousand, and Search requests triggered by Claude Code/Codex are free for the first two weeks.

Mars Finance reports that, according to the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC), Aiden Pleterski, who calls himself the “Crypto King,” is on trial at the Ontario Superior Court of Justice in Toronto. A senior forensic accountant with the Ontario Securities Commission testified that investors put $36.3 million into his business between 2020 and 2022, and that he used nearly half of it for personal expenses. These included about $5.6 million on luxury cars, $4.9 million in credit card bills, $870,000 on travel and private planes, $598,000 on security, and nearly $3.7 million transferred to his parents. He also paid investors about $16.1 million in “returns.”
The accountant said investor funds were never transferred to FXChoice, the trading platform named in the contracts, and that only about $113,000 went to other foreign exchange and cryptocurrency platforms. Prosecutors have accused him of…

Jensen Huang said in London that Nvidia may suspend chip supplies if customers develop unsafe AI, but would communicate with them first. The company provides general-purpose technology and has limited visibility into how it is used. Over the next five years, Nvidia will provide the UK with $250 million worth of computing resources for AI safety research, with a focus on areas including agent safety testing. Huang emphasized integrating safety constraints and monitoring into AI systems and advancing safety alongside capabilities. Regulation could affect chip demand: restrictions on training or higher costs could dampen purchases, while stronger safety research could help enable more reliable deployment.

IT Tech notes that the share of exchange inflows from BTC held for 6–12 months over the past 30 days was just 4.4%, down from a peak of 40.4% in mid-June. Monthly transfer volumes ranged from 143,700 to 216,500 BTC, while the inflow ratio continued to decline: 40.4% in mid-June, 30.9% in mid-July, 9.8% in mid-August, 3.7% in mid-September, and 4.4% in mid-October. Buyers at higher levels have nearly stopped selling, easing price pressure. However, the market still needs new buyers to drive prices higher, and upward momentum has yet to clearly emerge.

Court records show that, after receiving valid legal requests, Telegram provided U.S. authorities with private data on certain users, including phone numbers, user IDs, display names, and the IP addresses and timestamps of their last logins. Telegram described the disclosures as voluntary and denied being subject to U.S. jurisdiction. It did not disclose chat or contact information. Since September 2024, a policy change has allowed Telegram to disclose IP addresses and phone numbers when criminal activity is confirmed. Throughout 2024, Telegram received approximately 900 U.S. law enforcement requests involving 2,253 users.

In under 30 minutes, Claude traced and reproduced a set of numbers the NSA provided to the government. They came from the legacy C random number generator lrand48, were associated with 1997/1998 timestamps, and yielded an exact match for the published seed at candidate 1842 in the P-256 sequence. This discovery significantly lowers the likelihood of a hidden backdoor, and users of NIST curves don’t need to make any changes. Bitcoin’s secp256k1 is unaffected, and the $36,864 bounty will be donated to Let’s Encrypt, part of ISRG.

Spot gold has fallen about 27% from its peak earlier this year, while silver is down more than 50%, but physical supply pressures remain. The World Gold Council says central banks bought 288.9 tonnes of gold in Q2 2026, up 62% year over year and a record for the period. The Silver Institute forecasts a silver supply deficit of 46.3 million ounces in 2026, with limited growth in mine output. On the demand side, lower silver use in solar panels may be partly offset by rising demand from data centers, electric vehicles, and power grid upgrades. Mine development takes a long time, so new supply cannot respond quickly. The pullback is largely due to speculative positions being unwound, not a complete easing of physical supply-demand imbalances. The U.S. fiscal deficit and diversification of central bank reserves may continue to support gold, but trade policy, weaker industrial demand, and the release of production capacity will still affect the market.
