GT BURN NEARS 2 MILLION TOKENS IN Q3 — SUPPLY IS SHRINKING, BUT DEMAND MUST CONFIRM THE NEXT MOVE
GateToken is at an important point in its market cycle. Gate has completed another major quarterly GT burn, the supply story is becoming increasingly deflationary, and the live chart is now testing whether buyers can turn that fundamental improvement into sustained price strength. The bigger question is whether shrinking supply can meet strong enough recurring demand to create a higher valuation over time.

SAMSUNG’S 782.5% PROFIT SURGE: THE AI MEMORY BOOM HAS ENTERED A NEW PHASE
Samsung Electronics has delivered an earnings result that is difficult for semiconductor investors to ignore.
The company’s Q3 operating profit surged 782.5% year over year to 107.4 trillion won, marking the first time Samsung has generated more than 100 trillion won in quarterly operating profit. Even more significant, this result extends the company’s streak to a fourth consecutive record quarter.
That combination matters far more than the percentage alone.

Gate has partnered with Visa to launch a crypto-linked payment card that will be available across more than 40 countries and territories, connecting digital assets held in Gate accounts to Visa's global payment network. The announcement was made on October 8, 2026, and the card is expected to roll out across those markets in the coming period.
The mechanics of the card are straightforward. When a user makes a purchase, eligible digital assets held in their Gate account are automatically converted into fiat currency at the point of sale. That conversion happens in the background, so the user do

$ERA The most unusual point today: up 12.91% over 24h, yet the funding rate plunged to -0.5821%, with the price above the Bollinger middle band while shorts are still paying to hold positions—this “rising price, negative funding” divergence usually indicates forced short squeezing rather than spot buying pressure.
Technical breakdown: MA5=0.07094 remains above MA20=0.065485, so the moving-average structure remains intact, but the current price of 0.0682 has fallen back below MA5, indicating weakening short-term momentum. The MACD histogram at +0.0005368 continues to favor bulls, but the bar i

The Federal Reserve released the minutes of its September 15–16 meeting on October 7, and the document carried a message that the market has spent the days since trying to interpret. The headline is straightforward: all 19 officials supported the quarter-point increase that took the federal funds rate to 3.75%–4.00%, the first hike since 2023. Most participants believed another increase by year-end could be appropriate. Yet the market's reaction since the release suggests that investors are not treating the minutes as a signal that a move is imminent.

🏦 The Fed’s September minutes were hawkish, but could it hold steady in October?
The Fed’s latest meeting minutes sent a clear signal: Most officials believe one more rate hike may still be needed this year, but the market does not seem to be in a hurry.
📊 The probability of an October rate hike is below 20%, with traders more inclined to expect a pause in October and another hike in December.
The real test is still ahead—U.S. CPI is due to be released on October 14.
Can inflation continue to cool? Will a stronger U.S. dollar and higher Treasury yields further pressure BTC and other risk assets?
