Renowned trader Killa stated that buyers are absorbing selling pressure during the recent pullback, which resembles the pattern seen in a previous consolidation range, and there is very little support below the current price level. The market order wall shows a strong accumulation of buy orders just above the $80,000 level, and the buyers' conviction is strong; this price level is also an important psychological barrier for Bitcoin.Killa mentioned that if Bitcoin's weekly K-line closes above the previous week's low (around $82,600) this week, it would be a bullish signal, potentially indicating a typical return to the range after a stop-loss hunt. Killa, a quantitative trader focused on BTC, predicted the peak of this bull market in May 2025 and has over 200,000 followers on platform X. In mid-April, he shorted Bitcoin at $74,688 and switched to long during the market-wide decline on June 5.

The State Tax Inspectorate of Lithuania has updated the user reporting program for cryptocurrency service providers, clarifying the reporting scope and operational standards through Order VA-63, aligning national regulations with the EU DAC8 and the OECD Crypto Asset Reporting Framework (CARF). The new regulations require regulated cryptocurrency service providers and local crypto operators to enhance customer due diligence, collect user identity, transaction records, and tax residency information, and record customer identification numbers, transaction logs, and account balances. Entities that have completed registration and reporting obligations in other EU member states are exempt from re-reporting in Lithuania.The comprehensive operational reporting across the EU will commence on January 1, 2026, with data collected by the platform in 2027 to be automatically exchanged by member state tax authorities starting mid-2027. The new regulations do not change Lithuania's capital gains tax rate on virtual assets, but relevant institutions must update customer access processes and backend systems. Starting from March 2, certain transactions involving electronic money tokens (EMT) must additionally obtain payment service authorization, including transferring EMT on behalf of customers and operating custodial wallets for third-party transfers; exchanges between EMT and exchanges between EMT and fiat currency do not automatically fall under payment services.

The XRP Ledger recently fixed a payment system vulnerability that could be traced back to 2015. This vulnerability could allow attackers to bypass the system's calculation limits on token exchange amounts through a specially designed payment transaction, generating and spending large amounts of XRP out of thin air, undermining the mechanism that caps the total supply of XRP at 10 billion.It was disclosed that attackers could create hundreds of accounts, allowing these accounts to post offers to exchange a small amount of tokens for a large amount of XRP, and then execute a transaction simultaneously. Due to a flaw in the software's calculation of the total transaction amount, the seller's account could receive the full XRP, while the buyer's account would need to pay almost nothing. Researchers Cayden Liao and Veria AI reported the vulnerability on September 22, and RippleX subsequently reproduced the attack and confirmed that the generated XRP could be used in subsequent transactions. RippleX stated that there is currently no evidence that this vulnerability has been exploited on any public network. The development team released version 3.4.1 of xrpld on September 25 to fix the vulnerability.

On October 9, reports indicated that the significant increase in storage chip costs has forced Apple to raise prices and suppress demand. Apple has requested some suppliers to reduce the production of recently released iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max components. A journalist verified with an Apple supply chain company, where a representative stated that after Apple provided new shipping guidance, orders for the iPhone 18 Pro decreased, while orders for the iPhone 18 Pro Max increased, resulting in little overall change in order volume.Another supply chain representative mentioned that the rumors are clearly one-sided. Due to strong demand for the iPhone 18 Pro Max, Apple adjusted some iPhone 18 Pro orders to the iPhone 18 Pro Max, with the total not decreasing, which benefits the high-end supply chain for the Pro Max. In September, Apple released the iPhone 18 Pro series, and due to product planning adjustments, the basic model of the iPhone 18 has not yet been launched. The starting prices for the two models released this time are 9,999 yuan and 10,999 yuan, which is an increase compared to the iPhone 17 Pro series.During the initial sales in mid-September, a journalist observed outside the official Apple retail store in Shenzhen that the buyback market for the iPhone 18 Pro was relatively weak, with some scalpers not purchasing, and even the buyback price was lower than the official starting price. Currently, the supply of the iPhone 18 Pro is relatively sufficient, with staff indicating that only the black version of the 512GB model is in stock, while other memory versions have ample supply. The iPhone 18 Pro Max has not yet been made available for purchase offline.
