Coinbase published an article introducing its user asset protection mechanism and stated that it has not been affected by the previous security incident involving Binance's hot wallet. Currently, the platform's system and user funds remain unaffected.Coinbase stated that over 99% of user assets are stored in cold wallets, with hot wallets only retaining a small amount of funds to meet users' daily withdrawal and usage needs, dynamically adjusting the balance based on deposit and withdrawal demands. The assets in its institutional custody vaults are all stored in cold storage and are independently isolated on-chain.In terms of fund transfer security, Coinbase employs distributed key protection, withdrawal limits, abnormal activity monitoring, and emergency stop mechanisms. Cold wallet private keys are split and stored, and the signing process does not fully reconstruct them; the key signing service in the hot wallet production environment does not allow single-person independent access. If abnormal transactions or a surge in withdrawal amounts are detected, the system will trigger an investigation and limit, and if necessary, can pause part or all fund transfers by shutting down the signing key.Coinbase also stated that user assets are always held by the users, and the platform holds assets on a 1:1 basis, without lending or misappropriating them without user instructions. As of September 30, 2026, the asset scale on the Coinbase platform reached $377 billion, holding $8.6 billion in cash and cash equivalents, and $2.2 billion in investment cryptocurrencies. The company stated that as AI capabilities develop and change the security risk landscape, it will continue to increase investment in security technology.

According to a case published by the People's Court of Fusui County, Guangxi, in 2020, a couple in their seventies, referred by an acquaintance, participated in an overseas virtual currency mining machine financial management project, initially investing 4,200 yuan and successfully recovering the principal, followed by additional investments of over 60,000 yuan.In December 2020, the involved platform was shut down, and the funds could not be withdrawn. In early 2026, the couple sued the investment introducer and the actual operator, demanding the return of all investment funds and interest.The court found that the virtual currency investment behavior involved violated relevant financial regulatory provisions and contravened public order and good morals, rendering the entrusted financial management contract invalid. The investment losses primarily stemmed from the illegality of virtual currency trading itself and platform risks, rather than being directly caused by the actions of the trustee. Based on this, the court dismissed the plaintiff's lawsuit, and the second instance upheld the original judgment, which has now taken effect.

According to Wall Street News, the Democratic Party achieved a significant victory in the U.S. midterm elections, with several candidates who clearly opposed the expansion of data centers elected as governors, raising concerns in the market about a slowdown in AI infrastructure investment in the U.S. Asian chip stocks were under pressure on Wednesday, with companies like Samsung Electronics and SK Hynix facing risks that demand for server DRAM and high bandwidth memory (HBM) could be affected.The opposition to data centers mainly focuses on issues such as noise, water consumption, energy consumption, and increased electricity bills for residents. The market is concerned that local governments may tighten project approvals under the pretext of power supply, environmental protection, and AI safety, leading to delays in the construction of new data centers. However, analysts believe that regulation may not directly lead to a shrinkage in investment scale, and tech companies may also turn to building their own power and supporting infrastructure.For South Korean companies, the election results have varying impacts. The Democratic Party's control of Congress may counterbalance the Trump administration's efforts to cut subsidies from the CHIPS and Science Act, benefiting companies like Samsung that invest in the U.S.; the clean energy tax credit policy is also expected to be restored, potentially benefiting solar companies like Hanwha Solutions. Meanwhile, significant easing of automotive tariffs is unlikely, while the Korea-U.S. shipbuilding cooperation framework is expected to continue.
