Crypto trader Killa posted that the most ideal trend for Bitcoin (BTC) currently is to continue rising before the U.S. midterm elections, building a bullish narrative and breaking through previous highs, followed by a pullback after the elections similar to historical cycles. However, this pullback may not form a new cycle low but rather establish higher lows.Killa stated that if BTC experiences a decline before the midterm elections, he believes the market is more likely to rebound to around $95,000 after the elections. Previously, nearly $2 billion in long positions had been liquidated, and there are about 3 weeks left until the U.S. midterm elections. The market may currently be experiencing a "maximum pain" scenario: after some market narratives have been broken, BTC rebounds before the elections, then reverses again putting pressure on traders in the opposite direction, ultimately leading the market to re-engage in risk deleveraging.Killa pointed out that in the past 4 U.S. midterm elections, there were declines in 3 of them 1-2 months after the elections, with historical samples showing a probability of about 75%. However, he mentioned that he still holds a 10x long position in BTC, as well as long positions established earlier at $62,600 and $76,400, and has not reduced his positions.

U.S. Treasury Secretary Mnuchin stated that U.S. President Trump is not expected to engage in any military conflict before the midterm elections. The diesel trade with Russia is beneficial for Americans, and we will utilize all legal authorities to conduct diesel transactions with Russia.

According to South Korean media Dailian, the Digital Asset Exchange Alliance (DAXA) has released the "2026 Digital Asset Policy Compilation." Professor Zhao Zaiyu from Hanyang University pointed out that since the ICO ban in 2017, domestic cryptocurrency projects in South Korea have continuously moved their issuance entities and business foundations overseas due to regulatory gaps. The token issuance of Klaytn is handled by a Singaporean entity, and Wemade's WEMIX is also issued by a Singaporean entity. Subsequently, Metabora moved to Dubai, and NeoFin relocated its foundation to Abu Dhabi, with the trend of industry outflow continuing to intensify.Experts indicate that the core obstacles are the regulatory gaps between domestic and foreign issuers and the difficulties in opening corporate bank accounts. They emphasize that "what Korea needs is not looser regulations, but clearer rules," calling for the Digital Asset Basic Law to clarify the licensing standards for issuance, custody, verification, and other business activities, and to establish special procedures for the return of core functions from overseas to the domestic market.

According to the official website of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), on October 9, 2026, the SEC officially sued Linqto's former executives William Sarris and Joseph Endoso, accusing them of committing fraud by selling equity in pre-IPO unicorn companies to retail investors through their online platform.Between 2021 and 2024, Linqto's subsidiary sold over $430 million in special purpose vehicles (SPV) to retail investors. The SEC accused the two of: falsely reporting prices below market value (with almost all being above fair value), falsely claiming that stocks were "sold out," pretending that prices were dynamically set by algorithms (when they were actually manually priced), and publicly claiming compliance while knowing they were violating regulations. Additionally, they were accused of illegally operating an unregistered investment company and selling unregistered securities to non-accredited investors.The SEC seeks to impose an injunction against the two, recover illegal gains and interest, impose civil penalties, and prohibit them from serving as executives or directors of public companies in the future. The case is being investigated by the SEC's San Francisco Regional Office, with assistance from the U.S. Attorney's Office for the Southern District of New York and the FBI.
