ChainCatcher News, U.S. Federal Judge Tanya Chutkan announced on October 18 local time the evidence in the Trump election immunity lawsuit, failing to postpone the announcement until after the November 5 U.S. presidential election.Previously, on July 1, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that Trump enjoys a certain degree of immunity from criminal prosecution in federal cases involving alleged "interference in the 2020 election," but does not have immunity from prosecution for actions taken in a private capacity, and instructed lower courts to reconsider the case to determine which actions qualify as "official acts" that cannot be prosecuted.This ruling indicates that the progress of the case will take time. U.S. media generally believe that Trump is unlikely to face trial before the presidential election in November this year.

ChainCatcher news, QCP Capital's latest report indicates that, influenced by Trump's weekend speech, Bitcoin briefly tested $70,000, but fell over 3,000 points before and after the opening of the U.S. stock market, dropping below $67,000. The recent large-scale transfers by the U.S. government may have negatively impacted the market, exacerbating investor concerns.Compared to Bitcoin, Ethereum's performance has been relatively better. Since Trump's speech, ETH/BTC has risen by 5%. Although Ethereum spot ETFs have seen outflows for the fourth consecutive day, market optimism about its performance is still rising. The volatility premium of ETH relative to BTC has expanded from 4% last week to about 8%, and the market may be becoming immune to the outflow data. When Ethereum ETFs achieve stable daily inflows, it may drive Ethereum prices to break through.

Trump's personal lawyer, Michael Cohen, also confirmed that he privately paid Daniels $130,000.However, Daniels pointed out that she signed the document regarding the so-called "hush money" with Trump's lawyer Cohen shortly before the election, but Trump did not sign it, making it legally invalid.
