    The data proves it: Bitcoin doesn't care about rising bond yields over long-term

    According to CoinDesk, Bitcoin has shown little consistent correlation with government bond yields, with the 90-day correlation between Bitcoin's returns and the U.S. 10-year yields being around -0.18, indicating almost no relationship. Despite a recent rise in bond yields driven by strong U.S. economic data, Bitcoin's performance has not been directly affected by these changes, even as its price reached a record of $126,000 last October. The article notes that bond market volatility, such as a surge in the MOVE Index, can impact Bitcoin's price in the short term, as seen when it pulled back from $87,200 to $83,500. Overall, the data suggests that rising bond yields alone do not necessarily correlate with Bitcoin's price movements, and the cryptocurrency remains broadly uncorrelated with global bond yields.

    A week of AI coding cut a quantum-safe bitcoin transaction estimate from $320 to $66

    According to StarkWare, AI-assisted coding has significantly reduced the estimated GPU cost of preparing a quantum-resistant Bitcoin transaction from about $320 to $66, by making the search process faster. This method, which does not require a Bitcoin network upgrade, is considered an emergency option for moving eligible coins if quantum computers threaten exposed public keys before a broader fix is adopted. However, the $66 figure is an estimate based on tests and has not been demonstrated in another mined transaction, and the method requires direct transmission to miners, which limits its protection to certain scenarios. The improved code also has limitations, as it does not protect coins with already exposed public keys.

    Kalshi says it is not being investigated by the CFTC over trading activity

    Kalshi stated that it has not been contacted by the CFTC and does not believe it is under a formal investigation, countering media reports that suggested otherwise. The company attributes the observed trading patterns, such as clusters of trades in similar amounts, to its liquidity incentive program, which rewards participants for providing liquidity. These patterns led to questions about potential market manipulation, but Kalshi maintains that such activity is common in financial markets and is explained by their incentive schemes. The CFTC has not confirmed whether an investigation is ongoing and had not responded to requests for comment as of the report.

    Inside the FBI’s little-known annual crypto crime gathering

    The FBI has held an annual gathering called the Virtual Asset Technical Exchange for the past nine years, primarily focusing on law enforcement and industry cooperation in addressing crypto-related crime. The event, held in September in San Antonio, includes discussions on illicit activities such as terrorism, fraud, trafficking, and cyber threats, with participation from law enforcement officials, overseas investigators, and blockchain security firms like Chainalysis and TRM Labs. It is described as a low-key, invitation-only symposium aimed at sharing intelligence on threats, attack methods, and successful investigations, rather than a public or commercial crypto event. The symposium has grown to include more industry representatives and emphasizes practical information to combat crypto crimes, especially those linked to sanctioned states and advanced hacking techniques.
