Trump’s Bitcoin reserve can’t buy Bitcoin without Congress, says Witt
It's a good reminder of how tricky it is to even think about bringing crypto into official government finances. Even if someone wanted to, the system just isn't set up for it yet. It's not like you can just go out and grab some Bitcoin with a presidential decree.

TSMC Confirms Employee Data Leak as Hackers Try to Sell 46,000 Records for Bitcoin
TSMC's confirmed a leak involving 46,000 employee records, reportedly being sold for 3 Bitcoin on underground forums. They say their systems weren't breached, but the data seems tied to a cloud service provider. The records include sensitive info like names and bank details, and TSMC is already notifying affected individuals while working with cybersecurity experts and law enforcement.
This incident echoes broader data security issues, with other Taiwanese firms like EzTravel and Bank SinoPac facing similar breaches recently. Even in the crypto space, exchanges like Bithumb and major firms like Coinbase have reported unauthorized access incidents.

Crypto Market’s Nearly 6% Slide Costs Bulls $1 Billion in a Day
Crypto traders lost $1.23 billion to forced liquidations over the past 24 hours, nearly double the previous day’s total. Bets on higher prices accounted for $1.02 billion of it as the crypto market cap fell 5.75% to $2.33 trillion. Long positions made up 82.7% of the crypto liquidations, Coinglass data shows. Bitcoin (BTC) slipped below $68,000 to test its 200-week average. A weekly close below that line on Sunday could expose holders to a deeper retest. Bitcoin positions accounted for $637.24 million of the total, with longs at 90.8%.
Ether Falls Below $1,900 as Losses Outpace Bitcoin
Hey, so Ether dipped below $1,900 today. It's been a bit of a rough patch, with spot Ether ETFs seeing outflows for the sixth day in a row. The numbers for the most recent day are still coming in, so we don't have the full picture yet, but the trend isn't exactly encouraging right now.
This is happening while Bitcoin has held up a little better, relatively speaking. It's not a huge surprise, given the ETF situation, but it does mean Ether is underperforming its bigger sibling at the moment.

Crypto Hits 'Extreme Fear' as Bitcoin (BTC) Price Loses $70,000
Bitcoin's price has dipped below $70,000, marking a 5% drop in the last 24 hours and pushing the Crypto Fear & Greed Index into “Extreme Fear.” This puts BTC at 45% below its all-time high of $128,198. Liquidations hit $1.31 billion, with over $1 billion coming from long positions, reflecting a tough day for traders.
Institutional interest is waning, too, with Bitcoin ETFs seeing $1.44 billion in net outflows this week, a trend that's been ongoing for almost a month. The resignation of Nvidia's CEO added to the bearish mood, triggering a flash crash across markets.
Despite the gloom, there’s a glimmer of hope. Bitcoin's RSI is nearing 30, suggesting it could be oversold. So, while the sentiment feels heavy, it doesn’t mean we’re locked into a downward spiral just yet.

Crypto Exchange Hacks and What You Shouldn't Conclude From Them
On October 29, in about twenty minutes, $6.3 billion left Binance’s wallets. The largest crypto theft in history, more than four times the Bybit hack of February 2025. The entry point, according to the exchange itself, was an engineer’s computer, infected after a fake job interview. Two days later, Binance announced it had restored 98% of the assets with its own funds; the next day, it resumed withdrawals. Hold on to that last fact. It’s the most important one, and the least talked about. Mt. Gox, 2014. QuadrigaCX, 2019. FTX, 2022. Bybit, 2025. Binance, 2026, to name just the most notorious.
Over 35% of Bitcoin Supply Faces Potential Quantum Risk, New Data Shows
About 7.12 million Bitcoin, or 35.4% of every coin in existence, now has a weak spot. Most owners can fix it in minutes. Satoshi Nakamoto’s coins may never be fixed. Analytics firm Glassnode counted coins whose “public key” already shows on Bitcoin’s public ledger. Think of a public key as a lock anyone can study. Today’s computers cannot pick it. A large enough quantum computer, in theory, could, and then move the coins. Whose Bitcoin is Exposed? Glassnode says 25.8% of supply is exposed because people reused addresses. Exchanges hold 11.6% of supply in exposed addresses.
