U.S. nonfarm payrolls rose 165,000 in October, the unemployment rate slipped to 4.1%, and average hourly earnings climbed 0.4% on the month. A firmer labor backdrop keeps Fed and rates risk alive for Bitcoin just as markets were starting to price a softer year-end path.

|
|
Crypto insurer Soter said Standard Chartered’s venture arm and Japan’s SBI joined its latest funding round, lifting total backing to about $66 million including bitcoin and ether. Coming days after the Binance hack and other thefts, the raise signals that mainstream financial institutions see security and insurance capacity as a bottleneck for larger digital-asset adoption.

Bitcoin developer proposes quantum-defense trap that punishes would-be wallet thieves
|
|
Bitcoin Core developer Cory Fields outlined “quantum landmines,” a concept that would require an attacker to post matching collateral before moving vulnerable coins. The idea is still a thought experiment, but it shows how seriously parts of the Bitcoin technical community are beginning to game out post-quantum security trade-offs.

10 Stocks at the Center of AI’s $1 Trillion Boom
AI’s growth story is much bigger than chatbots.
The market was already valued at an estimated $800 billion by late 2025, and continued adoption could push it beyond $1 trillion in the years ahead. That growth will require more data centers, computing power, software, networking and intelligent devices.
But the most obvious AI names may not be the only companies positioned to benefit.
MarketBeat’s free 10 Best AI Stocks to Own in 2026 report identifies ten publicly traded companies helping power the next phase of the AI buildout. Some are established leaders. Others occupy less obvious corners of the expanding AI ecosystem.
🚨JUST IN: 'Anti- Crypto' Elizabeth Warren set to become Senate Banking Committee chair, giving the outspoken crypto critic major influence over financial regulation.

🚨 FED JUST GOT A STRONG REASON TO HIKE RATES.
US jobs data got released, and it surprised everyone.
The US unemployment rate dropped to 4.1%, vs. 4.2% expected.
At the same time, the US economy added 165K jobs in October, 100K higher than expectations.
Now looking at the inflation, it's still running hot and is almost 2x above the Fed's target.
And when inflation is hot and the job market is better, the Fed has more room to hike rates.

Imagine half your country waking up to locked bank accounts, and the President resigning hours later.
That’s Paraguay right now.
The collapse in 6 bullets:
1. Ueno Bank became Paraguay’s top digital app with 3M users, over 60% of adults.
2. The government pumped hundreds of millions in public funds and pensions into it.
3. President Santiago Peña had direct financial ties, and his Central Bank chief was an ex-exec.
4. Regulators uncovered massive insider loans and missing capital, forcing an emergency seizure.
5. Banking apps froze, panic hit the streets, and prosecutors arrested top executives.
6. Facing immediate impeachment over the collapse, President Peña resigned.
And people still think fiat in a bank is safer than Bitcoin.
This is why Satoshi built it. 🟧
