Tether CEO casts the stablecoin giant as Asimov’s Foundation at Plan ₿ Forum
USDT Tether
CoinGecko News
Original source text
Paolo Ardoino pitched open-source infrastructure as a hedge against civilizational decline, backed by a reported $1.5 billion quarterly profit

Tether CEO Paolo Ardoino walked onto the Plan ₿ Forum stage in Lugano and compared his company to the Foundation from Isaac Asimov’s science fiction. That is the outfit built to carry knowledge through a galactic dark age.

His keynote was titled “Tether – A Psychohistory Implementation.” It borrowed Asimov’s idea of a predictive science of society. In Ardoino’s telling, decline cannot be stopped. The dark stretch that follows, however, can be shortened if open, unstoppable infrastructure is built in advance.

The seed vault, funded by the Empire
Ardoino framed Tether as a seed of light meant to survive whatever comes next. The concrete version of that pitch is an open-source technology plan aimed at widening financial inclusion and helping communities become more self-reliant.

ZeroHedge, which covered the speech, pointed out the irony. The money funding this seed, it noted, comes from the Empire’s own debt, plus a growing pile of Swiss gold.

Ardoino stressed that Tether wants to be more than a stablecoin issuer. He pointed to open-source protocols, self-custodial wallets, and community-built tools designed to cut dependence on centralized finance.

He also highlighted QVAC, Tether’s local AI platform. It is designed to run intelligence directly on a user’s device instead of in a distant data center.

Ardoino also referenced Tether’s ongoing push to expand USDT in emerging markets.

Lugano doubles down
The forum ran October 23-24, 2026, and drew more than 4,600 attendees. Sessions covered Bitcoin adoption, decentralized technology, AI, and stablecoin payments.

One topic stood out for its ambition: integrating Bitcoin into pensions.

Tether and the City of Lugano also reinforced their partnership with a 2026 memorandum. The agreement extends their collaboration to 2030 and recommits both sides to infrastructure, education, and applied research.

Merchants in Lugano are starting to accept Bitcoin payments. Municipalities are exploring Bitcoin for treasury allocations, and corporate treasury discussions featured at the event as well.

A very profitable Foundation
The company reported a net operating profit of $1.5 billion for Q3 2026. It also reported excess reserves of nearly $8 billion. Those figures come from Tether’s own reporting.

Those numbers explain how a stablecoin issuer can afford to fund AI platforms, wallets, open-source protocols, and multi-year city partnerships at the same time.

What this means
For the crypto market, the speech confirms a strategic shift that Tether has been signaling for a while. The company wants to be seen as an infrastructure builder, not merely the issuer of USDT.

There is an obvious tension to watch. Tether’s pitch is decentralization and independence from central points of failure. Yet Tether itself is a centralized company holding a large reserve and issuing a token that millions rely on.

With the partnership now running to 2030, the city offers a long test of whether merchant Bitcoin payments and municipal treasury experiments can move beyond pilot status. Pension integration, if it ever advances past forum discussions, would be a far bigger signal than a café taking sats.

QVAC deserves attention as a sign of where Tether is placing bets. A stablecoin company building local AI looks odd on paper. Within Ardoino’s framework, it fits: the goal is tools that keep working even when centralized services do not.

Tether freezes $4.5 million USDT after Mercado Bitcoin hack in Brazil
USDT Tether
CoinGecko News
Original source text
Tether has frozen over $4.5 million in USDT following a security breach targeting Mercado Bitcoin, Brazil’s largest cryptocurrency exchange. The freeze came after reports surfaced of more than $40 million in suspicious token transfers on the platform. In response to the incident, Mercado Bitcoin paused all deposits and withdrawals as it launched an investigation.

Details of the Security BreachMercado Bitcoin reported that it detected the compromise of one of its systems during the early hours of November 2. The company stated it acted swiftly to contain the incident and emphasized that no customer funds had been lost and no user data was leaked. The exchange assured clients that their assets remained secure, though as a precaution, trading operations were temporarily suspended.

Tether Chief Executive Paolo Ardoino acknowledged the freeze in a post on X, but did not disclose wallet addresses involved nor indicate whether the frozen USDT had been recovered by the exchange. No evidence was presented showing that blocked tokens were returned to Mercado Bitcoin.

Mercado Bitcoin indicated that it contained the security incident quickly, with no damage to clients and no leak of user data. The company paused deposits and withdrawals as a protective measure, aiming to safeguard customer funds and maintain operational integrity.

Blockchain security firm Hypernative flagged irregular token movements across multiple networks during the breach, according to Brazilian publication BitNotícias. Although Hypernative estimated a total of $40 million in suspicious transfers, the actual amount affected remains unverified.

Suspicious transactions were identified on at least 10 blockchains, including Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana, Tron, Polygon, and Avalanche. Initial abnormalities were detected at approximately 02:15 UTC, followed by several large transactions between 06:19 and 06:53 UTC. Hypernative traced roughly 2,852 ETH, 106 BTC, and 10,700 SOL among the assets moved, but expressed uncertainty about the exact ownership of the wallets involved.

Address Disclosure and Ongoing EffortsMercado Bitcoin published a list of blockchain addresses linked to the incident, spanning EVM-compatible networks, Bitcoin, Solana, Stellar, and Tron. This step aimed to assist investigators and third parties in tracking the movement of compromised assets. The company did not provide specific loss figures for each address and noted that some details, including the relationship of specific USDT holdings to the freeze, were unavailable.

While Tether is able to freeze USDT associated with suspicious activities, the company cannot return blocked tokens directly to victims. Earlier this year, Tether reported collaborating with authorities on similar actions, including the freezing of $344 million USDT tied to illicit activities on two addresses.

Tether stated that it has worked with more than 340 law enforcement agencies across 65 countries, supporting over 1,200 investigations involving suspicious transactions. These collaborations highlight the increasing role of stablecoin issuers in responding to security incidents in the crypto sector.

Tether has demonstrated the ability to freeze tokens linked to compromised wallets, but clarified that the authority to move or return these tokens rests outside its purview and is typically managed by law enforcement agencies or the courts.

Market participants seeking to monitor critical movements of USDT following hacks on exchanges such as Mercado Bitcoin can benefit from real-time alerts and transaction tracking. CryptoAppsy provides timely notifications tailored to specific tokens like USDT, enabling users to react swiftly by following live data as new developments unfold in response to security incidents.

Mercado Bitcoin confirmed its team is working closely with Brazilian authorities while monitoring the affected tokens. So far, no information has emerged regarding any recovery or return of the frozen USDT. The total scope of assets involved in the security breach remains under review.

Mercado Bitcoin confirms $46 million hack, stablecoin issuers freeze funds
USDT Tether
CoinGecko News
Original source text
Mercado Bitcoin, recognized as one of Brazil’s largest cryptocurrency exchanges, reported a security breach resulting in over $46 million siphoned from its wallets on Monday. Despite the company’s immediate suspension of deposits and withdrawals, cryptocurrency addresses linked to the incident continued to process transactions for several hours following the announcement.

Details of the AttackCybersecurity firms indicated the perpetrators conducted the theft through conventional transfers rather than exploiting vulnerabilities in smart contracts. Analysts identified that the attackers methodically targeted eight less prominent blockchains, including Base, Optimism, and Arbitrum, over a four-hour window before moving on to Mercado Bitcoin’s main hot wallets.

Dickson Wu, senior security engineer at Certik, detailed in his post-incident analysis that the attackers extracted small amounts of Ether (ETH) from 27,160 different addresses, further complicating the trail of stolen funds. Wu emphasized the attackers’ capacity to move assets directly from customer deposit addresses linked to Mercado Bitcoin.

So whoever did this can also move money out of MB’s customer deposit addresses, highlighting a broader vulnerability within Mercado Bitcoin’s infrastructure, according to Certik’s Dickson Wu.

Following the company’s disclosure and operational suspension, digital assets continued to flow out of compromised addresses, and thousands of minor ETH transfers ultimately converged into a single account.

Mini dictionary: Certik is a blockchain security firm specializing in auditing smart contracts and investigating crypto-related security incidents.

Response and InvestigationA Mercado Bitcoin spokesperson stated that customers had not incurred financial losses and that personal data remained secure. However, the company did not address the ongoing asset transfers after the public announcement. If customer data were to be compromised, current Brazilian regulations would require Mercado Bitcoin to alert the national data protection authority.

The entity or individuals responsible for the breach have not been identified, and investigations into the hack are ongoing.

Asset Recovery EffortsAccording to available data at 4:42 pm UTC, stablecoin issuers Tether and Circle successfully froze approximately $6.2 million associated with the attack. Meanwhile, $20 million had already been moved to new crypto wallets, and roughly $20 million—including all 106 BTC connected to the incident—remained in addresses traced by Mercado Bitcoin.

Asset StatusAmountFrozen by stablecoin issuers$6.2 millionMoved to new wallets$20 millionStill in identified addressesOver $20 million (including 106 BTC)As of July, Mercado Bitcoin reported a user base of 4.5 million. That same month, Tether, a leading stablecoin issuer, invested $20 million in the exchange to promote expansion into tokenization, payments, and credit services within Brazil’s growing digital asset market.

Chile-based Orionx, another Tether-supported cryptocurrency exchange in Latin America, ceased operations in September after forensic auditors discovered over $7 million of customer funds had been transferred to uncontrolled wallets.

This recent breach at Mercado Bitcoin follows another high-profile incident, as Binance, a global cryptocurrency platform, experienced a $6.3 billion theft targeting its hot wallets days earlier. Binance implemented a temporary suspension of deposits and withdrawals and later resumed withdrawals, reporting that it had restored 95% of the stolen assets.

Bright Minds Biosciences Investigation Notice: Levi & Korsinsky Notifies Investors of Pending Investigation Into Bright Minds Biosciences (DRUG)
DRUG Bright Minds Biosciences
FMP Stock News
Original source text
The FDA cited mouse toxicity findings and insufficient pharmacokinetic and juvenile-toxicity data when it placed Bright Minds' planned Phase 2 BMB-101 epilepsy trial on partial clinical hold. An investigation is underway on behalf of DRUG investors who suffered losses.

, /PRNewswire/ -- Mouse toxicity findings and insufficient juvenile-toxicity data led the FDA to place Bright Minds Biosciences' (NASDAQ: DRUG) planned Phase 2 BMB-101 epilepsy trial on partial clinical hold, and DRUG shares sold off sharply. If you bought Bright Minds stock and lost money after the hold was announced, you may have legal rights. Investors who suffered losses are encouraged to request a free review of their losses or contact Joseph E. Levi, Esq. at [email protected] or (212) 363-7500.

The FDA cited three concerns: toxicity findings in mice, insufficient pharmacokinetic data, and insufficient juvenile-toxicity data to support enrolling pediatric patients. The planned U.S. study was designed to evaluate BMB-101 in epilepsy and developmental and epileptic encephalopathies (DEE), with pediatric enrollment.

Bright Minds stated the hold was limited to the planned U.S. study and emphasized that its other ongoing trials were unaffected, but the FDA's action raised broader questions about the safety data supporting BMB-101 and the Company's ability to advance the program as planned. Moreover, despite publicly disagreeing with the FDA's interpretation of the mouse toxicity findings, Bright Minds acknowledged that it had not yet received the agency's full letter and that additional data or studies could be required. As a result, the Company faced potentially significant delays and additional development requirements, leaving the planned study's design, timing, and regulatory pathway uncertain.

The Levi & Korsinsky investigation into potential securities law violations is ongoing. Shareholders who lost money on DRUG can check whether they qualify to recover losses or call (212) 363-7500.

WHY LEVI & KORSINSKY -- Ranked in ISS Securities Class Action Services' Top 50 Report for seven consecutive years, Levi & Korsinsky, LLP is a nationally recognized leader in shareholder rights litigation. With a team of over 70 professionals, the firm has recovered hundreds of millions of dollars for investors.

Frequently Asked Questions About the DRUG Investigation

Q: What is the DRUG investigation about?A: An investigation is pending concerning Bright Minds Biosciences (NASDAQ: DRUG) regarding potential securities law violations. Shares sold off sharply after the Company disclosed that the FDA had placed its planned Phase 2 BMB-101 trial on partial clinical hold. The FDA cited toxicity findings in mice and insufficient pharmacokinetic and juvenile-toxicity data. The selloff caused losses for shareholders.

Q: Who is eligible to participate in the DRUG investigation?A: Investors who purchased DRUG stock or securities and suffered financial losses may be eligible. Eligibility is based on purchase date and documented losses -- not on whether you still hold the shares.

Q: Which statements are being investigated as potentially misleading?A: The investigation is examining whether Bright Minds made materially misleading statements or omissions regarding BMB-101's clinical development and the planned Phase 2 program, particularly whether the Company adequately disclosed known regulatory risks associated with preclinical toxicity findings and insufficient pharmacokinetic and juvenile-toxicity data. When the Company disclosed the FDA's partial clinical hold, the stock price declined sharply.

Q: What do DRUG investors need to do right now?A: Investors may gather brokerage records showing purchase dates, share quantities, and prices paid. Submit your information for a no-cost, no-obligation evaluation of your potential recovery. No immediate action is required to remain eligible to participate in the investigation.

Q: What documents do I need to participate?A: Brokerage statements or trade confirmations showing purchase dates, share quantities, prices paid, and any subsequent sale dates and prices.

Q: What if I already sold my DRUG shares -- can I still recover losses?A: Yes. Eligibility is based on when you purchased, not whether you still hold the shares. Investors who bought DRUG and sold at a loss may still participate in the investigation.

Q: What does it cost me to participate?A: There is no upfront cost to submit your information and review whether you may be eligible to recover. Should you choose to participate in any resulting action, these matters are generally handled on a contingency basis, with any attorneys' fees and expenses subject to court approval.

Q: What if I live outside the United States?A: U.S. securities investigations generally cover purchases on U.S. exchanges regardless of the investor's country of residence. Bright Minds shares trade on the NASDAQ under the ticker DRUG.

XRP Sees Three Buying Waves at $1.24 in Two Days: What Comes Next?
XRP Ripple
CoinGecko News
Original source text
XRP has attracted buyers at $1.24 three times in just two days, and this makes the price level an important part of its current market structure. 

- Advertisement -

On each occasion, buyers stepped in as XRP approached the level, absorbed the selling pressure, and pushed the price back up. These repeated reactions suggest that demand is strong around $1.24, as XRP faces pressure from the wider crypto market.

Well-known crypto analyst Marzell had identified $1.24 as a key support level before these recent tests. So far, the price action has supported this suggestion, as buyers continue to defend the zone each time XRP returns to it. 

XRP Buyers Defend $1.24 After Major Market Sell-Off
The repeated buying around $1.24 is particularly noteworthy given the events behind XRP’s recent decline. The token dropped 4.2% in 24 hours after hackers drained $6.3 billion worth of multiple assets from Binance on Oct. 29. 

The breach triggered widespread selling across the entire crypto market and led to fresh concerns about exchange security.

- Advertisement -

The sell-off affected several major cryptocurrencies. Bitcoin fell to a six-week low of $76,368, while Ethereum dropped more than 3% to a two-month low near $2,178. 

Both assets eventually found some support as the market began to stabilize. Meanwhile, XRP also came under heavy pressure and briefly slipped below $1.24 during the sharp decline.

- Advertisement -

The market downturn also forced leveraged traders out of their positions. Long-position liquidations reached $16 million on Friday as falling prices caught traders on the wrong side of the market. However, buyers continued to return whenever XRP approached $1.24.

XRP Struggles to Break Above $1.27
While buyers have managed to defend $1.24, XRP has struggled to move above $1.27. Every recovery from support has faced selling pressure around this level, preventing the asset from making a stronger move higher. 

XRP buyers repeatedly step in at the $1.24 support
This has left XRP trading between a price floor that buyers continue to defend and a ceiling that sellers have so far protected. The repeated movement between $1.24 and $1.27 has created a narrow trading range. 

Traders often refer to this type of price action as a coil because the market continues to move within a tightening range before making a move in either direction. However, there is no clear indication yet whether the eventual breakout will favor buyers or sellers.

XRP also faces resistance from three major exponential moving averages (EMAs). The price currently trades below the 20-day ($1.32), 50-day ($1.35), and 100-day ($1.32) EMAs. This adds to the selling pressure that buyers must overcome before XRP can establish a sustained recovery.

For this reason, breaking above $1.27 would be an important step toward improving the short-term outlook. However, a brief move above the level would not be enough to confirm a breakout. Buyers would need to push XRP above $1.27, secure a close beyond it, and keep the price above that level.

XRP Could Target $1.30 or Drop Toward $1.18
According to Marzell, a confirmed break above $1.27 could send XRP toward $1.30. The analyst said $1.30 is an important expansion area, suggesting that a sustained move above the current resistance could give XRP room to advance further.

Developments surrounding the Binance breach could also help improve market sentiment. Binance pledged to cover all losses resulting from the incident and temporarily suspended deposits and withdrawals while carrying out security checks. The exchange has also frozen approximately $3 billion in stolen assets. 

However, XRP could face another decline if buyers fail to defend $1.24. A breakdown below this support would put $1.20 in focus. This level represents the next liquidity pool, where buy orders are likely concentrated. If XRP also loses $1.20, the decline could extend toward $1.18, which marks the potential flush target.

Why Capri Holdings Stock Crushed it Today
CPRI Capri Holdings
FMP Stock News
Original source text
Still riding the positive momentum from a satisfying quarterly earnings report, Capri Holdings (CPRI +7.33%) stock cruised to a more than 7% gain on Monday. Also providing plenty of fuel for this was a set of analyst price target increases on the fashion conglomerate's stock.

A company in style for the marketCapri's second quarter of fiscal 2027 results were published Friday morning. Although revenue declined by almost 6% year over year to $809 million, the company flipped to a non-GAAP (adjusted) net income of $45 million. On top of that, it obliterated analyst profitability estimates and comfortably beat on the top line.

Image source: Getty Images.

On Monday, analysts tracking the stock reacted overwhelmingly positively to the consumer discretionary company's performance. Several expressed this by raising their Capri price targets.

Among these was Brooke Roach from the ever-influential investment bank Goldman Sachs (GS +0.47%). She lifted hers to $24 from $18, albeit while maintaining her neutral recommendation. A more bullish note was authored by Barclays' (BCS +1.39%) Adrienne Yih, who now feels the stock is worth $24 apiece, up from her preceding $19. She kept her overweight (i.e., buy) recommendation intact.

CPRI Capri$20.05+$1.37 (+7.33%)

NYSE · As of 4:00 PM ET 11/02/26

A tale of two fashion linesI'm always rather hesitant about fashion stocks, as they're subject to trends, whims, and the health of the economy. That said, Capri's Jimmy Choo line did especially well and looks set to continue doing so, even if the larger Michael Kors unit is currently in turnaround mode. Meanwhile, management is effectively trimming costs behind the scenes. If I were to consider buying any fashion title, I'd certainly add this one to the list.

Brinker International (EAT) Price Forecast: Bullish Reversal Targets New Highs
EAT.US Brinker International
FMP Stock News
Original source text
Double-Bottom Breakout Revives Bullish Trend
Brinker International, Inc. (EAT), an American multinational hospitality company that owns Chili’s and Maggiano’s Little Italy restaurant chains, triggered a bullish double-bottom reversal signal last week on a rally above the recent lower swing high of $212.23. That breakout suggests the first pullback after a new all-time high of $254.99 was reached in August may have completed.

The low of the pullback at $182.28 resulted in a higher swing low for the rising trend structure. It represented a successful test of support near a key prior resistance zone defined by the $192.22 peak in February 2025 and the slightly lower peak in June at $187.12. Since the support test was followed by a decisive advance, the larger bullish trend is showing signs of resuming. The ability to hold this higher swing low is therefore important to maintaining the bullish technical outlook.

Momentum Recovery Across Multiple Time Frames
In addition to the double bottom reversal signal, strength was confirmed during last week’s advance by a reclaim of the 50-day moving average, with Monday marking the fourth consecutive daily close above that average. In addition, the 20-week moving average was reclaimed after a few weeks of trading below it, and the move was confirmed with a weekly closing price above the 20-week moving average. The recovery of both averages strengthens the bullish case by showing improving momentum across the daily and weekly time frames.

Earnings Catalyst Adds to Upside Potential
The bullish reversal in EAT followed the release of its fiscal Q1 2027 earnings report last Wednesday, October 28. The following day, several major firms raised or reaffirmed their bullish price targets, ranging from $270 to $300 per share. Technical projections include several levels from $292.64 to $340.94, as shown in the weekly chart. This places the technical projection above the recently established all-time high and provides potential upside objectives if the recovery continues.

Consolidation Sets Up Next Support Test
Nonetheless, this doesn’t mean that EAT will immediately resume its advance. It hit a high of $231.74 last Wednesday and has been consolidating inside that day’s range of $231.74 to $201.83 for the following three sessions. A decline below $201.83 could expose possible dynamic support near the 20-day moving average at $198.65 and last Tuesday’s high of $198.04. This would be the first test of support at the 20-day moving average since last week’s rally above it. Ideally, buyers would defend that average or the nearby prior high if tested, preserving the improving short-term structure. Ultimately, holding these support levels would help confirm that the pullback has ended and that EAT is positioned to resume its larger bullish trend.

Healthpeak (DOC) Q3 FFO and Revenues Surpass Estimates
DOC-NYSE Healthpeak Properties
FMP Stock News
Original source text
Healthpeak (DOC - Free Report) came out with quarterly funds from operations (FFO) of $0.44 per share, beating the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $0.43 per share. This compares to FFO of $0.46 per share a year ago. These figures are adjusted for non-recurring items.

This quarterly report represents an FFO surprise of +2.33%. A quarter ago, it was expected that this health care real estate investment trust would post FFO of $0.44 per share when it actually produced FFO of $0.46, delivering a surprise of +4.55%.

Over the last four quarters, the company has surpassed consensus FFO estimates four times.

Healthpeak, which belongs to the Zacks REIT and Equity Trust - Other industry, posted revenues of $820.89 million for the quarter ended September 2026, surpassing the Zacks Consensus Estimate by 8.26%. This compares to year-ago revenues of $705.87 million. The company has topped consensus revenue estimates four times over the last four quarters.

The sustainability of the stock's immediate price movement based on the recently-released numbers and future FFO expectations will mostly depend on management's commentary on the earnings call.

Healthpeak shares have added about 18.4% since the beginning of the year versus the S&P 500's gain of 10.7%.

What's Next for Healthpeak?While Healthpeak has outperformed the market so far this year, the question that comes to investors' minds is: what's next for the stock?

There are no easy answers to this key question, but one reliable measure that can help investors address this is the company's FFO outlook. Not only does this include current consensus FFO expectations for the coming quarter(s), but also how these expectations have changed lately.

Empirical research shows a strong correlation between near-term stock movements and trends in estimate revisions. Investors can track such revisions by themselves or rely on a tried-and-tested rating tool like the Zacks Rank, which has an impressive track record of harnessing the power of estimate revisions.

Ahead of this earnings release, the estimate revisions trend for Healthpeak was unfavorable. While the magnitude and direction of estimate revisions could change following the company's just-released earnings report, the current status translates into a Zacks Rank #4 (Sell) for the stock. So, the shares are expected to underperform the market in the near future. You can see the complete list of today's Zacks #1 Rank (Strong Buy) stocks here.

It will be interesting to see how estimates for the coming quarters and the current fiscal year change in the days ahead. The current consensus FFO estimate is $0.43 on $739.78 million in revenues for the coming quarter and $1.77 on $3.02 billion in revenues for the current fiscal year.

Investors should be mindful of the fact that the outlook for the industry can have a material impact on the performance of the stock as well. In terms of the Zacks Industry Rank, REIT and Equity Trust - Other is currently in the top 40% of the 250 plus Zacks industries. Our research shows that the top 50% of the Zacks-ranked industries outperform the bottom 50% by a factor of more than 2 to 1.

American Healthcare REIT (AHR - Free Report) , another stock in the same industry, has yet to report results for the quarter ended September 2026. The results are expected to be released on November 5.

This real estate investment trust is expected to post quarterly earnings of $0.56 per share in its upcoming report, which represents a year-over-year change of +27.3%. The consensus EPS estimate for the quarter has been revised 3.5% higher over the last 30 days to the current level.

American Healthcare REIT's revenues are expected to be $770.48 million, up 34.5% from the year-ago quarter.

TRON overtakes Ethereum in USDT as stablecoin supply hits $92.25B
TRX Tron
CoinGecko News
Original source text
TRON has overtaken Ethereum in average USDT supply during the third quarter of 2026, as its stablecoin balances and monthly active addresses have reached record quarterly averages.

Summary

TRON held 49.49% of USDT across 12 tracked chains, averaging $90.75 billion during Q3.
Stablecoin transfers totaled $2.18 trillion, while average stablecoin holder addresses reached 76.53 million.
Monthly active addresses averaged 17.81 million, although activity eased toward the end of September.
Network revenue fell 3.10% from Q2 to $693.21 million as average transaction fees declined.

Token Terminal’s Q3 report, published Nov. 2 and shared by TRON DAO, puts the network’s average stablecoin supply at $92.25 billion, up 4.18% from the previous quarter and 14.58% from a year earlier.

Across the chains covered by the report, average native stablecoin supply fell 2.41% quarter over quarter to $298.23 billion. TRON’s share reached 30.93%, gaining 1.96 percentage points from Q2 as its own balances grew against that decline.

TRON takes the USDT lead from Ethereum
Within TRON’s stablecoin total, USDT supply averaged $90.75 billion, compared with Ethereum’s $87.73 billion. The figures give TRON a $3.02 billion lead and put USDT at approximately 98.4% of its average stablecoin supply, calculated from the report’s totals.

Ethereum’s average USDT balance fell 7.59% from Q2, while TRON’s grew 4.11%, according to the report. Together, the two networks accounted for 97.33% of native USDT across the 12 chains tracked.

The lead changed hands during July. Token Terminal recorded TRON first moving ahead on July 16, briefly falling behind, then remaining ahead from July 23. By Sept. 30, TRON held $92.35 billion in USDT against Ethereum’s $86.69 billion, a quarter-end gap of $5.66 billion.

For all native stablecoins combined, TRON ended September with $93.88 billion outstanding. Its average supply has grown for three consecutive quarters, the report states.

Stablecoin holders outnumber Ethereum and Solana
TRON averaged 76.53 million stablecoin holder addresses during Q3, up 2.25% from Q2 and 11.27% year over year, according to Token Terminal.

The report’s chain comparison puts Ethereum at 26.32 million and Solana at 12.11 million. TRON’s count was nearly twice their combined 38.43 million, based on those published figures, and represented 40.45% of the total across 45 tracked chains.

Token Terminal defines holders as addresses with a nonzero native stablecoin balance and sums them across stablecoins. The metric counts addresses, rather than establishing how many individual people hold the tokens.

Transfers reached $2.18 trillion, up 4.17% from Q2 and 3.70% year over year. The report calculates that quarterly transfer volume equaled 23.67 times average supply, equivalent to the average stablecoin dollar moving once every 3.89 days.

In separate Q3 research, Nansen reported $2.2126 trillion in settlement. Its figures featured in earlier settlement coverage; Token Terminal’s $2.18 trillion is the transfer-volume series used here.

Record transactions accompany lower fees
Network transactions totaled 1.08 billion, up 0.28% from Q2 and 31.19% year over year, Token Terminal reported. Average throughput slipped 0.81% to 135.76 transactions per second because Q3 contained one more day than Q2.

Despite the higher quarterly transaction count, revenue fell to $693.21 million, down 3.10% from Q2 and 34.40% from a year earlier. Average transaction fees dropped to $0.64, a quarterly decline of 3.87% and a yearly decline of 50.20%.

The report links the yearly fee comparison to Proposal 104, which cut TRON’s Energy price from 210 sun to 100 sun on Aug. 29, 2025.

Token Terminal counts transaction fees paid through burned TRX or staking-derived Energy and Bandwidth as network revenue. Previous fee coverage explains the distinction between transfer value, network fees, and payments to TRON DAO.

Active addresses rise as US access expands
Monthly active addresses averaged 17.81 million, up 8.71% quarter over quarter and 21.86% year over year. Token Terminal measures unique addresses sending at least one transaction over a rolling 30-day period.

Activity moderated during the quarter, moving from 20.09 million at June’s close to 15.42 million on Sept. 30.

“Transaction growth outpaced the increase in active addresses over the past year,” TRON DAO said in commentary accompanying the report.

The report identifies three US access developments during Q3: Anchorage Digital added native TRX staking on July 14, Bitnomial listed TRX futures on July 27, and Canary Capital launched its Staked TRX ETF, trading under TRXS, on Sept. 9.

TRON transaction volume tops 16 billion, TRX price faces key support at $0.30
TRX Tron
CoinGecko News
Original source text
TRON has crossed a significant milestone, with its network processing more than 16 billion cumulative transactions. The surge in activity underscores TRON’s ongoing relevance in the blockchain space, particularly as its daily transaction count continues to increase.

Record-Breaking Transaction GrowthCrypto analyst Crypto Patel reported that TRON handles approximately 11.56 million transactions every day, a figure highlighting the platform’s robust capacity for managing large-scale blockchain activity. This high throughput is seen as a sign of enduring usage across TRON’s ecosystem, which includes decentralized finance solutions and digital payments.

Sustained growth of TRON’s transaction volume further illustrates its central role in supporting various on-chain applications. As TRON’s infrastructure processes millions of daily operations, industry observers note that its scalability remains a key strength.

With more than 16 billion transactions recorded, TRON continues to demonstrate sustained high-volume use, positioning itself as a leading network for blockchain-based applications.

Corporate Treasury ExpansionIn parallel with network growth, Tron Inc. has increased its corporate TRX treasury. The company recently purchased 158,877 TRX at an average price of $0.3147, bringing total holdings to over 721.6 million TRX. Tron Inc. has outlined its intention to further expand its TRX reserves in support of long-term shareholder interests.

Repeated acquisitions reflect ongoing confidence from Tron Inc. in the network’s future. However, the growing corporate treasury has not directly translated into immediate price gains for TRX, as broader market conditions continue to play an influential role.

TRX Price Outlook: Technical Patterns in FocusAmid these milestones, TRX’s price performance has met with technical challenges. Technical analyst Crypto With Gopal has identified a rising wedge pattern on the TRX chart, with prices currently fluctuating between $0.31 and $0.35. A rising wedge pattern typically signals potential weakening of bullish momentum and can precede a bearish move.

The $0.30 level has emerged as a critical support area. According to Crypto With Gopal, bulls must defend this level to maintain TRX’s consolidation. If the price fails to hold above $0.30, the next significant support is noted at $0.15, though this would only come into play with a confirmed breakdown.

Crypto With Gopal highlighted that holding the $0.30 support could allow TRX to maintain its consolidation pattern, while losing this area could shift focus toward the $0.15 target in the event of further declines.

On the upside, resistance at the $0.36 to $0.37 range remains a key target for potential bullish attempts. The outcome of current price consolidation will largely depend on whether buying interest can absorb current selling pressure.

Given the increasing volatility and key technical thresholds in play, traders tracking TRX may benefit from using dedicated monitoring tools. In this context, CryptoAppsy’s real-time charting and smart price alert features enable users to closely watch TRX’s movement near the $0.30 support and $0.36 resistance, helping them to respond promptly as these crucial price levels are tested.

Investors are also monitoring Tron Inc.’s next corporate treasury moves and ongoing network performance, as both may influence market sentiment alongside technical factors.

Can TRON reclaim $0.33 after its $234M hack fueled buying spree?
TRX Tron
CoinGecko News
Original source text
On Thursday, the 29th of October, TRON [TRX] prices surged from $0.328 to $0.365 in a matter of hours. Attackers who had drained Binance hot wallets for $6.3 billion across ten blockchains rushed to swap their USDT for TRX.

Since Tether can freeze its stablecoin, the urgency to swap to TRX, where no central issuer can block transfers, saw a $234 million USDT swap to TRX on SunSwap, at $0.367 per TRX, blockchain data firm Bitquery confirmed.

At that time, the TRX market price had been only $0.33, which helped explain the swift price surge. Other intelligence platforms have since reported whale wallets with the stolen funds, turning the artificial buying spree into a supply overhang for the global stablecoin settlement giant.

TRX price bounce stopped at key retracement level Since Thursday’s price spike, the Layer 1 blockchain’s native token has witnessed a 13.4% price correction. Incidentally, the market structure on the 1-day timeframe had been bearish.

Source: TRX/USDT on TradingView The swing move southward from $0.3775 to $0.3108 in May and early June was the one that dictated the bearish market structure. Using these levels, Fibonacci retracement levels were plotted.

The 78.6% Fibonacci retracement level was at $0.363, and the price surge halted just above this level on Thursday. Thereafter, a daily session close below $0.3108 ensued.

The OBV was sliding lower, continuing the downtrend of recent weeks, while the MACD also took a sharp nosedive.

What next for TRX? Source: TRX/USDT on TradingView The MACD formed a bullish crossover in bearish territory, signaling a price bounce was underway. Based on the size of the impulse move down from $0.365, it is likely that the current bounce could go to $0.333-$0.352.

On the way, the $0.33 supply zone was also a place that could see a bearish price reaction.

Swing traders and long-term investors need to be mindful of the larger bear trend at play. A price bounce to $0.33 followed by a slide toward $0.30 or even $0.27 is a possibility for TRX in the coming weeks.

Final Summary The TRON price surge on Thursday was a result of artificial demand, and it reversed from a key technical resistance level. The altcoin is now in a bearish price structure, though a short-term bounce toward the $0.33 supply zone is possible.

TRON became an early route for stolen Binance funds, Elliptic finds
TRX Tron
CoinGecko News
Original source text
TRON served as a major early route for moving assets stolen in the Binance hack, according to a November 2 investigation by Elliptic. The blockchain analytics firm traced funds spreading across roughly 7,700 TRON addresses before much of the activity shifted elsewhere.

Elliptic’s summary showed how the attackers moved on some of its assets during and after stablecoin issuers such as Tether froze billions of dollars. Elliptic estimated that about $3.24 billion in digital assets were still sitting at the addresses associated with the theft at around 07:00 UTC on November 2.

Thousands of wallets carried the funds onward Binance reported approximately $6.3 billion stolen in the October 29 attack. The FBI subsequently attributed the theft to North Korea’s TraderTraitor group.

According to Elliptic’s investigation, the attackers swapped 234 million stolen USDT for TRX on SunSwap before Tether froze the remaining USDT on TRON.

A distribution wallet began breaking TRX into smaller chunk transfers on October 30. The funds travelled through thousands of different addresses and crossover bridges/services that exchange assets. ​

In total, $147M was seen leaving the TRON network, almost all of which left and reached the Ethereum network as ETH.

A total time of 51 hours was used, and a total of 1,113 transfers occurred from the time the distributing wallet came into service to its last transfer. The last transfer took place on 1 November at 05:33 UTC.

What the $242 million estimate covers In another November 1 thread, analyst SomaXBT calculated that about $242 million was laundered in roughly two days using TRON-linked routes.

Over two-thirds of the amount was allocated to routes leaving TRON (194M versus 194M). An added $22M was an estimated amount of fees, trading costs, and price change.

In both investigations, the money was moved through several services, ending up in newly created wallets, adding another layer of extra steps investigators had to follow.

Activity spreads beyond TRON By early November 1, TRON activity had largely stopped, Elliptic said. Movement subsequently picked up on Ethereum, Solana, and other networks.

Early on November 2, all 233 million stolen XRP moved to six new addresses. Elliptic also identified about 28 BTC passing through transactions that combine multiple users’ Bitcoin, complicating tracing.

Source: Elliptic Only a tiny amount was likely cashed out, according to Elliptic, meaning it is still possible for exchanges and brokers to intercept because investigators will be following the assets.

Final Summary Elliptic observed these stolen funds through approximately 7,700 TRON addresses until they appeared to migrate to other networks. On November 2, Elliptic said it found around $3.24 billion in addresses linked to the theft.

BNB: Millisecond Block Timestamps for Smart Contracts on BSC
BNB BNB
CoinGecko News
Original source text
TL;DRBEP-706 lets contracts read block timestamps in milliseconds.Existing block.timestamp values remain in seconds.Integrations should check timestamp units and returned data.Reth v0.1.3 changes how testing tools handle time overrides.A smart contract reading block.timestamp sees time in whole seconds. When several BNB Smart Chain (BSC) blocks fall within the same second, that leaves applications unable to read timing detail the chain already records.

BEP-706, included in the Jenner hardfork, makes that detail available through a new precompile at address 0x70. Contracts can use it to read the current block’s timestamp in milliseconds, while existing uses of block.timestamp continue to return seconds.

Why Milliseconds MatterImagine two blocks timestamped 12:00:00.200 and 12:00:00.800. A contract using block.timestamp sees the same second for both, even though they are 600 milliseconds apart. For a signed quote or an auction with a deadline shorter than a second, those readings lose useful detail.

BEP-706 uses request-for-quote settlement as an example. A market maker may sign a quote that is valid for only a few hundred milliseconds. With whole-second time, the settlement contract has to round the cutoff, potentially accepting the quote longer than intended or rejecting it earlier.

Millisecond timestamps let applications express those cutoffs more precisely. They can also support auction deadlines and checks on how recently a price feed was updated. Whether that improves pricing or execution depends on the application’s wider design.

Figure 1: Whole seconds can hide differences between blocks. The precompile exposes existing millisecond precision. Source: BEP-706.

How Contracts Read Millisecond TimestampsBSC block headers already carry millisecond information under BEP-520. The seconds field remains in place, while a separate header component records the remainder within that second. Nodes already validate this information through consensus.

The new precompile makes that value available to smart contracts. A contract makes a read-only static call to 0x70 and receives a 32-byte unsigned integer representing milliseconds since the Unix epoch. The precompile takes no arguments and ignores calldata.

BEP-706 sets the precompile’s computation charge at 20 gas. The calling contract also pays the applicable call and memory costs, so the total cost of using it is higher.

Applications opt into this finer precision when they need it. Contracts calculating deadlines with block.timestamp and durations in seconds continue to use the same units and behavior.

Figure 2: The new read path is additive. Existing block.timestamp semantics and units remain unchanged. Source: BEP-706.

What Developers Need to CheckThe returned value is the executing block’s timestamp. Every transaction in that block reads the same value. It does not record when a transaction reached the network or the exact moment an individual transaction executed.

The timing trust model also remains the same as block.timestamp: validators supply timestamps within consensus constraints. Finer precision preserves the timing assumptions applications already rely on.

Keep Timestamp Units ConsistentUse explicit units across contracts, signatures, and backends. A deadline signed in milliseconds must be compared with a timestamp in milliseconds. Mixing seconds and milliseconds can silently make an expiry far too short or far too long.

Figure 3: A hypothetical quote expires within one second. Applications compare the deadline with block time using matching units. Source: BEP-706.

Check the Returned DataIntegrations should check both that the call succeeds and that it returns the expected 32 bytes.

Before activation, the address behaves as an empty account. A low-level call can therefore succeed without returning a timestamp. A successful call alone does not establish that the feature is available.

RPC Changes for Simulation TestingThe reth-bsc v0.1.3 release notes describe a related change for tools that override block values during simulation.

In eth_call, eth_estimateGas, debug_traceCall, and eth_simulateV1, a supplied blockOverrides.prevRandao must encode a millisecond remainder from 0 to 999 as a 32-byte hexadecimal value.

The time override remains in seconds. Overriding time alone resets the millisecond remainder to zero.

These checks apply immediately after upgrading to v0.1.3, including before Jenner activation. Teams using block overrides should update their test inputs alongside the client.

Ondo Finance Launches MAG7X Token Combining Big Tech Stocks With BlackRock Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs
ONDO Ondo
CoinGecko News
Original source text
Ondo Finance has launched MAG7X, a single token tracking seven major tech stocks plus BlackRock's IBIT and ETHA ETFs, tradable 24/7 on Ethereum, BNB Chain and Solana.

@OndoFinance has launched MAG7X, an index token that bundles the seven largest US technology companies with two of @BlackRock's crypto exchange-traded funds: the iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT) and the iShares Ethereum Trust (ETHA). The product gives holders exposure to $BTC and $ETH funds alongside Big Tech equities through one onchain asset.

How the MAG7X Token WorksThe token can be created, redeemed and traded around the clock on networks including @Ethereum, @BNBChain and @Solana, so it is not tied to stock exchange opening hours. It is built on the Ondo Stocks infrastructure and can be accessed through self-custody wallets and decentralized platforms such as 1inch and MetaMask.

MAG7X sits within Ondo Intelligent Portfolios. Ondo expanded that lineup from three to seven products on Oct. 1, adding strategies focused on the Magnificent 7, artificial intelligence and targeted income. The Magnificent 7 and crypto product, listed as MAG7Xon, combines exposure to the Magnificent 7 technology companies with crypto assets. Each portfolio token represents exposure to a weighted basket of assets with onchain visibility into holdings, weights and rebalances, and investors can mint, redeem or transfer the single token without managing individual positions.

The portfolios have been rolling out across chains. The Solana launch extends a product line previously introduced on Ethereum and BNB Chain. Ondo already has more than $500 million in total value locked across tokenized assets on Solana, according to its release. That figure covers Ondo's broader tokenized asset presence, not the new portfolio lineup alone.

Ondo's Tokenized Stocks BusinessThe underlying assets come from Ondo's tokenized equities platform. Ondo Stocks, formerly Ondo Global Markets, tokenizes US stocks, ETFs and other assets, issued on blockchain networks and backed 1:1 by the underlying asset. The tokens give holders economic exposure to the underlying asset's price rather than legal ownership. Ondo said in May that the platform had passed $1 billion in total value locked, a first for a tokenized stocks platform.

Access is restricted in some markets. Ondo's platform is aimed at eligible non-US investors, and US persons are restricted by securities rules. Investors should check eligibility in their jurisdiction before buying.

The launch reflects a wider push to package traditional and crypto assets in a single tradable token. Coinbase has also moved in this direction:

Brazilian crypto platform Mercado Bitcoin has confirmed the detection and containment of an issue in one of its systems. As a precaution, the exchange has temporarily suspended deposits and withdrawals, assuring clients of the safety of their assets and the absence of a data leak. 

The incident occurred shortly after the platform passed a local licensing deadline.

According to independent blockchain company Hypernative, suspicious outflows from wallets linked to the exchange exceeded $40 million (approximately 217 million reais). Analysts recorded the movement of assets on the Ethereum, Bitcoin, Solana, Tron and Stellar (XLM) networks.

In total, the activity spanned at least 10 blockchains, also including Polygon, Arbitrum, Avalanche and BNB Smart Chain. The first suspicious transfers were recorded at around 02:15 UTC and involved Bitcoin deposit addresses attributed to the exchange. 

Among the flagged assets were 106 BTC and 2,852 ETH. The hackers carried out direct token transfers, which indicates a compromise of operational reserves rather than segregated client assets.

Focus on Stellar and the exchange's countermeasuresAmong the withdrawn assets, blockchain analysts recorded a large volume of Stellar tokens: about 6.7 million XLM were consolidated at addresses linked to the suspicious transactions.

As part of the investigation and coordination of efforts with the authorities, Mercado Bitcoin published a specific Stellar destination address to help the community and security firms track the movement of assets in real time. 

The move is aimed at monitoring the movement of tokens and preventing their laundering through third-party services.

At the moment, the exchange is conducting an investigation, tracking the assets and promising to provide regular updates. The exchange has not yet confirmed the amount involved, disclosed which system was compromised or given a date for resuming deposits and withdrawals. 

Until the platform fully resumes normal operations and the security of its infrastructure is confirmed, users are advised to refrain from making new deposits.

WalletConnect Adds Stellar Payments as Bermuda Ticketing Rollout Targets 2027
XLM Stellar Lumens
CoinGecko News
Original source text
TL;DR

WalletConnect announced expanded Stellar support on October 29.
LOBSTR is described as the first live wallet for Stellar payments.
The PTIX merchant rollout is expected in Q2 2027.

WalletConnect is expanding payment access on Stellar while preparing a separate merchant rollout in Bermuda. Its October 29 announcement says WalletConnect Pay supports the network, with LOBSTR as the first live Stellar wallet.

The Bermuda initiative, developed with Penrose Partners, begins with ticketing platform Premier Tickets, or PTIX. That integration is expected in the second quarter of 2027, so wallet support available now should be distinguished from the planned merchant launch.

Connecting a wallet is only the first step
A payment interface needs to identify both the customer’s wallet and the transaction the merchant expects. Those tasks sound simple until an order expires, a customer changes devices or a transfer arrives after the checkout page has been closed.

For ticketing, the sequence is particularly important. The buyer wants confirmation that a seat has been secured; the organizer needs confidence that payment belongs to the correct order. A blockchain transaction hash does not, by itself, contain every detail of that commercial relationship.

A useful integration must connect payment status to inventory and customer support. Otherwise, a fast transfer can still create a slow service experience when the ticketing system cannot confidently match the money to the purchase.

Direct settlement changes the platform’s role
The proposed PTIX arrangement sends customer funds to the event organizer’s wallet without the ticketing platform holding them. That design changes where money sits between the moment a customer pays and the moment the organizer can use it.

It can reduce the need for the platform to collect and subsequently distribute balances. It also requires careful handling of refunds, disputed orders and changes to an event. Those obligations do not disappear because the transfer takes a more direct route.

A cancelled concert offers a straightforward example. Returning a payment requires identifying the right recipient, confirming the amount and deciding which party is responsible for making the transfer. A well-designed service should make that process comprehensible to a customer who has no interest in the underlying network.

Merchant adoption needs familiar accounting
For an organizer, receiving a digital asset is useful only if it fits the business’s finances. The organizer needs to know how much usable value it has received, what costs apply and how the balance will pay suppliers or other expenses.

Some businesses may want to retain a token; others may prefer conversion into bank money. Those choices affect reconciliation and liquidity planning. The availability of a wallet connection does not establish that every merchant will make the same decision.

Payment records also need to remain useful after the event. A business must be able to connect sales, refunds and settlement to its own accounts. The more the system can handle these ordinary tasks predictably, the less specialist knowledge a merchant needs to accept the payment method.

The rollout provides a concrete adoption test
The announced timeline gives observers a clear milestone: a functioning ticket purchase from a supported wallet, with a merchant receiving the expected funds and a buyer receiving the correct ticket. That is a more useful measure than the theoretical reach of a wallet network.

After launch, repeat use and the rate of failed or abandoned payments would help assess whether the option solves a real customer problem. Lower processing costs would matter if they survive the full journey, including conversion and support.

WalletConnect’s Stellar expansion opens a technical route, while the Bermuda project attempts to give that route a regular commercial purpose. The two developments fit together, but their different launch stages need to remain clear as the integration progresses.

USDC Treasury burns 100 million USDC on Solana
USDC USD Coin
CoinGecko News
Original source text
Circle's treasury removed roughly $100.15 million in stablecoins from circulation in another routine supply adjustment

The USDC Treasury burned 100 million USDC on November 2, 2026, according to blockchain tracker Whale Alert.

The tokens were worth approximately $100.15 million at the time.

The burn took place on the Solana blockchain. Whale Alert flagged it as it happened.

What actually happened
Circle, the company behind USDC, destroyed 100 million tokens held in its treasury.

Burning a token removes it from circulation for good.

The reported value of the burn was approximately $100.151 million. The slight premium over a flat $100 million reflects where USDC was trading at the moment of the burn, not any change in how the token works.

No unusual market disruptions were reported around the transaction.

Burns like this one are part of how Circle manages USDC’s supply. The goal is to make sure the number of tokens in circulation never exceeds the reserves backing them.

USDC is designed to be backed 1:1 by the US dollar. Every token out in the wild should have a matching dollar sitting behind it.

A familiar pattern
This was not Circle’s first large burn of the year, and it was not its biggest.

Whale Alert data cited in the research shows a 107 million USDC burn in August 2026. The same research also points to even larger burns of 134.6 million and 151 million USDC in recent months.

These supply adjustments happen across multiple blockchains, including Solana and Ethereum. They track user demand and liquidity needs on each network.

When demand for USDC shifts on a given chain, the supply on that chain shifts with it. Minting adds tokens when demand rises. Burning removes them when it falls or when liquidity needs to be rebalanced.

Why Solana matters here
USDC is not tied to a single blockchain. It lives on several networks at once, and Circle manages supply on each of them separately.

That means a burn on Solana tells you something about USDC activity on Solana specifically. It does not necessarily say anything about the stablecoin’s total footprint across every chain.

Background on USDC supply management
Traders use stablecoins as a parking spot during volatility. They also serve as a liquidity layer for cross-chain transactions and trading across platforms.

Regular burns are one of the most visible parts of that process. Every one of them shows up on a public blockchain, where trackers like Whale Alert can surface it in real time.

What this means for the market
On its own, a 100 million USDC burn is unlikely to move markets. Nothing in the reporting suggests it did.

According to the research findings, supply management practices like these could attract institutional interest. The logic is simple: a stablecoin that visibly maintains its backing is an easier sell to a compliance department.

There is a caveat worth keeping in mind. A burn shows that supply went down on a particular chain at a particular time. It does not, by itself, explain why demand shifted or where that liquidity went next.

For now, the 100 million USDC removed on Solana fits neatly into a pattern that includes 107 million, 134.6 million, and 151 million USDC burns earlier in the year.

Bloomberg: After the $6.3 billion crypto theft, Binance offers higher rebates to select market makers to maintain liquidity.

According to Bloomberg, after Binance suffered a record $630 million hack, the crypto exchange has increased incentives for some market makers trading on its platform to boost trading activity. People familiar with the matter said that shortly after last week’s security breach, the firm reached out to smaller trading firms, offering higher rebates in spot and futures markets.
Per its website, Binance categorizes market makers into different tiers based on the liquidity they provide. Firms contributing a larger share of trading volume qualify for higher tiers, which typically come with larger rebates to lower their transaction costs. Under the one-week promotion, Tiers 2 and 3 market makers will receive the same rebate rates as Tier 4 participants, the platform’s highest tier, the sources added.
The changes are designed to give smaller liquidity providers stronger financial incentives to quote on the exchange and maintain deeper order books, the sources noted. A Binance spokesperson said the exchange’s latest post-breach moves help calm the market, adding: “As we prioritize clear communication, we took immediate steps to preserve our core strength: liquidity.”
Market makers play a critical role by continuously providing bid and ask quotes; the liquidity they supply allows other investors to trade without triggering sharp price swings. According to Talos, within 24 hours of the hack, Bitcoin order book depth on Binance dropped roughly 30%, with depth within a 1% price range falling from $45 million to $32 million. Market depth measures how much trading volume can be absorbed without causing significant price volatility.

Securitize Expands Tokenized Stocks to 25 Equities
SOL Solana USDC USD Coin
CoinGecko News
Original source text
On November 2, 2026, Securitize expanded its stock offering to 25 equities, adding 13 U.S. companies for eligible investors in the United States, European Union and other permitted jurisdictions. The securities trade on Solana and settle in $USDC, with liquidity infrastructure supported by Jump Trading.

The additions follow the October 8 launch of Securitize Stocks, which introduced 12 equities. The expansion adds Arista Networks, Flex, Exxon Mobil, GameStop, Johnson & Johnson, Lockheed Martin, Lumentum, Merck, Salesforce, Seagate Technology, Texas Instruments, Walt Disney and Uber Technologies.

The new names join the original offering identified in the announcement by the tickers $AAPL, $MSFT, $NVDA, $GOOG, $TSLA, $META, $AMZN, $NFLX, $CRCL, $SPCX, $MSTR and $PLTR. Access remains subject to investor eligibility. Securitize’s trading documentation requires account approval and a whitelisted wallet before an investor can trade.

What the token holder owns Securitize describes each token as a security entitlement under UCC Article 8, backed by an underlying share. Applicable economic benefits include dividends and voting rights where the underlying share class carries them. The product page says the backing share is held in a segregated account and that the shares backing the tokens are never lent out.

Dividends reach investors net of applicable withholding. The legal holding arrangement depends on jurisdiction: U.S. customers hold security entitlements through Securitize Markets, while EU customers hold their interests through Securitize Europe Brokerage and Markets under its client terms and applicable EU and Spanish law.

Token holders become registered shareholders of the underlying issuer only if they convert. Securitize calls the instrument a convertible entitlement token. Conversion into shares on a company’s register depends on that company adopting issuer-sponsored tokenization, with Securitize’s transfer-agent partnerships providing the route.

The companies behind the newly available stocks have not sponsored, endorsed or issued the tokens. The offering creates no new shares. Secondary trading runs through Securitize Markets, an SEC-registered broker-dealer and FINRA/SIPC member. Securitize says this activity operates under existing securities laws without needing the SEC’s Innovation Exemption.

Approved wallets and protected market orders The trading FAQ specifies third-party self-custody wallets. Investors must create a Securitize account, complete identity verification and connect a wallet after approval. Securitize then whitelists the address. Securities can move only between whitelisted wallets on the platform. Transfers remain subject to approval even when investors hold the assets in their own Solana wallets.

Orders enter as market orders, with execution at the best available market price subject to price protection. The confirmation screen shows a reference based on the National Best Bid and Offer, not a guaranteed execution price. The fixed protection band is 0.10%, and users cannot change it.

The platform automatically rejects an order if the execution price moves beyond the protected level: higher for a purchase or lower for a sale. An investor can enter a rejected order again. Submission does not guarantee execution at the displayed reference: the order can still be rejected after the investor submits it.

The platform charges .10% of the trade amount in $USDC, according to the FAQ. That fee covers the gas charges associated with execution. Share prices are also expressed as a $USDC exchange rate per share; the documentation notes that the stablecoin’s exchange rate against the dollar can vary.

Quotes refresh every 30 seconds on the order screen and every 8 seconds in the confirmation window. When the stock price changes during order generation, the share quantity changes while the total $USDC spend remains fixed. An investor committing a fixed amount can receive a different number of shares as the price changes during confirmation.

Creating an order also requires wallet authentication. The FAQ instructs users to sign in through their wallet provider, specify the $USDC amount and review the reference price, estimated share quantity and total spend. After accepting the conditions, the investor receives a single wallet-provider request to approve the transaction, which must be confirmed before proceeding.

After submission, the platform says it notifies the user whether the transaction succeeded or the order was rejected. Successful execution prices and times are available through Securitize, on the blockchain and in an email confirmation sent at execution. Investors can use those records to compare the completed trade with the reference they saw before approving it.

Trading hours need clarification Securitize’s public documents give different descriptions of current availability. The investment product page advertises 24/5 trading, with 24/7 coming soon. The trading FAQ states: “Trading is available on our site from 4:00 AM to 5:30 PM ET.” The November 2 release says trading is initially available beyond traditional market hours and describes continuous availability as a plan.

The product page also says trading hours, supported stocks and conversion features are subject to change. Investors cannot establish a consistent current schedule from these pages alone. The disclosures on the Exxon Mobil asset page warn that extended-hours sessions can bring lower liquidity, wider bid/ask spreads, greater volatility and less market visibility.

The settlement asset carries separate limitations. Securitize’s product disclosure says $USDC is neither legal tender nor a bank deposit and is not protected by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or the Securities Investor Protection Corporation. The broker’s stated memberships should not be read as insurance for the stablecoin used to fund a stock purchase.

Securitize reserves the right to withdraw listings from venues as needed or required, according to the release’s disclosures. The announcement also names future trading venues, but its disclosures say the NYSE and OKXICE venues have not launched. Trading there remains subject to regulatory approval and venue review and may not occur; the release gives no firm start date for either venue.

Key Takeaways $108.8M in USDC left three exchange accounts. 11 of 15 receiving wallets had prior payouts. $62.98M in stablecoins became 27,553 ETH. Only $3.7M remained in freezable USDC. The figures come from Bitquery’s November 2 investigation, which followed the money after on-chain investigator ZachXBT flagged the suspected theft from an EU entity, as relayed in a post by the X account Officer’s Notes.

Twenty-One Hours Across Three Exchanges The first withdrawal left OKX at 12:25 UTC on November 1. Kraken followed 44 minutes later and ended up paying 95% of the total, with Crypto.com supplying the rest alongside OKX. About two-thirds of the money, $73.2 million, went out in the three hours to 23:00 UTC. The final payment landed at 09:09 UTC the next morning.

One wallet received 43 Kraken withdrawals in 91 minutes, each below $50,000. Bitquery reads that as the thief working around a limit on individual withdrawals. If so, the cap changed the shape of the outflow, not its size.

$108.8M

USDC Bitquery counted from the exchanges’ main wallets to 15 addresses

$95.7M

The count without two wallets linked to the thief only through intermediaries

None of those is a loss the victim has confirmed. Bitquery read Ethereum only and checked the three exchanges’ main wallets, so other chains and other wallets at the same exchanges could add to the count. The victim is unnamed. The wallets’ history points to a trading or payments business that has used Kraken since May, a view Bitquery says it holds loosely.

Why the Old Wallets Point Past the Exchange Login Eleven of the 15 receiving wallets had taken payouts from the same exchanges before November 1, and together they received 84% of the money. The oldest took its first Kraken withdrawal on May 4 and 48 more before the theft. Several of the wallets paid one another over the summer. Eight of the 15 are Trust Wallet smart accounts set up to pay network fees in USDC, though Bitquery found nothing pointing to a flaw in the app itself.

That history is why Bitquery treats the wallets as the victim’s own, and it explains why the exchange login alone does not account for what happened next. The USDC typically moved on to a fresh wallet within three minutes, and sending it onward required the keys to the receiving wallet. Bitquery concludes the thief most likely held both the logins and those keys. In its reading, that points to a break-in on the owner’s devices or wallet setup, or to someone inside the victim’s own team. The chain cannot tell those apart.

The ownership call is still an inference from wallet behaviour, and neither the victim nor the exchanges have confirmed it. If some of those addresses belonged to an employee, contractor or counterparty, earlier payouts would show that the entity trusted a person, not that its own keys leaked. Either way, nothing in the trace shows a breach of Kraken, Crypto.com or OKX. The withdrawals came from one customer’s accounts.

Where an Allowlist Holds and Where It Gives Way An allowlist lets an account withdraw only to addresses approved in advance. The trace splits this theft into two cases, and they test that setting differently.

The 11 familiar wallets are the case an allowlist cannot address. If they were already approved, transfers to them would pass the check, because the setting restricts the address and says nothing about who holds its keys today.

The four new wallets, which took $17.27 million, are the opposite case. The first payments from both OKX and Kraken went to addresses with no prior history. As Bitquery puts it, if the accounts used an allowlist, the thief was able to add to it, and if they had none, the money could go anywhere. Whether any of these accounts had one switched on is not public.

That second route is what the exchanges’ additional controls are built for:

OKX

Alongside the allowlist, a separate new-address lock blocks withdrawals to a newly added recipient for 24 hours.

Crypto.com Exchange

A 24-hour hold applies to newly whitelisted addresses, and switching the feature off takes another 24 hours to take effect.

Kraken

The Global Settings Lock blocks new withdrawal addresses and changes to protected settings. Lifting it means waiting out a delay the user chose, unless they set up a Master Key beforehand, a separate credential that can override the wait.

None of these touches a wallet that is already on the list. A lock that slows new addresses still lets anyone with the right keys use an old one.

Swapped Out of Freezable USDC Within Hours The withdrawals left as USDC, which its issuer, Circle, can freeze at any address. ETH has no issuer, and DAI has no freeze function, so converting was the thief’s first job.

Shortly before midnight UTC on November 1, a fresh wallet began selling stablecoins through UniswapX, an auction in which trading firms compete to fill orders. In about four hours it sold $62.98 million in USDC and USDT for 27,553 ETH, roughly $2,286 per coin. Another branch of the funds went into DAI. Bitquery saw no Circle freeze during the sale or at its check on Monday, and says it does not know whether anyone asked Circle to act.

At 13:47 UTC on November 2, $78.27 million still sat on Ethereum in addresses Bitquery ties to the thief, most of it beyond any issuer’s reach:

What the remaining funds were held in

ETH · $68.9MNo issuer to freeze it

DAI · $5.6MNo freeze function

USDC · $3.7MCircle can freeze it

About $30.5 million had already left. The largest exit, $8.12 million, went to a KuCoin deposit address that Bitquery believes is the pooled account of Kyrrex, a European exchange. LI.FI, a bridge and swap router, took $4.34 million, part of it through one-time order wallets that analytics firm TRM tags as Wagyu, a service that swaps into Monero. FixedFloat, an instant exchange that requires no account, took $1.32 million.

Seeing the ETH on Ethereum gives the victim no way to move it back. What can still be reached depends on parties with power over their slice: Circle over the remaining USDC, KuCoin and Kyrrex over whose account the deposit credited, and the instant exchanges over who placed the orders.

What Would Settle the Access Question Kraken, which paid 178 of the withdrawals, can confirm who owns the account and what happened inside it. Three records would test Bitquery’s theory: when the four new addresses were added and whether a lock or delay applied at the time; whether the withdrawals came through a logged-in session or through API keys with withdrawal rights; and whether any security setting changed in the hours before 12:25 UTC on November 1.

If those logs show the new addresses went through because a waiting period was switched off, the lesson moves toward account settings. If the settings were intact and the money still moved through old wallets, the wallet-key reading gets stronger. The nearest public signal is narrower: whether Circle freezes the 3.74 million USDC still held, nearly all of it in five wallets, before the thief moves it.

Check Who Can Spend From Every Saved Address For anyone holding large exchange balances, the trace argues for auditing a withdrawal list by keyholder rather than by address. For each saved destination, the question is which phone, laptop, browser extension or service can sign for it today, and whether that same device also holds the exchange login. Bitquery’s point is that one break-in on such a device opens both.

The defences it suggests follow from that: a hardware key for logging in and for the wallets on the allowlist, the new-address waiting period switched on, and the same watch on allowlisted wallets as on the account itself. A payment landing in a wallet you stopped using is a warning sign. Coindoo found a similar gap when old wallets were drained after traders stopped using a bot: an address you no longer think about can still have someone able to spend from it.

$106 million stolen from EU entity, ZachXBT excludes Lazarus link
USDC USD Coin
CoinGecko News
Original source text
An unnamed entity in the European Union reportedly lost over $106 million following an unauthorized withdrawal from multiple accounts on centralized cryptocurrency exchanges. The incident, which occurred on Sunday, involved the theft of USDC and USDT stablecoins and has amplified security concerns in the industry, coming just days after a record-setting hack at Binance.

ZachXBT tracks attackers’ laundering trailOnchain investigator ZachXBT, who is known for uncovering cryptocurrency scams and major hacks, disclosed the breach on Monday through his Telegram channel. ZachXBT identified 11 Ethereum addresses involved in moving the stolen funds and noted that the attacker used a complex series of laundering steps.

According to ZachXBT, the thief first converted the USDC and USDT into Ethereum, then utilized instant exchanges to rapidly swap assets, moving the proceeds into Monero, a cryptocurrency favored for its privacy features. The attacker also bridged funds across multiple blockchain networks, further complicating efforts to track and recover the assets.

Mini dictionary: Instant exchanges are platforms that allow users to swap one cryptocurrency for another quickly, usually requiring minimal identity verification, making them popular for rapid conversions. Monero is a privacy-focused cryptocurrency that obscures transaction details such as senders, receivers, and amounts, which makes it especially attractive to those seeking to launder or hide funds.

This laundering strategy reflects tactics previously seen in other major hacks, but ZachXBT stated that the indicators point away from involvement by North Korea’s Lazarus Group.

ZachXBT expressed with “a high degree of confidence” that the EU theft is not linked to Lazarus Group. He cited unique laundering patterns and multiple technical indicators as the basis for his assessment, distinguishing this attack from previous North Korean-linked incidents.

Comparison with Binance hack and industry responseThe European theft follows closely on the heels of the Binance attack, in which hackers stole approximately $6.4 billion from the world’s largest cryptocurrency exchange last Thursday. The scale of the Binance hack prompted a swift response from stablecoin companies: Tether froze stolen USDT on Ethereum within 37 minutes, and Circle froze $823 million in stolen USDC, ultimately securing around 44% of the hacked funds, according to blockchain analytics firm Elliptic.

IncidentDateAmount StolenVictimFunds FrozenEU Entity HackSunday (Nov. 1)$106 millionUnnamed EU entityUnknownBinance HackThursday$6.4 billionBinance$823 million (Circle USDC), USDT (Tether) frozenZachXBT did not specify whether any of the stolen assets from the EU entity were frozen by stablecoin issuers. Swapping funds out of USDC and USDT is often intended to avoid asset freezes, as these companies have the authority to block certain transactions and seize compromised tokens.

Cascade of exchange attacks and mounting concernsThe EU hack is part of an escalating wave of security incidents affecting cryptocurrency exchanges worldwide. On Tuesday, Brazilian exchange Mercado Bitcoin reported a $40 million loss and temporarily suspended withdrawals. In addition, BTCPay Server, a company providing crypto payment processing solutions, warned merchants to shut down their servers following reports of hot wallet attacks.

These incidents underscore a challenging period for the cryptocurrency industry, highlighting vulnerabilities in both centralized and decentralized systems. As hackers employ increasingly sophisticated tactics and move funds across various platforms and blockchain networks, exchange operators and regulators face mounting pressure to enhance security measures and monitor laundering activity.

Elliptic, a blockchain analysis firm, noted that issuing companies were able to freeze nearly half of the stolen assets in the Binance case within minutes, while much remains unknown regarding the latest EU theft.

Third Quarter 2026 Total Revenues Increased 32% Y/Y to $1.025 billion; Growth Driven by 44% Increase in Metabolic Conditions Y/Y, and 12% Increase in Skeletal Conditions Y/Y

Updates Full-year 2026 Guidance to Reflect Order Timing Uncertainty and Impact of Two Acquired In-process Research and Development (IPR&D) Charges

Recently Announced the Addition of a New Investigational Fabry Asset to Clinical Portfolio

PDUFA Action Date of May 30, 2027 for VOXZOGO® for the Treatment of Hypochondroplasia (HCH)

Conference Call and Webcast Scheduled Today at 4:30 p.m. ET

, /PRNewswire/ -- BioMarin Pharmaceutical Inc. (NASDAQ: BMRN) today announced financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2026.

"BioMarin delivered a strong quarter, with revenue growth of 32%, driven by a more diversified portfolio following the acquisition of Amicus Therapeutics earlier this year and increased demand for our medicines from patients around the world. For the first time, quarterly revenue exceeded $1 billion, a milestone for BioMarin," said Alexander Hardy, President and Chief Executive Officer of BioMarin. "We are building on this achievement by continuing to expand our pipeline through focused business development. We are excited to add our newest asset, an investigational treatment for Fabry disease, which has the potential to become the first subcutaneous enzyme therapy for this condition. With this fourth new asset added to our pipeline in 2026, we are following through on our commitment to build sustainable growth for the future." Mr. Hardy added, "As we approach 2027, we are well positioned for our next chapter of growth, including the potential launch of VOXZOGO in hypochondroplasia and the continued execution of our financial and innovation strategy."

2026 Business and Pipeline Highlights

Innovation

BioMarin is accelerating innovation by expanding its pipeline through business development. Four transactions in 2026 have added development programs from preclinical through Phase 3:BMN 450 (HM15421/GC1134A) is an investigational long-acting enzyme replacement therapy (ERT) that has the potential to be the first subcutaneous ERT for Fabry disease. Now in a global Phase 1/2 clinical study, it could extend BioMarin's reach beyond patients with genetic variants amenable to GALAFOLD®.
 BMN 440 (ALE1) for hypophosphatasia (HPP) is a potential first-in-class oral therapy for HPP. The Phase 1/2a study in healthy volunteers and adults with HPP is ongoing, with data expected in 2027.
 BMN 430 for ReNU syndrome has the potential to be a first-in-disease antisense oligonucleotide (ASO) medicine for ReNU syndrome, a serious, rare neurodevelopmental condition with no approved targeted therapies. Preclinical studies are underway to identify a lead ASO candidate.
 BMN 820 (DMX-200) for focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) is a first-in-class oral CCR2 inhibitor for which BioMarin holds exclusive U.S. commercialization rights. The Phase 3 ACTION 3 trial is fully enrolled, with pivotal data expected in 2028.
 Today, BioMarin announced that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has set a PDUFA target action date of May 30, 2027 for its supplemental NDA to expand the use of VOXZOGO for the treatment of HCH, the first potential targeted therapy for the condition. BioMarin also announced today that the European Medicines Agency (EMA) validated its submission for the approval of VOXZOGO to treat HCH.
 BioMarin's application for full approval of VOXZOGO in children with achondroplasia is under review by the FDA, with a PDUFA target action date of February 28, 2027. The application includes long-term safety and efficacy data, such as final adult height and clinical outcomes beyond linear growth.
 The Phase 2/3 study for BMN 333, BioMarin's long-acting C-type natriuretic peptide (CNP) for achondroplasia, continues to enroll on track. Dose-response data from this study is expected in 2027.
 In October, five-year results from the PROPEL open-label extension study with POMBILITI® + OPFOLDA® were presented in a late-breaking presentation at the World Muscle Society Annual Congress. In adults with late-onset Pompe disease, POMBILITI + OPFOLDA demonstrated durable motor function outcomes and relative stabilization of pulmonary function. This included people who had received enzyme replacement therapy for a mean of 7.6 years before enrolling. No new safety signals were identified.
 For BMN 351, BioMarin's Phase 1/2 candidate for Duchenne muscular dystrophy, the company expects to provide a program update by year-end.Growth

In the first full quarter as part of BioMarin, GALAFOLD and POMBILITI + OPFOLDA delivered strong quarterly revenue, contributing $152 million and $49 million, respectively. The number of patients treated with GALAFOLD and POMBILITI + OPFOLDA increased by approximately 13% and 69% Y/Y, respectively. POMBILITI + OPFOLDA uptake benefited from supply constraints for other Pompe therapies.
 Metabolic Conditions revenue grew 44% Y/Y in the third quarter of 2026 and 26% Y/Y year-to-date. Growth was driven by the additions of GALAFOLD and POMBILITI + OPFOLDA and by higher VIMIZIM® revenue. The number of patients on therapy increased across all BioMarin-marketed Metabolic Conditions therapies, Y/Y.
 VOXZOGO revenue grew 12% Y/Y in the third quarter of 2026, and the number of children treated with VOXZOGO globally increased 17% Y/Y. As of the end of the quarter, children with achondroplasia in 58 countries around the world were being treated with VOXZOGO. More than 75% of VOXZOGO revenue was generated outside of the U.S., and a large international order previously expected in the third quarter is now anticipated in the fourth quarter. In the U.S., the majority of new patient starts were in children under the age of two. Value Commitment

BioMarin continued to integrate Amicus in the third quarter, realizing accelerated cost synergies to enable investments in initiatives to drive future growth of GALAFOLD and POMBILITI + OPFOLDA. BioMarin continues to expect approximately $280 million of GAAP cost synergies (approximately $220 million on a Non-GAAP basis) to be fully realized in 2028.
 On August 30, 2026, the company announced the global settlement of all outstanding claims with Ascendis Pharma A/S related to its product Yuviwel. As part of the agreement, Ascendis will pay BioMarin a royalty equal to 20% of net sales of Yuviwel in the U.S., retroactive to the first commercial sale, and 18% of net sales in the European Union, Brazil and South Korea until May 2030.Third Quarter 2026 Financial Highlights

Total Revenues for the third quarter of 2026 were $1,025 million, an increase of 32% compared to the same period in 2025, primarily driven by revenues from GALAFOLD and POMBILITI + OPFOLDA, which were acquired on April 27, 2026, as well as 18% revenue growth in VIMIZIM due to timing of large international orders. In the quarter, VOXZOGO revenue also increased by 12% due to new patients initiating therapy. These increases were partially offset by a decrease in NAGLAZYME®  revenue due to timing of large international orders.
 GAAP Net Loss  increased to $123 million compared to $31 million for the same period in 2025. The increase was primarily driven by the acquisition of Amicus Therapeutics (Amicus), including intangible asset amortization, interest expense from debt issued to finance a portion of the transaction, amortization of inventory fair value step-up, and integration and restructuring costs. The increase was also attributed to acquired in-process research and development (IPR&D) charges recorded in the quarter in connection with the acquisition of Alesta Therapeutics (Alesta). These increases were partially offset by revenue growth as described above.
 Non-GAAP Income for the third quarter of 2026 increased to $45 million compared to $22 million for the same period in 2025. The increase was primarily driven by revenue growth, partially offset by higher acquired IPR&D charges and higher interest expense, as described above. The increases were also partially offset by higher sales and marketing spend related to GALAFOLD and POMBILITI + OPFOLDA. Financial Highlights (in millions of U.S. dollars, except percentages and per share data, unaudited)

Forward-Looking Non-GAAP Financial Information

BioMarin does not provide guidance for GAAP reported financial measures (other than revenue) or a reconciliation of forward-looking Non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP reported financial measures because the company is unable to predict with reasonable certainty the financial impact of changes resulting from its strategic portfolio and business operating model reviews; potential future asset impairments; gains and losses on investments; and other unusual gains and losses without unreasonable effort. These items are uncertain, depend on various factors, and could have a material impact on GAAP reported results for the guidance period. As such, any reconciliations provided would imply a degree of precision that could be confusing or misleading to investors.

Updated 2026 Full-Year Financial Guidance (in millions, except EPS amounts)

Revenue: Total Revenues, Metabolic Conditions, and VOXZOGO guidance updated to reflect uncertainty in the timing of multiple orders from a single international customer.Non-GAAP Diluted EPS: BioMarin expects the Alesta acquisition and BMN 450 license agreement to result in total pre-tax charges of approximately $320 million and $83 million, respectively, for the full year 2026, consisting of the acquired IPR&D charges and ongoing operating expenses, representing an unfavorable impact of approximately $1.55 and $0.32, respectively, to both GAAP Diluted EPS and Non-GAAP Diluted EPS for the full year 2026.Item

Non-GAAP Information

The results presented in this press release include both GAAP information and Non-GAAP information. Non-GAAP Income is defined by the company as GAAP Net Income (Loss) excluding amortization, stock-based compensation expense and, in certain periods, certain other specified items, as detailed below when applicable. The company also includes a Non-GAAP adjustment for the estimated tax impact of the reconciling items. Non-GAAP Cost of Sales (COS), Non-GAAP R&D expenses and Non-GAAP Selling, General and Administrative (SG&A) expenses are defined by the company as GAAP COS, GAAP R&D expenses and GAAP SG&A expenses, respectively, excluding stock-based compensation expense and, in certain periods, certain other specified items, as detailed below when applicable. Non-GAAP Operating Margin percentage is defined by the company as GAAP Income (Loss) from Operations, excluding amortization of intangible assets, stock-based compensation expense and, in certain periods, certain other specified items, divided by GAAP Total Revenues. Non-GAAP Diluted EPS is defined by the company as Non-GAAP Income divided by Non-GAAP Weighted-Average Diluted Shares Outstanding. Non-GAAP Weighted-Average Diluted Shares Outstanding is defined by the company as GAAP Weighted-Average Diluted Shares Outstanding, adjusted to include any common shares issuable under the company's equity plans or convertible debt in periods when they are dilutive under Non-GAAP. Non-GAAP synergies is defined by the company as Amicus' legacy labor and external spend cost reductions, excluding the impact of stock-based compensation.

BioMarin regularly uses both GAAP and Non-GAAP results and expectations internally to assess its financial operating performance and evaluate key business decisions related to its principal business activities: the discovery, development, manufacture, marketing and sale of innovative biologic therapies. BioMarin also uses Non-GAAP Income internally to understand, manage and evaluate its business and to make operating decisions, and compensation of executives is based in part on this measure. Because these Non-GAAP metrics are important internal measurements for BioMarin, the company believes that providing this information in conjunction with BioMarin's GAAP information enhances investors' and analysts' ability to meaningfully compare the company's results from period to period and to its forward-looking guidance, and to identify operating trends in the company's principal business.

Non-GAAP financial measures are not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to comparable GAAP measures and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. Investors should note that the Non-GAAP information is not prepared under any comprehensive set of accounting rules or principles and does not reflect all of the amounts associated with the company's results of operations as determined in accordance with GAAP. Investors should also note that these Non-GAAP financial measures have no standardized meaning prescribed by GAAP and, therefore, have limits in their usefulness to investors. In addition, from time to time in the future there may be other items that the company may exclude for purposes of its Non-GAAP financial measures; likewise, the company may in the future cease to exclude items that it has historically excluded for purposes of its Non-GAAP financial measures. Because of the non-standardized definitions, the Non-GAAP financial measure as used by BioMarin in this press release and the accompanying tables may be calculated differently from, and therefore may not be directly comparable to, similarly titled measures used by other companies.

The following tables present the reconciliation of GAAP reported to Non-GAAP adjusted financial information:

LSK: Lisk Chain Has Closed
LSK Lisk
CoinGecko News
Original source text
← Back to blog Company · Nov 2026

The Lisk Chain shut down on 2 November 2026. It marks the official end of the Lisk Chain, and the beginning of the new Lisk: the modern finance platform for businesses. LSK continues as the loyalty token of Lisk, on Ethereum.

If you were redirected here from the Lisk Portal or the Lisk documentation, those services have closed as part of the shutdown.

How the shutdown works The Lisk Chain shut down in stages. User-facing services closed first, on 2 November 2026, including the Lisk Portal and the Lisk Bridge. The rest of the chain is then switched off behind them.

After the shutdown, the ~5.2 million LSK left in the staking rewards contract will be burned. This covers rewards that were never assigned and rewards that were earned but never claimed. It further reduces LSK's total supply, following the 100 million LSK burn in September.

Thank you to everyone who built on, staked on and used the Lisk Chain over the years.

What continues: Lisk For ten years, Lisk built onchain alongside the developers, stakers and holders who made it what it is. Everything we learned in that time now goes into the new Lisk, the modern finance platform for businesses.

Modern finance means running money operations on one system, with stablecoins and traditional currencies working together. Lisk brings accounts, payments and approvals into one workspace:

Accounts: separate accounts for each team, entity or project, funded in fiat or stablecoins, with one consolidated view. Payments: bank transfers (ACH, wire and SEPA) and stablecoin payments in one queue, to more than 100 countries. Approvals: shared rules on every payment, so each transaction carries its own approval record. Portfolios: crypto holdings with live prices and their own approval rules. Lisk is in Early Access. Visit Lisk.com and read Introducing the New Lisk to learn more, or request access.

Ten years brought us to today, and what lies ahead has never been more exciting.

What continues: LSK LSK continues as the loyalty token of Lisk, and its home is Ethereum.

Total supply is 300 million, with 0% inflation. From 2027, businesses will earn and spend LSK on Lisk. The token fact sheet and where to buy LSK are on the Investors page.

Frequently asked questions Is Lisk shutting down? No. Only the Lisk Chain, the Ethereum layer 2 network Lisk operated, has shut down. Lisk continues as the modern finance platform for businesses.

Why did the Lisk Chain close? Lisk now focuses entirely on the modern finance platform for businesses. Closing the Lisk Chain is part of that focus.

When did the Lisk Chain shut down? The Lisk Chain shut down on 2 November 2026, when user-facing services such as the Lisk Portal and Lisk Bridge closed. The rest of the chain is then switched off behind them.

Is LSK being discontinued? No. LSK continues as the loyalty token of Lisk, on Ethereum, with a total supply of 300 million.

What happens to the LSK in the staking rewards contract? Around 5.2 million LSK remain in the staking rewards contract. They will be burned after the Lisk Chain is fully shut down, which permanently reduces LSK's total supply. LSK that users staked is not burned.

I still have assets on the Lisk Chain. What can I do? The Lisk Portal and Lisk Bridge are now closed. We cannot guarantee the recovery of any assets left on the Lisk Chain. We plan to introduce a manual claims process in January 2027, and will share more details then.

I built a project on the Lisk Chain. Where do I go now? Celo has committed to supporting projects that migrate from the Lisk Chain. Projects can get in touch with the Celo team through the migration interest form.

Lisk is in Early Access Accounts, payments and approvals for your business, in one workspace.

Original source text
Long-standing blockchain project Lisk has officially ended its blockchain operations after 10 years of existence, moving on to a new financial platform for businesses.

Lisk announced on Nov. 2 the official shutdown of its blockchain after 10 years of existence. This marks the end of one of the longest-lived blockchains in the crypto world.

"Today, the Lisk Chain has officially shut down," the project said in an X post.

With the blockchain shutdown, Lisk has ended its Portal and Bridge services. The rest of the blockchain's infrastructure is also being powered down.

The blockchain shutdown marks a significant milestone in the evolution of the Lisk project, which was launched in 2016 and has seen several changes over the years.

The Lisk team, however, has noted that the shutdown of the blockchain does not spell the end of the Lisk project.

The company is transforming into a new financial platform, one that enables businesses to manage both traditional currencies and stablecoins in one place.

"For 10 years, Lisk built onchain with developers, stakers and holders that made Lisk what it is," Lisk said.

Lisk to burn 5.23 million LSK tokensThe Lisk project has made it clear that its native token, LSK, will continue to exist even as the blockchain closes shop.

According to the team, LSK will still exist on Ethereum as the loyalty token for its new business financial platform.

In addition, the project announced plans to burn approximately 5.23 million LSK tokens left in its staking rewards pool.

The total figure includes unallocated rewards to users as well as unclaimed earned rewards.

The LSK tokens are set to be burned, permanently removing them from circulation. This will also lower the overall supply of the cryptocurrency.

This comes after a large burn of LSK tokens in September. At the time, Lisk burned 100 million LSK tokens after making the decision to wind down its decentralized autonomous organization (DAO) through a governance vote.

The burn event reduced the LSK token's supply from 400 million to 300 million LSK.

Lisk intends to introduce new use cases for LSK in 2027. This will allow businesses to earn rewards in the token and use LSK for platform fees.

Gold rises to near $3,950 as traders brace for US midterm election
GOLD Zlato
FMP Forex News
Original source text
Gold price (XAU/USD) rises to around $3,950 during the early Asian session on Tuesday. The precious metal rebounds as falling oil prices have tempered inflation worries. Traders will closely monitor US midterm elections later this week.

Tehran stated on Monday that discussions between the US and Iran to end their eight-month conflict are still ongoing. This follows several days of negotiations between Iranian officials and Qatari mediators, which resulted in revised proposals but failed to make a major breakthrough, per Reuters.

Iran's Foreign Ministry spokesperson Esmaeil Baghaei said the plan Iran had submitted in September to end the war remained the focus of discussions. However, Baghaei also confirmed remarks attributed to Foreign Minister Abbas Araqchi on Saturday suggesting that the proposal could be condensed.

“Weaker oil prices have provided some relief … in terms of reducing inflation concerns. But the market is still expecting a December rate hike from the Fed, although those odds have lessened a little bit over the last couple of trading sessions,” said Peter Grant, vice president and senior metals strategist at Zaner Metals.

Tuesday’s US midterm elections raise the prospect of a broader narrative swing back to inflation and deficit woes. This, in turn, could boost a safe-haven asset such as Gold in the near term. Polling shows Democrats are favored to win the House, while a majority in the Senate is more uncertain.

Markets are now pricing in nearly 73% odds of a US rate hike in December, down from 80% a week ago, according to the CME FedWatch Tool.

Gold support offsets oil headwinds as regional risks persistAnalysts at HSBC highlight that “a stable US Dollar should help temper risks to gold,” which they say “remains well supported by diversification flows from central bank purchases, as well as geopolitical and fiscal uncertainty.” In contrast, the bank cautions that “we expect oil prices to remain volatile as they respond to changes in the news flow,” leaving the energy complex as a persistent source of uncertainty.

In equities, HSBC notes that “South Africa benefits from a bullish outlook for gold, but geopolitical uncertainty remains a drag on the region,” while “elevated oil prices remain headwinds for the region.” The bank adds that EM Asia “is resilient given its strategic role in the global AI supply chain, but we have become more selective,” reflecting a more discriminating stance despite the region’s structural strengths.

At the sector level, HSBC argues that “the sector is benefitting from multiple positive trends that are lifting demand and prices,” pointing out that “valuations are the lowest among all sectors, with many large companies reporting strong cash flows and relatively high dividends.” However, the bank warns that “regional conflicts are likely to continue for the rest of the year, with damaged infrastructure delaying a swift return to normality,” suggesting that geopolitical risks will remain an important overlay on otherwise supportive fundamentals.

Technical Analysis: Gold keeps a bearish vibe under the 100-day SMAIn the daily chart, XAU/USD remains under clear bearish pressure, holding below the 20-period Bollinger Bands simple moving average (SMA) and the 100-day SMA, which together hint at a capped tone while price consolidates near recent lows. The Relative Strength Index (14) at 36.88 stays just above oversold territory, suggesting weak downside momentum rather than outright exhaustion, leaving room for further softening while these overhead averages are not reclaimed.

On the topside, initial resistance is located at the Bollinger midline around $4,090, with the 100-day SMA at $4,210 and the upper Bollinger band near $4,255 forming a wider supply zone should any recovery attempt gain traction. On the downside, the lower Bollinger band at $3,920 offers the nearest support; a decisive break beneath this floor would expose fresh lows, while holding above it would keep XAU/USD confined to a bearish range beneath the clustered moving-average resistance.

Gold FAQs Gold has played a key role in human’s history as it has been widely used as a store of value and medium of exchange. Currently, apart from its shine and usage for jewelry, the precious metal is widely seen as a safe-haven asset, meaning that it is considered a good investment during turbulent times. Gold is also widely seen as a hedge against inflation and against depreciating currencies as it doesn’t rely on any specific issuer or government.

Central banks are the biggest Gold holders. In their aim to support their currencies in turbulent times, central banks tend to diversify their reserves and buy Gold to improve the perceived strength of the economy and the currency. High Gold reserves can be a source of trust for a country’s solvency. Central banks added 1,136 tonnes of Gold worth around $70 billion to their reserves in 2022, according to data from the World Gold Council. This is the highest yearly purchase since records began. Central banks from emerging economies such as China, India and Turkey are quickly increasing their Gold reserves.

Gold has an inverse correlation with the US Dollar and US Treasuries, which are both major reserve and safe-haven assets. When the Dollar depreciates, Gold tends to rise, enabling investors and central banks to diversify their assets in turbulent times. Gold is also inversely correlated with risk assets. A rally in the stock market tends to weaken Gold price, while sell-offs in riskier markets tend to favor the precious metal.

The price can move due to a wide range of factors. Geopolitical instability or fears of a deep recession can quickly make Gold price escalate due to its safe-haven status. As a yield-less asset, Gold tends to rise with lower interest rates, while higher cost of money usually weighs down on the yellow metal. Still, most moves depend on how the US Dollar (USD) behaves as the asset is priced in dollars (XAU/USD). A strong Dollar tends to keep the price of Gold controlled, whereas a weaker Dollar is likely to push Gold prices up.

BBB Foods Same-Store Sales Jump 20.5%: Rapid Earnings Reaction
TBBB BBB Foods
FMP Stock News
Original source text
BBB Foods Inc. (TBBB +0.65%) grew third-quarter revenue 40.3% to about 28.4 billion Mexican pesos, with most of the gain coming from stores open at least a year. Shares rose about 5% in after-hours trading. The Mexican grocery discounter is adding stores faster than a year ago, but its older stores still do most of the work, and their growth is what's widening margins.

Key NumbersRevenue: 28.4 billion pesos, up 40.3% year over year.Same-store sales: up 20.5%, compared with 17.9% growth a year ago.Gross margin: 16.7%, up from 16.2%.Net profit: 23 million pesos, versus a loss of 1.4 billion pesos.What It MeansA hard discounter lives on thin margins, and rent, staff, and trucks cost about the same whether a store sells a little or a lot. When existing stores' sales climb this fast, those fixed costs get spread over far more revenue, which pushed store operating costs down to 9.8% of revenue. The release doesn't say whether more shoppers or bigger baskets drove the gain.

TBBB BBB Foods$56.97+$0.37 (+0.65%)

NYSE · As of 4:00 PM ET 11/02/26

The swing to a profit owes more to shrinking stock pay than to operations, because a large 2025 share grant is expensed most heavily in its early quarters. Profit was also thin: Without a 97 million-peso currency gain, pre-tax profit would have fallen short of the quarter's tax bill.

Cash is the clearer signal. BBB Foods sells its groceries before it pays suppliers, so growth produces cash rather than eating it. Third-quarter operating cash flow was about 2.5 times spending on stores and equipment, a cushion that depends on suppliers keeping today's terms.

What to Watch NextWatch whether same-store sales hold near 20% as openings continue, since that pays for the margin gains. The release gives no outlook, so the fourth-quarter report is the next real check.

With respect to the Company’s 2026 financial outlook, the Company is not able to provide a reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures to GAAP because it does not provide specific guidance for the various extraordinary, nonrecurring, or unusual charges and other certain items. These items have not yet occurred, are out of the Company’s control and/or cannot be reasonably predicted. As a result, reconciliation of the non-GAAP guidance measures to GAAP is not available without unreasonable effort and the Company is unable to address the probable significance of the unavailable information.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release contains financial information calculated other than in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”). The non-GAAP measures used in this press release are Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Earnings Per Share (EPS), and Free Cash Flow. The Company believes that these non-GAAP measures are useful to investors and other external users of its consolidated financial statements in evaluating the Company’s operating performance as compared to that of other companies. Reconciliations of these non-GAAP measures to the nearest comparable GAAP measures can be found immediately following the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows included in this press release.

Adjusted EBITDA represents net income before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization, as further adjusted for certain charges consisting of unrelated legal and consulting fees, stock-based compensation, severance, restructuring charges, acquisition costs, inventory step up related to Venco Venturo, CEO transition costs, debt modification expense, and loss on extinguishment of debt. The Company uses Adjusted EBITDA in evaluating the Company’s operating performance because it provides the Company and its investors with additional tools to compare its operating performance on a consistent basis by removing the impact of certain items that management believes do not directly reflect the Company’s core operations. The Company’s management also uses Adjusted EBITDA for planning purposes, including the preparation of its annual operating budget and financial projections, and to evaluate the Company’s ability to make certain payments, including dividends, in compliance with its senior credit facilities, which is determined based on a calculation of “Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA” that is substantially similar to Adjusted EBITDA.

Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Earnings Per Share (calculated on a diluted basis) represents net income and earnings per share (as defined by GAAP), excluding the impact of stock based compensation, product liability settlement costs, severance, restructuring charges, acquisition costs, inventory step up related to Venco Venturo, CEO transition costs, debt modification expense, loss on extinguishment of debt, and certain charges related to unrelated legal fees and consulting fees. Management believes that Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Earnings Per Share are useful in assessing the Company’s financial performance by eliminating expenses and income that are not reflective of the underlying business performance.

Free Cash Flow is a non-GAAP financial measure that we define as net cash provided by (used in) operating activities less the acquisition of property and equipment. Free Cash Flow should be evaluated in addition to, and not considered a substitute for, other financial measures such as Net Income and Net Cash Provided By (Used in) Operating Activities. We believe that free cash flow represents our ability to generate additional cash flow from our business operations.

Prediction: This Will Be SpaceX's Stock Price by the End of 2027
SPCX SpaceX
FMP Stock News
Original source text
Space Exploration Technologies (SPCX +1.23%) has had an eventful first four months on the stock market. But the company hasn't made much money for investors who have held on since its debut. As of writing, SpaceX's shares are trading at $134 each, below the company's IPO price of $135. Still, SpaceX boasts attractive opportunities. How will the company perform over the next year? Let's try to determine what its share price might be by the end of 2027.

Image source: The Motley Fool.

Revenue and profit driversSpaceX's financial results have been strong this year. In the third quarter, the company's revenue grew by 161% year over year to $14.6 billion. It also posted a net income of $4.4 billion -- or $0.35 per diluted share -- substantially better than the prior-year quarter's net loss of $1.1 billion (or $0.36 per share).

SpaceX's annual revenue run rate is now at $58.4 billion. Analysts expect the company's total revenue for the current fiscal year to be $48.93 billion (according to Yahoo! Finance), and its earnings per share (EPS) to be $0.22, as of this writing. What about next year? Analysts are projecting $180.37 billion in revenue and $4.03 in EPS, on average.

Note that at current levels, SpaceX is trading at about 33.3x projected 2027 earnings, which seems reasonable for a company growing as fast as it is. But there is a complication. These projections may already be baked into the share price. After all, despite excellent financial results for as long as it has been public, SpaceX stock has gone nowhere.

The question, then, is whether SpaceX will perform roughly in line with, above, or below expectations over the next 12 months. Let's consider the bullish case first. SpaceX's artificial intelligence segment, dubbed Super Intelligence (SI), is booming. The company has more demand for AI compute capacity than it is willing to rent out. Third-quarter SI revenue soared 830% year over year to $7.6 billion. Perhaps the market is underestimating the company's potential in this industry.

The SI segment could maintain outstanding growth provided SpaceX adds more compute deals to its portfolio. Connectivity is also performing. SpaceX's push into additional regions within this market could deliver significant subscription growth. Then there is SpaceX's space segment.

This unit isn't profitable, but progress on the company's Starship rocket could be key over the next year. If Starship launch cadence improves meaningfully within the next year, and there are no significant issues with the rocket -- regulatory or otherwise -- that could be a massive catalyst for the stock.

SPCX Space Exploration Technologies$136.37+$1.65 (+1.23%)

NASDAQ · As of 4:00 PM ET 11/02/26

There are plenty of possible outcomesThe bull scenario might convince the market that SpaceX's prospects beyond 2027 are very attractive, allowing the company to continue to command high earnings multiples. Assuming the fiscal year 2026 and 2027 predictions are correct, along with a constant forward P/E (based on the following year's earnings) and projected 2028 EPS of $7.01, the stock could soar by about 74% to $233 by the end of 2027.

In my view, that's too optimistic. Several factors might hinder SpaceX's prospects. Revenue and earnings growth could normalize after their blistering recent pace. Launch cadence for SpaceX's Starship might not reach the levels the market expects, and competition across the company's business will intensify. That last point is important.

Nobody should expect one of SpaceX's competitors to catch up to the company in the space launch or connectivity markets within the next year. Still, if they make significant progress, the rocket company might no longer command the same kind of valuation premium. If we make just one change to our model and assume, instead, that the company's forward P/E drops to 25, SpaceX could gain 31% by the end of 2027. Under this scenario, the company's share price will be $175.25.

That's much closer to what may happen, in my view, but here's the problem: SpaceX's prospects look attractive, but they are also incredibly uncertain. Beyond the variables already discussed, there is the very real possibility that SpaceX will seek to acquire Tesla (TSLA +1.00%) within the next year. We can't be sure, and there is no official announcement yet.

But CEO Elon Musk himself has said it would be a good idea and has indicated the formation of independent special committees to weigh the pros and cons of a potential merger between the two companies.

Will a merger be announced? If it is, how much regulatory scrutiny and public backlash will it attract? Nobody knows the answer to these questions yet. With all this uncertainty, SpaceX may well deliver outstanding returns through the end of 2027 or beyond, but it might also be a wealth destroyer. I'd like a much bigger margin of error before buying the stock.

This Has Been the Best-Performing Stock in the "Magnificent Seven" This Year, and It's Not Even Close
AAPL Apple
FMP Stock News
Original source text
The "Magnificent Seven" stocks are a collection of the leading tech stocks in the world. But this year, they haven't been doing well. The S&P 500 has surprisingly been outperforming nearly all of them. It's particularly surprising given that the broad index is up only 11%. It's doing well, but that doesn't seem like a high bar for stocks to exceed.

Yet, there's only one stock in the Magnificent Seven that has been able to beat it. Ironically, it's the company that has been a bit of a laggard when it comes to artificial intelligence (AI): Apple (AAPL -1.83%). Year to date, it's up around 25%.

What's behind its rally, and could it go even higher?

Image source: Getty Images.

Apple's cautious spending may be winning over risk-averse investorsWhile many tech companies are in an aggressive arms race in developing AI chatbots and models as quickly as possible to stay ahead of the competition, Apple's been far more modest by comparison. In fact, customers have become frustrated with its slow pace with respect to AI offerings and its iPhones lagging behind rival phones.

As other stocks in the Magnificent Seven have been spending hundreds of billions of dollars and ramping up spend, Apple modestly forecast $14 billion in capex for its entire fiscal year, unchanged from a year ago. It's perhaps no coincidence then, as investors have become more concerned about high levels of AI spend, that Apple's been the stock of choice among tech investors.

Having a more sensible, calculated, and less aggressive approach to capex has endeared it to the broader market.

AAPL data by YCharts

Is Apple stock still heading higher?Apple has a terrific business, but the problem is that its stock is now trading at an exceptionally high premium -- close to 40 times its trailing earnings. That's a particular concern for a business that in recent years hasn't often generated more than single-digit growth. There have been times when it's fared better, but also times when it's even performed worse.

Paying such a high premium for fast, high-growth business may be justifiable, but that's not representative of what Apple is. It's a safe, stable tech stock, but it's not what I'd consider to be fast-growing by any means.

Investors who buy the stock at such elevated levels should tread carefully, as it could be vulnerable to a correction in the near future, especially if its upcoming results prove to be underwhelming. Apple is a quality stock to hold for the long haul, but I wouldn't buy it at its current price, as its future returns may be minimal, and at worst, the stock could experience a significant decline given its inflated value.
