According to Cointelegraph, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) of Thailand has released a draft proposing that regulated cryptocurrency operators set a daily deposit and withdrawal limit of 5 million Thai Baht (approximately 148,000 USD) for each customer regarding stablecoins. This limit will be calculated separately for each operator, applying to both deposits and withdrawals. The regulatory body stated that this move aims to curb money laundering, cybercrime, and the evasion of cross-border fund transfer regulations.The draft also prohibits the transfer of stablecoins in and out of third-party wallets, requiring operators to verify that customers own the accounts or wallets used for deposits and withdrawals. Operators must also comply with the Travel Rule, which involves collecting and sharing information related to transfers and using blockchain analysis tools to identify wallet addresses associated with suspicious activities.Additionally, the draft requires cryptocurrency exchanges to disclose their list of market makers and specify the assets that these market makers provide liquidity for; cryptocurrency brokers are not allowed to use liquidity providers for trading pairs of stablecoins with Thai Baht; a minimum threshold of 3 million Thai Baht will apply to certain over-the-counter transactions. This draft continues the consultation initiated by the Thai SEC in September, during which it had already proposed limits on stablecoin transfers and recommendations for strengthening the regulation of cryptocurrency operators.

According to CoinDesk, Ripple's XRP Ledger lending system designed for banks and payment companies has gained support from 3 additional validators since mid-October, bringing the total votes to 22, still 7 votes short of the 29 required to launch. Both the system and its accompanying SingleAssetVault amendment need to obtain 29 votes each within two consecutive weeks to activate.As of Wednesday's data, "LendingProtocol" and its first patch each have 22 votes in support, while the "SingleAssetVault" for creating a funding pool has 23 votes. The design requires depositors to deposit XRP or other tokens into the vault, which loan brokers lend out for a fixed term, with borrowers not needing to provide collateral; the system relies on off-chain underwriting and risk management. Additionally, developers are still advancing related work before the voting, with a code merge request planned for November 4 to add a third lending amendment.

Ethereum developer Marchhill submitted the draft EIP-8437, proposing to propagate proof wrapper data through the eth/73 protocol and introducing an optional mode that allows transactions to submit raw signatures to the aggregator without pre-generating STARK proofs.This proposal supports the direct propagation of certified packages with transactions and performs independent checks of specified programs in resource-constrained sandboxes to verify witness data. The new program does not require the development of native adapters for each signature scheme separately. Additionally, the proposal plans to limit the batch queue size, clean up expired transactions, and recheck records before formally generating proofs to support failure retries.Currently, the proposal is still in the Draft stage and has not yet been merged. The developer pointed out that VM and key binding consistency verification, cryptographic verification, and performance testing are still incomplete, and benchmarking has not yet been conducted.

Tianfeng International Securities analyst Ming-Chi Kuo stated that Jensen Huang's importance to NVIDIA lies in his ability to transform technologies deemed feasible by engineers into products that the company must invest resources in, take risks on, and deliver. He believes this provides the supply chain with strong order visibility and a willingness to cooperate with aggressive specification upgrades; this move will also force competitors to follow suit, thereby driving technological upgrades and supply chain investments across the entire AI industry.Kuo mentioned that compared to providing order visibility to the supply chain, deciding on and implementing aggressive specification upgrades is more challenging. Jensen Huang does not need to be the person within NVIDIA who understands new technologies such as HVDC, CPO/NPO, or CCL/PTFE the best; his value lies in weighing strategy, organization, technology, and supply chain simultaneously, and making decisions and allocating resources quickly. He indicated that based on the information currently available, it is difficult for Jensen Huang to step back completely; if so, the actual approach may be to gradually reduce NVIDIA's reliance on Huang's personal decisions while preparing a succession plan. Two things worth observing in this process are whether NVIDIA can continue to develop new products and technologies as efficiently as before, and how competitors will respond. He stated that supply chain research will be an important basis for judging the direction of AI technology and investment.

The independent Solana validator alliance Layer33 responded to the adjustments of the Solana Foundation Delegation Program (SFDP) rules. The alliance is composed of independent validators, aiming to push for independent operators to collectively hold at least 33% of the network's stake. Layer33 stated that it acknowledges the foundation's remarks that the network scale has exceeded the initial launch plan, the validator pool has matured, and it faces challenges that were not envisioned in the early stages, believing that the delegation mechanism should evolve accordingly. The organization indicated that the new rules replace long-term contributors with short-term participants for a duration of 12 months.Layer33 mentioned that the foundation, in subsequent statements, indicated that participants from the Alpenglow community cluster provided crucial assistance and should receive direct rewards; part of the related adjustments is to make such rewards possible. The organization stated that the SFDP currently holds over 10 million SOL in remaining delegation, and providing substantial rewards to cluster participants does not require dismantling the existing plan; the foundation expressed that the intended recipients of the rewards are precisely the group prioritized for exit. Layer33 also noted that validators remaining in the program will see their SFDP delegation decrease from approximately 85,000 SOL to 55,000 SOL, reducing by about 30,000 to 35,000 SOL; some operators have already shut down nodes and canceled their Breakpoint schedules.Layer33 stated that it does not demand the foundation to change direction but rather to advance in the correct order and update the requests made in the previous open letter: to suspend weekly exit batches until communication regarding not abandoning contributors improves; to supplement details on rewards for Alpenglow community cluster participants; to disclose the analysis behind the 300,000 SOL external staking graduation line, the cap of 100 validators, the 12-month term, and the 55,000 SOL delegation scale; to publish an impact assessment on the current validator pool, including how about 75% of members are identified as non-contributors; to conduct formal consultations with existing SFDP members with processes and timelines; to disclose contribution-based delegation standards and application processes, running parallel with discretionary delegation; and to explain why the program places more emphasis on new validators rather than contributors who have operated and improved the Solana network for many years.

NVIDIA shareholders are filing a securities class action lawsuit against NVIDIA and its founder Jensen Huang, accusing them of misconduct that misled a large number of investors. This case stems from Jensen Huang's recent admission of an extramarital affair on the company's website. U.S. President Donald Trump continues to support Jensen Huang. On November 9, local time, Trump publicly backed Huang at a White House press conference, stating, "I believe him (Jensen Huang)."In response, the attorney for the securities class action lawsuit, Laurence Rosen, stated that Trump's claim that Huang was unaware and NVIDIA's board's assertion that national security was not compromised, even if true, cannot determine the outcome of the case.The issue in this lawsuit is whether the statements made on October 9, 2025, were misleading, and existing facts support this conclusion. Currently, the lawsuit is only against NVIDIA and Jensen Huang. Rosen indicated that it has not yet been determined whether other defendants, including members of the NVIDIA board, will be added.
