According to The Block, the DeFi Education Fund, Paradigm, Uniswap, and a16z led the submission of an amicus brief supporting the legal challenge by the crypto industry against Illinois' Digital Asset Tax Act. Aave Labs, Chainlink Labs, Figment, Phantom, Hyperliquid Policy Center, Solana Policy Institute, Stand With Crypto, and others co-signed the brief.The brief argues that the law is overly broad, imposes unfavorable tax treatment on transactions involving blockchain technology, and fails to clearly distinguish between taxable digital asset businesses and software and network infrastructure that helps users trade independently. It is estimated that 2.64 million residents in Illinois hold digital assets, ranking fifth in the nation.The law was signed by Illinois Governor JB Pritzker in June 2026 and imposes a 0.2% tax on digital asset transactions, originally set to take effect in January 2027 but postponed to July 2027. The Blockchain Association, Crypto Council for Innovation, and The Digital Chamber had previously filed a lawsuit against Illinois regarding this matter.

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.

The Federal Reserve's interest rate hike combined with the central bank's increase of the foreign exchange deposit reserve ratio to 6% has led several banks to raise their USD fixed deposit rates again, with some products exceeding 4%.In October, the average benchmark performance of USD wealth management reached 4.1%. The interest rates of foreign banks have risen significantly, while the listed rates of state-owned banks remain around 2.8%, resulting in an inverted yield curve.

Julian Lafarge, Chief Market Strategist at Barclays Private Bank, stated that despite the uncertainty surrounding Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang's future, the uncertain returns on AI investments, and rising financing costs testing market confidence, investors should continue to participate in the AI market. Lafarge believes that AI is not a bubble but a technological revolution that will impact all industries, although its commercialization and infrastructure development cannot happen overnight.Lafarge pointed out that Nvidia is referred to as the "central bank of AI trading," but even if the company changes its CEO, it does not mean that the entire AI industry chain's trading needs to be re-evaluated or renegotiated. He compared the potential leadership transition at Nvidia to previous management transitions at Microsoft, Alphabet, and Amazon, arguing that a successor taking over does not necessarily weaken corporate value.However, Barclays lists interest rates and the financing environment as major risks that could disrupt the market. As the scale of AI infrastructure investment expands, the market's focus is shifting from whether the demand for computing power is real to whether the massive capital expenditures can generate sufficient returns. Data center construction also faces bottlenecks such as power access, equipment installation, and commercial operation cycles, while expectations of tightening Federal Reserve policies may also raise corporate financing costs and depress long-term cash flow valuations.Lafarge emphasized that the trillions of dollars in AI investment commitments cannot quickly translate into actual computing power delivery, and there will be significant divergence in investment returns among companies. Tighter financing conditions may change the pace of industry investment and competitive landscape, but it does not mean that the long-term demand for AI infrastructure will disappear. Barclays still prefers to maintain exposure to AI investments until there are clear signs of a significant slowdown in industry growth momentum.

Coinbase's EU policy head Roeland Van der Stappen stated that the EU's efforts to tighten regulation on DeFi may push crypto users towards platforms with less investor protection. He told Cointelegraph that regulated crypto platforms might limit or even eliminate access to DeFi services as a result. He mentioned that rules aimed at protecting investors will ultimately push activities towards the least protected areas.In September, the European Securities and Markets Authority, in response to the EU Commission's MiCA consultation, suggested establishing a new category of regulated crypto services for companies providing access to DeFi protocols for customers. The European Banking Authority urged the Commission to explore new regulations for crypto lending that include suitability testing as one of the options. Van der Stappen noted that extending such tests to other DeFi services could treat simple stablecoin exchanges and leveraged lending equally, despite the different risks involved; lending, liquidity provision, and on-chain exchanges would be the most affected activities.He warned that restricting access through regulated platforms could fragment DeFi liquidity into smaller pools, resulting in worse trading prices for EU users and fostering isolated "walled garden" services that direct users towards providers outside the EU with less protection. An Adan-Ipsos survey in 2026 showed that 49% of French crypto buyers preferred accessing DeFi through exchanges, while 14% preferred personal wallets. Chainalysis reported that the slight decline in crypto activity in Germany was mainly due to reduced activity on decentralized exchanges; overall crypto activity in the EU grew by 2.2% in the 12 months leading up to June 2026.

According to on-chain analyst Yu Jin, after Anthropic determined a pricing range of $70 to $78 per share (corresponding to a market capitalization of $1.26 trillion to $1.405 trillion), the largest short position on Hyperliquid for Anthropic continues to increase, with the short position value reaching $70.5 million and an unrealized profit of approximately $1.41 million.Currently, the pre-market contracts for ANT on Hyperliquid are priced at about $104, which is approximately 33% higher than the upper limit of the issuance range of $78. Yu Jin also provided two addresses suspected to be related to this short position (0xecc8..., 0x0b42...).In terms of background, Anthropic plans to issue 825 million shares at a price of $70 to $78 per share, with the financing scale estimated at about $64 billion based on the upper limit; the company previously stated that it expects to finalize the issuance price next Wednesday and begin trading next Thursday, with the IPO already receiving several times oversubscription. The pre-market price is significantly higher than the issuance range, and if the final price is set at the upper limit of the range, the pressure on the short position will continue to accumulate.

A proposal by the U.S. Department of Labor to allow 401(k) retirement plans to allocate alternative assets such as cryptocurrencies has been submitted to the White House Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs for final review on Thursday. The proposal aims to simplify the process for retirement plans to offer alternative investments and provide certain legal protections for employers and plan administrators. The version released by the Department of Labor in March did not specify which digital assets could be included, nor did it set a minimum market capitalization threshold, but it requires administrators to assess six factors: performance, fees, liquidity, valuation, benchmarks, and complexity.Teresa Goody Guillén, managing partner of Bellementis PLLC, stated that Bitcoin and Ethereum may be adopted first due to their mature markets and investment products, but altcoins will not be automatically excluded; plan administrators must demonstrate that their investment choices meet standards of prudence, liquidity, valuation, and investor protection. Bernardo Brites, co-founder and CEO of Trace Finance, noted that some smaller tokens may struggle to meet historical performance and benchmark requirements. The proposal does not limit crypto investments to ETFs or managed funds, but Guillén expects such products may emerge before direct holdings.
