After Nvidia founder Jensen Huang admitted to an extramarital affair, the outside world began to calculate the potential property division if he were to divorce. According to Forbes, Jensen Huang currently has a net worth of approximately 155.2 billion dollars. Under California's community property system, assets acquired during the marriage are generally divided equally between the spouses. If this wealth is entirely considered community property, his wife Lori Huang could theoretically receive about 77.6 billion dollars, equivalent to over 500 billion yuan.The two met before Nvidia was founded. Jensen Huang met 19-year-old Lori when he was 17 at Oregon State University, where both were electrical engineering students and lab partners. Jensen Huang recalled that there were about 250 students in the entire program, with only 3 being female. To pursue Lori, he suggested they do homework together every Sunday and promised he could help her get all A's; he would complete the assignments in advance and show her the answers when they met.Jensen Huang also promised Lori that he would become a CEO before turning 30. The two married in 1985 and have been together for 41 years. In 1993, Jensen Huang founded Nvidia and became CEO at the age of 30. Lori was originally a chip engineer but later left the workforce to take care of their children. Jensen Huang has publicly stated that his wife has been involved in every step of Nvidia's development, accompanying him to almost every press conference and important speech. He even joked with company executives that since their marriage, his wife has handled almost all household affairs, including signing documents and managing family finances, to the extent that he doesn't even know the address of their home and never personally pays the bills.

Renowned developer and T3 Code founder Theo discovered that although Anthropic's newly released Fable 5.2 is more powerful, the API equivalent usage available to subscription users is significantly lower. Theo has been tracking the actual request data of Claude Code for a long time. According to his estimates, for the same monthly subscription fee of $200 for Claude Ultra, using Opus 5.5 would yield an API usage equivalent to about $15,000 per month; switching to Fable 5.2 would only provide about $3,000, a difference of nearly 5 times.Anthropic stipulates that Ultra users can use a maximum of 50% of their total quota for Fable each week. Even if the entire quota is not used, as long as Fable reaches its limit, users must switch to other models or pay extra to continue using it. Theo estimates that if Opus 5.5 is used fully in a week, approximately 1,200 interaction rounds and 230 task sessions can be completed. If the Fable quota is exhausted first and then switched to Opus, the total number of interaction rounds would drop to about 900, although the number of completed task sessions might be slightly higher since Fable can sometimes complete tasks in one go without repeated communication.The API unit price of Fable 5.2 has decreased by 20% compared to the previous generation, with input and output tokens costing $8 and $40 per million, respectively, but it is still twice that of Opus 5.5. Anthropic reminds users that Fable will consume subscription quotas faster than other Claude models. Currently, Anthropic is offering eligible subscription users 1 to 3 opportunities to reset their Fable quota, with the number of resets depending on the subscription duration. Each reset can return the Fable quota consumed in the current week, allowing users to continue using it without waiting until the next week.

Analyst Jukan from Citrini stated on social media that Samsung's current stock performance is lagging behind SK Hynix, seemingly because Samsung's shareholder return plan is either not as generous as initially expected or still carries uncertainty. Against this backdrop, there is a saying circulating in South Korea that Samsung's management is deliberately avoiding bullish statements, involving tax considerations for the company's controlling family member, Chairman Lee Jae-Yong.More specifically, Lee Jae-Yong's mother, Hong Ra-hee, gifted Samsung shares to her son. It has been reported that the gift tax he needs to pay is calculated based on the average closing price during the four-month period around the gift date of November 12, specifically from September 12, 2026, to January 12, 2027. Therefore, the Samsung controlling family has no motivation to drive up the stock price before January of next year.

Blackstone Group President Jon Gray refuted billionaire Ken Griffin's claim a few days ago that there is a bubble in artificial intelligence (AI). Gray stated on Thursday, "When you think of a bubble, you think of building capacity first and then hoping for demand to appear.But in the AI field, you are building capacity while hoping to keep up with demand." He said this is a "completely different situation" compared to phenomena like the telecom bubble of the 1990s. He mentioned the AI consulting company Ode, which Blackstone co-founded with Anthropic. "We simply cannot keep up with customer demand," he said. "Demand is growing almost parabolically."

According to monitoring by PeckShield, hackers minted 19 million THEO tokens on the Base chain, then exchanged them for 700.8 ETH (approximately 1.76 million USD), and transferred the ETH to the Ethereum mainnet via a cross-chain bridge.As a result of this incident, the THEO token has fallen by 92% in the past 24 hours.

The founder of the venture capital firm Theory Ventures, Tomasz Tunguz, stated that the fastest-growing market globally is not AI, but the crypto market formed by real-world assets (RWA) on the blockchain. He noted that RWA enables stocks and commodities like oil and copper to be traded on-chain, taking on almost all public price discovery during commodity exchange closures.Tunguz mentioned that RWA, through perpetual contracts for stocks, provides pre-IPO pricing for Anthropic, OpenAI, SpaceX, and Cerebras, and brings international access channels. He cited data indicating that the perpetual price of Cerebras before its IPO differed from the Nasdaq opening price by less than 1.3%, with SpaceX having a perpetual open interest of approximately $215 million and a cumulative trading volume of about $2.2 billion before its IPO. A report from Pantera Capital in September 2026 showed that the trading volume of perpetual contracts for stocks on Hyperliquid and Lighter reached $67.8 billion in June, which is 16 times that of tokenized stock spot trading.He also stated that stablecoins have become one of the top ten buyers of U.S. Treasury bonds, surpassing China, Norway, and Switzerland, and are used to settle transactions of the aforementioned tokenized assets. Institutions such as JPMorgan, HSBC, BlackRock, Citigroup, Goldman Sachs, Franklin Templeton, Robinhood, and Stripe are advancing RWA.

Axios reported that allies of Trump are attacking Dario Amodei, the CEO of the artificial intelligence company Anthropic, as a representative of the "doomsday" narrative surrounding artificial intelligence and one of the founders of the effective altruism movement. Sources say that during the midterm elections, allies may target Anthropic when countering his warnings about AI safety; due to his political stance and concerns about AI safety, he is seen as an easy target. This is concerning for investors as the company is preparing for an anticipated record-breaking initial public offering.The report states that a memo began circulating internally within the White House this week, attempting to portray effective altruism as a fringe, cult-like group detached from mainstream America, with Axios claiming to have obtained the document. The memo was written by a Trump political advisor not currently employed by the White House, stating that effective altruism "has established a doomsday pipeline for artificial intelligence," placing Amodei at the foundational position of the movement, while also mentioning his sister, Daniela Amodei, president of Anthropic, referring to these connections as "Anthropic nodes." A source close to the government said that Amodei embodies an ideology and globalist innovation path that contradicts the president's "America First" agenda.Anthropic has been distancing itself from effective altruism. Daniela Amodei stated in a 2025 Wired report that she does not agree with the term. Dario Amodei has insisted in interviews that he is not a member of the movement and has promoted the benefits of artificial intelligence.

Cryptocurrency analyst Chen Mo posted that Binance's USDe briefly deviated to $0.92 today, and the last incident on October 11 was also related to USDe, while the on-chain price has remained stable.Chen Mo stated that the order book for USDe on CEX is very thin, and it supports USDe as collateral for opening positions. The risk transmission from October 11 started here, but afterwards, Binance included the actual redemption price of USDe into the price index, no longer relying solely on the order book quotes, theoretically preventing a repeat of the October 11 incident.

Uniswap team member Niko posted that after Robinhood Chain's recent large-scale innovations drove the market up, other chains have begun to replicate its ecological projects. Some KOLs and venture capital institutions continue to claim that Robinhood Chain is in decline and are guiding users towards similar projects on other chains.Robinhood Chain's current daily trading volume still exceeds 1 billion dollars, and the trading scale of stock tokens is also growing.

According to CoinDesk, the on-chain financial platform Theo announced the launch of a yield-bearing tokenized silver product thSLVR, supported by over $40 million in active leases, expanding its commodity financing business from gold to silver. This token allows holders to maintain exposure to silver prices while passing on the lease income paid by institutional borrowers to the holders.Theo stated that the silver supporting thSLVR will be leased to mature institutional counterparties under standard market terms, with credit exposure guaranteed by the parent company. The product is launched in a beta version, initially targeting institutions and whitelist investors, with plans to expand access later. Silver has experienced significant volatility this year, reaching a historical high of $121.79 per ounce in January, followed by a 41% drop over three days, and falling to a low of $54.74 in July, recently hovering around the mid-$60 range.Theo was founded by former traders from Optiver and IMC and has previously offered yield-bearing tokenized gold and U.S. Treasury products. The silver leasing will also expand the underlying assets of its yield-bearing stablecoin thUSD. According to RWA.xyz data, the market size for tokenized commodities is approximately $4.9 billion, covering 130 products. The London 1-month silver lease rate briefly rose to about 39% in October 2025, while the historical norm is below 1%; the market expects a supply gap in silver for the sixth consecutive year in 2026, with a gap of approximately 46.3 million ounces.

Famous gold bull and Bitcoin bear Peter Schiff posted that he is skeptical about today's sharp rise in MSTR, which he believes is primarily driven by short covering, and reiterated his "death spiral" argument.Even though Bitcoin's temporary rebound has slightly extended the survival period of Strategy, his long-term bearish stance remains unchanged.

Anthropic announced that the Claude Mythos Preview model has made breakthroughs in cryptographic research, discovering improved attack methods against the post-quantum digital signature candidate HAWK. HAWK is a post-quantum signature candidate solicited by NIST to combat quantum computer attacks, which has already passed two rounds of expert review. However, Claude reduced the effective key strength of HAWK-256 from 2^64 to 2^38 in just 60 hours, significantly lowering the theoretical cost of cracking. HAWK has not yet been deployed in practice, and this attack currently does not affect any production systems.Claude also discovered an improved attack against 7-round AES, achieving a speed increase of 200 to 800 times. During the research process, Claude independently completed literature reviews, mathematical reasoning, and experimental validation with limited guidance from cryptographers. The HAWK attack took about 60 hours and had an API cost of approximately $100,000; the AES attack was completed independently by Claude, which generated about 1 billion tokens before proposing core innovative ideas. Anthropic researchers then spent hundreds of hours validating the results. Anthropic stated that AI models can now help identify significant flaws in cryptographic algorithms, and the cryptography community may face bottlenecks similar to those in the software vulnerability field—AI-generated research results far exceed human verification capabilities. Anthropic has collaborated with academic institutions to launch the CryptanalysisBench benchmark and coordinated disclosures with NIST authors and government partners. The research team has achieved preliminary results on algorithms such as LEA and Serpent-128. Anthropic warns that as AI capabilities improve, actual attacks against deployed systems may be discovered in the future, necessitating the establishment of response mechanisms in advance.

Vitalik posted on the X platform stating that a new type of "high-level programming language" worth trying is a language compiled to Lean (or HOL, etc.), focusing on making it as easy as possible for humans to read definitions and theorems. Rather than proofs, because proofs only need to be correct, the key lies in the definitions and theorems themselves. The envisioned use is that AI outputs a large segment of proof, and the reader needs to understand as easily as possible which precise claims have actually been proven in these outputs.

Dragonfly partner Haseeb responded on Twitter to OpenZeppelin co-founder Manuel Aráoz's previous pessimistic view on DeFi security, stating that with models like GLM 5.2, Fable, and GPT 5.6 now online and actively used by attackers, DeFi has not experienced the anticipated "hacker apocalypse."Chart data shows that based on current year-to-date figures and operating rates, the annualized amount stolen in DeFi by 2026 is approximately $1.89 billion, with a cumulative theft of about $986 million this year, which is lower than the levels of 2025 and still within historical ranges.Haseeb believes that the deeper change currently is that while the number of hacker attacks has increased, the scale of individual attacks has decreased more rapidly, with attackers increasingly targeting smaller protocols and abandoned projects, while larger protocols have completed more security enhancements, thus the overall safety of funds has not significantly worsened.

According to Cointelegraph, the on-chain capital market platform Theo announced an investment of $20 million into Fidelity International's dollar digital liquidity fund (FILQ) through the Swiss digital asset bank Sygnum, becoming the first crypto-native platform to allocate to this tokenized fund.The fund is a tokenized dollar liquidity product that primarily invests in a diversified portfolio of short-term money market instruments. Data shows that Theo's allocation represents a significant proportion of the current on-chain managed assets of the fund, reflecting that institutional funds are continuously flowing into tokenized U.S. Treasury and cash management products.
