The dollar has held onto its recent gains, trading near a two-month high against a basket of currencies, and should remain strong after investors sharply reduced their expectations for U.S. rate cuts, though further appreciation is limited, Turner, an ABN AMRO foreign exchange analyst, said in a report. Data showed that U.S. money markets expect the Fed to cut interest rates by less than 50 basis points at its last two meetings this year and may not make further significant adjustments. The bank doubts that U.S. short-term interest rates will rise sharply from now on. (Jinshi)

Banq, which filed for bankruptcy last year, has had its application dismissed by a U.S. judge who ruled that the filing was an effort to protect the company and its executives from ongoing lawsuits by creditors. Banq and its chairman, Jon Jiles, were sued by creditor N9, alleging Jiles failed to fulfill his fiduciary duties. The judge hearing the case, Natalie M. Cox, called the bank's bankruptcy filing a "bad faith" strategy to "gain advantage in pending litigation" rather than reorganize. Judge Cox wrote in her ruling that the bankruptcy proceedings were a strategy to protect Banq and its founder, Jon Jiles, from an investor lawsuit filed by N9, the company's main creditor with a $3 million stake. N9 accused Jiles of failing to fulfill his fiduciary duties and putting the interests of Prime Trust, of which he is the founder and managing member, above those of Banq.

Regarding the "Morpho lost about $230,000 due to oracle configuration errors", Morpho responded on X: "The protocol provides a permissionless infrastructure and an open market for risk curation. Although the risk management layer occasionally makes mistakes, the underlying protocol remains secure and resilient. We will continue to equip managers (curators) with powerful tools to reduce such possibilities and impacts. This isolated issue stems from an unlicensed market and a misconfigured price oracle. As far as we know, the risk manager has recovered most of the funds and is working to ensure that all lenders are repaid. Looking forward, we believe it is important to distinguish between potential smart contract vulnerabilities and mistakes in the risk management layer, just as misconfigurations on Uniswap are not considered attacks on the protocol itself." Earlier today, Chaos Labs founder omer said on the X platform that the PAXG/USDC market on Morpho lost about $230,000 due to oracle configuration errors. Specifically, the Oracle SCALE_FACTOR on Morpho was misconfigured and failed to take into account the difference between USDC (6 decimal places) and PAXG (18 decimal places), which resulted in a 12-digit inflation of the PAXG price. The attacker deposited $350 in PAXG and borrowed $230,000 in USDC.

According to Cointelegraph, cryptocurrency-friendly messenger Telegram is set to improve its compliance and communication with regulators in Kazakhstan by establishing a local office. The Ministry of Digital Development, Innovations, and Aerospace Industry announced on October 14 that Telegram has agreed to appoint a local representative and open an office in the Republic of Kazakhstan. Minister Zhaslan Madiyev stated that Telegram’s physical presence in the country would be an important step to increase control over content on the messaging platform. This measure is significant given Telegram’s substantial user base in Kazakhstan. According to Telegram founder and CEO Pavel Durov, 12.5 million Kazakhs, more than half of the nation’s 20 million population, use Telegram each month, marking a 25% increase from 2023. The announcement coincided with Kazakhstan’s officials meeting with the United States Chamber of Commerce and representatives from major US tech companies, including Meta and Apple. During these meetings, Kazakh officials discussed issues related to data protection and combating fraud and fake accounts on social media platforms, such as Meta’s WhatsApp. In the third quarter of 2024, Meta reported blocking 1.2 billion fake accounts globally using artificial intelligence. Madiyev emphasized that the government of Kazakhstan has been closely working with international partners to ensure the safety of Kazakhstanis in the digital space. He noted that the government is actively cooperating with Telegram to promptly remove illegal content and block illicit channels. In accordance with Kazakh legislation, internet platforms such as Telegram, WhatsApp, and TikTok are now required to have a representative in Kazakhstan. Telegram’s decision to open an office in Kazakhstan is part of its broader push for compliance, which comes as Durov faces scrutiny in France over the platform’s handling of illegal activities. Since French authorities indicted Durov on multiple charges in late August, Telegram has enhanced its efforts to combat illicit activity on the messenger app. In September, Durov stated that Telegram was sharing the IP addresses and phone numbers of users who violated the app’s rules by requests of related authorities. The CEO also reported that Telegram has made several updates to its search engine, removing problematic content from search results and using AI to identify illicit content. Telegram’s office in Kazakhstan is apparently one of the company’s first global offices set up to increase compliance. Cointelegraph approached Telegram for a comment but did not receive a response at the time of publication.
