Cleveland Federal Reserve President Hamrick said the Fed needs to bring monetary policy to a restrictive level to push inflation back to its 2% target. She noted that the current policy stance means inflation could take longer than acceptable to fall, hence "more tightening is needed." Hamrick added that further interest rate hikes may still be required, though the timing is undecided. She favors "smaller, more frequent" adjustments to help businesses and households plan ahead. She pointed out that corporate input costs are rising, and an increasing number of firms are passing these costs to consumers. If prices are no longer constrained by demand, inflation could rise further or stay elevated. She highlighted that the biggest inflation risk is the development of an "inflation mindset" among individuals and businesses, who gradually accept higher inflation levels—this would make it harder for the Fed to return inflation to target, and some signs of this have already emerged. When discussing the rise in U.S. Treasury yields, Hamrick said it is mainly driven by factors including economic growth expectations, market repricing of Fed policy, fiscal pressures, and large-scale bond issuance. She noted that the data center investment boom is boosting growth, but the current financial environment still needs further tightening to help inflation decline. Hamrick also emphasized that the Federal Reserve's independence is "always of utmost importance." (Jinshi)

A judgment released by the UK National Archives shows that the UK High Court ruled on the "Blue Sky Grid Rui Case" on October 12, holding that property rights claims filed by Chinese investors over the involved Bitcoin should be governed by Chinese law rather than UK law. The case involves over 61,000 Bitcoin, a key component of the billions of pounds in criminal proceeds recovered by UK law enforcement. The judgment states that the investment scam in question was carried out in China between 2014 and 2017, with total funds involved amounting to approximately 40.228 billion yuan (around ￡4.1 billion). The funds were used to purchase assets including Bitcoin, and the involved Bitcoin was later transferred to the UK. UK police seized relevant equipment and some access keys in 2018, and the assets subsequently recovered included over 61,000 Bitcoin. The court ruled that the investors' locations, the place where false statements were made, the location of fund payments, and the original purchase site of the Bitcoin were all primarily in China, so the relevant property rights should be determined in accordance with Chinese law. The court also rejected the investors' arguments seeking to establish rights under UK law and relevant asset tracing rules. It should be noted that this ruling only addresses which country's law applies to the relevant claims, and does not finally determine whether each investor owns the involved Bitcoin, nor does it decide on the final distribution of the assets. Specific rights under Chinese law and relevant evidence will need to be reviewed in subsequent proceedings.

Bitcoin rose to $84,254 at one point on Monday before pulling back, with a drop of as much as 2.2%. Uncertainty over the prospects of a Russia-Ukraine energy ceasefire and incidents such as oil tanker attacks in the Strait of Hormuz have amplified market concerns about energy supply. Brent crude climbed to $107.25 per barrel during trading, its highest level since September 16, while WTI crude broke above $94 per barrel. The U.S. will release September’s CPI and PPI data this week, and the oil price rally has further stoked fears of an inflation rebound. Former Goldman Sachs chief foreign exchange strategist Robin Brooks argues that, given traffic through the Strait of Hormuz has improved somewhat, current oil prices may be pricing in excessive risk premiums. In trading, QCP Capital noted that Bitcoin’s options market shows a mix of cautious and bullish expectations: traders are taking defensive positions while still retaining bets on an upward price breakout. The firm stated that if BTC decisively breaks above $87,000, its next target could be $94,000. On-chain and exchange liquidity data show there is approximately $180 million in sell-side liquidity around $84,500, while buy-side support lies near $82,000.

Liquid Capital founder Li Lihua stated in a post that despite Bitcoin’s rebound during its recent decline, BTC has broken below the mid-band (the 20-period moving average) on the 4-hour timeframe, amid a weaker U.S. stock market and rising oil prices. Currently, except for the weekly timeframe, Bitcoin shows weakness across all lower timeframes: 15-minute, 1-hour, 4-hour, and daily, suggesting the correction may not be over yet. Li Lihua noted that during Bitcoin’s earlier correction from around $86,000, multiple consolidations and attempts to break through the strong resistance at $87,000 had him concerned; the brief break below the key level of $84,000 during the correction also easily triggered market sentiment swings. Traders need to remain patient and avoid trying to time the market constantly. The cost of making bad trades is higher than missing out on opportunities, so investors should stick to their trading principles and not be distracted by short-term fluctuations.
