ZachXBT: Losses from Suspected EU Organization Attack Rise to $133 Million, Attacker Continues Cross-Chain Fund Transfers

According to a Financial Times report, China’s Securities Regulatory Commission (CSRC) recently held meetings with investment banks and issued verbal guidance to banks and investment banks, requiring a suspension of corporate initial public offerings (IPOs). Large-scale share reductions by existing shareholders have also been temporarily halted until market stability is restored. Previously, Chinese regulators had already rolled out measures including restricting share reductions and encouraging stock buybacks. On Monday, the CSRC, the People’s Bank of China (PBC), and the State Administration of Financial Supervision also held meetings with securities firms and fund management companies to discuss stock market stabilization measures, such as cutting the re-lending rate for stock buybacks and share additions from 1.25% to 1% and expanding swap facility operations. The report noted that China’s IPO fundraising volume this year has exceeded 292 billion yuan, the highest level since 2023. A suspension of IPOs and large-scale share reductions could impact financing activities in China’s equity market. It should be noted that the relevant measures are currently based mainly on informal window guidance disclosed by insiders, and regulators have not yet officially confirmed them publicly.

Beating AI News, November 3 — China’s National Development and Reform Commission (NDRC) announced it will accelerate comprehensive legislation on artificial intelligence (AI), establishing safety standards and ethical guidelines covering the entire lifecycle of AI from R&D and application, spanning data, computing power, algorithms and specific use cases. AI developers and operators will be required to disclose safety risks in a timely manner and proactively report incidents and vulnerabilities. While tightening regulation, the policy will also leave room for enterprises to test and iterate. The new rules will set a reasonable transition period, and support industries to establish "regulatory sandboxes" — controlled environments allowing enterprises to test new technologies. The sandboxes will come with dedicated application, testing, use and exit mechanisms, with regulatory rules subject to regular evaluation and timely adjustment. Beyond model and technical safety, regulation will also focus on AI’s impact on individuals, including monitoring risks of AI displacing jobs, improving social security systems, and preventing user addiction to AI and emotional dependence. Deepfakes, algorithmic discrimination and privacy breaches are also included in the governance scope. China introduced public-facing measures for generative AI services in 2023, and added comprehensive AI legislation to the State Council’s work plan in May this year. Regulatory sandboxes have already been piloted in some AI service sectors.

Jay Hatfield, CEO and portfolio manager at Infrastructure Capital Advisors, stated that the U.S. Federal Reserve should end its "irrational interest rate hike policy", noting monetary policy should focus on core inflation rather than inflation driven by oil prices. Hatfield added that the Fed should recognize its policies primarily impact interest rate-sensitive sectors, which are dominated by the housing market. He urged the Fed to undertake fundamental reforms to its forecasting models, arbitrary 2% inflation target, and its "severely flawed inflation metrics". Additionally, Infrastructure Capital Advisors is closely monitoring the research outputs of the Fed’s related working groups, and looks forward to these results addressing some of the aforementioned fundamental flaws.
