Coinbase Launches Crypto Futures Trading in Europe, Supports Up to 10x Leverage

Beating AI News (Dongcha) reports: After Moonshot AI launched its Kimi K3.1 Pro model, a suspected internal promotional document was exposed. X (formerly Twitter) user Elshayib shared screenshots showing that creators participating in the promotion were required to submit their promotional copy in advance for approval before posting. However, the document explicitly ordered "do not add paid partnership tags", nor include links to Kimi’s official website or tag official accounts. Per X’s platform rules, brand collaborations involving compensation or other material benefits must disclose the paid relationship. The U.S. Federal Trade Commission (FTC) also mandates that creators disclose commercial partnerships to their audiences. The document included multiple sets of promotional copy, such as "Kimi is an open-source version of Opus 5.5 that is 5 times cheaper", "China allows everyone to use Opus 5.5 for free", and "the gap between Chinese open-source models and U.S. cutting-edge models has narrowed to just one month". Elshayib stated he refused to promote according to the templates, and criticized a creator who used the promotional copy. Subsequently, someone sent him a private message requesting he delete the relevant comments, claiming "this could ruin the launch".

US President Trump said the U.S. could launch another small-scale "Operation Epic Fury" against Iran, adding that the country could end the conflict quickly, with the key being choosing to resolve it completely or allowing hostilities to fade gradually. Earlier, The New York Times reported that U.S. and Israeli militaries had drawn up plans to strike Iran again after the U.S. midterm elections, though it remained uncertain whether Trump would approve the move. Meanwhile, the Navy of Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) claimed two supertankers attempting to cross the southern Strait of Hormuz struck mines on Friday, carrying a total of over 4.5 million barrels of crude oil, with their crews abandoning the ships to escape. The claims have yet to be independently verified. According to Reuters, two senior Iranian security officials revealed that if the U.S. and Israel launch another attack on Iran, Tehran has drawn up plans to target undersea communication cables in the Gulf region, and may expand its countermeasures to include hidden military bases. No reports have yet emerged that such strikes have been carried out. The military standoff between the U.S. and Iran continues to escalate, further raising risks to shipping in the Strait of Hormuz and energy and communications infrastructure in the Gulf region.

Beating AI News: Meta’s Chief AI Officer Alexandr Wang said that its personal AI agent Muse will be free for general users, with no current plans to include ads. Meta plans to offer paid services to power users and enterprises, and will collect commissions on shopping transactions facilitated by Muse, though it has not yet announced specific pricing or launch timelines. According to Nikkei News, Muse launched in Japan on October 23. After its North American debut on September 8, the app reached 10 million downloads within six weeks. Wang noted that Meta’s in-house infrastructure, security framework, and data centers are key competitive advantages for Muse. Meanwhile, Meta is ramping up its AI investments, and has raised its 2026 capital expenditure guidance to $135 billion to $145 billion. For Meta, where ad revenue accounts for over 95% of total revenue, converting AI user growth into revenue from subscriptions, enterprise services, and transaction commissions will be critical to the commercialization of its AI business.

According to a report from analysts at LYNX Equity Strategies, SK Hynix has abandoned its Solidigm U.S. IPO plan, blocking its original path to raise funds via the listing to expand U.S. NAND flash production capacity. Analysts note that if the relevant expansion plan had been implemented, it would likely increase global supply and put downward pressure on industry pricing in three years or more; now this potential risk has faded, which is a substantial positive for Micron and SanDisk. Analysts also pointed out that this change mainly affects medium- and long-term supply expectations and does not immediately alter the current market supply-demand pattern. The stock performance of related companies remains influenced by the overall market environment. Intel, meanwhile, faces a minor headwind, as its Ohio campus may lose a potential manufacturing project. On Friday, Micron closed up 2.46%, while SanDisk closed down 1.82%.

The White House recently ordered restrictions on Starshield services used by Ukraine; the Biden administration also previously demanded that SpaceX cut off Starlink services utilized by the Houthi movement and Hezbollah. Meanwhile, Trump administration officials sought to activate Starlink services in Iran following U.S. strikes on the country.
