According to Yonhap News Agency, data from the Financial Supervisory Service’s electronic disclosure system shows that Samsung Electronics’ CEO and Head of the DX Division, Noh Tae-moon, bought 3,000 of the company’s common shares on the local market that day, at an average price of 210,000 won per share, totaling around 630 million won. Following the purchase, his holdings rose from 124,280 shares to 127,280 shares. The report points out that the purchase came amid Samsung Electronics’ recent sharp stock price drop after the U.S. midterm elections, which is being interpreted as a sign of his commitment to responsible management. Noh previously bought about 3,045 shares at 230,000 won per share at the end of July. On the same day, Samsung Electronics’ stock closed 6.35% lower at 188,700 won.

Robinhood co-founder and CEO Vlad Tenev hosted a roughly 45-minute public AMA on X, themed "Let's talk Robinhood Chain", engaging directly with developers and the community to share the latest progress and long-term vision for Robinhood Chain. During the AMA, Tenev confirmed that stock tokens have launched on Robinhood Chain and are open for developers to build on, while emphasizing "this is just the beginning, more to come". He noted that stock tokens are unique on-chain building blocks that are fully permissionless, allowing anyone to develop around them, and that AI agents can already interact directly with these stock tokens. When explaining the decision to build its own public chain, Vlad stated that after in-depth research of existing ecosystems, the team found no chain fully met their specific needs. Robinhood Chain’s goal is to become the preferred chain for real-world assets (RWA) and the meme sector. He further stressed that RWA and crypto assets are converging and will eventually integrate, bringing exponential growth opportunities to the entire crypto space. On the product front, Vlad revealed Robinhood has begun displaying on-chain content across multiple products: including a dApp browser and trending Robinhood Chain tokens in Robinhood Wallet, while the main app’s search and Crypto sections now feature popular token displays.

According to Lookonchain's monitoring, a whale address has sold 1 million UNI tokens, worth $7.32 million, over the past two days. The whale received 20.32 million UNI tokens from Uniswap's UNI Timelock wallet more than a year ago, at which point the holding was valued at $139.4 million.

According to The Straits Times, Singaporean police announced that their fifth joint crackdown with multiple digital payment token service providers and foreign law enforcement agencies, carried out between September 1 and October 31, helped more than 383 victims avoid losses exceeding SGD 17.4 million in crypto-related fraud funds. The operation was led by the Police’s Cyber Security Command, with partners including Coinbase, Coinhako, DTCPay, Gemini, Independent Reserve, OKX, StraitsX, and Upbit. It leveraged on-chain analysis tools from Chainalysis and TRM Labs, plus customer data from trading platforms, to conduct phone and on-site interventions against scams such as official impersonation, investment fraud, and job fraud. For cross-border efforts, the Cyber Security Command shared intelligence with the U.S. Federal Bureau of Investigation, Australia’s New South Wales Police Force, and the Canadian Anti-Fraud Centre, identifying 32 overseas victims and intervening before they suffered further losses. Police noted they will continue to expand public-private partnerships and cross-border intelligence sharing. The fourth round of operations announced in September had previously helped over 355 people avoid losses of approximately SGD 8.94 million.

According to South Korean media outlet Digital Asset, filings with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) show Mastercard secured two U.S. patents on local time November 3, covering "digital asset transaction pre-processing" and "private transaction processing method and system" respectively. The first patent analyzes the on-chain historical behavior of payers and payees before actual transfers, and calculates changes to the sender’s own risk score post-hypothetical transaction, letting users decide whether to proceed. The second handles transactions within a private group of approved participants, with a central approval system verifying balances and authorizations, preventing double-spending and unauthorized transfers without public disclosure of transaction details. The report cites Mastercard’s view that on-chain counterparty identities and reputations are difficult to verify, and accidental dealings with wallets linked to money laundering or terrorist financing could trigger regulatory scrutiny, asset freezes and other risks. The two technologies share a focus on pre-transaction risk control and constraints on information disclosure and approval authority. Mastercard launched its Stablecoin Security service for stablecoin payments on October 19; it remains unclear if these patents will be directly integrated into the product.
