According to CoinDesk, tech investor and podcast host Jason Calacanis called on investors on Tuesday to sell Bitcoin and pivot to artificial intelligence on the X platform. He predicts that Bitcoin will retest its $57,000 low within the next 12 months and will not set a new all-time high. This level is approximately 28% lower than Tuesday's quote of around $79,600. He argues that Bitcoin has "lost the crowd" and lacks utility beyond serving as a store of value. Furthermore, citing ETF outflows as evidence, he asserts that this trend will continue.
According to SlowMist, its security personnel discovered during routine threat intelligence monitoring that the Udesk customer service system-related script udeskApi.2026-10-16.cached.js has been implanted with a malicious loader. The loader hides the address using hexadecimal encoding and asynchronously loads the remote script deeps.js (originating from udeskqlobal[.]com; note that the domain starts with the letter 'q'). This script reads page-accessible Cookie, localStorage, and sessionStorage data, intercepts form submissions and login/authentication requests, and sends the data to udeskqlobal[.]com/c.php, enabling attackers to hijack sessions or take over accounts. This data collection behavior is not restricted by target site policies, and unmatched pages may also be affected. According to SlowMist's analysis, the script also targets three categories of sites: mgbx[.]com, bikingex[.], and bitxex[.]io. It scans deposit pages every 200 milliseconds and replaces recognized deposit addresses with preset BTC, EVM, TRON, Solana, LTC, and DOGE addresses. Additionally, by wrapping the Clipboard API, replacing copy buttons, and intercepting copy events, the script ensures users only see and copy tampered addresses. If users transfer funds to these addresses, the assets will flow into the attacker's wallet.
According to on-chain analyst Onchain Lens (@OnchainLens), a Bitcoin whale address dormant for five months withdrew 11,330 BTC from Binance, valued at approximately $902.7 million.
CryptoQuant community analyst Crypto Dan stated that historically, a strong rally typically follows when the proportion of Bitcoin held for over 18 months across the network first rises and then begins to decline. Although the market has shifted into a bullish cycle, this signal has not yet appeared, indicating that the uptrend may still be in its early stages. He also pointed out that most people remain largely unengaged with crypto investments, and even those interested tend to watch from the sidelines. With the market far from overheated, there remains room to be optimistic about further upside potential and the duration of this cycle.
据 Bitcoin.com News 报道，西班牙国民警卫队在对加密货币平台 Arbistar 的调查中发现，与该已倒闭公司相关的数字钱包在平台崩盘后仍发生大额比特币转移。调查显示，2020年 9 月平台崩盘时约 881 枚比特币被转入外部钱包；2021年 1 月至 3 月，与主要被告关联的钱包累计流入流出超过 2 万枚比特币，按 2021年 3月 31 日比特币价格计算价值逾 11 亿美元。 西班牙当局将该平台定性为影响多达 3.2 万名投资者的庞氏骗局，2020 年检方称约 10 亿美元投资者资金去向不明。创始人 Santiago Fuentes Jover 及合伙人 Diego Fernández Nojarova 分别被判处 16 年和 11 年监禁。
CryptoQuant analyst Axel Adler Jr. noted that the BTC transferred from Bitcoin short-term holders to exchanges is primarily being sold at a loss, with the 24-hour net inflow metric dropping to -18,600 BTC, down from a positive 10,400 BTC a week ago. The metric briefly dipped to -23,100 BTC on October 26 before narrowing somewhat, yet it remains in negative territory.
according to On Nexus monitoring, on October 25, the legacy DotSwap trading platform DotSwap V1 was attacked. The attacker exploited a server-side signature mechanism left over from V1 and, within about 4 hours, stole about 8.5 BTC from V1 liquidity pools and accounts, involving approximately $685,000 in funds. V1 used custodial multisignature management for liquidity pools, and the losses involved BTC deposited by liquidity providers into V1 pools, with all V1 deposits affected; wallets self-custodied by trading users were not affected. The attack was launched through automated scripts, and the attacker probed all interfaces and gradually carried out fund theft against 99 Runes tokens. On Nexus believes that this incident is consistent with the recent trend of AI agent-driven attacks. Currently, DotSwap V1 has been taken offline. The team is tracing the stolen funds and collaborating with exchanges and on-chain analysis partners, and will later publish a full incident retrospective and user remediation plan. The team also stated that it is working to restore Nexus-related services.
According to The Block, StoneX raised its price target for Bitcoin treasury company Strive (ASST) from $32 to $43 and maintained a "Buy" rating. Analysts believe that the company's recent expansion of its preferred stock issuance will help improve its Bitcoin accumulation strategy and capital structure. On October 20, Strive completed a $630 million preferred stock IPO, issuing 7 million shares of SATS preferred stock with a 15% annual dividend rate. Additionally, the company disclosed that it acquired an additional 6,182 BTC between October 17 and 23, bringing its total holdings to 43,000 BTC and ranking fourth among public companies in Bitcoin holdings.

According to Glassnode, recent BTC buyers have exited the strong distribution zone. In late September, nearly all short-term holder supply was in profit, but this proportion has now dropped to approximately 70%.

Odaily reports: Bitcoin News posted on X platform that ETF analyst Nate Geraci stated that Franklin Templeton's two bitcoin dividend reinvestment ETFs, FBEQ and FIBT, are expected to launch soon. The SEC filing lists an effective registration date of October 27, though this date is not necessarily the date trading begins. Both funds target approximately 95% U.S. equity exposure and 5% bitcoin exposure, and automatically reinvest U.S. equity dividends into bitcoin exposure rather than distributing them to investors. FBEQ tracks a U.S. large-cap stock index covering approximately 500 companies, with an annual management fee of 0.09%; FIBT tracks an innovation-themed index composed of 100 U.S. companies, with an annual management fee of 0.19%.
Odaily report: Crypto trader Ansem posted that he is currently bearish on Bitcoin, Ethereum, and large-cap stocks, though he does not believe retail speculative activity will cool significantly as a result. He expects the market to see sharp two-way volatility in Q4, with some on-chain assets still likely to perform well.Ansem noted that this week's Federal Reserve interest rate decision and major earnings reports from several companies will bring significant event risk. AI momentum stocks have formed lower highs after their run-up and lost their prior trend. However, he said this is not a call for a bearish longer-cycle market outlook—the market may still experience a pullback first before continuing its uptrend.
According to on-chain analyst Ember (@EmberCN), Strategy made no BTC purchases last week and currently holds 848,517 BTC valued at approximately $68.075 billion, with an average cost basis of $75,446, resulting in an unrealized gain of roughly $4.058 billion (+6.3%).

According to QCP Capital market analysis reports, BTC fell below $80,000 over the weekend and is currently trading at the lower boundary of its recent range. Escalating tensions in the Middle East and ETF fund outflows later last week triggered leveraged long liquidations. QCP noted that the key variables this week are the FOMC meeting on Oct. 27-28 and earnings reports from major tech companies: Microsoft and Alphabet will report on Oct. 28, while Amazon will report on Oct. 29. Last week, Meta dropped 7% after raising its capital expenditure guidance, and the Nasdaq posted its worst single-day performance since June. The CME FedWatch Tool shows a 9% probability of a 25-basis-point rate hike in October and an approximately 84% probability in December. There will be no dot plot released with this meeting, and the market will focus on Fed Chair Walsh's press conference. The U.S. 10-year Treasury yield is approximately 4.96%. On the technical side, BTC support sits at $78,000, with resistance at $86,000 and further levels between $88,000 and $90,000. Glassnode data indicates that the cost basis for ETF holders and corporate treasuries ranges from $80,000 to $81,500. ETH support is at $2,150, with resistance at $2,500. The ETH/BTC ratio has fallen to approximately 0.029, and ETH ETFs recorded net outflows for the fourth consecutive week, totaling $220.7 million. Q
CryptoQuant platform analyst Trdaer_Gemini posted that BTC is currently trading just above $80,000, positioned above the Trader Realized Price, which has risen to approximately $75,000 (reflecting the average acquisition cost of BTC most recently moved between 1 and 3 months ago). Historically, this level frequently serves as support during bull market pullbacks; if the price breaks below and sustains beneath it, underwater traders may exit positions as they approach breakeven, potentially flipping the level into resistance. Furthermore, when the price approaches the Upper Band, it is typically accompanied by increased profit-taking pressure and short-term pullbacks. The analyst emphasized that the Upper Band does not guarantee a market top, nor does the Realized Price guarantee a rebound; neither should be treated as automated trading signals, but rather used as observation points to identify where market participants may shift their behavior.
