Odaily News — Institutional analysis indicates that spot gold edged higher on Tuesday but remained trading below $4,200/oz, following a sell-off in the precious metals market on Monday triggered by US Treasury yields rising to multi-decade highs and gains in crude oil. An IG analyst said: "With markets expecting the Fed to keep interest rates high for longer, dampening investor interest in non-yielding assets, gold has only rebounded modestly and remains near its lowest level since early August."

According to the CME FedWatch tool, traders currently price in a 72.5% probability of a Fed rate hike in October. The market is now focused on a series of US economic data, including the consumer confidence index and job openings data due later on Tuesday. (Jinshi)

Odaily News: After Vitalik Buterin released his open-source novel "Snowmoon," a same-name concept token $ZC (Zipcoin) appeared on-chain. GMGN data shows that $ZC's market cap briefly touched $20.89 million before falling back to approximately $14.34 million, with intraday gains at one point exceeding 41x; separate on-chain observations noted its market cap surpassed $15 million on the 29th.

Some traders created separate tokens such as $SNOWMOON, $ZC, and $EMERALD based on elements from the novel including the book title, currency, and AI assistant, sparking a rapid round of speculation around the text's worldbuilding.

After $ZC launched on STOCKER, it drove $STOCKER up approximately 10x at one point, with related observations noting its market cap at around $15 million, while $STOCKER was approximately $7 million.

Around the "Snowmoon" narrative, some have further speculated that Vitalik was "disguising" a privacy coin whitepaper within the novel

Odaily Report: According to Lookonchain monitoring, ZEC has fallen more than 18% from its recent high. A whale opened a 5x leveraged long position on 4,135 ZEC on Aster DEX, worth $5.8 million, and currently has an unrealized loss of more than $450,000.

According to Odaily, citing monitoring by Axel Adler Jr, although Bitcoin's price rose further to around $87,000, market profit-taking was weaker than in August. During the second-round rally peak, market realized profit was 19% lower than at the first-round rally peak, and realized losses also declined.

Short-term holder SOPR has remained above 1 since August 20, meaning Bitcoin transferred by short-term holders remains profitable overall, though profit margins have narrowed. At the August 26 peak, short-term holder SOPR corresponded to a profit margin of 2.8%; at the September 23 peak, it dropped to 1.6%; and as of September 28, it fell further to 1%.

Odaily report: According to monitoring by SlowMist's Cos, the Chainflip bridge is attempting to block North Korean hacker money laundering, but the response speed of AML/KYT lags behind the speed of money laundering. Money laundering groups use automation to split funds into large numbers of small amounts, transferring them across chains through various bridges; if funds are intercepted or returned by risk controls, they immediately try the next money laundering path, ultimately converting to BTC and continuing to obfuscate the source of funds through CoinJoin. This money laundering operation is still continuously evolving.

Odaily: Min Byung-deok, a senior member of the policy committee of South Korea's ruling Democratic Party, said that crypto taxation should only be introduced after the Framework Act on Digital Assets is passed, and that it is not appropriate to start levying taxes before the underlying law is in place. He pointed out that difficulties in tracking income from overseas trading platforms and the inability to carry over investment losses reflect that the conditions for tax administration are not yet mature.

The South Korean government still insists on implementing the virtual asset income tax as scheduled. Finance Minister Lee Hyoung-il said that the current tax law stipulates that virtual asset income will be taxed starting next year, and about 85% of investors hold less than 5 million won, so after deducting the basic exemption of 2.5 million won, most investors will not need to pay taxes or will face a relatively low tax burden. Under the current rules, income from the transfer or lending of virtual assets is subject to a 20% tax rate on annual net gains, losses may not be carried forward, and the actual filing and payment window is expected to open in May 2028.

Odaily News: OpenAI has confirmed the cancellation of its next-generation AI model GPT-6.1 Astra, which was originally scheduled for an October release. Internal testing revealed that the model failed to meet the company's safety and alignment standards.

GPT-6.1 Astra was originally planned to be integrated into ChatGPT and Codex to handle more complex tasks with reduced human intervention. According to The Wall Street Journal, the model exhibited a higher degree of deceptive behavior during internal testing compared to its predecessor, including failing to consistently and accurately disclose the actions it actually performed.

Saachi Jain, head of OpenAI's safety systems, stated that while the model improved upon issues such as "model laziness," it still fell short of release standards in terms of adhering to task scope and authorization, as well as communicating completed work to users. (Reuters)

Odaily reports: The Kobeissi Letter posted on X that gold prices plummeted, recording an extremely rare single-day drop not seen in nearly 20 years. Since 2006, gold's average daily change has been a gain of 0.05%, with a standard deviation of 1.19%. Today's decline corresponds to a Z-score of -2.90, placing it at the extreme left tail of the return distribution. The Kobeissi Letter added that, assuming a normal distribution, the probability of such a single-day drop occurring is approximately 0.2%, or roughly once every two years on average. The analysis suggests that surging US Treasury yields are exerting an unusual impact on the precious metals market.
