- SOL treasury company SkyAI allegedly transferred 468,000 SOL, worth approximately $51.1 million.BlockBeats news, October 10th, according to EmberCN monitoring, the address associated with Nasdaq-listed SOL treasury company SkyAI (SKYA) transferred out 468,000 SOL in the past 24 hours, valued at approximately $51.1 million at current prices. Among them, 218,000 SOL was transferred to multiple centralized exchanges, and another 250,000 SOL was transferred to institutional crypto asset service platform BitGo. SkyAI's latest filing released on September 14th showed that the company held over 2 million SOL in reserves at that time. It is currently unclear whether this transfer means the company is selling SOL, and the related fund flows cannot directly prove that it has completed a reduction in holdings.
- US CFTC Proposes to Bring Prediction Market Event Contracts Under Swaps Regulation, Seeking Federal Regulatory AuthorityBlockBeats news, October 10: The U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) on Friday issued an interim final rule and proposed another new rule, seeking to further establish its regulatory authority over prediction markets. Under the new proposal, event contracts on sports, politics, culture, and weather traded on platforms such as Kalshi and Polymarket would be brought under the existing U.S. swaps regulatory framework, with the CFTC responsible for oversight; casino-style gambling would be excluded from the definition of swaps. The two rules differ in legal effect and stage of advancement: the interim final rule has taken effect immediately but is still open to public comment; the other rule, which explicitly includes event contracts in the definition of swaps, remains at the proposal stage, with a 30-day public comment period. The move comes as the CFTC is engaged in legal disputes with multiple states over regulatory authority concerning prediction markets. The states involved argue that some sports event contracts are essentially gambling operations and should be subject to state-level gambling regulations; CFTC Chairman Mike Selig maintains that such contracts are financial derivatives under the jurisdiction of the federal agency. The dispute between the two sides has been submitted to the U.S. Supreme Court, and recent rulings by federal appellate courts have also shown divisions. The new rules could serve as an important basis for the CFTC to support its regulatory position in subsequent litigation.
- Former FTX COO Slams Netflix's New Show 'The Altruists' Trailer: It Made Me Physically SickBlockBeats news, October 10: Former FTX Chief Operating Officer Constance Wang on Friday criticized Netflix's upcoming FTX-themed series "The Altruists," saying that watching the trailer made her "physically vomit." She believes that the show's portrayal of the FTX collapse, founder Sam Bankman-Fried (SBF), and former Alameda Research CEO Caroline Ellison is severely inconsistent with her firsthand experience. Wang said that FTX had fewer than 200 employees at the time, and many people worked 16 to 18 hours a day with almost no sleep. She also refuted the narrative that the FTX collapse was caused by executives indulging in parties in the Bahamas, saying that what she saw while working at the company was completely different. She also pointed out that the trailer's portrayal of Ellison is too aggressive, saying that in reality Ellison is quiet and gentle, and that most employees did not know she was dating SBF until after FTX went bankrupt. Wang joined FTX as COO in early 2019 and was promoted to co-CEO months before the company's collapse. She said the FTX collapse ruined many people's lives, while Netflix turned this tragedy into a love story, and she bluntly called it "shameful." "The Altruists" has 8 episodes and is scheduled to premiere on Netflix on November 19.
- Putin says Ukraine's actions have made it impossible to resume Russia-Ukraine talks for now; U.S., Ukrainian and European representatives meet for six hours in Miami to seek a unified peace proposal.BlockBeats news, October 10: Russian Presidential Aide Ushakov stated in the early hours of October 10 local time that Putin, in a phone call with Trump, said that Ukraine attempted to sabotage Russia's State Duma elections and attack civilians, undermining the possibility of immediately resuming Russia-Ukraine negotiations.

Meanwhile, people familiar with the talks revealed that U.S., Ukrainian, and European negotiators held about six hours of talks in Miami on Friday, seeking consensus on a unified proposal to end the Russia-Ukraine war, with the goal of forming a plan in the coming weeks and submitting it to Russia, striving for a breakthrough before winter. The talks covered issues including Ukraine's post-war security guarantees, economic reconstruction, the path to EU accession, territorial issues, and the future security architecture between Europe and Russia, but no specific details of the arrangements have been announced.

- Trump: Russia to supply large quantities of diesel to the US and global marketsBlockBeats news, October 10: U.S. President Trump posted this morning, saying, "I have just concluded a very successful meeting with Russian President Putin. Both sides agreed that Russia will immediately supply more than 300,000 tons of diesel to the United States and global markets, another 500,000 tons in November, followed immediately by an additional 1 million tons. In addition, based on the actual condition of Russia's diesel refineries, Russia will also supply 3 million tons of diesel in the short term. With our complete control over the Strait of Hormuz, and this major announcement regarding Russian energy, diesel prices in the United States and around the world will fall rapidly at a record pace! Lowering the cost of living for the American people, especially for our great farmers, ranchers, and truck drivers, is my top priority. This is a very major and important announcement. Furthermore, one thing must be made clear: Iran must never have nuclear weapons!"
