- Irish central bank fines Coinbase Ireland $3.6 million over fund safeguarding failures
Ireland's central bank fined Coinbase Ireland 3.25 million euros ($3.6 million) for alleged failures to safeguard customer funds and oversee outsourced services, saying the unit relied excessively on its U.S. parent and lacked adequate systems and controls. The regulator cited a 2023 episode in which Coinbase directed 30 customers to deposit funds into an alternate account at another U.S. bank when Silvergate neared collapse, holding them alongside funds of another Coinbase entity's customers, and coding errors left a safeguarding account underfunded by an average of 0.54% in 2023 and the first half of 2024. Coinbase said no customer lost money or was unable to access funds. The penalty follows a 21.4 million-euro fine on Coinbase Europe in 2025 for anti-money laundering failures.
- XRP Is 63% Below Its All-Time High and Ethereum 51%. Which Reclaims their ATH First?
XRP trades at $1.33, 63.5% below its all-time high of $3.65 set in July 2025, while Ethereum is at $2,403, 51.4% below its August 2025 peak of $4,946, and both fell over the past month. Reclaiming those highs would require gains of 174.4% for XRP and 105.9% for Ethereum, and the article concludes Ethereum has the edge, citing JPM Coin's integration onto its network on October 19 and a sizeable ETF asset base. XRP ETFs held $1.57 billion in net assets, but inflows slowed to $708,500 on October 21, while Ethereum's cumulative ETF net inflows fell to $12.83 billion amid outflows. Other news includes Germany's Sparkassen savings banks offering XRP trading and Ethereum's Glamsterdam upgrade entering the Hoodi test network on October 26.
- Tech stocks fall as Nvidia boss warns of AI funding slowdown
US stocks fell sharply on Thursday after Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang warned that a “scarcity of capital” was holding back AI rollout, fuelling worries about the cost of sustaining the AI boom. The Nasdaq 100 dropped 1.5% and the S&P fell nearly 1%. Meta shares slid 5% after it raised the lower bound of its capex guidance from $130 billion to $135 billion and issued new non-voting stock, while Tesla fell 2% after cutting its proposed AI spending from $25 billion to $20 billion. Oil added to the sell-off, with Brent rising 2.5% to $111.60 per barrel, its first move above $110 since May, after Aramco evacuated staff from its Dhahran headquarters over a warning of Houthi attacks.
- Musk: People Are "Buying FSD With a Car Attached." There's Only One Problem.
Tesla said 75% of its new North American deliveries in the third quarter came with an FSD subscription, up from 55% in the second quarter, and active FSD subscriptions rose 67% to 1.74 million. Tesla has not disclosed how many subscribers pay, since the first month is free. When an RBC analyst asked whether the paid rate was closer to 30% to 40%, CFO Vaibhav Taneja did not give a clear answer. The article also notes that Tesla's overall gross margin fell from 25.6% in fiscal 2022 to 18% in fiscal 2025, while the stock trades at 185x forward earnings. It argues the paid attach rate is the key figure to watch, as paid FSD revenue remains small relative to Tesla's total sales.

- TeraFab's $16.8 billion bet to start producing 100K chips a month
Host Ejaaz Ahamadeen comments on Elon Musk's proposed $16.8 billion investment in his TeraFab semiconductor manufacturing project. He argues that chips are a key bottleneck for AI, humanoid robots and cars, and that vertical integration would reduce reliance on suppliers such as Nvidia. The first phase involves $16.8 billion to reach 100,000 wafers a month before 2030, with a peak of 1 million wafers a month within 10 years and more than 3,000 jobs. The host also stresses that the project carries many potential risks.
