The lending protocol Lido Lend proposed by contributors will launch a withdrawal mechanism called Fallback Exits. When the market lacks sufficient liquidity of loan assets, lenders can utilize the collateral of borrowers to supplement withdrawal requests, and the corresponding debt of the relevant borrowers will be reduced. The protocol was launched on October 7 as a modified fork of Morpho Blue, built around isolated markets.According to the proposal, the collateral of borrowers will be passively utilized in order of the highest position risk, meaning positions closest to the liquidation loan-to-value ratio (LLTV) will be prioritized, while borrowers with very healthy positions are less likely to be affected. Taking the ETH/wstETH market as an example, lenders provide ETH, and borrowers stake wstETH to borrow ETH; if exiting through collateral, lenders will first be exposed to the staked tokens before receiving ETH. The proposal does not specify the qualification thresholds for healthy loans or the path for lenders to obtain ETH.Contributor Izzy stated in a post on October 16 that technical specifications and market parameters will be announced in the next two weeks, and the governance process and public audit must be completed before the mainnet launch. Details such as settlement valuation, debt offset formulas, fees, and limits have yet to be determined.

DeepSeek supplements the API peak and valley billing rules. During weekends with adjusted work hours and China's statutory holidays, the entire day is charged at off-peak rates. Although September 20 is a workday due to the National Day holiday adjustment, the API still applies the off-peak price.DeepSeek implemented peak and valley pricing starting August 17, with off-peak prices set at half of peak prices. Less than a week later, all Saturdays and Sundays were changed to off-peak prices. This further clarifies the billing criteria for adjusted workdays and statutory holidays.Taking deepseek-flash as an example, for every million tokens of cache misses, the off-peak rate is 1 yuan, and the peak rate is 2 yuan; the output rates are 4 yuan and 8 yuan respectively. Another adjusted workday for the National Day holiday on October 10 is a Saturday, which will also be calculated at the off-peak price.

The latest research report from the Hyperliquid Policy Center (HPC) states that perpetual contracts expand hedging options and improve price discovery, with no evidence found of statistically significant harm to the benchmark futures market. The report argues that perpetual contracts are complementary to traditional futures with expiration dates, rather than zero-sum substitutes.The study utilizes the natural experiment of traditional markets being closed on weekends while perpetual markets continue trading, comparing 205 weekends of Bitcoin trading and 19 weekends of on-chain crude oil perpetual (xyz:CL) samples. The report states that expiring futures require calendar-based forced rollovers, with the cost of rolling a $10 million exposure on the Monday of April 2026 being about $950,000, while on Friday it is about $110,000; perpetual positions do not have this forced cost. The median transaction price for on-chain crude oil perpetual during non-trading hours is about $1,300, approximately one percent of the benchmark WTI median transaction price.HPC also provides an example where the crude oil weekend repricing on the week of March 6, 2026, was 15.8%, with the benchmark market completely closed; if hedged through on-chain crude oil perpetual, a $10 million position loss could be reduced from about $1.58 million to approximately $62,000 (after accounting for all costs).

According to Cointelegraph, the Governor of the Bank of Italy, Fabio Panetta, stated that commercial bank money and central bank money will continue to serve as the cornerstones of the monetary system, while stablecoins can only play a supplementary role. He pointed out that the stability of stablecoins ultimately depends on their peg to fiat currencies, which limits their ability to operate independently within the financial system.Panetta believes that payments have become a core strategic competitive area for banks; against the backdrop of the global economic shift towards technological power and a diverging geopolitical environment, digital finance poses pressure on banks. The Bank of Italy maintains a cautious stance on stablecoins.The Deputy Governor of the bank had previously warned that "multi-issuer stablecoins" issued across multiple jurisdictions could pose legal, operational, and financial stability risks to the EU, and therefore should be restricted to regions with equivalent regulatory standards and subjected to strict reserve requirements.

ChainCatcher news, economist El-Erian stated that at the press conference, faced with repeated questions from reporters, Federal Reserve Chairman Powell had to deal with the contradiction between the unusual move of starting the rate cut cycle with a 50 basis point cut and the repeated assessment that "the economy is in good shape."
