As principais notícias de cripto do dia em três minutos. Um episódio novo toda manhã.
We cover a $106 million crypto heist, Tom Lee’s AI sell‑off outlook, prediction‑market midterm odds, a European fridge hack, Treasury cash levels and a Supreme Court fight over Fed access.
This is COINMAG Daily, your crypto briefing for Tuesday, November 3. We’ve got a big theft, a market‑watch take on AI stocks, and a few headlines that could move prices.
Next up, a massive cyber‑theft. On November 1, attackers drained more than one hundred six million dollars from an EU‑based exchange’s accounts. They quickly swapped the stolen stablecoins for ether and then moved a chunk into monero, a privacy coin that makes tracing hard. Investigators say the rapid conversion was meant to hide the trail before any freeze could be applied. The loss underscores how quickly criminals can move value across chains and why custodians are tightening withdrawal limits.

Now, let’s talk AI stocks. Fund strategist Tom Lee says the recent sell‑off in AI‑related equities has finally hit bottom. He points to a tight supply of chips and a surprisingly muted reaction from the crypto market after the recent Binance hack. Lee believes the combination of constrained hardware and steady crypto demand could support a rebound in AI shares, though he stops short of calling it a buying signal.

Turning to politics, prediction markets are weighing in on the 2026 midterms. Polymarket and Kalshi both give Democrats a roughly three‑quarters chance of controlling the Senate and the House. Those odds line up with traditional pollsters, suggesting the market sees a strong Democratic tilt even as the next election cycle is still a few years away.

In Europe, a different kind of hack is causing trouble. Refrigeration units in supermarkets across six countries were remotely set to defrost, risking millions of euros in spoiled food. Authorities are probing whether a state‑linked group is behind the attack, as the incident highlights the vulnerability of supply‑chain infrastructure to cyber‑intrusion.

On the fiscal front, the U.S. Treasury’s general account is hovering near one trillion dollars. That massive cash cushion means upcoming borrowing decisions could test Bitcoin’s liquidity. If the Treasury draws down cash, funding conditions may ease, potentially giving bitcoin a short‑term boost as investors seek yield alternatives.

Finally, a legal battle that could affect crypto banks. Custodia Bank has asked the Supreme Court to overturn a lower‑court ruling that lets regional Federal Reserve branches refuse payment‑system access to eligible banks. The case could set a precedent for how crypto‑friendly institutions interact with the traditional banking system.
