英国法院推进了前 Saitama 首席执行官 Manpreet Kohli 的对美引渡程序。根据路透报道,法官 Samuel Goozee 于 8 月 19 日驳回 Kohli 的抗辩,并将案件移交英国政府,就美国提出的引渡请求作出下一步决定。

Kohli 目前仍可继续上诉,因此引渡尚未最终确定。他现阶段以 20 万英镑保释在外,约合 27.24 万美元。报道同时提到,Kohli 尚未被定罪。

引渡抗辩未获支持

Kohli 此前反对被引渡,理由之一是担心自己在美国羁押期间的心理健康状况,以及可能存在自杀风险。法官认为,在转移过程和美国监狱体系内,相关保障措施足以把风险控制在可接受范围内,因此没有采纳这一抗辩理由。

这一进展发生前,波士顿联邦法院本月早些时候也作出过一项对 Kohli 不利的裁定。当地法官驳回了他要求撤销起诉书的申请。Kohli 当时主张,Saitama 代币在美国法律下不能被认定为证券。

美国指控涉及代币操纵

这起案件源于美国司法部此前针对加密市场操纵展开的调查。2024 年 10 月 9 日,也就是 Kohli 在伦敦被捕两天后,美国司法部公布了“Operation Token Mirrors”行动下的起诉内容,指控相关人员涉嫌欺诈和洗售交易。

所谓洗售交易,是指通过多个账户反复买卖同一资产,或与他人协同行动,制造虚假的成交量和市场活跃度,而并非真实交易需求推动。

检方称获利约2000万美元

按照美国司法部说法,包括 Kohli 在内的 18 人曾在多个钱包之间协调买入代币,并向 ZM Quant 和 Gotbit 支付费用,要求后者在多家交易所进行洗售交易。检方还称,这些高管一边公开否认出售持仓,一边私下抛售代币,套现数百万美元。

检方指控 Kohli 个人获利约 2000 万美元。报道还提到,做市商 Gotbit 此后已承认曾为包括 Saitama 在内的客户操纵代币价格和成交量。2025 年 6 月,Gotbit 被裁定没收 2300 万美元,其创始人 Aleksei Andriunin 被判处 8 个月监禁。

Who decides on the liquidation when assets remain with the custodian bank and funds are lent out onto the blockchain?
After institutions hand over their collateral to qualified custodian organizations, they can still obtain funds from the on-chain lending market. This is the approach outlined by Chainlink on October 26th when introducing CustodySync. The official first-party partner is Anchorage Digital Bank, which, in conjunction with its Atlas collateral management product, integrates the custodial arrangements familiar to institutions into the liquidity of DeFi.

The unemployment rate in the eurozone remains at 6.5%, yet the number of unemployed has increased by 122,000.
The unemployment rate in the eurozone in September remained the same as in August, at 6.5%; however, the number of unemployed increased from 11.433 million to 11.555 million, an increase of 122,000 in just one month. These figures, released by the European Union Statistics Office on October 30th, present another side of the so-called "stable unemployment rate": while the ratio shown in the headlines remained unchanged, the number of people joining the ranks of the unemployed continued to rise.

Eurozone GDP growth slows month-on-month, but rises to 1.3% year-on-year
Within the same GDP table, the quarter-on-quarter growth rate in the eurozone dropped from 0.6% to 0.4% in the third quarter, while the year-on-year growth rate increased from 1.2% to 1.3%. If only one line of data is considered, the economic trend might seem to tell two opposite stories. According to the preliminary rapid estimates released by the European Union Statistics Office on October 30th, these two sets of figures need to be viewed together, and readers are advised to first distinguish between the time periods being compared.

The agent starts to design the booking interface, with component permissions remaining in the hands of the application.
When selecting a vacation, users may simply need to compare six packages side by side and then click on a date. However, chat-based intelligent agents often present flight details, hotel information, and prices in long blocks of text, before finally providing a link to proceed. In a tutorial published on October 29th by Google and CopilotKit, they took a different approach to this booking process: they incorporated selectable cards and input fields into the conversation, allowing users to continue their operations right within the original interface.
