UK’s Largest Investment Platform Warns Retail Traders Against Adding Crypto to Portfolios

PANews reported on October 10th that Bloomberg News reported that the leadership of artificial intelligence computing company CoreWeave Inc. sold over $1 billion worth of stock after the lockup period ended in mid-August, ranking among the top ten individual insider sellers in the third quarter. This was the first opportunity for insiders to cash out since CoreWeave's IPO in March, which created four new billionaires. Since then, the company's stock price has soared over 250%. According to Washington Service data, director Jack Cogen sold $477 million worth of stock during the quarter, while co-founder Brannin McBee netted $426 million. Both sold shares under pre-arranged 10b5-1 plans tied to target prices, joining several other insiders in cashing out. A CoreWeave representative declined to comment. Some CoreWeave investors followed suit, with its largest institutional shareholder, Magnetar Financial LLC, selling nearly $1.9 billion worth of stock during the same period. Documents filed in October show that the hedge fund still holds over 20% of the company's Class A shares.

PANews reported on October 10th that, according to Cryptopolitan, the privacy-focused blockchain Monero has released a major upgrade, CLI v0.18.4.3 "Fluorine Fermi," to enhance its protection against spy nodes. In the Monero community, the term "spy node" refers to malicious nodes, groups, or botnets that can link IP addresses to transaction information, effectively undermining the blockchain's privacy guarantees. The "Fermi" update addresses this issue by implementing an improved node selection algorithm that reduces the likelihood of users connecting to multiple nodes within the same IP subnet, a common tactic used by spy nodes. This prevents users from connecting to large clusters of suspicious IP addresses, directing them to more secure nodes. The "Fermi" update also changes how and to whom messages are sent, making it extremely difficult for spies to track their delivery paths. This helps the Monero email service avoid these suspicious delivery parties.
