It was a fun crypto week. OKEx suspended withdrawals as they couldn't get in touch with a private key holder. Also, somebody moved Satoshi era 1,000 bitcoin again, Marc van der Chijs told us that hodling bitcoin would've been a better strategy than trying to outperform it, Kraken researchers said that BTC finished its worst-performing month in September, and that higher returns and volatility could be expected in October, and it was debated whether Elon Musk’s Tesla Gigafactory 1 plant was fitted with a BTC ATM. Also, PwC said that the Americas are loosing their share in crypto M&A and fundraising, and that five blockchain use cases might boost global GDP by USD 1.76T, while Fidelity Digital Assets said that growing institutional investor base could increase BTC's correlation with traditional assets. Also, the BTC in your "brainwallet" might be stolen in less than a second.
And more stuff happened in the Cryptoverse, as KBA asked the South Korean government to suspend crypto taxes until 2023, China started a digital yuan airdrop, and G7 is looking into CBDCs, reiterating that Libra can't be launched until it’s regulated. Fundstrat Global Advisors warned that trading on offshore exchanges might become riskier, and General Counsel at Compound Finance warned that governments globally are looking to impose harsher restrictions on access to cryptoassets. The OECD wants its members to adopt crypto tax frameworks, and the Russian Central bank wants to cap bitcoin buying at USD 7,800 a year. Meanwhile, Kate Winslet joined the cast of OneCoin crypto scam movie, crypto cruise ship Satoshi might set sail soon from the Mediterranean, and a Russian firm is set to open a crypto mining "hotel".
And here comes your weekly, special, crypto treat. Bon appetit!

2020 in a tweet.
True story. China is literally airdropping digital currency into citizens’ digital wallets and there are still people out there that think crypto “isn’t a thing”.

Explaining bitcoin to Wall Street buddies.
Wall Street Buddy: “Tell me about crypto”
Me: “If you make ten bets and 9 go to $0 and 1 goes 100x, you’re up 10x. Oh and you don’t sleep”
