Executive scan
Today in crypto was led by the Keplr/Web3Auth incident, with reports of exposed private keys, paused embedded wallet services and $6 million in unauthorized Cosmos-linked transfers. The practical issue is not just access recovery; if a key was exposed, restoring login control does not prove the wallet is safe.
Market structure coverage stayed busy. BlackRock’s IBIT was central to reporting on a billion-dollar Bitcoin ETF outflow week, while Fidelity was described as the positive outlier for November 2-6. Ethereum coverage turned on Vitalik Buterin’s argument that ETH should be valued more as a store of value than a fee-burn token. Elsewhere, Binance named Justin Yek to replace departing CFO Kaiser Ng, and AI-driven crypto forecasts drew attention but added little hard signal.
