Claiming 324.8 BTC, worth approximately $27.2 million, Lewis Barber has sued BitMEX operator HDR Global Trading

Bitcoin News posted on X that Lewis Barber has filed a lawsuit in the London Commercial Court against BitMEX operator HDR Global Trading, claiming 324.8 BTC, worth approximately $27.2 million. The lawsuit concerns 1,053 losing perpetual contract trades between 2018 and 2022, arguing that HDR Global Trading was not authorized by the UK Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) to provide UK derivatives services, and therefore the related trades should not be enforceable. BitMEX said the lawsuit has been filed but has not yet been served; the exchange closed in September.

Up to 1000x leverage supported, Jupiter launches YOLO trading product

SIONG posted on X platform stating that Jupiter Labs has launched an experimental high-leverage trading product YOLO, supporting 500x to 1000x leverage. The product draws on the JLP model, simulating positions based on real market prices, but profit and loss actually occur without the need to execute leveraged positions of corresponding scale in the market. YOLO's profits are paid out from a liquidity pool; if the pool's liquidity is insufficient, related payments may be queued rather than settled instantly. SIONG stated that this model differs from traditional perpetual contracts and has its own risks and limitations. YOLO is currently still in its early stages, and the product was launched to provide experimental space for new financial products and trading experiences, with inspiration from PaperTrade.

Nasdaq Proposes Accelerated Delisting for Companies Valued Below $5 Million, Drawing Opposition from U.S. Domestic Firms

Odaily reports: Nasdaq plans to introduce new rules under which listed companies whose market capitalization falls below $5 million for 30 consecutive days would face immediate suspension and delisting proceedings, aimed at cracking down on manipulation tactics such as "pump-and-dump" schemes in the overseas small-cap stock market. The proposal has drawn opposition from small U.S. domestic businesses, with affected companies concerned that the new rules could inadvertently target normally operating companies with significant stock price volatility, impacting their fundraising and business development. The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) suspended progress on the proposal last month and decided to seek further public comment. Currently, more than 190 Nasdaq-listed companies have a market capitalization of no more than $5 million, nearly half of which are headquartered in the United States. (Bloomberg)
