PANews reported on October 9th that, according to Jinshi Data, the minutes of the Federal Reserve's September meeting revealed a deepening disagreement over the path of interest rate cuts. While most officials believed further easing this year was "likely appropriate," seven dissenters supported further rate cuts; only Governor Stephen Miran advocated for a one-time 50 basis point cut and dissented. The minutes noted that the government shutdown had resulted in a lack of key economic data, forcing officials to rely on private sector data and business feedback. A slim majority predicted at least two more rate cuts this year, with markets anticipating 25 basis point cuts in October and December . Powell emphasized the need to maintain a careful balance between the "two-way risks" of employment and inflation.PANews reported on October 9th that, according to Jinshi Data, the minutes of the Federal Reserve's September meeting revealed a deepening disagreement over the path of interest rate cuts.

The Beijing Procuratorate announced a case of illegal USDT cross-border foreign exchange transactions involving over 1.1 billion yuan.

PANews reported on October 29th that, according to a report by 21st Century Business Herald, on October 28th, the Beijing Municipal People's Procuratorate released "Typical Cases of High-Quality and Efficient Performance of Financial Procuratorial Duties" (2024-2025). One case involved "using virtual currency to indirectly buy and sell foreign exchange, involving over 1.1 billion yuan." Between January and August 2023, Lin Jia, under the instruction of others, colluded with Lin Yi, Xia, Bao, and Chen to use multiple bank cards under their names to receive large amounts of RMB funds transferred from clients (such as Liu) connected to the "upstream" of an illegal currency exchange organization. This gang used virtual currency as a "bridge" to achieve the illegal purpose of cross-border fund transfers: Lin Jia and others converted the received RMB into USDT through multiple USDT trading platform accounts they actually controlled, and then completed the cross-border fund transfer through platform transactions, essentially engaging in disguised foreign exchange trading and profiting from it. According to the report, the total illegal business activities of the gang amounted to over 1.182 billion yuan, of which five members, including Xia and Bao, participated in activities ranging from over 149 million yuan to over 469 million yuan. On March 21, 2025, the Haidian District People's Court of Beijing issued a first-instance verdict, sentencing all five defendants to prison terms ranging from two to four years for the crime of illegal business operations, and imposing corresponding fines.
