Brazilian cryptocurrency exchange Mercado Bitcoin announced a phased restoration of platform access starting this week. Customers can log back into their accounts via the website, with the reopening proceeding gradually from 16:00 local time and expected to cover all customers by 18:00. The exchange had previously suspended deposits and withdrawals due to a hacker attack, with estimated losses between $38 million and $46 million. Mercado Bitcoin stated that customer balance records remain intact, and the amount of assets, investments, and Brazilian real balances for each customer have not been affected. The company will use its own funds to replenish the transferred balances. This recovery is the first phase; customers can currently only check their balances and holdings. Withdrawals and trading functions remain suspended and will be restored in phases after security checks are completed.

The European Central Bank, the European Commission, and the European Securities and Markets Authority are seeking members for a European Tokenization Standards Group, led by the industry, to develop common standards for the holding and settlement of tokenized securities. EU industry associations, global institutions, private companies, and fintech companies can apply by November 27th. The group plans to begin work in January 2027, with the three institutions participating as observers. The goal is to develop the first batch of technical and market standards by early 2028 to support the holding and settlement of tokenized securities across distributed ledger platforms and to facilitate interoperability between these platforms and existing financial systems. These standards will support Appia, a Eurosystem-wide blueprint project for tokenized finance markets.
