U.S. Democratic Senators Jeanne Shaheen and Chris Connes sent a letter to SpaceX CEO Elon Musk, requesting that records regarding restrictions on Ukraine's use of the Starlink and Aegis systems be preserved and that written confirmation of the implementation of protective measures be provided by November 30. Ukraine has reported that aircraft equipped with Aegis terminals experience network outages when traveling at speeds exceeding 160 kilometers per hour. Musk stated that StarShield is controlled by the US government, and restrictions on its operating speed or use are determined by the US military, ultimately depending on President Trump. Trump denied any involvement in the speed limit. (Source: WSJ)

Imran, a general partner at Alliance, said that the main topic of discussion at the recent limited partner (LP) dinner was the shift of capital and talent from crypto to cutting-edge technologies such as AI and robotics. The crypto industry is shifting from early experimentation to a focus on Wall Street, TradeFi, payments, and fintech, resulting in narrowing investment opportunities. The industry faces competition for talent from emerging sectors and pressure to evolve towards more mature financial infrastructure. Large crypto VCs are expanding into areas such as robotics and physical AI, mainly because pure crypto funds are difficult to match the expected returns of venture capital.

Loan collateral is different from cash that can be withdrawn and is not guaranteed to be redeemable at any time at the USD balance. (Source: The Defiant)

On November 12, Trezor confirmed that three Safe 5 devices had been compromised with hardware implants. These devices were sold between August 20 and September 23 through the Malaysian distributor CryptoBilis. The implant was a circuit board sandwiched between the screen and the motherboard, which only copied the screen content and sent it to the attacker's server via the mobile network. Firmware version 2.13.1, released on November 11, disabled these implants, but affected users still need to change their mnemonic phrases. Trezor has reduced its reseller network by approximately 80% and is allowing customers who purchased through this channel to request replacements starting in March. No customers have reported losses so far. This reseller was previously involved in a Ledger device tampering scandal that resulted in the theft of over $86 million from Ledger users.
