[South Korea May Adjust Sanctions to Address North Korea's Cryptocurrency Theft Threat] South Korean Vice Foreign Minister Kim Ji-na stated that South Korea may adjust its sanctions framework against North Korea to address the threat of cryptocurrency theft by the regime.

**[DeFi Ecosystem Faces Liquidity Crisis, Potentially Hiding $8 Billion Risk]** On November 7, concerns about a liquidity crisis triggered by cascading liquidations spread across the crypto community. On November 3, Stream Finance announced the suspension of deposits and withdrawals after one of its external fund managers suffered a liquidation during market volatility on October 11, resulting in a loss of approximately $93 million in fund assets. Currently, the DeFi ecosystem may be facing a systemic crisis involving $8 billion in total value locked (TVL), with reported losses of around $100 million. The DeFi liquidity protocol Elixir has been affected, showing a $68 million risk exposure. Morpho's co-founder responded that insufficient liquidity in certain pools is not due to systemic vulnerabilities. Stablecoin yield protocols saw $1 billion in outflows within a single week, while the market capitalization of Ethena Labs' USDe dropped by approximately 45% over the past month, falling below $9 billion. Compound has suspended multiple stablecoin lending markets on Ethereum, and Stables Labs' USDX stablecoin significantly depegged to $0.314. Asset leverage nesting and lack of transparency in management could potentially trigger a larger crisis.
