South Korea's crypto gains tax faces a fourth delay since 2020, with officials now targeting a 2029 start instead of January 2027.

The 22% tax on gains above 2.5M won remains law until parliament amends it, leaving traders in limbo on cost-basis rules for pre-tax holdings.

Will the National Assembly actually pass the delay this time?

🚨 Binance just filed for a Brazil crypto license — hours before the Oct 30 deadline.

Why it matters: Brazil is LatAm's largest economy. Binance isn't just seeking approval — it's restructuring into two entities (BBrasil for crypto, Binance Brasil for fiat/payments) to become a full financial services platform competing directly with traditional banks. Bill payments, FX, international transfers, US stock access — all coming.

Meanwhile, 8 services restricted, 22 tokens delisted for BR users. Margin, loans, Launchpool, Megadrop — gone. The regulator gave exchanges 270 days vs 5 years for payment firms. <10% of existing providers expected to even apply.

OKX, Bybit, Transfero, Brasil Bitcoin already filed. Coinbase, Foxbit, Mercado Bitcoin expected to follow.

Will Binance's bank-like pivot in Brazil set the template for global exchange regulation?

Bitcoin maintains a strong position above USD 83,000 as the market anticipates the upcoming U.S. inflation report. While Bitcoin shows resilience, altcoins experience a downturn, reflecting cautious investor sentiment. Trading volumes in crypto futures have cooled, highlighting market prudence ahead of key economic data and Federal Reserve decisions.

Candlestick charts are essential tools in trading that visually represent price movements using four key data points: Open, High, Low, and Close (OHLC). Each candlestick has a body showing the price difference between open and close, and wicks indicating the highest and lowest prices during a period. Typically, green candles mean prices closed higher (bullish), while red means they closed lower (bearish). These charts help traders identify market trends and potential reversals. However, they work best combined with other indicators like volume or support and resistance for more accurate analysis. $BNB
