🚀 TikTok Under Scrutiny In UK For Cryptocurrency-Like Operations

According to BlockBeats, on October 17, TikTok is currently under scrutiny in the United Kingdom for allegedly operating in a manner similar to cryptocurrency exchanges. This development follows a report by cryptonews highlighting concerns raised by a compliance expert who advised the UK's Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) to conduct anti-money laundering and counter-terrorism financing checks on the short video platform.

The compliance expert pointed out potential issues with TikTok's virtual token system, TikTok Coins, which can be purchased with fiat currency and used within the platform or during live streams. These tokens can also be converted back into cash, a process that mirrors cryptocurrency transactions. This has led to regulatory concerns, as cryptocurrency businesses are subject to stringent oversight. Critics argue that TikTok's handling of virtual currencies could attract the same level of scrutiny faced by cryptocurrency platforms. Additionally, the similarity to cryptocurrency transactions has raised concerns about the security of users' financial data.

As of the time of reporting, neither TikTok nor the FCA has responded to requests for comments.

🚀 Cryptocurrency Interest Surges In Key Swing States Since 2020 Election

According to Odaily, a16z's '2024 State of Crypto' report reveals significant increases in cryptocurrency search interest in key swing states since the 2020 election. Google Trends data shows that Pennsylvania and Wisconsin rank fourth and fifth, respectively, in terms of search interest growth. Other swing states like Michigan and Georgia have also seen a surge in cryptocurrency searches, while Arizona and Nevada have experienced a slight decline in interest since 2020. These states, which can swing between Democratic and Republican support, often play a crucial role in determining the outcome of U.S. presidential elections.

The a16z report highlights that over 40 million Americans now hold cryptocurrency, with the majority expressing support for candidates who advocate for crypto-friendly policies. Among voters in swing states, 41% identify as Democrats, 39% as Republicans, and 20% as independents or other affiliations. Additionally, 25% of Americans aged 18 to 34 own cryptocurrency. The report notes that one factor likely to increase interest in cryptocurrency this year is the listing of Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs. As these products grow, the number of Americans holding cryptocurrency is expected to rise.

🚀 Bitcoin Whale Transactions Reach Highest Level In Over 10 Weeks

According to Odaily, Santiment reported on platform X that the number of Bitcoin whale transactions has surged to its highest level in over 10 weeks. On Tuesday, the network recorded 11,697 transactions exceeding $100,000, with expectations for a new high on Wednesday. Additionally, social media discussions have significantly shifted towards Bitcoin rather than altcoins, with mainstream cryptocurrencies accounting for over a quarter of all discussions. For the first time since July, Bitcoin's price has surpassed the $68,000 mark. These indicators suggest that due to whale profit-taking and high levels of group FOMO, the rally might pause. However, given that mid-to-long-term indicators remain bullish, any price adjustments are likely to be short-term.
