Citigroup raises Bitcoin target to $113,000
CoinWorld data: According to U.Today, Wall Street banking giant Citigroup has raised its Bitcoin target to $113,000, expected to be reached within the next 12 months. Previously, the bank had projected Bitcoin's price to be around $82,000. Bitcoin is currently trading at about $84,000, and reaching Citi's target would require a 35% price increase.

Citi believes that strong crypto market activity, more moderate macroeconomic conditions, and strong ETF inflows are the main reasons for this adjustment.
Illinois agrees to delay its 0.2% crypto tax until July 2027.
According to CoinWorld news, Illinois has agreed to postpone the enforcement date of its 0.2% crypto transaction tax from January 1, 2027 to July 1, 2027. According to a court motion reached by both parties, a joint court motion requests a preliminary injunction to block the January implementation. Illinois filed this request together with the plaintiffs, the Digital Chamber and the Illinois Blockchain Association, proposing July 1, 2027 as the alternative date. The document describes an agreement among the parties requesting court relief, rather than a final ruling on whether the tax is lawful. Under the requested schedule, enforcement would be delayed while the legal challenge continues. The Blockchain Association and the Crypto Innovation Council argued in an earlier preliminary injunction request that preparing for the January deadline would force their organizations and members to spend millions of dollars on compliance.

Analyst: NEAR price drops 13% due to security incident
According to news from Bijie, NEAR's price fell 13% on October 1 due to a security incident, after previously breaking through to $5.50 in September. The current support level at $4.34 has become a key level, and traders are assessing the October correction. NEAR's BSC hot wallet suffered a $3.8 million security breach, which affected market sentiment. Analysts pointed out that if buyers can hold the $4.34 support, the recent correction may only be a short-term adjustment, but if large-scale selling continues, the importance of this support level will further increase.
