Japan's electricity prices hit a four-year high as fuel costs rise.
According to a report by Gelonghui, Japan's next-day spot electricity prices climbed to their highest level in nearly four years, driven by the dual impact of rising fuel costs and reduced power generation caused by scheduled maintenance. According to data released by the Japan Electric Power Exchange (JEPX) on Monday, the national electricity price surged by more than a quarter week-on-week, rising to 31.15 yen per kilowatt-hour (approximately $0.19). Spot electricity prices rose in all major electricity-consuming regions, with Tokyo up 19% from a week earlier, while prices in the Kansai and Chubu regions surged 61% and 19% respectively over the same period. In addition, persistent fuel supply disruptions caused by the US-Iran war have led to a sharp spike in liquefied natural gas (LNG) prices, and LNG is a key fuel in Japan's energy mix, which has also prompted some countries to turn back to coal for energy security. According to JEPX data, while fuel supplies remain tight, Japan's domestic power generation is also declining. As some power generation facilities gradually undergo routine maintenance ahead of winter, available generation capacity on Monday decreased by approximately 12% compared with the same period last month.

The Zcash team plans to allocate a separate viewing key for ZEC swaps.
CoinWorld news, according to Coindesk, the Zcash development team zakura plans to assign an independent viewing key to each ZEC swap conducted through NEAR intents, in order to prevent future quantum computers from reconstructing users' complete transaction histories via the refund addresses publicly exposed on the NEAR chain. The scheme limits the scope of potential leakage to a single swap, while the spending key remains held by the user's main account, and wallet recovery is supported through private information retrieval technology. zakura stated that wallets such as vizor, which are built on its open-source library, may add this feature within the coming weeks, while hardware wallets will need to wait for firmware support. No quantum computer has yet been proven capable of breaking such keys.
