The Standard Chartered and Animoca Brands joint venture previously targeted retail access as early as the end of 2026, but its CEO declined to reaffirm that timeline. Standard Chartered-backed stablecoin venture Anchorpoint says it will take a cautious approach to opening its Hong Kong dollar-backed stablecoin to retail users, declining to confirm a launch date after rival HSBC rolled out RedCoin, <a href="https://www.scmp.com/business/cryptocurrency/article/3372060/standard-chartered-led-anchorpoint-plans-retail-stablecoin-hsbc-redcoin-launches" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">>according</a> to the South China Morning Post.

Electrum wallet patches critical vulnerability that could let attackers redirect funds
According to CoinWorld news, the Electrum wallet fixed a high-risk vulnerability over the weekend that allowed malicious servers to manipulate pending Bitcoin transactions and redirect funds to addresses controlled by attackers. The vulnerability affects all versions prior to 4.8.3, and a fix has now been released. At least one user has confirmed losing funds due to the vulnerability. The attack exploited the wallet's trust model for unconfirmed transactions, allowing attackers to interfere with users' real transactions by forging transactions. Electrum developer Sombernight pointed out that attackers could deceive users by forging the output address of a transaction to match the last four characters of the user's intended address. The fix for the vulnerability was marked in the codebase on October 23, and the binary was released the following day. Users who are unable to update immediately should manually verify the output address and amount.
