North Korea’s Kim Jong-un offers to restore inter-Korean hotline

Kim Jong un

North Korean leader Kim Jong-un said that he is willing to restore an important communication hotline with South Korea as a possible proposal for reconciliation.
He also accused the United States of proposing talks without changing its “hostile policy” towards North Korea.
In August of this year, Pyongyang cut off the hotline to protest the South Korean-US military exercise.
North Korea and South Korea are still at war technically because there was no peace agreement at the end of the Korean War in 1953.
In the past few years, the communication hotline between the two has been cut off and restored many times.
In 2020, after the failure of the North-South summit, Pyongyang bombed the North-South Korea border office established to improve communications.


World’s Richest Family Reveals $5 Billion Worth of Stock Picks


Walton Family

The Walton family is revealing its stock options, revealing that it held nearly $5 billion in stock at the end of June through a little-known company that helped invest in Wal-Mart’s wealth.
According to a document submitted by the US Securities and Exchange Commission to the family investment company WIT LLC, this is an increase from the $3.8 billion at the end of December last year. WIT LLC is the acronym for the Walton investment team that began disclosing its holdings this year. Most of the funds are invested in low-cost exchange-traded funds. The US Securities and Exchange Commission regulations require investors who manage more than $100 million in US stocks to disclose their holdings, but family offices can call for the confidentiality of these documents. Walton Enterprises has never submitted the so-called 13F quarterly report under this name. Other high-profile family offices, including the family office of Renaissance Technology founder James Simmons, have begun to submit applications

Cardano Cryptocurrency

Cardano’s ADA token surged 150% in August, becoming the third largest cryptocurrency in the world by market value. But its victory seems to be short-lived. The cryptocurrency market seemed to have found its sea leg when it returned to the green market on September 30. Cardano has risen by 1.95% to a price of US$2.11, but has been unable to recover so far to rank third. The cryptocurrency market initially dismissed China’s statement, believing it was just another intimidation strategy. However, large wig companies did not respond in the same way.
Binance and Huobi, the world’s largest cryptocurrency exchanges, announced that they will no longer accept new registrations from users outside of China. Sparkpool is the second largest Ethereum mining pool in the world and will close operations in less than 24 hours. Moreover, Alibaba, China’s e-commerce giant, announced that it will no longer sell mining equipment.
