NVIDIA’s board announced an investigation on Sunday, and released a statement on November 10 (Eastern Time) confirming it has retained former acting U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of New York (SDNY) Joon H. Kim and his new firm Wachtell, Lipton, Rosen & Katz to conduct a "full, independent investigation" into CEO Jensen Huang’s incident. The board also noted there is currently no reason to believe the company’s confidential information has been compromised, and Jensen Huang has voiced support for the probe and pledged full cooperation. Public records show Joon H. Kim served as acting SDNY U.S. Attorney from 2017 to 2018. SDNY is widely regarded as the most prestigious federal prosecutor’s office in the U.S., commonly nicknamed the "Sovereign District". He oversaw more than 220 assistant U.S. attorneys, with his jurisdiction covering cases of economic espionage, trade secret theft, sanctions violations and cybercrime. In March 2021, Kim was appointed by New York State Attorney General Letitia James to co-lead an independent investigation into sexual harassment allegations against Governor Andrew Cuomo alongside Anne Clark; shortly after the investigation’s report was released, Cuomo resigned in August 2021. In December 2023, he was commissioned by the FDIC Board’s Special Review Committee to independently investigate internal harassment and discrimination allegations at the agency.

Wall Street Journal chief economics reporter Nick Timiraos, widely known as the "Fed’s mouthpiece," wrote in a recent article that the rebound in U.S. inflation is breaking the gradual pace of rate hikes the Federal Reserve had sought to maintain. Fed officials spent all of October trying to quash market expectations of consecutive rapid rate hikes in the near term, but the latest released data has not aligned with that effort. Data released Tuesday by the U.S. Department of Labor showed that the annualized increase in core Consumer Price Index (CPI), which excludes food and energy prices, hit 3.7% in the three months ending in October, up sharply from 1.6% in the three months ending in July. The report has further cemented market expectations that the Fed will raise interest rates at its December 8-9 policy meeting. The real debate has shifted from whether a rate hike is needed to how quickly monetary policy should be tightened. The article notes that the Fed now faces two options: continue with its previously planned pace of two to three more 25-basis-point rate hikes; or act faster, by implementing consecutive hikes or even a single 50-basis-point increase to deliberately cool economic activity and curb inflation. On Tuesday, remarks from multiple Fed officials indicated that the latter option is drawing more attention. The article states that the Fed’s core dilemma is now clear: persistent, broad-based inflation calls for the central bank to act faster, while cooling AI investment and tightening financial conditions raise the risk of over-tightening. Whether the December meeting will deliver a single 50-basis-point hike or two consecutive 25-basis-point increases will be a key test of the Fed’s policy trade-offs.

Aave risk service provider LlamaRisk has submitted a proposal on the protocol’s governance forum, recommending that Aave V3 Core concentrate on mature, highly liquid collateral, while Aave V4 will support a wider range of assets through risk premiums and isolation mechanisms. The proposal aims to freeze the reserve pools of assets including rsETH, osETH, LBTC, tBTC, and rETH on Aave V3 Core. As of November 9, the collateral value tied to the proposal is roughly $1.33 billion, corresponding to approximately $1.03 billion in debt. Per the proposal, following the freeze, new deposits of these assets will be halted, and their loan-to-value (LTV) ratios will be cut to zero—meaning users can no longer initiate new loans using these assets as collateral. Existing positions may still be held, repaid, or migrated. LlamaRisk plans to coordinate with asset issuers and key borrowers to shift positions to either the collateral retained in V3 Core or Aave V4. If the relevant exposure does not decline, future steps could include gradually lowering the liquidation threshold based on asset conditions, or considering raising borrowing rates in the final phase.

According to people familiar with the matter, Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang walked into the company’s headquarters in Santa Clara, California, on Monday and chaired the usual morning meeting with senior executives. The sources said that at the start of the closed-door meeting, Huang first apologized to employees over the recent controversy. He took no questions and quickly shifted the discussion to business operations and the day’s key agenda items. Huang also came to the office for a meeting on Tuesday. Nvidia is set to release its quarterly earnings report in one week. Insiders at the company said Huang is trying to create an atmosphere of "business as usual", but the mood inside the firm is downbeat.

Cross-chain protocol Across announced it has regained control of its official website domain name, with all systems now operating normally. The project stated it will fully compensate all affected users and publish a full post-mortem analysis report in the coming days. As previously disclosed by Across, attackers seized control of the domain via a social engineering attack on domain registrar Namecheap. During the period the domain was compromised, security response team SEAL 911 helped flag it as a phishing site. Across noted that some wallets or browsers may still show phishing warnings, which are expected to be resolved shortly.
