There has been a buzz around Bitchat, the offline messaging app built by Jack Dorsey that lets phones talk over Bluetooth with no internet. This week it topped France's App Store social chart. In this thread: how it works, how safe it is, and how bitcoin moves on it offline👇🏻🧵
NEW: Robinhood's Q3 earnings reveal a 55% plunge in crypto revenue to $120M, while options revenue surged 31% to $399M.
Total revenue grew 12% to $1.42B, but crypto weakness weighed on profits.
The takeaway? Robinhood is diversifying, but crypto activity still matters.

What a time to be alive 😅 we are living this "Katika tamthilia hiyo, wakati wananchi wanateseka, Meya anashauri kuwa wasanii na waimbaji walipwe ili waendelee kutumbuiza (michezo ya kila aina na nyimbo za kizalendo) ili wananchi wasahau shida zao."😂😂

NEW: 🇰🇪 Safaricom CEO Peter Ndegwa says M-PESA's next phase is letting users pay, save, invest and insure in one place, tech-ish reports; he cited ~150M transactions a day. Safaricom's own data shows 46.4B transactions in the year to March 2026.

BREAKING: Anthropic just filed for its IPO, aiming to list in November. The filing shows $16.3B in first-half 2026 revenue, an $80.7B net loss and $112.4B in cash. Over 1,900 customers pay it $1M+ a year. No price range yet. Ready to go all in on Anthropic stocks?
AI: Calpers cut its combined direct holdings in the Magnificent Seven by 26% in H1 2026, shifting into private equity. Deputy CIO Anton Orlich says public valuations look expensive. A $600B+ pension fund is trimming the AI trade's biggest names.
CONFIRMED: CoinDCX says it lost 15.99M USDT after a sweeping service failed to move deposits out of retired wallets compromised in its July 2025 hack. Its CEO had called the reports a false alarm. The exchange is absorbing the loss. Old wallets still need guarding.
BY THE NUMBERS: Galaxy Research says 11.1M of the roughly 20.1M bitcoin mined, about 55%, sits in addresses it cannot tie to any exchange, fund or government. Alex Thorn says much is likely self-custody, though some is lost. ETFs get the headlines, the biggest slice has no name.
SECURITY: Electrum patched a bug that let rogue servers swap pending bitcoin payments for fake ones. Users who hit Replace-by-Fee to speed one up signed their coins to the attacker. At least one lost funds. Version 4.8.3, out Oct. 24, fixes it. Update before you bump fees.
MARKETS: Chamath Palihapitiya says many AI neoclouds look poorly funded and badly run. He expects data center delays to leave chips idle or short of their financing costs in 2027. Nasdaq futures sit near 29,080, down from above 30,000 this month. Lenders are picking winners.
