According to the BBC, Rockstar Games released a 26-minute preview of Grand Theft Auto 6, giving fans their first detailed look at the long-awaited title after more than 18 months since the last official glimpse. The extended look debuted on Netflix six hours before going live on YouTube and showed improved graphics, detailed environments, car chases and shoot-outs. The preview focused on protagonists Jason Duval and Lucia Camino, whose relationship sits at the center of the game’s story. Developers said in a preview published by IGN that the pair’s storyline can be affected by player actions, although players can opt out of developing their bond. The footage also showed players switching control between the two characters at different points. Fans praised the visuals, with the game’s photorealistic faces, lifelike movement and detailed locations drawing strong reaction online. The preview also showed the fictional Florida-inspired state of Leonida, along with armed heists, criminal underworld scenes, satirical references to US culture and optional side activities. Rockstar said GTA 6 will launch as a single-player experience, while the company has not yet given news on any online mode. The game is due to launch on 19 November. Rockstar also said next month it is due to appear at an employment tribunal in Scotland over claims it illegally sacked a group of former employees who tried to form a union; the company denies the accusations and says they were dismissed for gross misconduct.

South Korea's Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism said on Friday it will fine people who illegally resell concert and sports event tickets up to 50 times the sale price as part of a crackdown on ticket scalping. According to Sina Finance, people who report illegal ticket purchases or resales may receive rewards of up to half of the scalper's fine. The ministry said the measures took effect on Friday under enforcement decrees for the revised Public Performance Act and National Sports Promotion Act. The revised laws, amended in February, ban buying tickets for resale and selling tickets at inflated prices, regardless of whether automated software was used to obtain them. Under the new rules, ticket sellers and online platforms must take steps to prevent illegal buying, selling, and resale. These include verifying user identities, operating reporting systems, and limiting the visibility of posts linked to suspected illegal transactions. Platforms must also restrict related posts when requested by designated reporting agencies. The South Korean government said those agencies will be allowed to request information from ticket companies and online platforms about suspected scalpers, including the identities of people posting ticket sales information and their internet records. Fines for illegal resellers will depend on the number of tickets involved and the amount of sales proceeds, with penalties ranging from two to five times the sale price. According to Sina Finance, the ministry said people who report illegal ticket purchases may receive rewards of up to 50 million won, or about $16,140, while those who report illegal ticket sales may receive rewards of up to 50% of the offender's fine.

In addition, the company applied for railway freight subsidies and preferential port transshipment rates for imported bauxite, with annual related subsidies of about $70 million. Rusal also asked the government to support the affected regions if the plan goes ahead.

Zach Pandl said Bitcoin’s 90-day correlation with the Nasdaq 100 has fallen from above 60% to about 33%, while its correlation with gold has risen from near zero at the start of the year to above 50%. According to Odaily, he said investors are refocusing on Bitcoin’s scarcity and store-of-value role as the “debasement trade” returns, with U.S. federal debt topping $40 trillion and long-term Treasury yields moving higher. Grayscale said Bitcoin, created after the 2008 financial crisis, has no central issuer and a fixed supply cap, and can serve alongside gold as a scarce and liquid alternative asset. Grayscale added that Bitcoin may be entering a more favorable market environment.
