Deutsche Bank: Central banks may incorporate Bitcoin and gold into key reserves by 2030.
According to Bloomberg, Deutsche Bank stated that central banks may include Bitcoin and gold in their key reserves before 2030. The research points out that central banks became net buyers of gold after the 2008 financial crisis, and currently, global central banks hold over 36,000 tons of gold; the share of the dollar in global reserves has dropped from 60% in 2000 to 41% in 2025, driving net inflows of $5 billion and $4.7 billion into gold and Bitcoin ETFs, respectively, in June.

U.S. media: The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics is expected to release the CPI report during the shutdown.
According to the New York Times, a U.S. government source stated that despite the federal government shutdown, the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) is still preparing to release the CPI data for September, though the exact release time is still unclear, and it is almost certain that it will not be on the originally scheduled date of October 15. The statistical agency has halted all operations during the funding interruption, thus failing to release the non-farm payroll report as planned last week. According to government sources, the agency has begun recalling some staff to complete the report preparation work. This decision to release data appears to be related to the annual Social Security cost adjustment process. This adjustment is based on third-quarter inflation data, so the delay in releasing September's price data may postpone the announcement of the cost of living adjustment. Additionally, other foreign media reported that the BLS plans to release the September CPI data by the end of the month.
