U.S. labor data could set the tone for crypto markets as September begins, with Friday’s jobs report being the week’s main event. Nonfarm payrolls fell by 23,000 in July, while May and June were revised down by a combined 103,000, raising the stakes for the August reading. ADP private payrolls and JOLTS job openings will provide an early look at employment. A weaker jobs report could temper expectations for an interest-rate rise and weigh on U.S. Treasury yields and the dollar; a rebound could point the other way. On the crypto calendar, Russia starts the first large-scale phase of its…

Shiba Inu is back in the green territory after a long week of mixed price actions, showing notable price declines on most of its trading days. While momentum appears to be building again, its exchange activity confirms brewing demand, suggesting a gradual shift in market sentiment. 110 Billion $SHIB exit exchanges Per data provided by crypto analytics platform CryptoQuant, the Shiba Inu exchange netflow has flipped bullish, showing a negative balance of 110.59 billion $SHIB. This implies that the amount of $SHIB tokens moved out of exchanges amid growing demand is significantly greater than the amount of $SHIB returned to…

Reclassifying crypto as a “financial product” moves digital assets in Japan out of payment law and into securities law, meaning exchanges, token issuers, and traders now face the same disclosure, insider-trading, and conduct rules that apply to stocks and bonds. Japan’s National Diet gave final approval to this shift on July 15, 2026, amending the Financial Instruments and Exchange Act (FIEA) to cover roughly 105 crypto assets, including Bitcoin and Ether. The law is expected to take full effect during fiscal year 2027. This is not a rebranding exercise. It rewrites who regulates crypto in Japan, what exchanges must disclose,…

In a Sept. 8-11 Lido discussion, Commit-Boost contributor Jason Vranek argued that builders funding protocol-backed payments face costs from idle Ethereum, failed delivery, and offers they wanted to cancel. Those costs could make trusted connections more competitive. Meanwhile, Titan Builder said it expects validators to continue reaching it through relays that organize auctions and handle publication. An operator’s configuration helps determine which block-payment opportunities its validators can consider. For builders, the same settings help determine access to those validators. As of Sept. 13, Ethereum.org lists Glamsterdam as testing on devnets, with mainnet expected in the fourth quarter of 2026 and…

The Nov. 3 midterm elections will determine control of Congress for the final two years of U.S. President Donald Trump’s term, with all 435 House seats and 33 Senate seats on the ballot. The outcome could either preserve Republicans’ ability to advance Trump’s legislative agenda and confirm judicial and administration nominees, or give Democrats the power to block legislation, lead congressional investigations and constrain the White House. “Prediction markets are becoming a source of real-time information about the world, but that information is only as useful as the speed at which you can act on it,” Austin Federa, co-founder of…
