Markets

Ah, What to Know:
Well, brace yourself! The crypto markets, like the rest of us, may find themselves completely distracted by the ever-thrilling U.S. government shutdown in the coming week. Who needs clear economic data when you can enjoy a fantastic game of “What Does the Government Think They’re Doing?” Traders, naturally, will be scrambling around like mice looking for cheese in the dark, unable to find a clear catalyst for their positions.
And while the government is in disarray, across the pond, in the land of fog and Brexit, something entirely different is afoot. Yes, U.K. retail investors will FINALLY be able to get their hands on crypto exchange-traded notes (ETNs), something they haven’t seen in four long years. The Financial Conduct Authority, probably feeling generous, decided to lift a ban that was imposed because the market had “evolved” and these products had somehow become “better understood.” Imagine that – evolution in finance!
But wait, the crypto rollercoaster doesn’t end there. Hedera, the unsung hero of the blockchain world, is about to upgrade its mainnet to introduce batch transactions. For all the non-crypto geeks out there, this means faster and more efficient operations. Oh joy, the world of crypto finally catches up to the 21st century! Meanwhile, Jito DAO is holding a vote to decide whether to double the validators on the Solana platform, probably so they can, you know, “move the Jito Stake Pool into a more productive economic equilibrium.” Just another day in the world of crypto, right?
