The crypto market is poised for a dynamic week as the U.S. government shutdown threatens to delay the approval of new exchange-traded funds, potentially impacting market sentiment and macroeconomic indicators. In the UK, retail investors will soon have access to crypto exchange-traded notes (ETNs) for the first time in four years, following the Financial Conduct Authority's decision to lift a previous ban. On the blockchain front, Hedera is preparing to upgrade its mainnet to enable batch transactions, enhancing its network capabilities. Additionally, Jito DAO is conducting a vote to increase the number of validators on Solana's StakeNet platform, which could influence the network's decentralization and performance.
