I. Crypto Market Overview

Key Takeaways

1.

Macro Environment

Fed officials signaled patience on rates after September’s 25bp hike, cutting October hike odds to 25% as soft jobs data and bond yield spikes reshaped expectations. Eurozone inflation hit 3.8%, the highest since 2023, driven by fuel costs amid ongoing Iran-related energy disruptions. Oil prices retreated Friday as U.S.-Iran diplomacy advanced, easing some inflationary pressure but leaving geopolitical risk elevated ahead of next week’s FOMC minutes.

Crypto Market

Crypto markets traded mixed over the past 12 hours as BTC slipped 2.01% to $84,802 and ETH fell 2.15% to $2,680 following profit-taking after BTC briefly touched $87K. Altcoins diverged sharply: TRON ecosystem led gains with JST up 7.29% on $30T transaction volume milestone, while WLD rose 6.11% and ZRO gained 5.03% on cross-chain expansion. BLAST crashed 46.97% after announcing L2 shutdown due to unsustainable economics, forcing user withdrawals by Oct 26.

Today's Outlook

Blast L2 shutdown dominates today’s agenda as users face urgent asset migration deadlines and temporary withdrawal suspensions during Lido position unwinding. Markets await next week’s FOMC minutes and U.S. CPI data while monitoring whether BTC can reclaim $85K support amid weakening rate hike expectations. Institutional flows remain supportive with spot BTC ETFs logging $103M inflows to kick off Uptober despite broader altcoin weakness.
