📊 DATA: Uniswap just crossed 7M swaps in a day, roughly 82 per second.
The catch: recent data showed about $44M in LP fees over 30 days, but only ~$4M accrued to the protocol. More activity still doesn’t mean proportional UNI value capture.

🔷 Ethereum has a 79.5% chance of trading above $2,500 in September.
But traders are also betting on moves at the other end of the range, making volatility—not direction—the clearest signal.

🔐 SECURITY: TAC has been offline for more than 10 days after an exploit drained 2.99B TAC from its bonded staking pool.
The Foundation will replace 1.26B TAC from treasury reserves. Another 1.66B attacker-linked TAC sitting on BNB Chain still has no final treatment.

🏛️ POLICY: The SEC wants to let public blockchains hold Wall Street’s official shareholder records.
The catch: a registered transfer agent would still control the legal record, and wallet addresses alone would not satisfy shareholder identity rules.

☀️ NEW PREDICTION MARKET: Solana reaching $110 in September is barely a coin flip.
Prediction market odds put a touch above that level at 51.5%, with traders pricing a volatile month rather than a clean move in either direction.

🏛️ POLICY: Crypto spent $206M on politics. Now it wants rules that won’t disappear with the next administration.
The priorities: finish market structure, open banking access, fix crypto tax rules and protect noncustodial software from money-transmitter treatment.

💧 NEW PREDICTION MARKET: XRP’s clearest September line is $1.40.
The prediction market gives XRP an 82% chance of trading above that level, but the broader odds point to sharp moves in both directions—not a straightforward bullish call.

🏛️ POLICY: Lazarus-linked wallets reportedly sold $30M+ of Bitcoin through Hyperliquid as its US entry talks take shape.
What matters now is the plumbing: if Bitnomial stays separate from Hyperliquid’s offshore market, the sanctions risk looks very different than if the two share liquidity.

#promoted

Strategy has spent $635.2M trying to pull STRC back to $100, but it still trades near $97.
Only $364.8M remains under the buyback authorization. By Sept. 8, the bigger question is whether investors will support STRC at par without Strategy doing the buying.

📊 DATA: Bitcoin fell below $77K even as US labor data softened.
The pressure is elsewhere: oil is above $90, Treasury yields are rising and markets still put September hike odds near 66%. Payrolls on Sept. 4 could decide whether that changes.

₿ NEW PREDICTION MARKET: Bitcoin traders are betting on volatility, not direction.
The odds of BTC trading above $80K and below $75K in September both stand at 73.5%, with Fed policy and inflation data likely to decide which level breaks first.

🔐 SECURITY: Injective stopped producing blocks for nearly four hours while validators rolled out an emergency fix for an exploit tied to ~$4.9M moved to Ethereum.
Injective calls it an upgrade, not a halt. The patch changed core chain code; consensus and staked INJ were not compromised.

🏛️ POLICY: Citi expects stablecoins to reach $1.9T by 2030. Wall Street wants that money moving through its own rails.
Banks are building stablecoin, custody and tokenized-deposit products so customers don’t have to leave the regulated system to use on-chain dollars.

Cardano’s committee renewal cleared the SPO threshold by just 0.18 percentage points.
The close call came from non-voting stake: billions of ADA behind pools that never cast a ballot still counted against passage.

🏛️ POLICY: DeFi Technologies missed Nasdaq’s Sept. 1 deadline with DEFT still below $1.
It isn’t delisted yet. Nasdaq can grant another 180 days if the company qualifies; otherwise DEFT could receive a delisting notice and appeal.

📊 DATA: 96.6% of the open interest on Coinbase’s derivatives dashboard is already on Deribit.
The Sept. 9 migration covers only ~$227M at Coinbase International Exchange. What changes is how those positions trade: they’ll be settled, moved and reopened under Deribit’s rules.

MultiversX plans to pause new transactions for about 24 minutes on Sept. 10, then cut block times from 6 seconds to 600 ms.
As of Sept. 1, 95.35% of its 5,171 nodes were still on the old software.
