๐จ Tomorrowโs U.S. CPI release is officially the biggest market catalyst of the month.
With the CLARITY Act pushed to September and 3 FOMC dissents raising pressure for a potential September Fed rate hike if inflation stays sticky, a upside miss tomorrow could hurt markets far more than usual.
๐ U.S. Headline CPI (YoY):
โข Last CPI: 3.5%
โข Expected: 3.4%
Pending (Releasing tomorrow at 8:30 AM ET) Why the stakes are higher this time:
Fed Rate Hike Risk: Sticky inflation puts a September rate hike squarely back on the table for the Fed.
Regulatory Intermission: With the CLARITY Act delayed until September, risk assets lack a nearby policy buffer.Volatility is almost guaranteed.

Tried something different today.
Bought a pizza using crypto, but without any crypto card. Just used the @0FiatHQ app, added pizza to my cart and paid directly from my wallet at checkout.
Honestly, this is how I imagined using crypto in real life. ๐
BlackRock, Visa, Mastercard, DTCC, Standard Chartered, Galaxy, ICE, MoneyGram, SBI Group, Global Payments, and Sumitomo are joining Circle as founding validators for Arc.
More than 100 ecosystem and institutional builders are already live on the private mainnet. ๐
Circle just revealed the founding validator cohort for Arc, its blockchain built for global payments, financial markets, and AI-powered economic activity.
Arc is already live in private mainnet with 100+ ecosystem partners and is set for public mainnet on Sept. 16, 2026.
Crypto is not easy.
Coldcard wallet case once again have given us a lesson.
$89 million gone with just one vulnerability that was even known 4 years before this happened. A user pointed out this on reddit. Coldcard team neglected.
So what we should do now?
1. Keep balance diversified in different wallets
2. Keep all your secret keys also written and keep in safe box.
3. Change the wallet regularly
4. More importantly, try to encash the profit. Enjoy a portion of it. Of course build long term portfolio but dont forget to enjoy.
