Traders are positioning for Warsh's Jackson Hole address at 22:00 Beijing time / 14:00 UTC Aug 28. July PCE is still elevated at 3.7% y/y, Fed officials are split on how restrictive rates are, and futures price about a 36% chance of a September hike.

NUVA brings nvPRIME-backed USDC lending to Morpho through RockawayX – Link
A while ago, I wrote that one of my biggest issues with RWAs is that bringing assets onchain means almost nothing without practical utility across DeFi.
NUVA’s new RockawayX-curated vault is a step toward solving that. Users can deposit USDC and lend against nvPRIME collateral for a target return of 7.5%, with rewards distributed through Mer…

Grayscale's Zcash ETF debuts on NYSE Arca, then cools – Link

BlackRock cut the minimum for in-kind BTC-to-IBIT share conversions by 96%, from $25M to $1M. Cumulative in-kind conversions have topped $5B, up from $3B in October.

A wallet linked to Bitkub co-founder Sakolkorn Sakavee transferred roughly $26.1M in ZEC to Hyperliquid and swapped into 238 BTC over the past day.
Matters because: Large identifiable-holder rotation out of a recently pumped asset into BTC may suggest profit-taking and a preference for the more liquid, ETF-backed asset.

A view count marked ≈ was rounded by Telegram before we ever saw it — t.me prints views in full below 1,000 and to three significant figures above, so ≈1,200,000 means somewhere between 1,150,000 and 1,249,999.
