Crypto markets will be dominated by macro events as the war with Iran enters its fourth week.
However, away from the global stage, traders will be participating in a series of supply events while Aave prepares to deploy its v4 platform and hard forks of the Akash and Casper networks are imminent.
Several Federal Reserve spokespersons also attended the meeting, with Governor Stephen Miran’s scheduled attendance at the New York Digital Asset Summit as a highlight.
On the earnings side, Wall Street will take a fresh look at less popular stock company GameStop (GME), which has a Bitcoin vault of 4,710 BTC, along with reports from the likes of BitGo, a provider of crypto services to institutions.
