The Graph's Stake-Based Scaling takes effect on November 17, requiring indexers holding more than 40 million GRT to index more subgraphs to remain eligible for rewards.
Initial requirements mandate at least 10 subgraphs or one per 4 million GRT staked, whichever is greater, with the ratio gradually increasing to one per 1 million GRT.
The changes could increase indexing demand and operational pressure on large GRT holders while reshaping reward eligibility across The Graph's indexing network.
Bitcoin layer-2 yield opportunities are facing mounting sustainability and security concerns as venture-funded incentives dilute and investors chase increasingly risky returns, according to Two Prime CEO Alexander Blume.
Babylon holds approximately 40,800 BTC worth $3.28 billion while its BABY token inflation runs at 5.5%; Two Prime's alternative Axiom vault offers 1.61% net APY backed by borrower interest and $10–12 million in first-loss capital.
Shrinking incentive-driven yields could pressure Bitcoin layer-2 protocols and redirect capital toward lending-based strategies, although credit, smart-contract and bridge risks remain.
Twist Bioscience Corp (NASDAQ:TWST) shares are plunging Thursday after The Bear Cave, owned by Hunterbrook Media, said the life science tools company's stock may have outpaced fundamentals. The report raises valuation concerns around TWST, with the source framing the share price as potentially ahead of the company's fundamentals. The supplied context does not include a specific percentage decline, price level, price target, or additional details from the Bear Cave report. The immediate catalyst cited is the Bear Cave/Hunterbrook Media valuation critique.
Northwest European gasoline refining margins plunged by more than $7 on Thursday as rising oil prices erased gains from the previous session.
The European gasoline crack fell to $9.88 per barrel from $17.46, while ARA gasoline inventories increased 2.8% and Asian petrol margins dropped nearly $20 since late October.
Higher crude prices, growing inventories and weaker refining economics could continue pressuring gasoline margins and refinery profitability.
Lower freight rates could help West African crude cargoes attract buyers as weaker outright prices and softer physical crude markets put pressure on differentials.
Freight costs have fallen further from record highs on some routes, while Nigeria's Dangote refinery purchased several December-loading cargoes, including Nigerian crude.
Cheaper transportation could improve West African crude competitiveness and support demand, although pressure on physical crude differentials remains a concern.
Multiliquid has launched an institutional Treasury product offering continuous 3-month US T-Bill-linked yields with instant 24/7 redemptions for corporate cash balances.
The product offers indicative annualized yields of up to 3.5%, backed by tokenized government money market funds, and is live on Ethereum and Solana.
The launch could accelerate institutional adoption of tokenized real-world assets and increase demand for on-chain Treasury products.
Oil futures rebounded Thursday after Wednesday's selloff erased more than 8% from both major crude benchmarks, as traders reassessed the outlook for U.S.-Iran diplomacy.
Brent rose $2.77 to $97.39/bbl, while WTI gained $2.27 to $89.37/bbl, even as Middle Eastern exports recovered and global oil supply exceeded demand by 1.4 million b/d in October.
Falling US crude inventories and persistent Strait of Hormuz security risks could support prices, while diplomatic progress and growing supply surpluses could pressure further gains.
Slowing farmer grain sales could provide support for local cash prices and offer some underlying strength to grain futures.
Weekly export sales were at the upper end of estimates, while CBOT corn fell 0.7% and wheat gained 0.4%.
Reduced farmer selling could help stabilize or lift grain prices, although seasonal weakness and limited fundamental support could cap rallies.
US Midwest hard red winter wheat basis bids remained unchanged as farmer selling stayed slow amid limited available supplies.
USDA reported that 83% of winter wheat had been planted, while only 44% of the crop was rated good-to-excellent, below the 50% analyst estimate.
Slower planting and weaker crop conditions could support wheat prices, while potential Black Sea shipping disruptions easing through peace talks may limit further upside.
Ivory Coast's natural rubber production climbed to approximately 2 million metric tons in 2025 from 1.8 million tons in 2024, making it the world's second-largest producer. The country overtook its previous fourth-place ranking, while farmers increasingly shifted from cocoa to rubber and APROMAC reported processing capacity exceeding 2 million tons. Stable production in 2026 and further growth as young plantations mature could strengthen Ivory Coast's position in global rubber markets.
Oil futures rebounded Thursday after suffering an over 8% selloff in the previous session, with Brent rising to $97.39/bbl as traders reassessed the outlook for U.S.-Iran diplomacy and Middle Eastern supply disruptions. Middle Eastern oil exports recovered to an estimated 20.7 million barrels per day in October from 9.8 million in March, while global supply exceeded demand by 1.4 million b/d in October. Recovering supply and diplomatic progress could limit further oil price gains, although geopolitical risks and declining U.S. inventories may sustain volatility.
European shares fell on Thursday as a sharp technology selloff and weakness in defence stocks dragged the STOXX 600 down 0.38% to 654.87 points. European technology stocks plunged 3.2% to a nearly two-month low, while Rheinmetall sank 16.1% after cutting its 2026 sales forecast for the second time in three months. Continued AI spending uncertainty, geopolitical risks and rising oil prices could intensify pressure on European equities, particularly technology and defence stocks.
Soybean futures remain under pressure, falling 0.5% on the CBOT as expectations for a large crop yield and fund liquidation weigh on prices.
The market is oversold, with buyers emerging below $12, while substantial fund positioning leaves room for additional selling if yields come in high.
Soybeans could stabilize ahead of next week's WASDE report, but higher-than-expected yields could intensify downside pressure.
ICE canola futures fell to four-month lows Thursday, with January contracts down C$6.50 to C$761.80 per tonne as speculative selling pressured prices.
January canola broke below its 200-day moving average near C$766, while weaker Chicago soybeans, soyoil, European rapeseed and Malaysian palm oil added selling pressure.
Further weakness could push canola toward its next major technical support around C$750 per tonne.
US Midwest corn and soybean basis bids strengthened as low futures prices discouraged farmers from selling their crops.
Rain-related harvest delays further slowed cash sales, while the USDA reported soybean harvesting 88% complete and corn harvesting 74% complete.
Limited farmer selling could continue supporting local cash grain basis levels, although expectations for record-large soybean production and a near-record corn harvest could pressure prices.
ICE canola futures touched four-month lows on Thursday as speculative selling and weakness across global vegetable oil markets pressured prices.
January canola fell C$6.50 to C$761.80 per tonne, breaking below its 200-day moving average near C$766, with next major support around C$750.
Continued weakness in soybeans, soyoil, European rapeseed and Malaysian palm oil could intensify downside pressure on canola unless stronger crude oil provides additional support.
Gold futures extended their post-midterm rally, rising 0.9% to $4,110.80 per ounce as lower US Treasury yields and a weaker dollar boosted demand for non-yielding assets. The dollar fell to a one-month low, while silver slipped 0.2% to $52.16 per ounce. Upcoming US employment data could determine whether gold's recovery continues or faces pressure from renewed interest-rate hike expectations.

No additional price, volume, flow or trading-activity data was provided.
Gold futures extended their gains, rising 0.9% to $4,110.80 per ounce as falling US Treasury yields and a weaker dollar increased demand for non-yielding assets.
The dollar recently touched a one-month low, while shifting expectations around US fiscal stimulus and policy risks added support for gold.
Friday's US employment report could determine whether gold extends its recovery or faces renewed pressure from stronger expectations of Fed rate hikes.
US Treasury yields declined as investors sought safety amid falling equities, rising oil prices, and renewed uncertainty surrounding the Iran conflict.
The 10-year Treasury yield dropped 4.9 basis points to 4.843%, while the two-year yield fell 5.6 basis points to 4.525%, both reaching their lowest levels since September.
Persistent inflation concerns, resilient employment data, and geopolitical uncertainty could sustain demand for Treasuries while keeping pressure on equities and complicating the Federal Reserve's rate outlook.
The US dollar edged higher as oil prices rebounded around 2% following Wednesday's sharp decline, while investors assessed geopolitical risks and awaited key US payrolls data.
Weekly jobless claims fell to 189,000, matching a 57-year low, while markets priced in a 74.5% chance of at least a 25-basis-point Federal Reserve rate increase in December.
Persistent labor-market strength and inflation concerns could support further Fed tightening, potentially boosting the dollar while increasing pressure on other currencies.
Gold climbed to a more than two-week high, rising 0.9% to $4,095.49 per ounce as a weaker US dollar and declining Treasury yields supported bullion.
Prices surged nearly 3.4% on Wednesday, while the dollar reached its lowest level since September 30 and the 10-year Treasury yield fell to a near-two-month low.
Gold could face renewed downside pressure if Friday's US payrolls report strengthens expectations of a December Federal Reserve rate hike.
How investors stake ETH and SOL can significantly change how much of their staking rewards they ultimately keep, with exchanges retaining up to 35% and self-custody providers typically taking 5% to 15%.
Staking ETP sponsors retain approximately 5% to 25% of rewards, while ETP shares offer T+1 settlement compared with potentially weeks of unstaking delays for directly held tokens.
Growing awareness of reward deductions, custody risks and liquidity differences could increase demand for staking ETPs and put pressure on providers charging higher fees.
Gold has fallen approximately 25% from its late-January 2026 record near $5,600 to around $4,179 per ounce, creating what analysts describe as a potential buying opportunity ahead of India's Dhanteras festival.
Central banks purchased a record 289 tonnes in second-quarter 2026, while Indian gold ETFs attracted ₹4,451 crore in September inflows.
Easing Treasury yields and continued institutional demand could support gold prices, although further volatility remains possible.
Stacks Bond 3 has attracted 1,005 BTC, exceeding the combined 735 BTC committed to its first two bonds and marking a significant expansion in Bitcoin staking participation.
Across all three bonds, total commitments have reached 1,740 BTC, with participants eligible for approximately 3% annualized BTC yield paid weekly and Bond 3 scheduled to open around November 10.
Growing bond demand could strengthen BTC staking adoption and increase demand for STX, although larger bond allocations may reduce the rewards remaining for STX stakers.
Cardano faces a highly speculative 2,000% rally projection, but analysts remain divided over whether ADA can reclaim its previous all-time high.
Bullish analyst 360Trader targets $4.19, while key confirmation levels stand at $0.25 and $1.37; ADA remains near $0.19, more than 93% below its 2021 peak.
A confirmed technical reversal, ecosystem developments, and renewed altcoin demand could fuel a recovery, but failure to clear resistance could leave ADA in consolidation.
Anchorage Digital has applied for CFTC swap dealer registration to expand its institutional cryptocurrency options business under a federally regulated derivatives framework.
If approved, the firm expects to offer European-style Bitcoin and Ethereum options with maturities of up to one year, while meeting CFTC capital, risk management, and margin requirements.
The move could strengthen institutional access to regulated crypto derivatives and support greater demand for BTC and ETH options.
U.S. natural gas inventories climbed by 77 Bcf last week, expanding the surplus above the five-year seasonal average as the injection season extends into November.
Storage reached 3,801 Bcf as of October 30, standing 54 Bcf above the five-year average, while the build came in below analysts' 81 Bcf expectation.
Mild early November weather could support further inventory builds and maintain downward pressure on natural gas prices.
Brent crude jumped 3.00% intraday to $96.72 a barrel, according to the source. The rapid oil-price rise shifts focus back to inflation and energy costs, a channel that may pressure profit expectations for airlines, transport and energy-intensive sectors if gains persist, while energy-sector strength warrants tracking. The source says the key question is whether supply-demand, inventories and geopolitical risks keep providing support. No further price, volume, flow or trading-activity data were provided.
Greece's parliament has approved a 10% capital gains tax on cryptocurrency profits, introducing the country's first comprehensive legal framework for crypto taxation. Annual cryptocurrency gains of up to €500 will be exempt, with additional transparency and audit directives expected in the coming weeks. The new tax could increase selling pressure among Greek crypto investors and add another regulatory cost for cryptocurrency holders.
Indian jewellers expect stronger Dhanteras and Diwali sales following a 20-25% correction in gold prices from January's record highs, encouraging consumers to resume purchases. Industry leaders anticipate around 75 tonnes of gold sales during Dhanteras, while jewellers report a 40-50% increase in customer enquiries following the recent price decline. Strong festive and wedding demand could support gold consumption in India, potentially cushioning downward pressure on prices.
ARA jet fuel inventories surged nearly 29% week over week to 490,000 metric tons as large imports from the Middle East and Nigeria boosted supply. Gasoil stocks also increased 3.5% to 1.78 million tons, while total ARA product inventories climbed to 4.32 million tons, their highest level since mid-October. Rising refined-product inventories could pressure European fuel prices and weigh on refining margins if supply continues to outpace demand.
$631 million in crypto long positions were liquidated within 24 hours as leveraged traders absorbed heavy losses during volatile market swings. Bitcoin accounted for $200M-$410M in liquidations, while Ethereum saw $170M-$250M, with Binance representing approximately 40%-50% of total liquidations. Persistent leverage and concentrated forced selling could intensify volatility and increase the risk of further liquidation cascades across crypto markets.
Wood Mackenzie warns that 20% of the world's refineries face closure risk as global oil demand is projected to peak at 108 million barrels per day in 2032 before entering structural decline. The report highlights falling or negative operating cash margins and shrinking investment windows as refineries face mounting pressure to adapt. Long-term demand uncertainty could pressure refinery profitability and weigh on investment in refining capacity, while near-term geopolitical risks continue to influence crude prices.

The East region added 13 Bcf to 926 Bcf, while the Midwest added 23 Bcf to 1,111 Bcf.
Continued inventory builds could pressure natural gas prices if storage growth signals sufficient supply relative to demand.
U.S. working natural gas inventories increased by 77 Bcf to 3,801 Bcf, according to the EIA.
The latest reported storage change confirms a net build in domestic natural gas inventories.
The inventory increase could pressure natural gas prices if supply continues to outpace demand.

Broadcom, Nvidia, Oracle, Tesla, and other technology names traded lower as investors reassessed Big Tech spending growth, with one analyst expecting capital expenditure growth to peak in 2027 rather than 2028/2029.
Continued pressure on technology valuations and expectations for slower data-center investment growth could intensify downside risks across the broader equity market.
Corn futures edged lower as traders await fresh market catalysts, with December corn down 0.4% to $4.42½ per bushel on the CBOT.
China has expressed interest in purchasing more U.S. agricultural products if both sides roll back reciprocal tariffs, raising the possibility of additional corn purchases.
A potential U.S.-China trade improvement could support corn demand, but futures may remain pressured until concrete buying developments emerge.
Zilliqa plans to abandon its standalone Layer 1 network and transition to an Ethereum Layer 2 designed for regulated institutions, citing insufficient usage to sustain independent operations.
The proposed Zilliqa Institutional Layer will use Ethereum for settlement and introduce built-in identity, compliance mechanisms and permissioned markets for verified participants.
The pivot could give Zilliqa access to Ethereum's security and institutional markets, but its long-term success will depend on adoption of the new network and execution of the transition.
Robusta coffee futures rose 1.7% to $3,281 per ton, recovering from last week's 2.5-year low as traders monitor Vietnam's ongoing harvest.
Vietnam's crop is expected to deliver output broadly equivalent to last year, while New York cocoa fell 4.6% to $5,203 per ton, hitting a one-month low amid sluggish demand and rising exchange inventories.
Expected Vietnamese supply could limit further robusta gains, while weak cocoa demand and elevated stocks may keep cocoa prices under pressure.
Janus Henderson and Centrifuge have launched JQQQ, an institutionally managed blockchain-native fund designed to track the Nasdaq-100 Index, bringing a major equity benchmark directly onto public blockchain infrastructure.
The fund launches exclusively on Stellar, while Janus Henderson's broader onchain platform already includes more than $1 billion in institutional strategies.
The launch could expand institutional tokenization and create new onchain investment and collateral opportunities, although access is restricted to eligible investors and the fund is not available to U.S. persons.
Gold and silver have rebounded from recent corrections, with gold climbing to around $4,130 per ounce and silver moving above $52 on November 5, supported by a weaker US dollar, falling bond yields and renewed Diwali demand.
Gold continues to benefit from central-bank purchases and safe-haven demand, while silver receives additional support from industrial demand in solar energy, electric vehicles and electronics.
Further dollar weakness and lower bond yields could support both metals, although silver's greater volatility may create larger price swings.
WTI and Brent crude futures rebounded after suffering heavy post-U.S. midterm losses, with WTI rising 1.9% to $89.84 and Brent climbing 3% to $97.44 per barrel.
The recovery follows a sell-off that analysts described as potentially overdone, while optimism over Middle East diplomacy and the possibility of increased oil supplies continues to influence market sentiment.
Further diplomatic progress and additional Middle Eastern oil flows could pressure crude prices, even as technical buying supports a short-term recovery.
RedStone has integrated price and net asset value feeds alongside its RedStone Settle rapid-settlement solution into Tether's Hadron platform, expanding its institutional tokenization capabilities.
The November 5 integration gives institutions and governments using Hadron access to RedStone's pricing data and settlement tools directly within the platform.
The partnership could accelerate institutional adoption of tokenized assets and increase demand for blockchain-based pricing and settlement infrastructure.
Canton will test a new traffic-based reward calculation for eligible apps in December 2026, linking Canton Coin rewards to the network activity generated by each app's transactions.
Canton's Super Validators have approved the proposed formula, but implementing it still requires a separate governance decision.
The test could establish a new incentive model for Canton ecosystem apps and potentially increase the importance of transaction activity in reward distribution.
Bitcoin and major cryptocurrencies extended their gains as a broad risk-asset rally and a $730 million crypto liquidation wave fueled a short squeeze, pushing total crypto market capitalization to $2.66 trillion.
Short liquidations surged to $448 million from $179 million a day earlier, while U.S. spot Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs recorded $75 million and $53 million in net inflows, respectively.
Continued short covering and renewed ETF demand could support further crypto gains, although mixed performance across major altcoins may limit the breadth of the rally.

The Federal Reserve and OCC contacted banks to check for unusual transactions or service disruptions, while Binance reported recovering 90%-95% of the stolen assets with help from Tether and Circle freezes.
The investigation and renewed calls for offshore exchange oversight could intensify regulatory pressure on the crypto industry and weigh on market confidence.
Poland's central bank governor Adam Glapinski signaled continued potential gold purchases, saying he sees no reason not to buy more after reserves reached 700 tons.

Continued central bank gold accumulation could provide additional long-term support for gold prices.
Gold has corrected more than 20% from its January 2026 record high, but Axis Securities expects prices to recover 20-25% by Dhanteras 2027, targeting Rs.1.65 lakh-Rs.1.71 lakh per 10 grams.
Central bank buying remains a key support, with approximately 346 tonnes of net purchases in H1 2026, while global gold ETFs attracted $30.7 billion in Q3 inflows.
Renewed investment demand and potential monetary easing could support gold's recovery, although elevated interest rates and a stronger US dollar may limit gains.
ICE canola futures moved lower during Thursday's overnight session, pressured by weakness across global vegetable oil markets.
Chicago soyoil, European rapeseed and Malaysian palm oil also traded lower, while crude oil gained amid renewed US-Iran war concerns following fires involving two vessels and a tugboat in the Strait of Hormuz.
Continued weakness in competing vegetable oils could pressure canola futures, while geopolitical tensions and the Canadian government's upcoming budget may add market volatility.
Gate CEO Lin Han says crypto exchanges should be able to withstand the complete theft of their online wallets without exposing customer funds, highlighting the need for stronger security standards after Binance's record-breaking hack.
Gate is introducing Proof of Security (PoSEC), measuring whether cold storage assets cover 100% of customer liabilities, while reporting 104.58% cold storage coverage and $8.69 billion in reserves.
Broader adoption of PoSEC could increase transparency, strengthen exchange security expectations, and intensify pressure on crypto platforms to demonstrate that customer assets remain protected during breaches.

Wheat, corn and soybeans are expected to open higher at the Chicago Board of Trade, with projected gains of 3-4 cents, 1-2 cents and 3-5 cents per bushel, respectively.
A weaker US dollar supported wheat competitiveness, while USDA weekly export sales reached 538,000 metric tons for wheat, 1,294,600 tons for corn and 1,456,100 tons for soybeans.
Improved Black Sea export prospects and larger US harvest estimates could limit further upside across the grain complex.
