With US markets on pause for Labor Day, derivatives are flashing warning signs of weakening confidence. The next test? Jobs data and macro prints later this week. | | | | | Trump Family's WLFI Stake Hits $5B The Trump family's crypto bet just ballooned.

That story doesn't hold anymore. Over $7 billion in BTC is now earning native onchain yield while holders keep custody — a shift gold's $23 trillion vault can't match.
