U.S. inflation, Coinbase’s Deribit switch: Crypto Week Ahead
Crypto markets are bracing for U.S. inflation data and central bank interest rate decisions this week, which are expected to influence volatility. Additionally, Coinbase is transitioning its perpetual-futures trading venue to Deribit, while several token unlocks and industry conferences are scheduled.
Why it matters
Macroeconomic indicators and platform infrastructure changes are key drivers for institutional and retail crypto market sentiment.
U.S. inflation data could set the tone for crypto markets in this holiday-shortened week. Producer prices arrive Thursday and consumer prices on Friday, providing the final major inflation readings before the Federal Reserve’s September meeting.
The European Central Bank also decides on rates this week, followed by the Bank of Russia. Meanwhile, Coinbase is set to shift the venue powering perpetual-futures trading in its app and website from Coinbase International Exchange to Deribit, which it bought in August 2025.
GameStop and bitcoin miner Canaan report earnings this week, while Blockstream plans to publish the source code behind its Core Lightning 26.06.7 security fixes.
