Americans may have less money to invest in cryptocurrencies in 2026 as income growth slows and job gains weaken. Recent U.S. labor market data suggest household finances could come under pressure heading into next year.

Strategy (formerly MicroStrategy) effectively decoupled its shareholder payouts from Bitcoin’s volatility since December start, establishing a $1.44 billion USD reserve to service its growing debt and preferred stock obligations.

An infinite-mint vulnerability in Yearn Finance’s yETH contract triggered a multi-million dollar liquidity drain Sunday, forcing the protocol to isolate the affected legacy pool. An attacker exploited the flaw to mint 235 trillion synthetic tokens, immediately swapping the worthless supply for real assets before routing funds to mixer Tornado Cash.

Crypto markets are readying for a decisive macro pivot this Sunday, December 1, as the Federal Reserve is scheduled to its Quantitative Tightening (QT) program.

Lookonchain tracked a fresh sequence of Tornado Cash withdrawals involving three newly active wallets that together pulled out 4,920 ETH, valued at roughly $16.25 million. The ETH was moved at about $3,302 per coin. The size and timing attracted attention because the addresses were not long-lived and were funded entirely via the privacy mixer.

Dan Gambardello, an analyst, suggests that the potential end of the Federal Reserve’s quantitative tightening (QT) cycle, record liquidity levels, and rising institutional adoption could form the perfect mix for a new rally.
