[Prices as of 11 AM ET. Click here for our Fear & Greed Index]( EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KEEP YOUR EYES ON THIS WEEK ð Everyone knows thereâs never a dull moment in crypto. And we have another action-packed week coming up. Itâs gonna be filled with product launches, token unlocks, and retail data. (aka The Holy Trinity of Price Volatility) - Shibarium (Shiba Inuâs new blockchain) is set to launch on August 15-16. There are also rumors that centralized exchanges could be listing tokens from the Shiba Inu ecosystem this week. - The SEI token is set to go live on August 15. SEI is a new Layer 1 with a lot of hype and major exchanges like Binance and Kraken will be listing the token starting tomorrow. - THORChain is launching its new lending protocol. Borrowers can deposit collateral and acquire debt at a market-determined collateralization ratio. New features include zero expiries, zero interest, etc. (P.S. - THORChainâs native token, $RUNE, is up 50% over the last week) - Token unlocks: ~$200M worth of tokens will be unlocked this week - including SAND (unlocking 16% of supply), APE (unlocking 4% of supply), INJ, and more. - Macro data: Retail sales data and initial jobless claims are being released later this week. - Earnings reports: Big retailers like Walmart, Home Depot, etc. have their earnings calls. The key thing weâll be keeping a close eye on - retail data. Both sales data and retail earnings have been key in determining trends in consumer spending. Buckle up Roaders, with all the token unlocks, macro data, and products launching this week weâre forecasting crypto gets hit with the Fog of Uncertaintyâ¢. Tread lightly, thereâs a 100% chance of volatility. [FUND YOUR WALLET WITH EASE]( Over the past year, centralized exchanges were in the news for all of the wrong reasons: Fraud, commingling customer funds, unregistered securities, and bad hairdos.

Well when it comes to purchasing crypto easily, the Milk Man relies on [MetaMask Portfolio](. It allows you to onramp funds straight to your wallet with only a few clicks.

[Buy with MetaMask Portfolio]( SBF GOES TO JAIL ð¨ââï¸ Ladies and gents, Sam Bankman-Fried has been arrested. On Friday, a judge ruled SBF violated his bail by: - Tampering with witnesses (at least twice). - Leaking Caroline Ellisonâs private diary to the New York Times. SBF allegedly sent over 100 emails and had over 1,000 phone calls with members of the press. - Using a VPN to hide Internet activity. - Using Signal to hide communications. SBF frequently used the encrypted messaging app and made the messages âauto-deleteâ after a certain time. So whatâs next? SBFâs bail was revoked and his wrists were handcuffed - the Crypto Fro is headed to jail. Heâll be held at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn until his trial begins in October. Source: Reuters / Jane Rosenberg P.S. - This needs to be hung up in the Louvre Museum. P.P.S. - If I ever get a courtroom sketch, I hope they make me look as ripped as SBF. Just look at that shoulder-to-waist ratio. BITE-SIZED COOKIES ðª [Kraken Pro has become the one-stop shop for Pro Traders](.
