Key points

  • The Fed and Bank of Canada decide on 28 Oct, the ECB on 29 Oct and the BoJ on 30 Oct; the Fed's rate is 3.75%-4.00%.
  • Coinbase, Strategy, Galaxy Digital and Robinhood report earnings, with Coinbase expected at -$0.10 a share on 29 Oct.

Central bank rate decisions and a busy earnings week dominate crypto markets in the week starting 26 Oct, CoinDesk reports. The Federal Reserve and Bank of Canada set rates on 28 Oct, the European Central Bank follows on 29 Oct and the Bank of Japan on 30 Oct. The Fed's rate stands at 3.75%-4.00%, the ECB deposit rate at 2.50% and the BoJ at 1.25%.

According to CoinDesk, the decisions themselves matter less than the commentary. MEXC CEO Vugar Usi Zade told the outlet that traders are more focused on what Fed Chair Kevin Warsh says about the December meeting than on the rate figure, since holding rates steady is already priced in.

On the corporate side, Galaxy Digital, Robinhood, Coinbase and Strategy report alongside PayPal and Mastercard. Coinbase is expected to post a loss of $0.10 a share after the market closes on 29 Oct, while Strategy is forecast at $8.34.

Crypto-specific dates include the closure of Blast's normal withdrawal interface on 26 Oct, with assets still withdrawable through its Ethereum bridge contracts. Balancer's BIP-928 wind-down starts on 30 Oct, moving pausable pools to withdrawals-only.

What to watch: The Fed's rate decision and press conference are due on 28 Oct, followed by the ECB on 29 Oct and the Bank of Japan on 30 Oct.
