Markets are heading into a packed week from July 27 to Aug. 2, with monetary policy decisions, major U.S. earnings, crypto distributions, token unlocks and a growing list of project shutdowns all landing within a few days of each other. The U.S. Federal Reserve is scheduled to release its FOMC rate decision at 02:00 on July 30, followed by a press conference by Fed Chair Waller at 02:30, while the Bank of England will announce its own decision, minutes and monetary policy report later the same day.
On the crypto side, FTX said it will begin its fifth round of distributions on July 31, sending roughly $900 million to eligible claim holders under the reorganization plan, while eligible preferred shareholders are set to receive a second payment. Coinbase plans to suspend Across Protocol (ACX) trading on July 28. Polygon’s Ithaca hard fork is expected to go live on mainnet on July 29, and Binance said it will suspend POL deposits and withdrawals ahead of the upgrade.
At the same time, several crypto platforms and products are winding down or closing. The list includes Tropykus, Dango, Odos, Pingu Exchange, YGG Play, Zero Network, Oxium, Exchange Art, Moonbeam-related bridge access, and SBI Crypto’s bitcoin mining pool. Users across these services have been asked to repay loans, close positions, bridge assets out, export keys, or withdraw funds before the stated deadlines.
