  • —U.S. September jobs report showed just 29,000 jobs added vs. ~90,000 expected, unemployment at 4.2%
  • —FOMC minutes from the September 15-16 meeting, when rates were raised to 3.75%-4.00%, land October 7
  • —Evernorth is set to trade on Nasdaq under ticker XRPN and expects to hold roughly 473 million XRP
  • —Glamsterdam activates on the Sepolia testnet on October 6; mainnet remains unscheduled, targeting Q4 2026
Why it matters: Soft jobs data lowers the odds of another rate hike, while the FOMC minutes and token unlocks will set the market's direction this week.
