Lido launches $10M LDO buyback – But NEST may remain idle until…
Staking protocol Lido has finally activated its long-awaited automatic $LDO token buyback program. The programme, also known as NEST (Network Economic Support Token), was first floated last year.

According to the project, the program is now live on the mainnet with a daily limit set at $50K and annual purchases capped at $10M.

It seeks to ensure automatic, dynamic $LDO buybacks, taking into account prevailing market conditions. Under the NEST design, only 50% of the daily staking revenue exceeding $109K will be directed to the buyback program.

That translates to a $40 million annual revenue baseline. Anything below that ($109K daily) means there will be no buyback.
That said, the bought $LDO tokens won’t be burned but will be owned by the DAO treasury. The program was previously criticized for being too low compared to other protocols.

For comparison, Hyperliquid is doing about $100M in annual buyback. Aster and Uniswap run a $40M annual program while PUMP eyes $35M. Compared to $LDO’s $10M annual plan, it was 3-10x smaller than other ongoing programs.

Lido’s bumpy buyback start

That said, the current staking rewards were still below the daily average of $109K to trigger the buyback program. According to DeFiLlama, the protocol has been making around $75K in daily revenue in August.
The last time Lido crossed above $109K in daily revenue was back in April 2026 during broader Q2 recovery across the crypto market.

In other words, NEST will truly kick in if broader market sentiment improves. Even so, most experts hailed the dynamic buyback move. Gabriel Shapiro, a pro-crypto attorney, said,
Worth noting that not everyone supports crypto buybacks in crypto, especially during market downturns.

Critics view it as a waste of funds and propose directing the same to crucial ecosy

JUP | Jupiter Remains a Major DeFi Liquidity Hub on Solana
$JUP is trading around $0.18–$0.19 today, with recent market data showing continued weakness over the past week. Despite the price pressure, Jupiter remains one of Solana's key DeFi protocols, providing liquidity aggregation, swaps, perpetuals and other trading products. CoinGecko currently reports more than $200K in daily protocol fees, showing that the underlying platform remains active. �

Jupiter's broader ecosystem is also expanding into stablecoins and additional financial products. Its JupUSD initiative and continued development of its DeFi superapp keep $JUP connected to the wider Solana liquidity narrative. �

Why Prediction Market Signals Rarely Override Crypto Investors’ Existing Bets.Prediction markets now give crypto investors live odds for price targets, regulation, and economic events. Yet research has not established how often those signals change portfolios. The stronger evidence shows how market structure and investor confidence shape the way traders interpret them.

Event-contract trading has expanded sharply. Combined monthly volume on Kalshi and Polymarket rose from under $5 billion in September 2025 to about $24 billion in April 2026

Regulatory attention has increased alongside that growth. On Aug. 12, the New York City Council disclosed an investigation into alleged marketing practices across major platforms. Wider reach, however, does not prove that event-contract odds change crypto portfolios.

Nasdaq Files to Expand Crypto ETF Options for BTC, ETH, SOL, and XRP

Nasdaq proposes standardized rules for options tied to qualifying Crypto ETF options.

The framework allows up to 15% of trust holdings outside derivatives markets.

Each digital commodity must meet a $700 million market value threshold.

Nasdaq has filed a proposed rule change with the Securities and Exchange Commission to expand how options tied to Crypto ETF products could reach the market. The proposal would establish standardized criteria for listing options on commodity-based trusts holding digital commodities.

It could cover assets such as Bitcoin, Ether, Solana, and XRP if they meet the stated requirements. The filing also introduces a 15% allowance for digital commodities that do not satisfy the derivatives-market requirement.

The proposal comes as Nasdaq continues changing its rules for digital-asset derivatives. Its latest filing would replace the term “crypto asset” with “digital commodity” and establish specific conditions for qualifying trusts. The changes would also reduce the need for a separate SEC approval process for every qualifying product.

Nasdaq Sets Rules for Crypto ETF Options
Nasdaq ISE submitted the proposal under File Number SR-ISE-2026-42. The filing requires at least 85% of a trust’s net asset value to consist of holdings that underlie derivatives contracts. Those contracts must trade on markets with comprehensive surveillance-sharing agreements.

The requirement can be satisfied through an agreement with the exchange or through the Intermarket Surveillance Group. Nasdaq would also allow up to 15% of a trust’s NAV to contain digital commodities that do not meet the derivatives-market requirement.
