LayerZero price reclaims $1 – But ZRO’s 14% rally faces THIS testLayerZero’s [$ZRO] price surged by 14.42%, as trading volumes picked up, further bolstering demand as $ZRO closed in on the $1.20 key resistance level. At the time of writing, $ZRO was trading around $1.16, and volume rose 15.46% to about $115.9 million.

The simultaneous increases in price and volume strengthened the recovery’s participation profile during the latest price rally. Buyers, therefore, supported the move with expanding activity rather than relying solely on the thin-market price appreciation.

More importantly, the volume surge coincided with the highest movement of $ZRO off its recent lower trading range. This participation helped to expand market participation as price neared the technically significant zones.

Rising leverage adds fuel to $ZRO
Derivatives traders increased their exposure as $ZRO rallied, with Open Interest (OI) climbing 15.75% to $126.33 million at press time.

The rise mirrored a token’s price rally and also brought leveraged involvement behind the recovery. Fresh positioning, therefore, accompanied the rally rather than declining as traders reduced their exposure.

Historically, a rising OI during rising prices generally strengthens the bullish derivatives backdrop across the provided data. Moreover, with increasing leverage, the markets become more sensitive to price reversals.

A sharp rejection may cause leveraged traders to rethink their positions taken in the most recent expansion. Currently, however, increased participation is in line with the overall recovery process.

Therefore, continued OI expansion alongside stable prices would keep derivatives support firmly behind $ZRO’s recovery attempt.

Bitcoin vs. interest rate decision days in 2026: Price trends
As the chart on liquidations earlier showed, the liquidations following the January decision, which was followed by Kevin Warsh’s nomination, spanned the heaviest crypto liquidations seen so far in 2026.

The decision days so far in 2026 are shown above. The decision has been to maintain the interest rates between 3.50% and 3.75% for five consecutive times this year. The next meeting will be on the 15th-16th of September.

The data from the FedWatch Tool, at the time of writing, showed a 65.2% probability of another rate decision that opts to keep the rate at 3.50%-3.75%. There is a 34.8% chance of a rate hike to 3.75%-4.00%.

The crypto liquidations during each rate decision announcement have been around the $300 million-$500 million threshold, barring the January announcement, a day which saw nearly $1 billion wiped out in crypto derivatives markets.

Most of the liquidations were long, and the price action shows why.

The Bitcoin price action on FOMC meeting days and the day after are highlighted in cyan on the 1-day price chart above. Of the five decision days so far, three (January, March, and June) have been clear bearish pivots.

The others were indecisive, such as July, or saw a bullish uptick, like the April decision.

The spot ETF flows in the 48 hours around the interest rate decision’s announcement have also been illuminating. January 28th-29th saw -$837.4 million (negative for outflows); March 18th-19th measured -$253.7 million; April 29th-30th was -$114.1 million; and June 17th-18th added up to -$172.9 million.

Only July 29th-30th showed net inflows totaling $265.2 million.

After a sluggish start to August, the cryptocurrency market surged during the third week of the month, propelled by a U.S. Treasury bond buyback announcement and a White House meeting reaffirming the Trump administration’s support for the sector. Led by bitcoin, the broader crypto market cap expanded by $500 billion to peak near $2.74 trillion—its highest level since early May.
Bitcoin preserved most of its mid-week momentum despite a brief Sunday dip below $76,000, quickly rebounding above $77,000. Market data showed the digital asset finished the week up 22% after nearly breaching $80,000 on Aug. 21. The rally drove bitcoin’s market capitalization to $1.55 trillion and narrowed its year-to-date losses to roughly 12%—a sharp recovery from a nearly 30% drawdown at the start of the month.

While bitcoin anchored the broader market rally, Zcash posted the week’s top performance, surging nearly 70% to peak just above $873 after trading at $490 on Aug. 16. The privacy coin’s rally pushed its market capitalization past $14.5 billion—nearly double that of main rival Monero. $XRP also saw significant momentum, joining the broader altcoin surge.

Meanwhile, after dipping below $1 for the first time since mid-November 2024, $XRP joined the broader market recovery before surging near $1.70 early Aug. 22. Despite easing back to trade above $1.50, the token maintained a 51% weekly gain, making it the top-performing major altcoin behind ZEC.

$HYPE capitalized heavily on the broader market momentum, vaulting to a record high of $82.43 on Saturday. The rally was fueled in part by comments from President Donald Trump advocating for Hyperliquid’s expansion into the U.S. The milestone surge propelled $HYPE’s market capitalization toward $18 billion—a staggering trajectory for a token that opened the year trading at just $25.

Digital Asset and Paul Ryan’s American Idea Foundation Plan Canton Benefits PilotDigital Asset, the creator of the Canton Network, and former US House Speaker Paul Ryan’s American Idea Foundation plan to pilot a blockchain-based system for distributing state-administered benefits across three US states using Canton, as reported by Cointelegraph.

Inside the RISE program
The RISE program is expected to launch in the first quarter of 2027 and would combine multiple benefits into monthly or twice-monthly payments, with spending rules applied to categories including food, child care, and cash. The monthly or twice-monthly structure is designed to consolidate what are often separate, siloed benefit payments into a single stream governed by program-specific spending rules. According to Friday’s announcement, the system would automatically adjust benefit levels as household income changes, and would let participating agencies track payments, balances, spending, and compliance data through Canton.

Privacy by design
Digital Asset said Canton would coordinate the rules, permissions, and transactions used to distribute benefits while limiting access to sensitive information. That permissioned design is central to the pitch: agencies could share a single ledger without exposing the full personal data of recipients to every party on the network. While the announcement did not detail the underlying technical safeguards, it made limiting exposure to sensitive information an explicit part of the design.

Ryan’s case for reform
Ryan framed the pilot as a way to fix what he describes as a fragmented safety net, pointing to penalties that can occur as benefit recipients’ incomes rise. “By combining fragmented benefits, reducing penalties as families earn more, and rigorously measuring results, these pilots can help show what a modern safety net should look like,”
