Bank of Japan Governor Hints at Rate Hike, Market Still Bets on Yen Weakness
CoinVoice has recently learned that the market speculates that the Bank of Japan is likely to raise interest rates this month, but participants still bet that the yen will continue to weaken.
Traders from Bank of America, Nomura Holdings, and Royal Bank of Canada indicate that investor positions reflect this bet. Citigroup's 'pain index' for the yen remains deeply in negative territory, showing that negative sentiment towards the yen persists in the market.
Even though Bank of Japan Governor Kazuo Ueda hinted that interest rates may be raised soon, and the Bank of Japan is reportedly preparing to raise rates in December if the economy or financial markets are not significantly impacted, investors still maintain a bearish outlook on the yen. The reason is that even if the Bank of Japan takes action, Japan's yields are still expected to be significantly lower than those in the United States, which is more favorable for the dollar.

Author: Bitpush Editorial Team
In the past month, Bitcoin has fluctuated violently around $80,000 to $90,000 for most of the time, while altcoins have generally retraced by 15%-40%.

Farcaster announces strategic transformation, shifting focus from social scenarios to wallet-driven growth
CoinVoice has recently learned that Farcaster co-founder Dan Romero announced that the platform will undergo a major strategic adjustment, abandoning the path of seeking product-market fit with a 'social-first' approach over the past four years, and shifting to a wallet-centric growth model. The team stated that the rapidly growing in-app wallet functionality is currently the closest module to product-market fit, and will adopt the approach of 'using the tool (wallet) first, then solidifying the network (protocol)' to drive user conversion at the wallet end and become active users of the protocol.
Romero emphasized that the Farcaster protocol remains open and decentralized, but the official application will focus on expanding the capabilities of the wallet and social intersections in the future. In addition, Farcaster has previously acquired the token issuance platform Clanker to strengthen its related product layout. [Original link]
