🔥🔥🔥 OIL JUMPS MORE THAN 4%: BRENT ~$102, WTI ~$93

🛢 Oil prices surged on Oct. 1 as Middle East risks returned to the spotlight.
🇺🇸 The U.S. is considering deploying additional troops to the Middle East
🇨🇳 China has halted exports of refined oil products, tightening supply

🔴 Middle Eastern oil flows had just begun recovering, but renewed military headlines pushed prices higher again. As long as Hormuz and the U.S. military presence remain key variables, oil may struggle to sustain a one-way trend.

🔥🔥🔥 $NEAR DROPS 6% AFTER NEAR INTENTS IS HACKED FOR MORE THAN $3.8 MILLION

🔴 NEAR Intents suspended services after a vulnerability in its Omni deposit/withdrawal system caused losses of around $3.8 million. $NEAR fell about 6%.
🖤 The issue involved the interaction between Omni’s deposit/withdrawal infrastructure and the NEAR Intents smart contract
🖤 Most of the funds were drained on BNB Chain, including around 3.87 million USDT
🖤 ZachXBT: the funds were moved through KuCoin and then bridged into BTC
🖤 The team says the contract-side issue has been patched and has committed to fully reimburse affected users
🖤 Deposits and withdrawals across 11 networks — including BSC, Polygon, TON, Optimism, and Avalanche — remain temporarily suspended for roughly another 12 hours

The incident affected Intents, not the NEAR blockchain itself. The token was still sold off before reimbursements reached users.

🔥 NEAR INTENTS ISSUES 48-HOUR ULTIMATUM, DEMANDS HACKER RETURN FUNDS

🏙 Alex Shevchenko, GM of NEAR Intents, said the team has identified the person behind the roughly $3.8 million theft and is demanding the funds be returned within 48 hours under a “responsible disclosure” framework.
🟣 Refund addresses on BTC, BNB, and SOL have been publicly shared
🟣 The window closes after 48 hours, after which the case moves into tracing and legal enforcement
🟣 ZachXBT previously tracked the funds through KuCoin and then into BTC
🟣 The project still says affected users will be fully reimbursed
🟣 There are rumors of Lazarus Group involvement, but nothing has been officially confirmed

The ultimatum adds pressure, but it does not mean the money has been recovered. If the refund wallets are still empty after 48 hours, the chances of recovering the funds on-chain remain low. 😄😄😄

🔥🔥🔥 12:30 UTC TODAY: U.S. SEPTEMBER NONFARM PAYROLLS RELEASE

🇺🇸 U.S. jobs data will play a major role in shaping expectations for the Fed’s October meeting.
🟣 Jobs added: forecast 89,000–90,000 (previous: 162,000)
🟣 Unemployment rate: forecast 4.1% (previous: 4.1%)

📈 Weaker-than-expected jobs data would strengthen the case for the Fed to hold rates this month. A surprisingly strong print could push rate-hike odds back up, with Treasury yields and the U.S. dollar likely to react first.

ILLINOIS DELAYS CRYPTO TAX BY 6 MONTHS AFTER WAVE OF CRITICISM

🔈 Illinois has agreed to delay its 0.2% digital asset tax by six months, from Jan. 1 to July 1, 2027, subject to court approval. The lawsuit challenging the tax’s legality will continue.
🖤 Proposed rate: 0.2% on digital asset business activity
🖤 Applies to purchases, sales, transfers, and certain custody services
🖤 Revenue threshold: more than $100,000 in related activity
🖤 Both sides asked the court for a stay while the constitutional challenge proceeds
🖤 The tax has not been canceled — it is only delayed pending a court ruling
⚡️ To put it simply: a $10,000 buy-and-sell round trip could potentially cost an extra $40 in tax, excluding exchange fees and trading profits/losses.

Do you guys see this as regulation — or a disguised penalty? 😄😄😄

🔥🔥🔥 WEAK NFP NEARLY TAKES AN OCTOBER FED HIKE OFF THE TABLE

🤩 The U.S. September jobs report, released last night, came in much weaker than expected, pushing the probability of a Fed rate hike at the October meeting to very low levels.

📈 Market reaction:
🟡 The probability of an October Fed rate hike dropped sharply to around 16–17%, from roughly 25–28% before the report
🟡 Markets are now leaning toward the Fed holding rates unchanged at the Oct. 27–28 meeting
🟡 Treasury yields and the U.S. dollar came under downward pressure as expectations for further tightening eased

The labor market is cooling, but it has not broken down. The Fed could still keep the door open to a December rate hike if inflation fails to cool.

@BackcomGlobal

🚨 NFP IS DONE — THEN OIL REVERSES THE ENTIRE MARKET

🔴 Just about an hour later, oil rebounded nearly 4%, pushing U.S. Treasury yields back up and triggering a broad market reversal.

📉 The reversal:
🛢 Oil bounced sharply after a deep drop, reviving inflation concerns.
💸 U.S. Treasury yields climbed again after briefly cooling.
📈 U.S. stocks gave back nearly all of their early-session gains.
🟢 Gold and Bitcoin also cooled as yields and the U.S. dollar became less weak.

Markets quickly shifted from “the Fed will hold rates” to concerns that rising oil prices could reignite inflation. One hour was enough to erase most of the initial NFP reaction.

NEAR INTENTS HACKER RETURNS THE FULL $3.8M BEFORE THE 48-HOUR DEADLINE

🟢 NEAR Intents confirmed that the full amount of roughly $3.8 million taken in the exploit has been returned.
🖤 The hacker returned the funds before the 48-hour ultimatum expired
🖤 The team said it will stop the investigation into the incident
🖤 The vulnerability had already been patched
🖤 NEAR Intents had previously committed to fully compensating affected users

From “return the money within 48 hours” to actually getting it back. One of the rare hacks that ended with the full amount returned. 😄😄😄

@BackcomGlobal

⚡️ G7 TO RELEASE 100 MILLION BARRELS OF OIL: FULFILLING AN OLD COMMITMENT, NOT A NEW PLAN

📌 The G7 has agreed to release 100 million barrels of oil over the next four months to complete a commitment first made back in March — this is not a new reserve-release package.
🟡 This is the remaining portion of an existing agreement, not a new measure to push oil prices lower
🟡 The additional supply will be spread over four months, not released into the market all at once
🟡 Oil is still reacting strongly because of concerns over actual supply and geopolitical tensions, not just reserve-release headlines

So the nearly 4% rebound in oil after NFP was not because the G7 “opened a new reserve program,” but because the old commitment was not enough to ease inflation concerns.

🔥🔥🔥 FED’S GOOLSBEE THROWS COLD WATER ON THE POST-NFP RALLY: INFLATION STILL MATTERS MORE

🏙 Chicago Fed President Austan Goolsbee said that despite the weak September jobs report, the U.S. labor market remains broadly stable and inflation is still the issue the Fed needs to focus on more closely.
🖤 The Fed will not overreact to one month of data
🖤 Goolsbee wants to see more evidence that inflation is moving back toward the 2% target
🖤 Both a rate hike and a hold remain on the table
🖤 He did not rule out any decision at the Fed’s next meeting

➡️ Weak NFP has narrowed the door for an October rate hike, but it has not completely closed it. If inflation stays hot, the Fed still has reasons to maintain a hawkish tone.

@BackcomGlobal

🇺🇸 TRUMP: INFLATION COULD HELP THE U.S. REDUCE ITS $40 TRILLION DEBT BURDEN

🇺🇸 President Trump said that a certain level of inflation could help the U.S. deal with its more than $40 trillion debt “very quickly.”

🟣 In theory, inflation reduces the real value of existing debt
🟣 But if inflation pushes Treasury yields higher, the U.S. has to refinance at higher interest rates
🟣 Rising interest costs could wipe out the benefit of having the debt diluted by inflation
🟣 Economic adviser Kevin Hassett said the U.S. does not want to use inflation to reduce debt, but instead is focused on economic growth and controlling the deficit

➡️ Inflation may make old debt look lighter on paper, but if bond yields rise with it, the bill for new borrowing gets bigger.

🔴 U.S. ECONOMIC CALENDAR (UTC)
WEEK 02 – OCTOBER 2026

🗓 This week’s U.S. economic calendar is lighter than last week, but several important releases could still influence Fed rate expectations, especially ISM Services PMI, the FOMC Minutes, and consumer inflation expectations.

👉 Key times to watch:
🟣 14:00, Monday Oct. 5: ISM Services PMI
🔥 18:00, Wednesday Oct. 7: September FOMC Meeting Minutes
🟣 12:30, Thursday Oct. 8: Initial Jobless Claims
🟣 14:00, Friday Oct. 9: Preliminary Michigan Consumer Sentiment + Inflation Expectations

🖤 The biggest focus this week is the FOMC Minutes. Markets will look for clues about the level of agreement within the Fed following the September rate hike and the possibility of another rate increase at the late-October meeting. These releases could have a major impact on the U.S. dollar, gold, U.S. stocks, Bitcoin, and Treasury yields.

🔥 GOLD HOLDS ABOVE $4,150 — MARKETS SHARPLY SCALE BACK EXPECTATIONS OF A FED RATE HIKE

💰 Gold started the week with a rebound to around $4,160/oz, after much weaker-than-expected U.S. jobs data prompted markets to reduce bets on another Fed rate hike in October.

📌 SEPTEMBER NFP DISAPPOINTS

🖤 The U.S. added just 29,000 jobs
🖤 Far below forecasts of around 90,000
🖤 August’s figure was revised down to 133,000 jobs
🖤 The unemployment rate rose to 4.2%
🖤 Annual wage growth slowed to around 3.0%

📈 Markets now lean more strongly toward the Fed holding rates steady at its October meeting, rather than delivering another hike.
