The week’s main crypto policy event starts today with the opening of the SEC/CFTC crypto derivatives comment window, while broader markets are also preparing for a fresh run of U.S. macroeconomic data. Thursday’s calendar includes first-quarter GDP estimated at 1.6%, Core PCE estimated at 3.3% year over year and 0.24% month over month, and jobless claims estimated at 224,000.
