Builders are getting slammed by the highest rates in years, but the big story breaking right now is the central bank just delivered a surprise 50-basis-point hike. The interest rate decision jumped from 11.25 to 11.75, smashing estimates and signaling they are not done fighting inflation.

In crypto markets, Sentora just opened the floodgates. Its Smart Yield platform is now live for everyone, letting retail investors access the same DeFi vault discovery and monitoring tools that institutions have been using behind closed doors.

Tightening policy, democratized DeFi, and prediction markets under the microscope. Markets are moving fast.
