Rising expectations of Federal Reserve interest rate hikes have led to broad declines in US stock market sectors including optical modules, storage, and crypto-related concept stocks.
According to market data from BIT (Bit.com), after the release of PPI data, expectations of a Federal Reserve interest rate hike rose, triggering a collective intraday decline in the three major U.S. stock indexes: the Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 0.44% on the day, the Nasdaq fell 1.26%, and the S&P 500 fell 0.64%. The optical module, storage, and crypto-related concept stock sectors all saw broad losses, with individual stock performances as follows: Applied Optoelectronics (AAOI) down 3.66%, Lumentum (LITE) down 3.26%, Coherent (COHR) down 3.19%, Marvell Technology (MRVL) down 2.51%, Nokia (NOK) down 2.83%, Micron Technology (MU) down 4.32%, SanDisk (SNDK) down 4.07%, Western Digital (WDC) down 5.15%, Seagate Technology (STX) down 3.47%, Circle (CRCL) down 3.15%, Bullish (BLSH) down 1.73%, Gemini Space Station (GEMI) down 1.62%, Bitmine Immersion Technologies (BMNR) down 1.34%, and SharpLink (SBET) down 1.17%.

Study: Estimated cost of quantum attacks on BTC and ETH drops by over 50%
According to a new paper published by researchers from Theta Labs, the Ethereum Foundation, StarkWare, and other institutions, the resources required for key computational steps in potential quantum attacks on Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH) are over 50% lower than the estimates previously released by Google’s Quantum AI team. The study’s proposed quantum circuit design needs only around 1,151 logical qubits, and uses approximately 1.3 million Toffoli gate operations to complete the relevant calculations, with a composite score of roughly 1.5 billion—below Google’s previously announced level of around 3 billion. The research primarily optimized the point addition calculation step in Shor’s algorithm, which theoretically allows a sufficiently powerful quantum computer to derive private keys from public keys. Jieyi Long, one of the paper’s lead authors and CTO of Theta Labs, noted that quantum attacks are not currently imminent, but quantum-resistant migration will take many years and cannot be remedied after an attack occurs.

After Bonk Guy hyped USELESS, the token fell 14% within one hour.
According to GMGN data, USELESS has dropped 14% in the past hour, with its current market cap standing at $227 million. An hour ago, Bonk Guy once again hyped USELESS on social media, claiming: "USELESS is the memecoin of this bull run, basically destined to reach a multi-billion dollar market cap. During this recent dip, many new holders have also flowed into USELESS. Ahead of Q4, every pullback in this price range is a buying opportunity."

After the release of PPI data, the probability of the Federal Reserve raising interest rates in September rose to 70%.
After the release of PPI data, markets have ramped up bets on the Federal Reserve raising interest rates at next week’s meeting. Earlier this week, the first key inflation report showed that U.S. producer prices rose 5.4% in the 12 months ending in August. Prior to this report, markets had priced in a roughly 65% probability of the Fed hiking rates by 25 basis points at its September 15-16 meeting. According to CME Group’s federal funds futures contract prices, that probability has now climbed to around 70%. (Jin10)
