Crypto’s November 9–15, 2026 Calendar: Elysium Launch, Blur Frontend Retirement and Token Unlocks

Historical calendar based on PANews reporting published November 8, 2026, at 20:07:24 UTC+8. The items below reflect plans, announcements and estimates reported at that time—not confirmation that the events subsequently occurred. All calendar times are UTC+8 unless otherwise stated.

The November 9–15 schedule brought several distinct crypto narratives together: a planned Hyperliquid ecosystem expansion, an NFT marketplace frontend retirement, tokenization proposals and a series of service shutdowns. These developments concern different layers of the market: launching infrastructure is not the same as demonstrating adoption, and retiring a website does not necessarily end its underlying protocol.

Ecosystem expansion and NFT infrastructure

November 9: Elysium’s planned mainnet launch

Elysium announced that its mainnet would launch on November 9, describing itself as the first Layer 2 network in the Hyperliquid ecosystem. The general-purpose network uses HyperEVM as its settlement layer, operates alongside the trading-focused HyperCore and uses HYPE as its native gas token.

According to the source, Elysium was running Conduit’s G2 sequencer, with underlying infrastructure meeting SOC II Type 2 security standards. The planned launch would move it from testing into a production network available for applications and transactions. The announcement did not provide adoption figures.

Also scheduled for November 9, Polymarket Protocol V2 had been postponed from November 2 to avoid the week of the U.S. midterm elections. Polymarket Developers said deployment times and the order of market migrations would be published separately; users did not need to act in the meantime.

November 12: Blur retires its frontend, not its marketplace protocol

Blur said it would deprecate the blur.io frontend on November 12, 2026, while its marketplace protocol would continue operating onchain. BLUR would retain control over the protocol’s fee switch.

The distinction matters: this was a frontend retirement, not an announced shutdown of the underlying marketplace protocol.

The change also affected Blend, Blur’s NFT lending protocol, which would stop matching new loans that day. Blur said borrowers needed to repay beforehand or allow their loans to default. It planned to provide frontend tools afterward to help users withdraw assets from Blend, and warned about impersonation accounts and false announcements.

November 12: Soneium’s Moriusa NFT sale

Sony’s Ethereum Layer 2 network Soneium announced a sale of 50 Moriusa Soneium Edition NFTs, priced at 0.25 ETH each, with a limit of one per wallet. Soneium described the Japanese IP Moriusa as its network’s first tokenized IP.

The NFTs would come from an existing collection rather than new minting. Two rare items were included, with allocation randomized at purchase. The whitelist window was scheduled for 21:00–23:00 on November 12, followed by a public sale through Soneium Portal.

Soneium had previously announced plans for a SONEIUM ecosystem token and a shift toward an onchain entertainment economy. The limited sale was a specific offering, not evidence of broader adoption.

Regulation: tokenization proposals and stablecoin oversight

November 9: Australia’s crypto-settled derivatives consultation closes

According to Cointelegraph, the Australian Securities and Investments Commission was consulting on extending its contract-for-difference product intervention order to 2037 and bringing contracts settled in digital assets within its scope.

Covered products would face retail protections including leverage limits, margin closeout requirements and negative-balance protection. ASIC said some crypto futures and options with fixed expiry dates would remain outside the CFD rules. Comments were due November 9, and the amended order still required ministerial approval.

November 11: South Korea’s securities-tokenization consultation closes

South Korea’s Financial Services Commission set November 11 as the comment deadline for supporting amendments to the Electronic Securities Act and Capital Markets Act, ahead of the laws’ planned February 4, 2027 effective date.

The proposals would extend tokenization to traditional securities, including stocks, bonds and funds, through a phased rollout. The initial scope would include institution-only private money-market funds, privately placed bonds, trust-based unlisted shares and publicly offered fractional-investment securities. Retail public bond and fund offerings would follow only after an assessment of initial market operations and demand.

Regulators also proposed an approval framework for retail bond over-the-counter exchanges and an annual net-purchase limit of 100 million won per retail investor at a single exchange. Initial settlement would use the Korea Securities Depository’s existing cash system; stablecoin-based onchain securities settlement remained dependent on further legislation.

November 12: EBA takes on specified USDC supervisory duties

The European Banking Authority classified USDC issued by Circle Internet Financial Europe SAS as the first significant electronic money token under MiCA. The source reported that 45 EMTs had been notified under the framework across the EU.

From November 12, 2026, responsibility for USDC’s own-funds requirements, reserve assets, liquidity requirements, and recovery and redemption plans would transfer from France’s ACPR to the EBA. ACPR would retain oversight of governance, qualifying holdings, outsourcing and conflicts of interest.

The EBA also signed a memorandum of understanding with the New York State Department of Financial Services to strengthen cross-border stablecoin supervision.

Exchange access, index eligibility and prediction markets

  • Mercado Bitcoin — November 9: The Brazilian exchange said it would begin a phased restoration, initially allowing website access to view balances, statements, assets and investments. Transfers, withdrawals and trading would return after final security checks for each module. It said customers would not lose assets and that it would use its own funds to compensate for assets involved in the incident. Working with Tether, Circle, Paxos, BRL1, Chainalysis and crypto-community experts, it reported that more than $15 million in related assets had been frozen, up from a previously reported $12.9 million.
  • Coinbase — November 10, around 03:00: Following a review, Coinbase planned to suspend Balancer (BAL) and Tensor (TNSR) trading across Coinbase.com, Coinbase Exchange and Coinbase Prime. The equivalent U.S. Eastern time was November 9 at approximately 14:00. Order books had already moved to limit-only mode; withdrawals remained available.
  • MSCI — November 11: MSCI planned to publish the final list of companies affected by new eligibility rules that could remove Strategy and Metaplanet from its indexes. The methodology would assess operating assets and five financial ratios, replacing interim restrictions on companies holding digital assets exceeding 50% of total assets. It would apply in the November 2026 review and take effect after the close on November 30. Existing constituents failing the screen in both of their latest two annual reporting periods would be removed; MSCI could also consider the latest interim reports where available. Removal was a risk, not a confirmed outcome for those companies.
  • Kalshi — November 13 mapping deadline: On November 4, U.S. District Judge Jacqueline Scott Corley granted a preliminary injunction barring Kalshi Inc. and KalshiEX from offering sports-event contracts on the plaintiff California tribes’ Indian lands—not throughout California. The order covered baseball, tennis, football, basketball, golf, esports, motor racing, boxing and UFC contracts. Kalshi said it had voluntarily blocked trading in those areas; the tribes questioned the effectiveness. Tribes were required to provide boundary maps by November 13, and Kalshi had to report compliance steps within 21 days.

Shutdowns and migration deadlines

Binance Pool: November 10

Binance said its mining pool and related services would end at 15:00 on November 10, 2026. The shutdown covered Binance Pool, Pool Savings, cloud mining, transaction acceleration, Telegram hashrate alerts, email notifications and pool APIs.

Mining connections, Stratum addresses and mining endpoints would be disabled, with subsequent hashrate and shares no longer accepted or credited. Binance advised users to reconfigure miners to other pools and review Pool Savings positions, subscriptions and redemptions. Historical data would remain accessible until November 24 at 15:00, after which the pool page would close permanently.

Kaia: migration guide due November 13

Kaia said existing publicly delegated KAIA would not migrate automatically to new staking contracts as the network moved toward permissionless operation.

The process required an unstaking request, a seven-day wait, withdrawal and a fresh deposit into the new contract. Submitting the request alone would not complete migration.

A detailed guide was scheduled for November 13. Kaia Portal’s migration menu would open on November 17, with withdrawals and redeposits available from November 26. The menu would direct users to the new contract corresponding to their existing GC delegate. The transition also included new staking contracts and a network hard fork. CR Mission 1 participants completing migration on the stated schedule would retain recognition of their KAIA staking contribution.

Neutrl: redemption window expected through November 14

Neutrl said NUSD and sNUSD holders could request redemption through its redemption portal at fixed rates based on previously disclosed liquidity reserves. Successful redemptions would deliver USDC, and the redeemed NUSD or sNUSD would be burned.

The process required connecting the holding wallet and signing an onchain ownership-verification message, with details shown before submission. The window was expected to remain open until November 14, 2026. Neutrl said the contracts had undergone a third-party security audit and urged users to use only its official redemption address and review the terms.

Echo Protocol and Suiet: November 14 wind-downs

Bitcoin infrastructure project Echo Protocol said it would cease operations after November 14 following nearly two years of activity. Its lending business had stopped accepting new deposits and loans and stopped accruing interest; its Strategy product had stopped new deposits, and its LSD product had stopped new staking. Repayments, withdrawals and necessary liquidations remained available.

The withdrawal, repayment and unstaking window ran from October 19 at 08:00 to November 20 at 07:59. Overdue loans would have collateral liquidated to repay lenders. Remaining positions would subsequently enter liquidation or settlement, with timing undetermined. Aptos-to-B² Network bridge redemptions would remain available after closure. The team warned against requests for transfers or private signing involving specified wallet addresses.

Sui wallet Suiet separately announced that development and maintenance would end after November 14, 2026. API services would be suspended and its Chrome extension delisted. It instructed users to back up seed phrases or private keys and migrate to another Sui-compatible wallet.

Macro and AI-infrastructure calendar

The source scheduled the U.S. October CPI release for November 10 at 21:30. The Cleveland Fed’s model estimated monthly increases of 0.24% for headline CPI and 0.21% for core CPI. These were model estimates, not released inflation figures. October PPI was scheduled for November 13 at 21:30.

For AI-infrastructure watchers, CoreWeave was scheduled to report third-quarter 2026 results on the morning of November 11, and Nebius on the evening of November 12. Cisco was scheduled to report fiscal first-quarter 2027 results in the early hours of November 13. Those corporate reporting dates were separate from evidence of adoption for any crypto AI token.
