Iran Demands Oil Tankers Pay Transit Fees in BTC
On the geopolitical front, Iran has dropped a "financial nuclear bomb." According to the Financial Times, during the two-week ceasefire between the U.S. and Iran, Iran will require oil tankers passing through the Strait of Hormuz to pay tolls in cryptocurrency. The fee is set at $1 per barrel of crude oil; empty ships can pass free of charge. After the ship operators receive an email from Iran, they will have "a few seconds" to make the payment in Bitcoin, ensuring the fee cannot be tracked or seized due to sanctions.

Breaking news: On April 8, local time, the Strait of Hormuz was fully shut again. Iran responded to Israel’s airstrikes on Lebanon with a hardline stance, and the just-reached ceasefire agreement has completely fallen apart. The situation in the Middle East has entered a “wartime state,” as reported today.
Iran said plainly that “the basis for negotiations has been completely destroyed,” and Netanyahu declared that he is “ready to return to the bat

#Eth$ETH Ethereum is currently trading in a consolidation phase as the market balances between bullish expectations and short-term uncertainty. Price action remains influenced by network activity, staking demand, and broader crypto sentiment. Strong support levels continue to hold, suggesting accumulation by long-term investors. However, declining volume indicates hesitation among traders in the near term. If Ethereum breaks above key resistance zones, it could trigger renewed bullish momentum and attract fresh capital inflows. On the downside, losing support may lead to increased selling pres

Yesterday, $USD1 's interest rate on Dolomite skyrocketed to 35%, shocking many people. After liquidity was replenished today, it fell back to around 16%.
This situation is not unfamiliar; essentially, it's a case of borrowing demand suddenly surging, pushing interest rates higher, and then funds coming in afterward causing rates to naturally decline.
In fact, the USD1 deposit activity has been ongoing for quite some time, continuously renewed, with various collaborations with CEXs and DEXs to expand the USD1 market. During this tough market, everyone has been holding on for a long time.

$PI Everyone should have patience and confidence in the project. After all, we haven't open-sourced yet, haven't launched smart contracts, and haven't activated the mainnet nodes. Institutions and large investors won't be entering the market yet.
However, good news is coming: the DEX will go live in 6 days.
