U.S. President Donald Trump has issued a warning concerning the strategic Strait of Hormuz, a critical passage for global oil shipments. According to NS3.AI, this development coincides with the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission's (CFTC) recent clarification on collateral requirements for Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH) in a pilot program.

Additionally, the CFTC has specified that stablecoins involved in the program must maintain a 2% capital adequacy ratio. The report also touches on various market activities, including trader liquidations, whale accumulation, and token buybacks.
