On April 8, the White House Council of Economic Advisers (CEA) released an analysis report stating that prohibiting crypto companies from offering yields on stablecoins will have minimal impact on the deposit and loan operations of small or community banks. Economic modeling indicates that even with the ban in place, overall bank loans would only increase by 0.02%, approximately $2.1 billion, while community bank loans would see a mere increase of 0.026%, around $500 million. Even under the 'worst-case' scenario—where the stablecoin market grows sixfold—community bank loans would only rise by 6.7%, about $129 billion, which is significantly lower than the banking industry's prior warnings of a 'catastrophic' outcome involving a $1.3 trillion loss in deposits and an $850 billion reduction in loans. The report directly counters the concerns raised by banking lobby groups regarding stablecoin yield products, asserting that stablecoins do not pose a significant threat to traditional banks. Currently, the U.S. Congress is at an impasse regarding the regulation of stablecoins under the 'Cryptocurrency Market Structure Act' (the CLARITY Act), with banking groups pushing to restrict stablecoin yields while the crypto industry seeks a clear legal framework. The conclusions of the White House Council of Economic Advisers may influence the upcoming legislative discussions.

On April 8, according to the Financial Times, Iran will require shipping companies to pay a toll in cryptocurrency (Bitcoin) for oil tankers passing through the Strait of Hormuz during a two-week ceasefire, in order to maintain control over the waterway. Hamid Hosseini, a spokesperson for the Iranian Oil, Gas, and Petrochemical Exporters Union, stated that each tanker must report its cargo information to Iranian authorities via email, after which Iran will inform them of the toll amount, which must be paid in cryptocurrency. The fee is set at $1 per barrel of oil, while empty tankers can pass for free. 'Once the email arrives and Iran completes its assessment, vessels are given a few seconds to pay in bitcoin, ensuring they can't be traced or confiscated due to sanctions.'

On April 8, U.S. Defense Secretary Hegseth stated that the U.S. has achieved a decisive military victory in Iran, which had begged for the ceasefire agreement. On Tuesday night, the U.S. launched 800 airstrikes, destroying Iran's defense industrial base. Iran can no longer manufacture missiles, rockets, or drones. The ceasefire means that Iran will never have nuclear weapons. The U.S. military objectives in Iran have been met, and the ceasefire is just a pause; the coalition is always ready to resume operations. We hope Iran chooses lasting peace. There is a consensus that the Strait of Hormuz is now open. Iran will allow vessels to pass, and warships 'will transit' the Strait of Hormuz. The ceasefire agreement will take some time to take effect.
