On April 4, Cryptoquant analyst Darkfost reported a significant market shift in Ethereum derivatives, marking the first occurrence since the 2023 bear market. Darkfost noted that while the net trading volume for ETH has been negative for most of 2023, it has now turned positive. (Note: Net trading volume is an indicator used to assess whether buying or selling pressure dominates the derivatives order book.) Currently, this indicator shows that buying pressure is dominant, with buying amounts reaching $104 million. It is noteworthy that even during previous peaks in Ethereum's price, this indicator indicated strong selling pressure, but this situation seems to be changing now. Darkfost believes that the positive buying pressure facing Ethereum could help form a stronger bottom. If this dynamic continues and the spot market and ETFs begin to support this trend, Ethereum may potentially resume its upward trajectory.

On April 4, Chris Doyle, director of the Arab-British Understanding Committee (CAABU), stated that Iran's recent downing of a U.S. military aircraft during the war holds significant implications for Iran's reputation. He noted, 'This indicates that it is confronting the military superpower of the United States and is at least competing with it on both symmetrical and asymmetrical levels.' Doyle remarked that if we look back five or six weeks, the war was expected to end in a day. 'Trump had told allies, 'I don’t need your help,' but now it is far from that; he appears quite passive. The White House seems chaotic, and the Pentagon is firing generals, which indeed gives the impression that U.S. leadership is not in control of the situation.' Doyle believes, 'When the U.S. engages in the Middle East, there are usually concerns about 'mission creep,' where objectives continuously expand. But now it is 'mission contraction': initially, regime change was seen as absolutely necessary, which justified strikes against the Iranian leadership, but now figures like Trump are stating, 'We are not here for regime change.' Meanwhile, Iran seems to have a stronger grasp on its objectives, able to escalate the situation at will and expand the conflict when necessary.' He concluded, 'If the U.S. cannot manage these issues, its credibility on the global stage will decline.'

On April 4, Bloomberg reported that global financial services platform Marex Group Plc has issued the world's first bond-like note linked to prediction market outcomes. Unlike traditional binary options contracts, the specific terms of this product state that if Nvidia Corp. remains the largest company by market capitalization one year from now, investors will receive a 7% coupon; if not, the principal will be fully returned (only losing potential interest, with no risk to the entire principal). The issuance size of this note is approximately $10 million and has been sold to Swiss institutional clients, limited to regions outside the United States due to regulatory reasons. Marex can dynamically hedge risks through prediction market platforms like Kalshi. The report notes that this is the latest attempt by Wall Street institutions to 'securitize' the energy of prediction markets, providing traditional large funds with a compliant and lower-risk entry method.
