On March 20, rising crude oil prices have become a headache for overseas importers, but they may pass the pain onto US assets. Following the US-Israel attack on Iran, global oil import costs have surged, while the currencies of most major economies have weakened against the US dollar. This double blow has created a situation where, with a strengthening dollar and soaring oil prices, foreign countries and corporations, in order to pay for suddenly more expensive oil, may ultimately have to sell off their holdings of US stocks and bonds. This is a risk worth monitoring, especially given the growing share of US market holdings by foreign countries and governments. Bridgette Kula, a portfolio manager at Wellington Management, stated that so far, foreign investors have not needed to liquidate US assets to finance higher energy costs. However, if oil prices remain elevated, these countries (such as Japan and South Korea) might need to reduce their holdings of US stocks and bonds to obtain funds for energy imports. (JIN10)

According to 1M AI News monitoring, Jeffrey Quesnelle, co-founder and CEO of Nous Research, announced that the Hermes Agent he developed has independently completed the entire writing and typesetting of the novel "The Second Son of the House of Bells," comprising 19 chapters and 79,456 words. He distributed printed copies to attendees at the NVIDIA GTC event, stating that creating an AI system capable of telling compelling stories "has always been his dream." The entire process was self-constructed by the Agent and divided into four stages: The foundational layers such as world-building, characters, outline, and tone were iteratively generated until a satisfactory score was achieved. The second stage involved drafting chapter by chapter, with chapters scoring below 6.0 being discarded and rewritten. The third stage involved adversarial editing and reader panel simulations. Finally, it was fed into Claude Opus, which acted as both a "literary critic + novel professor" in a dual role, iteratively reviewing the manuscript until no significant improvements could be made. Quesnelle stated that the framework draws inspiration from Andrej Karpathy's proposed Autoresearch "modify-evaluate-keep/discard" loop and extends it to novel creation, directly tagging Karpathy in a tweet. Karpathy replied: "This is a great idea, and while it's hard to rigorously validate, if done with care, the results should be good." Nous Research is known for its Hermes series of open-source models and previously proposed the YaRN context extension method.

On March 20, Chloe, a columnist for HTX DeepThink and a researcher at HTX Research, analyzed the current macro variables impacting the cryptocurrency market. The logic has shifted from 'loose expectations driving risk appetite' to a dual pressure of 'high interest rates lasting longer + energy shocks raising inflation tail risks.' Although the Federal Reserve maintains a median forecast for one rate cut this year, the core message conveyed by Powell is clear: if inflation does not show substantial decline, further rate cuts should not be expected. Short-term U.S. Treasury yields have risen, indicating that the market is correcting overly optimistic rate cut expectations. For the cryptocurrency market, high beta altcoins, AI concept coins, and purely narrative-driven assets are likely to be more impacted. Meanwhile, the situation in the Middle East is pushing up oil prices, renewing the risk of 'secondary inflation.' The Bank of Japan remains on hold, but the direction for future rate hikes has not changed. In the coming weeks, two key variables need to be monitored: whether U.S. inflation and employment data reinforce the expectation of 'higher rates for longer,' and whether the Bank of Japan signals a rate hike around April. If both resonate hawkishly, the cryptocurrency market is likely to remain in a phase characterized by 'high volatility, heavy structure, and light beta.' From a market observation perspective, the current environment may favor more defensive allocation strategies. BTC, with its liquidity, market consensus, and some safe-haven attributes amidst macro uncertainty, is worth watching for relative performance; ETH's movement depends more on on-chain activity, ETF funding, and risk appetite recovery; while most altcoins face some valuation compression pressure. Overall, the market is transitioning from 'expectations of easing' to 'readjusting to restrictive rates and geopolitical shocks,' with the short-term focus not on broad risk expansion, but rather on waiting for a repricing window after the macro path becomes clearer.

On March 20, according to CoinDesk, major economies announced joint actions on Friday to stabilize energy markets. Bitcoin rebounded as oil prices fell, briefly rising to $70,800, an increase of over 1% for the day, extending its recovery from the previous overnight low below $68,900. Major cryptocurrencies such as Ethereum, XRP, and SOL saw gains of less than 1%, significantly underperforming Bitcoin. Regarding oil prices, the UK, France, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, and Japan jointly issued a statement announcing measures to stabilize energy markets and coordinated actions to ensure the safety of shipping in the Strait of Hormuz. The six countries, in a joint statement released by the office of UK Prime Minister Starmer, condemned Iran's attacks and urged them to cease immediately. Influenced by this, WTI crude oil fell by nearly 2% to $93.80 per barrel, with Brent crude experiencing a similar decline. Earlier this week, US Treasury Secretary Bessent stated that the US might soon lift sanctions on Iranian oil tankers and is considering releasing strategic petroleum reserves. However, the brief dip in oil prices has not eliminated market uncertainty. Mott Capital Management indicated that WTI is currently holding at a significant support level, coinciding with previous highs and short-term trends. As long as oil prices remain above this support, an upward bias may continue, and the structure of options market positions suggests further upside potential for oil prices. In the stock market, the S&P 500 closed below its 200-day moving average on Thursday for the first time since May of last year, indicating a shift in momentum towards bearishness. If risk aversion in the stock market intensifies, it could further drag down cryptocurrencies and broader financial markets.

On March 20th, U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) Chair Paul Atkins released the "Regulation Crypto Assets" framework at the "SEC Speaks" conference. This marks a shift from "enforcement-driven regulation" towards a clear rule-based system. The framework categorizes digital assets, identifying Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Solana as "digital commodities," primarily regulated by the CFTC. The SEC will focus on "digital securities," which are tokens with clear rights to profits or assets.

Furthermore, the framework introduces a "token safe harbor" mechanism, allowing projects to develop and raise funds under simplified disclosure requirements for up to three years. The SEC has also signed a Memorandum of Understanding with the CFTC to reduce duplicate regulation and clarify responsibilities.
