Israel-Lebanon Ceasefire Begins Today After Trump Announcement

President Trump announced Thursday that Israel and Lebanon have agreed to a 10-day ceasefire beginning at 5 PM ET today, April 16, following direct conversations with Lebanese President Joseph Aoun and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

President Trump announced Thursday that Israel and Lebanon have agreed to a 10-day ceasefire, beginning at 5 PM ET today, following what he described as “excellent conversations” with Lebanese President Joseph Aoun and Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu. “These two Leaders have agreed that in order to achieve PEACE between their Countries, they will formally begin a 10 Day CEASEFIRE at 5 P.M. EST,” Trump wrote on Truth Social.

Trump said he has directed Vice President JD Vance, Secretary of State Marco Rubio, and Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Dan Caine to work toward a lasting peace agreement. He also invited Aoun and Netanyahu to the White House for what he called “the first meaningful talks between Israel and Lebanon since 1983.”

What Led to the Ceasefire

The announcement came after a turbulent morning of diplomacy. Lebanese President Aoun initially declined to speak directly with Netanyahu during a call with Secretary Rubio, with Washington signaling it “understands Lebanon’s position.” Trump then personally called Aoun, and the ceasefire announcement followed within hours.

The deal grew out of direct negotiations that began Tuesday between the Lebanese and Israeli ambassadors to the United States, the first such talks between the two countries in decades. Lebanon had insisted on a ceasefire as a precondition for any broader engagement, while committing to disarm Hezbollah over time.

Iran’s chief negotiator Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf said Thursday morning that “a ceasefire in Lebanon is as important as a ceasefire in Iran,” framing th

Claim1,200 USDT in the Monthly Creation Challenge

DAO price has been on a massive run since the beginning of the month, rising over 7550%, forming highs close to $20. After a near-parabolic move from $2 to $19.66, the price is now pressing against a key resistance zone while momentum begins to slow. The rise has been largely driven by aggressive short liquidations and not steady organic demand, which raises the concern on the sustainability of the rally. 

As the price tightens within a structure, signs of buyer exhaustion emerge. The focus shifts from upside potential to risk management. The real test is whether this is a continuation set-up or the start of a deeper correction.

"It's crazy": Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) Chairman Selig grilled by lawmakers over prediction markets, Hyperliquid, and staffing

CFTC Chairman Michael Selig was questioned about Hyperliquid, prediction markets, and whether his agency has enough staff to regulate these new areas.

The top Democrat on the committee, Representative Angie Craig, expressed concern about the agency's ability to oversee prediction markets, given that it may lack enforcement staff.
Commodity Futures Trading Commission Chairman Michael Selig has been criticized by lawmakers over how he plans to regulate prediction markets, given the agency's assertive assertion of jurisdiction over them, and whether the CFTC has enough staff to do so.

 On Thursday, during a hearing of the House Agriculture Committee, which oversees the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC), lawmakers questioned Selig about prediction markets, which have recently come under scrutiny after contracts were created allowing people to bet on events such as the death of Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, with one trade reportedly netting nearly half a million dollars.

"That's crazy," said Rep. Jim Costa, a California Democrat, during the hearing. "Do you think that's what was intended?"

Selig said the CFTC has broad legislation, adding that the agency received advance notice of the proposed rule change to figure out how to "address the problem of these new markets."

"I don't think that's a satisfactory answer," Costa said.  "I don't believe this is market innovation—it's profiting from tragedy, and I think we need to take a closer look at where this is all leading."

In March, the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) published a preliminary notice of proposed rules regarding exchanges' approach to listing contracts on prediction markets. Prediction market platf

Bitcoin Bitcoin, Ethereum Ethereum, and the broader cryptocurrency market declined on Sunday after U.S. and Iranian negotiators failed to reach a peace agreement.
Bitcoin dropped around 2.6% in the past 24 hours, trading near $71,093 and briefly touching lows of about $70,600. Ethereum fell roughly 3.6%, while XRP and Solana also declined by 2% and 3.25% respectively. The GMCI 30 index, which tracks the top 30 crypto assets, slipped around 2.5%.
The market reaction followed the collapse of extended talks in Islamabad, which reportedly lasted more than 20 hours. U.S. officials said Iranian representatives refused to accept proposed terms, while Iranian state media blamed “unreasonable demands” from Washington.
Earlier optimism around a potential ceasefire had briefly supported risk assets, but sentiment quickly reversed as negotiations failed to progress. Investors remain cautious, with uncertainty still high over whether a broader diplomatic breakthrough is possible.
Adding further pressure, geopolitical tensions escalated after reports that the U.S. increased naval pressure around the Strait of Hormuz, a key global oil shipping route, raising fears of further regional instability.
Despite the short-term selloff, some analysts say the underlying institutional trend in crypto remains intact, with macro-driven volatility continuing to dominate price action.

France and Britain are set to co-chair a high-stakes diplomatic meeting bringing together approximately 40 nations to address the growing crisis in the Strait of Hormuz. The gathering signals that key U.S. allies are prepared to take an active role in restoring international shipping access once the conditions on the ground allow for it.The strait has been largely inaccessible to non-Iranian vessels since U.S. and Israeli airstrikes began on February 28. The situation escalated further when Washington imposed a blockade on Iranian ports earlier this week. President Donald Trump has since urged allied nations to support the enforcement of that blockade, drawing criticism from European partners who argue that participation would effectively mean entering the conflict.European powers including Britain and France have firmly stated they will not join the blockade but have expressed willingness to help guarantee freedom of navigation once a ceasefire or resolution is reached. The proposed mission, which currently excludes both the United States and Iran, is designed to be strictly defensive in nature. Despite this, European diplomats acknowledge that any viable long-term operation would need coordination with both Washington and Tehran. The U.S. will be briefed following the meeting.Central to Friday's agenda is the humanitarian and economic toll the crisis is taking on the global shipping industry. Over 20,000 seafarers remain stranded, with numerous commercial vessels also trapped. Participants will discuss diplomatic support for international maritime law, economic relief measures, and preparations for a potential multinational naval deployment.French President Emmanuel Macron, UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer, German Chancellor Friedrich Merz, and Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni will attend in person in Paris.
