On April 7, traders involved in related shipping reported that since the outbreak of hostilities weeks ago, Iran has not allowed any liquefied natural gas (LNG) carriers to pass through the Hormuz Strait, a ban that could exacerbate global supply shortages. On Monday, two tankers loaded with Qatari LNG appeared to be preparing to leave the Persian Gulf, but turned back hours later. Traders stated that these two vessels were not granted permission by Iranian officials. This sudden turnaround highlights that since the U.S. and Israel began airstrikes against Iran in late February, the Hormuz Strait has evidently been in a state of blockade. The traffic of vessels through the strait has significantly decreased, although tankers and other ships still occasionally pass through, usually requiring Iranian permission—while about one-fifth of global LNG supply remains cut off. Sources indicate that currently, fully loaded LNG carriers are scattered throughout the Persian Gulf, either because they have not yet engaged in negotiations with Iran regarding passage or have not received approval. Vessel tracking data shows that more than a dozen fully loaded LNG carriers are in a state of detention in the region. It is also possible that some vessels have evaded monitoring by turning off their transponders or that signal interference has led to inaccurate tracking. However, both traders and vessel tracking data indicate that only one LNG carrier has managed to exit the Hormuz Strait earlier this month—but it was not loaded with cargo.

According to monitoring by 1M AI News, Chris Park, head of the X developer platform, announced that the X API will continue to be free for public utility applications that provide emergency alerts and public service updates. Additionally, a new API program aimed at public utility developers will be launched, offering clear access guidelines, expanded access permissions, and more resource support. On February 6 of this year, X shifted its API pricing to a pay-per-use model, eliminating the free tier for new developers, with costs set at $0.01 per post and $0.005 per read. Previously, free access for public utility applications was granted on a case-by-case basis without a publicly available standard process. This announcement formally upgrades this exemption to a structured developer program, providing a long-awaited but clear assurance for public welfare applications that rely on X data to distribute critical information, such as emergency alerts and weather warnings.

On April 7, Axios reported that a US official stated that Iran's response was "tough," but the White House believes it is a negotiation strategy rather than a rejection. Communications are ongoing with the Iranians regarding amendments and redrafting efforts. If Trump perceives a possibility of reaching an agreement, he may delay military action against Iran. Trump's advisors have informed mediators that the president needs to see positive signs from Iran before considering a postponement. One individual remarked, "We are at a critical moment in negotiations, and anything could happen." Two sources indicated that a large-scale bombing plan targeting Iranian energy facilities is ready if Trump gives the order.

In a recent interview with Punk6529, Garga, co-founder of Bored Ape Yacht Club, shared his thoughts on the metaverse, saying that Facebook is more focused on hardware, while Yuga Labs (BAYC's parent company) is more focused on social spaces. Garga explained, "Our vision for the metaverse is a space for people to engage socially, and we want to spend our time in the digital space. I think that when we have a metaverse space that we can embrace ...... a lot of potential and experience opens up to build the metaverse on the blockchain and it's inherently better to do that and that's where Yuga Labs can compete with other giants." In addition, Garga revealed that the Otherside metaverse "Persistent World" will arrive in 2023, but it will be a long-lasting process with many experiences, but does not expect Otherside to be "like any Web2 game".
