Quick overview

The S&P 500 gained amid speculation of a deal that could revive energy flows through the Strait of Hormuz, while the Dow Jones Industrial Average reached all-time highs.

US crude prices settled around $96, with Iran indicating some progress in negotiations with Washington, despite concerns over its uranium stockpile.

Traders are closely monitoring negotiations regarding the reopening of Hormuz, as its closure has led to skyrocketing energy prices and market instability.

Walmart Inc. highlighted the impact of rising fuel costs on its profits, suggesting potential price increases for consumers.

HTX Pizza Day Celebration: $200,000 Up for Grabs

The crypto market saw another sharp selloff today as nearly $86 billion disappeared from the total market value within hours. The global crypto market cap dropped from around $2.57 trillion to nearly $2.49 trillion, while Bitcoin briefly fell to $74,255, recording a 4% decline over the past 24 hours.

Major altcoins were hit even harder, including Ethereum, Solana, XRP, BNB, and Dogecoin, all of which dropped between 5% and 9% as traders rushed to reduce risk across the market.

One of the biggest reasons behind today’s crash was a fresh regulatory setback tied to tokenized stock trading.

Reports suggested the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission had delayed a proposed framework that could have allowed blockchain-based trading of tokenized U.S. stocks like Apple and Tesla.

The proposal would have allowed crypto firms and decentralized finance platforms to offer tokenized versions of public company shares while still treating them as securities under U.S. law.

The setback weakened investor confidence across crypto markets, especially after the odds of the Crypto Market Structure Bill being signed into law dropped from 75% to 62%.

At the same time, geopolitical fears also pushed markets lower.

Reports that the Trump administration was preparing for possible military strikes against Iran increased concerns about another oil price spike.

Higher oil prices could worsen inflation and reduce the chances of future Federal Reserve rate cuts, something that usually hurts crypto and other risk assets.

Meanwhile, rising U.S. Treasury yields and record-high Japanese bond yields are also adding pressure to financial markets globally.

The sharp market drop triggered massive liquidations across leveraged crypto positions.

According to CoinGlass data, more than 160,000 traders were liquidated during the past 24 hours, with
