On April 1, Jaret Seiberg, Managing Director at TD Cowen, expressed an increasingly pessimistic outlook on the prospects of the Clarity Act, the crypto market structure bill, in a research report released on Monday. He believes the probability of the Senate advancing the bill and it passing the House is only one-third. The bill currently remains stalled in the U.S. Senate, as Congress has entered a two-week Easter recess. Seiberg pointed out that a recent compromise proposal on stablecoin yields, pushed by Senators Thom Tillis and Angela Alsobrooks, is 'insufficient' to advance the bill. This proposal prohibits earning yields on idle stablecoin balances but allows activity-based rewards when using stablecoins. Seiberg believes this compromise may not satisfy either party: it would hinder crypto platforms from using stablecoins for liquidity management, while for banks, it would incentivize crypto platforms to push stablecoins for everyday payments, threatening core deposit business. Seiberg stated that the bill is most likely to advance in late July before Congress's August recess, at which point recess pressure may force senators to reach a compromise. He also noted that even senators who were previously optimistic are lowering their expectations, with Senator Mark Warner reducing the probability of the bill's passage from 80% to 50% to 60%.

On April 1, OpenAI completed a $122 billion financing round, bringing the company's valuation to $852 billion. This marks the largest financing round for the company to date, supporting its expensive investments in chips, data centers, and talent. Most of the funds in this months-long preparation came from three major tech companies. Amazon agreed to invest $50 billion in this round, while NVIDIA and SoftBank Group each invested $30 billion. A significant portion of Amazon's investment ($35 billion) is contingent on OpenAI's ability to go public or achieve a technological milestone in general artificial intelligence. OpenAI also raised over $3 billion from individual investors through bank channels for the first time. The company reported that it currently generates $2 billion in revenue per month, with enterprise sales accounting for 40% of its revenue, expected to rise to 50% by the end of the year.

On April 1, the White House stated on Tuesday that the U.S. military is prepared to thwart any attacks from Iran. This response comes after threats from the Iranian Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) against American businesses in the Middle East. "The U.S. military has always been ready to deter any attacks from Iran, and the 90% decrease in the regime's ballistic missile and drone attacks is clear evidence of that," a White House official stated. Reports indicate that the IRGC announced earlier on Tuesday that it would take action against U.S.-owned businesses in the region starting April 1, as retaliation for attacks against Iran.

On April 1, local time March 31, Iranian Foreign Minister Amir-Abdollahian stated that the current situation is "not negotiations," but rather an exchange of information through direct channels or "regional friends." Iran continues to receive messages from U.S. representative Witkoff, but this does not mean that negotiations have commenced; the exchanges are primarily for "warnings or exchanging views." He pointed out that Iran is not currently negotiating with any specific party, and the information exchange is coordinated by the Foreign Ministry under the supervision of security agencies, strictly advancing within an official framework under the oversight of the government and the Supreme National Security Council. Amir-Abdollahian emphasized that Iran has not responded to the 15 proposals put forth by the U.S. and has not made any proposals or conditions. Iran has yet to make a final decision on the principles of negotiation, but the conditions for ending the war are "very clear": Iran "will not agree to a ceasefire," but demands a "complete end to the war in the entire region."

According to Coindesk, FTX US temporarily ceased processing withdrawals around midday Friday before inexplicably restarting hours later, adding to the confusion of a chaotic week that saw the ouster of exchange CEO Sam Bankman-Fried. The manual shutdown occurred shortly after midday New York time, according to a person familiar with the matter as well as on-chain data. But later Friday the exchange appeared to resume processing withdrawals. FTX itself had halted withdrawals earlier this week, though customers in certain jurisdictions, such as Japan, the Bahamas and Turkey – were able to begin withdrawing some funds by Friday. FTX US on Thursday warned users it might halt trading in the coming days, but said withdrawals would not be impacted.
