Bitcoin steadies as Iran reopens Hormuz but Trump keeps crypto‑fuelled oil squeeze
Iran’s move to fully reopen the Strait of Hormuz while Donald Trump keeps Iran’s ships under blockade has left oil and Bitcoin trading the ceasefire headline by headline.
Iran says the Strait of Hormuz is fully open to commercial traffic again.

Trump vows the US naval blockade on Iranian ships and ports “will remain in full force.”

Bitcoin holds near war‑zone ranges as oil traders weigh partial relief for supply.

Iran’s announcement that it has fully reopened the Strait of Hormuz has eased the worst energy shock fears, but President Donald Trump’s decision to maintain a US naval blockade on Iranian ships and ports has kept oil and crypto markets on edge. Around 20% of the world’s oil normally moves through the strait, making it one of the most important chokepoints for global energy and a key macro driver for Bitcoin’s btc5.04%Bitcoin role as a geopolitical hedge.

Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said on X that the waterway is now “fully open” to commercial vessels, signaling Tehran’s willingness to restore flows even as a fragile 10‑day truce between Israel and Iran‑backed Hezbollah in Lebanon holds. Trump initially echoed that tone, posting that Iran had declared the strait “fully open and ready for full passage” before reversing minutes later and insisting the blockade will continue “UNTIL SUCH TIME AS OUR TRANSACTION WITH IRAN IS 100% COMPLETE.”
Trump first ordered the blockade earlier this week after Iran partially restricted traffic through the strait, a move Washington framed as a breach of the Pakistan‑brokered ceasefire between the US, Israel and Iran.

Bitcoin is at a stage where it is too strong to panic, and too uncertain to celebrate. Sitting around the $74,000–$75,000 range, the market looks calm on the surface, but underneath? It’s a psychological tug-of-war where sentiment, not price, is calling the shots.

When Crowd Cheers Loudest, Trouble Follows Fast
Here’s the uncomfortable truth, per recent Santiment insights, the retail traders tend to peak emotionally right when markets peak structurally. The surge in “rally” and “moon” chatter isn’t just noise; it’s often a warning sign. When everyone’s already in, there’s no one left to push prices higher. That’s your local top.

Bitcoin’s ceasefire boost is starting to fizzle out as investors look for real-world results


Bitcoin's price action signals the momentum from U.S.–Iran ceasefire headlines is fading and markets are looking for substantive progress that could unwind war-driven stress across the global economy.

The largest cryptocurrency briefly topped $76,000 early today, only to fall back in a repeat of Tuesday's choppy pattern. The stall follows a 10% climb, predominantly driven by news of the Iran-U.S. ceasefire from a week ago.

However, while optimism persists and President Donald Trump suggests the conflict is nearing an end, progress in negotiations to restore oil flows through the Strait of Hormuz, a chokepoint that accounted for 20% of global flows before the war began, remains limited.

"A ceasefire extension alone is no longer enough. Markets need tangible progress such as restored energy flows, compression in crude premia, and clearer disinflation," QCP Capital, one of the largest digital asset market makers in the world, said in an email.

"Until then, this remains a story of partial normalization rather than full repair. Constructive, but not yet comfortable."

Traders should keep an eye on oil prices, as signs of normalization are likely to be evident in energy markets first. WTI recently traded near the weekly low of $87.50 and Brent around $90, a level it has held since April 8.

The continued decline in bitcoin and ether's 30-day implied volatility indexes suggests traders expect material progress soon.

In the meantime, solana (SOL) and could see increased volatility as open futures contracts tied to these tokens have climbed to multiweek highs. The increases point to rising demand for leveraged exposure, which often amplifies price swings through liquidations and heightened market turbulence.

The RHODL ratio has climbed to its third highest level on record, reflecting a market where long-term holders dominate following a 50% correction that flushed out short-term speculation.

While higher readings were seen in 2015 and 2022, further upside in the ratio would likely require a deeper collapse in demand, a scenario that appears less likely given bitcoin’s recovery and strong macro backdrop.

# Blockchain Forum 2026, Beaten-down digital asset treasury names lead crypto stock surge as bitcoin hits $78,00

Crypto-linked stocks surged Friday, led by a sharp rally in beaten-down digital asset treasury firms, as progress toward ending the Iran war jolted risk assets, sending bitcoin to a two-month high of $78,000.

U.S. President Donald Trump said in a Truth Social post that Iran committed to keeping open the Strait of Hormuz, a key artery for global energy markets.

"Iran has just announced that the Strait… is fully open and ready for full passage," Trump said in a Truth Social post, adding that peace talks between the countries were progressing. Reports that the U.S. is considering unfreezing $20 billion in Iranian assets and Trump's remarks about acquiring Iran's enriched uranium further boosted sentiment.

As the headlines helped calm fears of a prolonged energy shock, crude oil tanked 13% to near $80 per barrel.

Risk-on signal

"The reopening of the Strait of Hormuz is the risk-on signal the global markets have been waiting for," said Matt Mena, senior crypto research strategist at digital 21shares.

"By removing one of the most significant geopolitical chokepoints in the world, Iran has effectively uncorked a massive wave of liquidity and investor confidence," he added. "With oil nose diving below $85 for the first time in a month, inflation fears may finally come to an end."

Bitcoin climbed to $78,000, breaking out from a two-month range that capped prices since early February and up nearly 5% over the past 24 hours.

The move rippled across the broader cryptocurrency prices higher, with major altcoins ether (ETH), Solana (SOL) and $XRP ($XRP) posting 4%-5% gains.

Looking at crypto-related equities, the biggest winners were crypto treasury firms — companies that hold digital assets on their balance sheets — which had been heavily battered in recent months.

Ripple’s dollar stablecoin hits a wall in Japan, one of XRP’s friendliest markets, as megabanks earn most of the trust

Nomura’s latest survey suggests Japanese institutions trust stablecoins issued by major financial institutions most, a potential hurdle for RLUSD even in a market where XRP has long enjoyed unusual traction.

Japan has long been one of Ripple's most fertile markets. SBI's investment in Ripple dates to 2016, SBI Remit launched Japan's first XRP-enabled international remittance flow in 2021, and SBI VC Trade counts XRP among its most popular assets.

When Ripple and SBI announced in August 2025 that SBI VC Trade intended to distribute RLUSD in Japan, the move read as a natural extension of an already deep local partnership.

A recent survey of 518 investment professionals in Japan, conducted by Nomura and Laser Digital between December 2025 and January 2026 and released Apr. 16, found that 63% of respondents identified potential uses for stablecoins, spanning treasury management, cross-border payments, crypto investing, and tokenized securities.

Across JPY, USD, and EUR denominations, the stablecoins that drew the highest institutional trust were those issued by major financial institutions.

Japan may be Ripple's friendliest proving ground and precisely where the limits of crypto-branded stablecoins become visible.
Ripple's position in Japan goes beyond standard distribution agreements. SBI Ripple Asia, a joint venture formed from SBI's 2016 investment in Ripple, has operated as part of Ripple's regional infrastructure for nearly a decade.

SBI Remit began using Ripple Payments in 2017 and expanded XRP-based remittance corridors into the Philippines, Vietnam, and Indonesia in September 2023.

SBI VC Trade's own investor materials describe XRP as one of its most popular crypto assets among customers.

Citi Says Mixing Bitcoin With Gold Can Boost Your Portfolio Performance
Citi analysts say holding both gold and bitcoin can improve portfolio performance compared with traditional bond-and-equity mixes. In a new report cited by CNBC, analyst Alex Saunders said a 5% allocation to gold enhances portfolio efficiency, while splitting that exposure between gold and bitcoin produces stronger results.

The analysis found the mixed allocation improves returns in bond bull markets and provides resilience during bear-steepening cycles tied to fiscal concerns and rising inflation risk.

Citi noted that bitcoin often performs better than gold when bond markets weaken, highlighting recent gains amid geopolitical and equity market stress. Over the past two months, bitcoin has risen 9%, while spot gold has declined 4%. Saunders said the tactical appeal of a combined allocation lies in balancing the relative popularity of gold with bitcoin’s growth characteristics.

has once again sparked macroeconomic debate by suggesting a future model of Universal High Income, where governments distribute direct payments to citizens in response to AI-driven job disruption.
💡 Core idea:
AI and robotics massively boost productivity
Output of goods/services grows faster than money supply
Broad income distribution replaces traditional wage structures
Musk argues this could stabilize purchasing power while preventing severe inflation, even with large-scale cash distribution.
📊 Why this matters for markets
If such a system were ever implemented, it could significantly reshape global liquidity flows:
Income becomes widely distributed across millions of individuals
Capital concentration in institutions weakens
Retail participation in markets increases sharply
🚀 Potential impact on crypto
The cryptocurrency market, being one of the most accessible risk assets, could benefit strongly from this shift.
Historically, periods of stimulus and increased disposable income have led to:
Higher retail participation
Strong altcoin and DeFi cycles
Increased speculative liquidity inflows
Because of its accessibility, 24/7 trading, and high upside potential, crypto is often one of the first destinations for excess retail liquidity.
📉 But liquidity alone is not enough
Analysts also caution that:
Capital inflows without conviction often lead to volatility
Sustainable growth requires strong narratives, utility, and adoption
Liquidity must align with long-term ecosystem development
🧠 Bigger picture
A world where millions receive baseline income could structurally increase risk appetite and reshape how capital enters speculative markets — with crypto positioned as one of the primary beneficiaries.
📌 Bottom line: AI-driven wealth redistribution may not just change labor markets — it could fundamentally alter how liquidity flows into crypto and other risk assets.
