The ongoing Middle East conflict is expected to widen economic inequality across Latin America and the Caribbean, according to the International Monetary Fund. While oil-exporting nations stand to gain short-term advantages, Caribbean tourism-dependent economies and energy-importing Central American countries face a worsening financial outlook.The IMF's warning follows its latest World Economic Outlook, which projects regional growth of 2.3% in 2026 — nearly unchanged from 2.4% in 2025 — before rising to 2.7% in 2027. Brazil, the region's largest economy, is expected to expand by 1.9% this year, while Mexico is forecast at 1.6% growth.According to the IMF, Latin America and the Caribbean entered 2026 on relatively stable footing, with inflation approaching target levels and growth tracking near trend in most countries. However, the escalating Middle East war has introduced a new external shock, triggering market volatility, tighter lending conditions, and dramatic swings in global commodity prices.Oil markets have been especially turbulent. Both Brent and WTI crude prices dropped more than 10% in a single session after Iran's foreign minister confirmed commercial vessel passage through the Strait of Hormuz remained open amid a ceasefire. Despite the dip, both benchmarks have surged approximately 45% so far in 2026.Among the clearest short-term beneficiaries are the region's oil producers. Countries including Argentina, Brazil, Colombia, Ecuador, Guyana, Trinidad and Tobago, and Venezuela have gained from elevated energy prices, which have boosted export revenues, strengthened public finances, and eased pressure on their external balances. Even so, the IMF cautioned that households across all these economies are still feeling the pinch through rising fuel and food costs.The divergence highlights how a single geopolitical crisis can produce vastly

Zondacrypto under fire as Poland's prime minister links exchange to legislative interference



Polish cryptocurrency exchange Zondacrypto's problems just keep mounting.

Already under fire following reports of frozen or delayed customer withdrawals, the company on Friday drew the ire of Prime Minister Donald Tusk, who told parliament the company had sponsored some politicians who opposed crypto market regulation.

Blocking the legislation by some politicians showed they were toeing Zondacrypto's line, Tusk said before a vote to overturn President Karol Nawrocki's veto of the law, according to a report by AP. The exchange has links to Russia and had previously provided the lawmakers with financial support, he said.

Tusk's comments came a day after Zondacrypto CEO Przemysław Kral turned to X to defuse allegations the company was helping itself to investors' funds to bulk up its declining reserves.

In a statement and video published on the platform, Kral said the exchange had sufficient reserves, and owns a bitcoin wallet holding about 4,500 BTC, about $330 million. There is a problem, though: It can't access the funds because the previous owner didn't hand over the private key and has now disappeared.

Delayed withdrawals

Kral said he revealed the wallet address to "cut short the unfounded accusations of alleged misappropriation of funds." The key was not handed over by former CEO Sylwester Suszek in 2021, when ownership of the exchange, then known as BitBay, transferred and Kral took over. Suszek has been missing for four years.

Zondacrypto has faced reports of frozen or delayed customer withdrawals since late March, according to local news reports. Kral denied any misuse of client funds and said the exchange remains profitable. He publicized the inaccessible wallet to prove the exchange has reserves, he said.

Kral framed the situation as part o

$ETH  I’ve started planning a relatively large spot position for the next cycle.

For something that’s still the second-biggest asset in the space, this chart could end up looking seriously undervalued if it keeps holding this structure.

That said, price still feels like it’s in a mid-bear rally, and I’m not trying to get caught on the wrong side if we see another 20–30% downside from here.

My approach is to deploy a solid chunk of capital and DCA over a few months, but only if price comes back into the blue zone on my cloud that’s where I see real accumulation.

This would be a medium to long-term hold with a very asymmetric setup. Even a move back to the upper boundary gives around a 12RR.

Definitely one I’ll be coming back to in a few years.

Global financial markets and world leaders are navigating a wave of cautious optimism mixed with uncertainty after President Donald Trump announced a breakthrough in U.S.-Iran negotiations, including what he described as Iran's agreement to fully reopen the strategically vital Strait of Hormuz.The turbulence began Friday when Trump took to social media to claim Iran had consented to surrender its enriched uranium stockpile and unblock the strait — a waterway that facilitates roughly one-fifth of the world's crude oil supply. The announcement initially sparked hopes for lasting de-escalation following a conflict that erupted in late February. However, those hopes were quickly tempered by Iranian pushback. Lawmaker Mahmoud Nabavian denied the strait was "fully open," asserting that Iran would continue collecting tolls on commercial shipping — a position reinforced by state-aligned Iranian media.Adding to the confusion were conflicting reports about the financial terms of a possible deal. Sources familiar with the negotiations suggested the U.S. offered Iran access to $20 billion in frozen assets in exchange for uranium concessions — a claim Trump later publicly denied. Analysts widely view Trump's conflicting declarations as a calculated pressure tactic designed to accelerate Tehran's decision-making toward a final agreement.Despite the diplomatic fog, formal talks appear to be progressing. Senior U.S. officials indicated that Pakistan-mediated negotiations could resume as early as Monday, with Vice President JD Vance, Steve Witkoff, and Jared Kushner expected to lead the American delegation. French President Emmanuel Macron and British Prime Minister Keir Starmer have both called for measured expectations, stressing that any breakthrough must translate into durable, enforceable solutions before energy markets can confidently price in a peace prem
