Regional payment risks emerge as Iran turns to Bitcoin amid sanctions
On April 15, Iranian authorities implemented a Bitcoin-based toll system for vessels transiting the Strait of Hormuz, signaling the use of crypto for cross-border payments by a sanctioned state. The same day saw a Chinese-owned, US-sanctioned oil tanker breach the US naval blockade in the Strait, highlighting ongoing sanctions evasion and the rise of shadow payment channels. US and Iranian officials continued nuclear negotiations, with the US enforcing a naval blockade and Iran threatening retaliation against Gulf state ports, elevating regional risk.

BTC is trading decisively above its SMA-20 ($69,793.40) and SMA-50 ($69,699.73), confirming a robust short- and medium-term bullish trend. However, it stays below the SMA-200 ($87,365.33), indicating longer-term resistance. The Ichimoku Kijun level at $70,519.00 offers immediate support. Intraday momentum remains positive as the MACD generates a Buy signal and the Awesome Oscillator is bullish, though the ADX at 13.66 implies the trend is currently weak but upward. Overbought signals are present from the RSI (62.35), CCI (122.69), Stoch RSI, and BBP, pointing to strong buyer dominance and possible risk of overextension. Price is near today’s high of $75,232.73, contributing to elevated volatility despite some divergence in momentum indicators.

Can the Bulls Take Bitcoin to $80K This Week?

Bitcoin moved higher Thursday thanks to hope that a peace deal would soon be reached between Iran and the United States

Selling pressure on Bitcoin is easing as it approaches $75,000, with potential to reach $80,000 soon.

Market indicators suggest a bullish trend, with realized losses decreasing significantly from $2 billion to $400 million daily.

The ongoing conflict in the Middle East has influenced investor behavior, but Bitcoin has shown resilience and recovery.

The broader cryptocurrency market is also experiencing gains, with several altcoins seeing positive movement.

Industry experts say that sellers are losing momentum on Bitcoin and that market indicators point toward a long bullish streak. The coin hit $74,8681 (BTC/USD) on Thursday and gained 0.58% from the previous day. Trade volume slowed from the previous session, but strong ETF inflows for the week show that Bitcoin is active and well supported.

Drift gets $148 million funding from Tether and partners as it replaces Circle stablecoin with USDT after massive exploit

Drift Protocol, the victim of a recent North Korean exploit, plans to relaunch with Tether's $USDT as its settlement layer after securing a proposed funding package of up to $147.5 million from the stablecoin issuer and partners, the companies said on Thursday.

The deal includes up to $127.5 million from Tether and $20 million from the other partners, structured to support user recovery following Drift’s April 1 exploit and to reboot the platform as a $USDT-based perpetual futures exchange on Solana. Previously, the platform used Circle's stablecoin $USDC as its settlement layer.

The rescue package combines a revenue-linked credit facility, ecosystem grants and loans to market makers. A portion of trading revenue, alongside committed capital, will be directed to a recovery pool aimed at covering roughly $295 million in user losses over time.

The funding comes after a North Korea-linked group infiltrated Drift Protocol, posing as a quantitative trading firm for about six months before carrying out an exploit that was more than $270 million on April 1. Drift's governance token, DRIFT, has lost about 70% of its value since the exploit.

Circle came under fire from the crypto community for its seeming unwillingness to halt the money transfer after the exploit. The attacker moved about $232 million in $USDC from Solana to Ethereum using Circle’s cross-chain transfer protocol. Some critics, including blockchain investigator ZachXBT, said Circle could have moved faster to blacklist wallets and freeze funds to prevent (or at least slow down) the attacker from moving the assets.

However, Circle's didn't take any such actions due to legal risks.

Its CEO, Jeremy Allaire, later said that his company freezes $USDC wallets only when direc
