According to BlockBeats, on April 13, The Wall Street Journal reported that following unsuccessful marathon peace talks in Islamabad, Middle Eastern countries are urging the United States and Iran to return to negotiations. Despite both sides issuing strong statements, diplomatic channels remain open, and a second round of talks could occur within days. Regional nations are in discussions with the U.S. to extend the fragile two-week ceasefire announced on Tuesday evening. Iranian officials have proposed alternative suggestions, such as continuing symbolic uranium enrichment activities or reducing their enriched uranium stockpile, but no compromise has been reached.#MiddleEast #USIranTalks #PeaceNegotiations #Diplomacy #Ceasefire #IranUranium #BlockBeats #Islamabad #Iran #MiddleEasternNations #WallStreetJournal
🚀 Global Currency Order Restructuring May Lead to Long-Term Dollar Depreciation
#GlobalCurrencyOrder #DollarDepreciation #USDebt #DollarHegemony #FederalReserve #MonetaryPolicy #TrumpPolicies #CICCReport #FinancialMarkets #CurrencyRestructuring
According to Jin10, a report by China International Capital Corporation (CICC) suggests that after the short-term factors boosting the dollar fade, the narrative of global currency order restructuring and the weakening of dollar hegemony may once again dominate market direction. The United States' continuous accumulation of net external debt increases its need for dollar depreciation. The uncertainty surrounding U.S. President Donald Trump's policies and the unresolved risks of dollar 'weaponization' also dampen market demand for U.S. assets. The new Federal Reserve Chair, Walsh, advocates for a 'balance sheet reduction' policy, which could objectively help restore the dollar's credibility if implemented. However, Walsh's policy is constrained by the resilience of the real economy and financial markets, as well as political limitations. Additionally, Trump's foreign, trade, and economic policies continue to negatively impact the dollar's credibility. Considering the overall impact of Walsh and Trump's policies, it is difficult to conclude that the dollar's credibility will improve in the future. We anticipate that the global currency order may continue to restructure, driving the dollar to maintain a long-term depreciation trend.#GlobalCurrencyOrder #DollarDepreciation #USDebt #DollarHegemony #FederalReserve #MonetaryPolicy #TrumpPolicies #CICCReport #FinancialMarkets #CurrencyRestructuring
🚀 PRECIOUS METALS | U.S. Inflation and Fed Rate Cut Expectations Impact Gold Prices
#PreciousMetals #USInflation #FedRateCut #GoldPrices #CITICSecurities #OilPrices #CoreInflation #CPI #USDollar #USEquities #USTreasuryYields
On April 13, Jin10 reported that a research note from CITIC Securities highlighted the significant rise in U.S. overall inflation for March, driven by soaring oil prices, while core inflation remained moderate. According to Jin10, CITIC Securities anticipates minimal risk of secondary inflation in the U.S. and suggests that April's CPI may continue to show elevated growth due to compensatory increases in rental inflation. If oil prices decline slowly, U.S. CPI could remain above 3% year-on-year for the rest of the year.
CITIC Securities also forecasts a 25 basis point rate cut by the Federal Reserve within the year, which may lead to a weaker U.S. dollar in the near term. This scenario could create liquidity-driven recovery opportunities for gold prices. Additionally, U.S. equities might benefit from improved risk appetite, while U.S. Treasury yields may lack sufficient downward momentum due to economic fundamentals.#PreciousMetals #USInflation #FedRateCut #GoldPrices #CITICSecurities #OilPrices #CoreInflation #CPI #USDollar #USEquities #USTreasuryYields
🚀 PRECIOUS METALS | Global Central Bank Gold Purchases Show Resilience, Citic Securities Reports
#PreciousMetals #Gold #CentralBank #GoldPurchases #SafeAsset #ReserveDiversification #EmergingMarkets #GoldPrice #Investment #FinancialMarkets
Citic Securities has released a report indicating that the global trend of central banks purchasing gold remains structurally resilient. According to Jin10, the market may be overestimating the driving forces and impact mechanisms behind this trend. The report outlines several key points:
1) The proportion of non-standard channels and domestic storage in gold purchases is rising, reflecting the strengthened attribute of gold as a 'sovereign safe asset.'
2) The current wave of gold buying goes beyond conventional reserve management and should not be directly equated with de-dollarization. The primary logic for central banks holding gold remains crisis hedging and reserve diversification.
3) Recent disturbances, such as temporary reductions by central banks in Turkey and Russia due to fiscal pressures, are tactical and do not alter the global net buying pattern.
4) Central bank gold purchases are a long-term force elevating the gold price center, but their behavior of buying on dips means they play more of a supporting role. Variables like real interest rates have a more significant impact on gold prices.
5) The gap in gold reserve proportions between emerging market central banks and developed countries is substantial, indicating that the current cycle of central bank gold purchases is far from over. Citic Securities is optimistic about medium to long-term allocation opportunities but advises monitoring signals of weakened correlation between gold and risk assets in the short term as a key entry point for buying on dips.#PreciousMetals #Gold #CentralBank #GoldPurchases #SafeAsset #ReserveDiversification #EmergingMarkets #GoldPrice #Investment #FinancialMarkets

🚀 Bitcoin Faces Liquidity Challenges Amid Economic Indicators
#Bitcoin #LiquidityChallenges #EconomicIndicators #PCE #CPI #ConsumerSpending #USEconomy #LEI #RealYields #MonetaryPolicy #EnergyShock #BTC
Bitcoin may face liquidity challenges, according to Delphi Digital's analysis. According to PANews, February's PCE data indicated a weakening in U.S. consumer spending even before the impact of the Iran conflict. Income levels have contracted, and real spending has shown almost no growth. Subsequently, March's CPI recorded a 3.3% increase, with energy accounting for three-quarters of the rise. The U.S. Leading Economic Index (LEI) is declining, typically leading real yields by about six months. The last occurrence of such a scenario was in 2022, when tight monetary policy coincided with an energy shock, resulting in Bitcoin's correlation with real yields turning deeply negative.#Bitcoin #LiquidityChallenges #EconomicIndicators #PCE #CPI #ConsumerSpending #USEconomy #LEI #RealYields #MonetaryPolicy #EnergyShock #BTC

🚀 Ethereum Layer 2 Network Scroll Faces Overcharging Issue
#Ethereum #Layer2 #Scroll #Overcharging #GasFees #Blockchain #DeFi #TVL #CryptoNews #TransactionFees #ETH #SCR
Ethereum Layer 2 network Scroll has reportedly overcharged users by more than $50,000 in transaction fees over approximately four days. According to ChainCatcher, this occurred after the Scroll team manually increased two rate multipliers in their gas price oracle six times within six days, each time raising them by 2 to 10 times. This adjustment cumulatively increased the L1 data cost parameter to 1,280 times its original benchmark.
Approximately 139,000 transactions were affected, with the total cost originally estimated at around $280, but users were charged over $50,000. The majority of these transactions were automated by bots. L2BEAT clarified that the overcharging was not due to a sequencer issue but resulted from multiplier adjustments executed through a multi-signature wallet by the team. This incident has raised questions about whether Scroll previously subsidized users with below-cost rates to maintain activity.
Data from DeFiLlama indicates that Scroll's total value locked (TVL) currently stands at $24 million, a significant decline of 96% from its peak of $585 million in October 2024. As of the time of reporting, Scroll has not publicly responded to the issue.#Ethereum #Layer2 #Scroll #Overcharging #GasFees #Blockchain #DeFi #TVL #CryptoNews #TransactionFees #ETH #SCR

Aave Pro targets advanced users, while Horizon expands support for real-world assets (RWA). Stani highlighted the goal of growing Aave from a $40 billion protocol to over $1 trillion, positioning it as the foundational credit and repo market for the entire $400 trillion traditional financial asset sector.#Aave #Stani #AAVEtoken #DAO #AavePro #AaveApp #Horizon #RWA #fintech #cryptomarket #financialecosystem #tokenomics #blockchain #crypto #DeFi

🚀 Barclays Analysts: Asian Central Banks Likely to Maintain Monetary Policy Amid Middle East Conflict
#Barclays #AsianCentralBanks #MonetaryPolicy #MiddleEastConflict #Singapore #Indonesia #Thailand #Philippines #InterestRates #BankIndonesia #USdollar #Rupiah #RateCut
On April 13, Barclays Bank's fixed income, foreign exchange, and commodities research team released a report suggesting that Asian central banks may keep their monetary policies unchanged in the short term due to ongoing Middle East conflicts. According to Jin10, the analysts noted that the Monetary Authority of Singapore is likely to maintain its current policy this week, expressing concerns over the risks of extreme negative growth rather than inflation. Meanwhile, Barclays believes that unless the U.S. dollar significantly depreciates against the Indonesian rupiah before the upcoming Bank Indonesia meeting, the Indonesian central bank is unlikely to quickly resume its rate-cutting cycle. Additionally, the central banks of Thailand and the Philippines, which are also holding meetings this month, are expected to remain on hold.#Barclays #AsianCentralBanks #MonetaryPolicy #MiddleEastConflict #Singapore #Indonesia #Thailand #Philippines #InterestRates #BankIndonesia #USdollar #Rupiah #RateCut
