🔥 Iran has agreed never to close the Strait, remove the mines
The special thing is that according to Trump, after the Hormuz Strait is resolved. NATO called Trump to ask if they needed help? Trump said to get lost, they just want to fill their ships with oil. Useless bunch, paper tigers
Bitcoin is about GAP CME ~3000 more in price. So is the uptrend not there, folks?
🔥Iran claims no intention to enter negotiations with the US
Even though the US is sending a special envoy to Pakistan to participate in the second round of talks about Iran.
However, Tehran believes that the demands from the US are still excessive, and their stance on not participating in a new round of negotiations hasn't changed.
At the same time, they deny having proposed direct dialogue with Washington.
This time the Market seems to be unresponsive to the news flow from Iran 🥲
🔥Summary of Key Points from Powell's Final Press Conference
Jerome Powell confirmed this is his last press conference as Fed Chair and congratulated Kevin Warsh.
However, Powell will remain at the Fed as a Governor after May 15. The reason is that the criminal investigation related to him is still ongoing, and he wants to protect the Fed's independence from political pressure from President Trump.
Regarding the economy:
🖤Powell stated that short-term inflation expectations are rising, and high energy prices may continue to push inflation up. The Fed forecasts PCE for March 2026 at 3.5%.
🖤The Middle East poses a significant risk to economic outlook. If a rate hike is necessary, the Fed will signal ahead of time before taking action.
Notably, Powell refuted claims that the Fed has lost credibility and stated that the market remains in high territory, with long-term inflation expectations still targeting 2%.
🔥It's not about the US-Iran conflict, the whole world will be focused on the FED tomorrow morning!
At 1 AM tomorrow, it's not just another ordinary FOMC meeting on interest rates, but it could very well be Jerome Powell's final press conference as the Fed Chair.
According to FED Watch experts, interest rates are expected to remain unchanged for the third consecutive time at 3.5%.
Even though the interest rate outcome seems pretty set in stone, the real spotlight will be on Jerome Powell's attitude and words at 1:30 AM tomorrow.
In the last 7 instances following Chairman Powell's speeches, the short-term result has always been "TOTAL CRASH".
👉 The question now is whether "This time will be different" or "Nothing will change at all"?
ZachXBT just dropped a bomb on Worldcoin by Sam Altman, straight up saying that $WLD is a scam project overvalued like those old SBF/FTX plays.
🖤Worldcoin once rolled into low-income countries, grabbing users' biometric data. But in the end, a black market popped up for buying and selling verified accounts.
🖤The supply of $WLD keeps getting printed, while insiders keep OTC trading tokens they're holding at lower and lower prices.
This coin is probably one of the most frustrating for our Vietnamese crew 😁

PRESIDENT TRUMP SENDS SPECIAL ENVOY TO PAKISTAN TO DISCUSS IRAN US President Donald Trump has dispatched Special Envoy Steve Witkoff and his son-in-law Jared Kushner to Pakistan for peace talks with Iran on April 25. "Iran is looking to negotiate," White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt stated, adding that the US president is "always ready to give diplomacy a shot," and that Vice President JD Vance is "set to go" if the talks yield positive results. Meanwhile, Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman Esmail Baqaei mentioned that he and Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi arrived in Islamabad on the evening of April 24, and Araghchi only plans to meet with "senior officials of Pakistan" to "discuss bilateral issues" and regional developments. "No meetings are scheduled between Iran and the US. Iran's viewpoints will be communicated to Pakistan,” Baqaei said. Prior to this statement from Iran, US Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth noted that Tehran has a chance to secure a "good deal," emphasizing that "all they need to do is genuinely and verifiably abandon nuclear weapons." At a press conference on April 24, Hegseth also warned that Washington's continued blockade of the Strait of Hormuz - a crucial oil transport route - is "increasing and spreading globally." Both Trump and Hegseth affirmed that the US does not feel pressured to end the war with Iran. However, the news about the resumption of talks highlights a stark gap between tough rhetoric and behind-the-scenes calculations.
