Bitcoin Retreats From $78,000 as Iran Shuts the Strait of Hormuz Once Again

Bitcoin was unable to maintain its gains following Iran's closure of the Strait of Hormuz under 24 hours since declaring the strait was open.

Large Short Squeeze, Then a Retreat
* Rise on Friday: Bitcoin jumped to $78,000 after Iran said it reopened Hormuz fully, and Trump stated that Tehran agreed to stop its nuclear program indefinitely.
* Liquidations: Wiped out $762 million across 168,336 traders, $593 million for shorts in total. Bitcoin shorts wiped $381 million, ether shorts $167 million.
* Retreat on Saturday: Hormuz is shut again due to "management of the area by the forces," and bitcoin retreats back to $76,091, rising 0.8%.

Market Structure & Catalysts
* Negative Funding: BTC perpetuals were negative for weeks, where shorts paid longs. The opening of Hormuz changed the narrative.
* Oil Effect: WTI crude oil prices tumbled by almost 10% to $85.90 per barrel due to Hormuz opening. However, Iran quickly revoked its decision.
* Key Level: $76k-$78k has capped every previous rally from the Feb 5 crash. Traders monitor for a clear weekly close above $76k to sustain the breakout.

Other Major Coins
* Ether declined by 0.2% in 24 hours but rose 5.2% weekly.
* Solana dipped 1.3%, Dogecoin fell 2.1%.
* XRP is the best weekly performer, gaining 6.4%, followed by BNB with 4.6%, and Bitcoin with 4.5%.

Outlook
A continued consolidation above $76k until Monday will preserve the technical break out regardless of geopolitical swings. Losing that level will put Bitcoin back in its March range.

Trump vs Pope Leo XIV: Feud Over Iran War

President Trump and Pope Leo XIV are in an open dispute over the US-Israel war on Iran, the biggest US president-pope rift in modern history.

Trump’s Attacks
* Called Leo “WEAK on Crime, and terrible for Foreign Policy” on Truth Social.
* Claimed Leo supports Iran having nukes, despite no such statement from the pope.
* Said “I don't want a Pope who criticizes the President” and that Leo wasn’t on anyone’s list pre-conclave.
* Posted, then deleted, an AI image of himself in a Christ-like pose, saying he thought it showed him as a doctor.
* Claimed “Iran has killed at least 42,000 innocent, completely unarmed, protesters in the last two months.”

Pope Leo’s Response
From his plane to Algeria: “I do not fear anything from the Trump administration nor am I afraid to speak loud and clear on the Gospel message.”
* Called Trump’s pre-strike threats against Iranian civilization “truly unacceptable” under international law.
* Palm Sunday: “Jesus Christ is the King of Peace, who rejects war; no one can claim him in justification of war.”
* Urges Americans to contact Congress, framing the clash as strong figures “devastating the world.”

Global Fallout
* Italy’s PM Giorgia Meloni called Trump’s remarks unacceptable, saying it’s “natural and right” for the pope to seek peace.
* Analyst Elise Ann Allen says Trump feels threatened by Leo’s rising stature, noting moderate Catholics helped him win.
* Tensions land ahead of the April 22 Iran ceasefire expiry.

Political Stakes
Trump is juggling Iran nuclear talks, crypto law, and midterms where Catholic voters are key.

Ethereum “Whales” Have $2,400 Breakeven Ceiling

The price of Ethereum ranges between $2,350–$2,351 following two significant upward days with gains of 4.76% and 6.32%. However, the current distribution among whale holdings near their cost basis is limiting price action to an unbreakable ceiling level for bulls.

Why Does $2,400 Make a Difference?
* Ethereum “Whale” Cost Basis: The most significant groups have the following average cost levels ranging from $2,324 to $2,436. Therefore, breakevens are close.
* Technical Resistance Level: It coincides with 100-day EMA, and all attempts are rebuffed at this critical level.
* Liquidations: There were about $111.6M of liquidations within 48 hours of the trade, out of which $70.8M occurred among longs.
Bullish Factors
* ETF Flowing: The US spot ETH ETF funds have received net inflows of $67.8M Wednesday. They have had inflows for five consecutive

Watch These Levels
* Breakout: A breakout above $2,400 is needed, with volume above $2,500 indicating continuation
* Support: First support is at $2,200, failure to hold below $2,200 triggers downside momentum
* Verdict: The next 72 hours will determine whether this is a base building or fakeout scenario

Pre-Sale Watch: LiquidChain
ETH price can reach $3,000, which is 27% from current levels, attracting traders with asymmetric returns to invest in early infrastructure projects.

* Project: L3 Infrastructure that combines Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Solana liquidity into a single execution layer
* Features: Single-step Execution, Verifiable Settlements, and Deploy Once Architecture
* Stats: Raised $675,934 at $0.0145. It is in its

Circle CEO: China Ready to Launch Yuan-Stablecoin Within 3-5 Years

Jeremy Allaire, Circle's CEO, informed Reuters while visiting Hong Kong, that it is a “huge opportunity” for a stablecoin tied to the yuan, saying that China can launch such a currency in 3 to 5 years as cryptocurrencies become part of global commerce.

Shift in Policies Evident
* Reuters Report: In August 2025, Reuters reported that China was exploring the possibility of launching a yuan-based stablecoin to facilitate international use of RMB
* From Ban to Building: China had banned crypto transactions and mining operations in 2021. Now considering stablecoins as cross-border payment systems
* Allaire's Standpoint: He had been suggesting since 2023 that stablecoins can surpass CBDCs in promoting international RMB use

Convertibility Challenge
To have a successful yuan stablecoin, the country would have to be able to fully convert its currency into other currencies with no strict capital control.
* Present Situation: Capital controls are key to Chinese economic strategy
* CNH vs CNY: The offshore version works within the framework of the capital controls while the onshore does not
* Professional Opinion: In case of lacking convertibility, the stable coin cannot exist

Stablecoin Market Environment
* Global Stablecoin Market: About $315B at present
* Dominance: Stablecoins are dominated by the dollar-tethered tokens such as Tether and USDC
* Main Point: Is China going for the work-around option of stablecoins or the commitment?

Bullish Bitcoin Soars to $125K As Funding Rates Go Extremely Negative

Bitcoin bulls have gone on the rampage with funding rates turning extremely negative as Bitcoin prepares for a major rebound.

Key Data Points
* Price: BTC/USD around $74,700, gaining 3.5% week-over-week and down 0.4% day-over-day.
* Funding Rate: 7-day MA slumped to roughly -0.005%, which was last seen when BTC bottomed out due to the FTX collapse in late 2022. Negative funding rates indicate shorts are paying longs.
* Target: ZeroStack CEO Daniel Reis-Faria says BTC can hit $125,000 within 30-60 days if shorts cover their positions.

Why Funding Rates Are Important:
Funding rates balance perpetual futures with spot markets. The extremely negative funding rates indicate there are massive shorts in the market. In history, extreme negative funding rates have been associated with local bottoming events in March 2020, mid-2021, late 2022, August 2024, and April 2025.

Potential Problem: Underwater Holdings
Holders who purchased within the range of $75,000-$95,000 in 2025 are all underwater. A move to those figures could prompt a sell-off by the “wall of worrying holders” hoping to break even. Getting up to $125K entails buying the supply without capitulation.

Coming Catalysts
* April 22: Deadline for Iran ceasefire. An extension removes geopolitics; a failure sees $BTC fall to the $68,000 level.
* April 28-29: FOMC meeting. Positive talk by Powell could see an increase in $BTC .
* Early May: Possible committee meeting for the passing of the CLARITY Act.
