BlockBeats News, April 11th, Trump posted on his Truth platform stating, "Lots of empty oil tankers, some of the largest in the world, are en route to the United States right now carrying the world's highest quality, most 'sweet' crude oil (and natural gas!). Our oil reserves exceed the total of the second and third largest oil-producing countries combined—and it's even higher quality. We look forward to your visit. Act fast!"

BlockBeats reported on April 11 that open interest (OI) in Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME) Bitcoin futures has dropped to $8.41 billion, marking the lowest level in 14 months. According to Glassnode analysts, this trend is mainly driven by the unwinding of basis trades. Previously, this strategy established long positions through spot ETFs and hedged with short futures to earn the spread, but the annualized yield has recently declined from 15%-20% to around 5%, leading institutions to take profits. In addition, the daily trading volume of CME Bitcoin futures has decreased to below $3 billion. Analysts believe that as institutional demand shifts towards directly holding spot assets, leverage in the futures market is decreasing significantly.
