On April 27, Vishnu Varathan from Mizuho Securities commented that the oil price shock caused by the Middle East conflict could disrupt demand and exacerbate existing inflation risks. According to Jin10, the Bank of Japan is expected to maintain its current policy stance this week. The central bank is in a difficult position, as it is unclear which risk will dominate and what measures should be taken in response. The high inflation and significant depreciation pressure on the yen, which existed before the Middle East crisis, limit the Bank of Japan's ability to preemptively ease policy to counter potential growth shocks. At the same time, the bank cannot raise interest rates too quickly or significantly, as this could undermine the prospects for achieving sustainable and healthy reflation.

Curve's team has introduced a proposal on their governance forum to address approximately $700,000 in bad debt from the CRV-long LlamaLend market. According to ChainCatcher, the proposed recovery mechanism leverages the option characteristics of CRV-long treasury assets. The value of these assets increases with a rise in CRV prices, while a price drop does not further diminish their value. The proposal suggests creating a Curve stable pool with a low amplification factor (A=2) and a high exchange fee (1%), concentrating the liquidity of treasury tokens around a 71% solvency level. Arbitrageurs can profit by purchasing treasury tokens through flash loans and partially liquidating them. Curve DAO is invited to approve incentives for this pool, with management fees collected in the form of treasury tokens retained in the fund. If successful, this mechanism could serve as a reference solution for similar situations in the future.
