KBC has introduced regulated Bitcoin and Ethereum trading for retail investors via its Bolero brokerage platform earlier this year. According to NS3.AI, this move aligns with the Markets in Crypto-Assets (MiCA) regulation, which established a unified framework for crypto services across the European Union.

The ongoing disruptions in the Hormuz Strait have not yet led to a collapse in oil demand, as wealthy nations are utilizing reserves and paying high prices to secure supply. According to Odaily, traders are now warning of an imminent significant reduction in demand. They indicate that the longer the Hormuz Strait remains closed, the more consumption will need to be adjusted downward to align with a supply decrease of at least 10%. Achieving this will require reduced purchasing, either due to unaffordable prices or through government intervention to curb consumption. Saad Rahim, Chief Economist at Trafigura Group, noted that demand destruction is occurring in less visible pricing centers. This reduction is already underway, but if the situation persists, the scale of demand reduction will only increase. The market is at a critical turning point.

According to the announcement from Binance, the exchange will implement changes to the tick size of several USDⓈ-M Perpetual Futures Contracts to enhance market liquidity and improve trading experiences. These adjustments are scheduled to occur on specific dates and times, affecting various trading pairs. The tick size, which represents the minimum change in unit price, will be modified for the following contracts: RAVEUSDT and TRADOORUSDT on 2026-04-27 at 06:30 (UTC) and 06:40 (UTC) respectively, 1000SATSUSDT and DOGSUSDT on 2026-04-27 at 06:40 (UTC) and 06:50 (UTC), and CRVUSDT, GALAUSDT, CTSIUSDT, and ICXUSDT on 2026-04-29 at 06:30 (UTC), 06:40 (UTC), 06:50 (UTC), and 07:00 (UTC) respectively. The adjustments will not impact the overall trading operations of these contracts, except for the specified USDⓈ-M Perpetual Futures Contracts. During the adjustment period, trading functions for the affected contracts will be temporarily suspended. For instance, the USDⓈ-M 1000SATSUSDT Perpetual Futures Contract will be unavailable from 2026-04-27 06:40 (UTC) to 06:41 (UTC), and similar suspensions will occur for DOGSUSDT, CRVUSDT, GALAUSDT, CTSIUSDT, and ICXUSDT at their respective times. Users will be unable to place new orders or modify existing ones during these brief suspensions. The status of these contracts will change from “TRADING” to “PENDING_TRADING.” API users are advised to check the latest status and tick size changes via the GET /fapi/v1/exchangeInfo endpoint. The tick size update will not affect existing orders, as they will continue to be matched with the original tick size. Traders are encouraged to review the Trading Parameters and adjust their strategies accordingly to mitigate any potential impact.

霍尔木兹海峡的石油冲击尚未导致需求崩盘，因为富裕国家正动用库存并高价确保供应。但交易商如今发出警告：一次严峻的需求缩减即将来临。交易商表示，霍尔木兹海峡关闭的时间越长，消费就越需要向下调整，以求能与至少下降 10%的供应相匹配。而要实现这一点，人们将不得不减少购买，要么通过承担不起的价格，要么通过政府的强制干预来压低消费。托克集团首席经济学家萨阿德·拉希姆表示，需求破坏正在那些非显性的定价中心发生。这种缩减已经在发生，但如果这种情况持续下去，需求的缩减规模只会越来越大。我们正处于一个关键的转折点。(金十)
