▌Trump warns Iran not to act rashly against the United States
Trump stated on social media: "The attacks that the U.S. and Iran suffered tonight are unrelated. If we are attacked by Iran in any form, the full strength and power of the U.S. armed forces will strike you at an unprecedented level. However, we can easily facilitate an agreement between Iran and Israel to end this conflict!!"
▌Germany, France, and the United Kingdom propose negotiations on Iran's nuclear program
German Foreign Minister Baerbock stated that Germany, France, and the UK are ready to hold talks with Iran about Tehran's nuclear program immediately to ease the situation in the Middle East. Baerbock, who is visiting the Middle East, said he is working to contribute to de-escalating the conflict between Israel and Iran, and noted that Tehran has not previously seized the opportunity for constructive negotiations. "I hope this is still possible," Baerbock said. "Germany, France, and the UK are ready. We propose that Iran engage in negotiations about its nuclear program immediately, and I hope this proposal will be accepted." "This is also a key prerequisite for achieving conflict resolution, namely that Iran does not pose a threat to the region, Israel, or Europe."

▌Glassnode: The upward trend of Bitcoin has not changed due to the significant growth in the previous two cycles
Glassnode stated on platform X that although the market value of Bitcoin has significantly increased compared to the previous two cycles, the development trend in the current cycle has not changed due to the rise in market value and continues to follow the growth trend of the previous two cycles. Data shows that from 2015 to 2018, Bitcoin's increase was 1076%, from 2018 to 2022 it was 1007%, and from 2022 to now it is 656%. This trend indicates that the growth in market demand is in sync with the mature development of Bitcoin, and it is also a sign that investors remain optimistic about Bitcoin.
▌Bitwise Asset Management: Young Investors are Setting 1 BTC as a New Wealth Goal
The price of BTC rebounded from a geopolitical-induced low of $104,480, eventually closing at $105,590, with a daily increase of 0.15%. Technical analysis shows that the $104,400-$104,500 range has formed effective support, and consolidation above $105,470 may indicate further upward potential. Jeff Park, portfolio manager at Bitwise Asset Management, pointed out that young investors are considering "holding a full 1 Bitcoin" as a new wealth goal in place of traditional real estate.
▌Consensys Founder: Only Recently Started Discussing ETH Frequently Due to Improved U.S. Regulatory Environment
Joseph Robin, the founder of Consensys and co-founder of Ethereum, responded to the community's claims that he frequently posts discussions out of pressure regarding ETH. He stated that the previously lower frequency of discussions about ETH was due to the former chair of the SEC, Gary Gensler, advising against public discussions because regulatory agencies were investigating Ethereum (mostly) and the decentralized ecosystem. Now, with the regulatory environment in the US improving, he feels freer to speak out and has always been very outspoken. He also hopes the community can express concerns towards Ethereum, Consensys, and decentralized protocols to collaboratively address issues.

▌Analyst: The flash crash of ZKJ and KOGE may be a long-planned harvesting action
According to on-chain data analyst Ai Yi (@ai_9684xtpa), the flash crash of ZKJ and KOGE on Sunday night may have been a premeditated harvesting operation. Three major addresses targeted the massive trading volume and liquidity of two tokens under the Binance Alpha background. Tonight, through the dual pressure of "large liquidity withdrawals + continuous selling," ZKJ and KOGE collapsed one after the other, with no one spared.

How does the 10-year U.S. Treasury yield affect cryptocurrency?
Cryptocurrency yields and stablecoins are part of the broader financial world, while the yield on 10-year government bonds influences investor behavior, subsequently affecting the cryptocurrency market. The US dollar is the world's reserve currency, and US Treasuries are a global safe haven; changes in the yield of 10-year US government bonds can trigger shocks worldwide. For cryptocurrency investors, this global influence sets the context. An increase in the yield of 10-year government bonds may indicate that cryptocurrency prices and yields will face a harsher market environment, especially in times of global market turmoil. Conversely, low yields often stimulate risk appetite, thereby boosting speculative assets such as cryptocurrencies.
