NFL official betting partner falls through; DraftKings and FanDuel contracts expired and were not renewed

In April 2023, the NFL first found itself without an official betting partner after its contracts with FanDuel, DraftKings, and Caesars Entertainment were not renewed.

U.S.-Iran Conflict Escalates: Spot Crude Oil Breaks $140—A Double Test of Inflation and Safe-Haven Demand for the Crypto Industry

XPL dumps after a surge and then instantly crashes by 40%; the top five insider addresses arbitrage $1.6 million

On April 3, the XPL token price saw extreme volatility within a short period, seemingly due to manual manipulation. Five addresses opened high-leverage long positions on Hyperliquid at the same time, and ultimately, after realizing profits of about $1.602 million, they quickly closed their positions. Afterwards, the price plunged, and the accumulated losses of the short positions liquidated by forced selling exceeded $32.99 million. The market showed an overbought warning, and there may be a risk of a pullback in the future.
