Gate Research: Geopolitical Conflicts Drive Up Oil Prices and Interest Rate Pressures, Triggering a Broad Pullback in Major Cryptocurrencies
Gate Research Daily Report: Amid rising oil prices, higher bond yields, and mounting pressure on risk assets, BTC retreated toward the lower end of its recent trading range. As macro risk aversion intensified and major crypto assets underwent broad-based deleveraging, ETH posted a steeper decline than BTC. UAI, MARSCOIN, and ACE rose 51.05%, 40.45%, and 26.95%, respectively, mainly driven by short-term trading activity and sector rotation across AI, meme, and blockchain gaming narratives. Twenty-one financial institutions are preparing to establish a stablecoin company, with plans to initially launch a U.S. dollar-denominated product. The U.S. is considering updates to transfer agent rules to address risks associated with on-chain securities and smart contracts. Ontology suspended its mainnet following a security incident and is proceeding with a network upgrade and asset verification.
