Copper: Tariff risk fuels rally – Commerzbank

Finance　　Copper: Tariff risk fuels rally – Commerzbank　　Commerzbanks Commodity Analyst Barbara Lambrecht highlights that Copper has surged to record levels on the London Metal Exchange, supported by structural demand from the energy transition and data centers. At the same time, the US is considering extending tariffs to refined Copper from 2027, encouraging pre-emptive stockpiling and tightening supply outside the US. Chinese production data due next week will be closely watched.　　Record prices and looming US tariffs　　“In the base metals markets, sentiment remains positive despite another significant rise in energy prices: The London Metal Exchange index even hit a new record high this week. A ton of copper cost more than USD 14,000.”　　“In addition to concerns about a shortage of copper ore, fears of an expansion of US tariffs on metal imports are likely also playing a role in the current copper price rally. The US Department of Commerce is expected to decide by the end of June whether to extend the existing tariffs to refined copper.”　　“The original proposal called for the introduction of a 15% tariff effective January 1, 2027. One year later, this was to be increased to 30%.”　　“In contrast, imports nearly doubled last year, likely due to stockpiling ahead of

Bitcoin Surges to $82K on Clarity Act Vote: Enough to Save the Rally?

Bitcoin　　Bitcoin Surges to $82K on Clarity Act Vote: Enough to Save the Rally？　　The Clarity Act passed the Senate Banking Committee on Thursday leading to a rapid and strong rally for the Bitcoin price. Can this rally save the day for Bitcoin, or was the resulting lower high an omen of a possible crash to come？　　$2,000 surge, but not enough　　Source: TradingView　　In Thursdays article on the $BTC price it was posited that: . This statement was made amidst the general negative tone of the article, and it was answered to perfection as the $BTC price surged around $2,000 briefly testing $82,000 on the Clarity Act news.　　Be that as it may, the surge to $82,000 was sold down fairly quickly once it got there, leaving a candle wick to the upside. It can also be observed that the top of the wick failed to make a higher high, and the price fell down below the trendline.　　As can be noted in the 4-hour chart above, the price is still above the major horizontal level and the top of the bear flag. However, with the Stochastic RSI indicators rolling over, leading to waning momentum, it may well be that the major level flips back to

JPMorgan Increases Bitcoin ETF Stake by 174% in Q1 2026

JPMorgan Chase made a bold move into Bitcoin ETFs during Q1 2026, increasing its stake in BlackRock‘s iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT) by 174%, according to its latest 13F filing. The bank boosted its holdings from 3 million shares in Q4 2025 to 8.3 million shares, representing an added value of $162 million. This brings JPMorgan’s total IBIT stake to $318.9 million as of March 31, 2026.　　This aggressive accumulation came during a challenging quarter for Bitcoin. The cryptocurrency dropped by over 22% in Q1, closing the period at $79,318, according to CoinGlass. Spot Bitcoin ETFs also saw net outflows, reflecting broader market caution. However, JPMorgans significant increase in holdings suggests growing institutional comfort with regulated Bitcoin exposure despite price volatility.　　Expanding Bitcoin ETF Bets　　JPMorgan wasnt just focused on IBIT. The bank also increased its positions in other prominent Bitcoin ETFs, including the Fidelity Wise Origin Bitcoin Fund (FBTC) and the Bitwise Bitcoin ETF (BITB). Its holdings in BITB surged by nearly 900%, while FBTC holdings grew by 450%. Combined, these additions reflect a broader commitment to diversifying Bitcoin ETF exposure.　　Interestingly, the bank dramatically increased its stake in the ProShares Bitcoin Strategy ETF (BITO)—a futures-based product—by over 3,000%.

Venom Foundation Introduces Protocol-Level Fee Burning to Reduce $VENOM Supply

Venom Foundation has announced a major protocol upgrade that introduces a fee-burning mechanism for the $VENOM token, a move designed to tie token supply more closely to actual network activity. Under the new system, 50 percent of qualifying network fees will be sent to an irreversible burn address and permanently removed from circulation.　　Unlike a buyback program, which depends on separate market activity and often sits outside the core protocol, Venoms burn mechanism is built directly into the network itself. That means every eligible transaction will automatically trigger the rule, with no manual intervention and no discretionary decision-making involved. Once tokens are burned, they cannot be recovered.　　The foundation says the design is intended to create a more transparent and usage-driven economic model. In practical terms, the more activity the network sees, the greater the amount of $VENOM that will be taken out of circulation. A slower period on the chain would naturally result in a smaller burn, while a busier period would accelerate the reduction in supply. Over time, that creates a feedback loop in which token economics reflect real network demand rather than only market sentiment or external speculation.　　Broader Technical Upgrade　　The upgrade also fits into Venoms existing technical architecture.

Irans Kharg Island oil shipments halt for first time since war began

Tech　　Irans Kharg Island oil shipments halt for first time since war began　　Irans main oil export terminal, Kharg Island, has gone dark. For the first time since regional conflict escalated, seaborne crude shipments from the facility have ground to a prolonged halt, with satellite imagery showing no tankers loading for multiple consecutive days.　　The stoppage isn‘t a technical glitch or a scheduling gap. It’s the result of an intensified US naval blockade that has now prevented Iran from successfully exporting crude oil by sea for 28 straight days.　　What Kharg Island means for Irans economy　　Here‘s the thing about Kharg Island: it handles nearly 90% of Iran’s oil exports. Its not just important infrastructure. It is the infrastructure, the single chokepoint through which almost all of Irans crude reaches the global market.　　Satellite images have confirmed what tracking data suggested: no oil tankers have been loading at the terminal for an extended stretch. Thats unprecedented in the context of the current war. Even during previous escalations, some level of export activity continued.　　US officials have reportedly identified Kharg as a critical “pressure point” in their strategy to cripple Iran‘s export capacity. The logic is straightforward. If you can’t ship oil out, storage tanks fill up. Once

Thorchain Exploited? Trading Paused Amid Risk of Enormous Attack

Tech　　Thorchain Exploited？ Trading Paused Amid Risk of Enormous Attack　　Cross-chain DeFi protocol THORChain has suspended trading, following what appears to be a significant multi-chain exploit that may have depleted over $10 million in cryptocurrency assets. Suspicious withdrawals involving Bitcoin, Ethereum, BNB Chain, and Base-linked assets have been reported by security researchers and on-chain investigators such as PeckShield.　　Early tracking data indicates that the attackers allegedly took about 36.75 BTC, or about $3 million, along with an additional $7 million in assets that were bridged across several chains. Both Bitcoin and Ethereum-compatible networks publicly known wallet addresses were linked to the stolen funds.　　Following the incident, THORChain stopped trading, probably to avoid further liquidity drains or cascading exploits across linked pools. Because THORChain serves as essential infrastructure for decentralized cross-chain swaps, disruptions may affect all of the ecosystems, wallets, aggregators, and liquidity suppliers.　　DeFi security is in trouble　　DeFi security is already experiencing hardship. Exploits, bridge attacks, governance breaches, and wallet-draining malware campaigns have plagued the industry in recent months. When a foundational liquidity layer fails, interconnected DeFi systems can quickly spread contagion, as demonstrated by recent attacks on major protocols.　　Bitcoin (BTC) Says Goodbye to $80,000, Dogecoin (DOGE) Spikes 50% Hinting at New Rally, Toncoin (TON)
