- The agreement aims to extend the ceasefire for an additional 60 days and reopen the Strait of Hormuz.
- Currently, the naval blockade affects about 20% of global oil and liquefied natural gas supplies.
- Bitcoin was trading at $64,491, reflecting a rise of approximately 1.5% in the last day amid market speculation.
- Spot Bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs) reported net outflows of $315.84 million for the week ending Friday.
