【September 9 Late-Night Recap｜Oil Prices Break $100, $BTC Starts Tracking Gold】
The most surreal moment tonight: Brent crude oil, for the first time since July, broke above $100. U.S. stocks opened lower, and the 10-year Treasury yield rose above 4.81%, yet $BTC surged against the trend to $79,700.
The logic is pretty clear—escalation in the U.S.-Iran conflict: over the course of one night, the U.S. military destroyed five Iranian oil tankers, while Iran fired about 20 missiles at U.S. military bases in Jordan. Commercial traffic through the Strait of Hormuz is only about 5% of pre-war levels. In the typical “stagflation trade,” crypto assets are decoupling from U.S. stocks and instead anchoring to gold: data from the World Gold Council shows global gold ETFs pulled in $18 billion in August, marking the second-largest monthly inflow on record. $BTC is being traded by funds as “digital gold.”
Two other points worth noting: ① Binance launched a new token, $BullNiu (NIULAI, seed tag); ② Canary launched the U.S.’s first spot staked TRX ETF (TRXS). $TRX ’s market cap is already ranked 8th in the overall market.
Geopolitical risk is far from over; volatility is both opportunity and risk—position management comes first. NFA | DYOR
