Over the past week, markets were primarily driven by the escalation of the US Iran conflict. WTI crude rose nearly 17% and returned above the $100 level, pushing US Treasury yields higher, with the 10 year reaching 4.44%, while the US dollar strengthened. The crypto market declined by more than 6% overall, and the VIX climbed to 31.

Over the past week, global markets entered a risk-off phase, driven by hawkish Fed expectations and escalating geopolitical tensions. Climbing US Treasury yields weighed on risk asset valuations. Gold and silver, after strong rallies, each saw corrections of more than 10%. The crypto market weakened in parallel, with BTC dropping below $70,000. Meanwhile, crude oil held firm amid expectations of potential supply shocks, and energy factors continued to disrupt the inflation outlook. On the capital front, both BTC and ETH ETFs recorded net outflows, reflecting a slowdown in short-term capital inflows. Nevertheless, total AUM remained at elevated levels, as long-term allocation capital has not exited the market. On-chain, DEX liquidity became increasingly concentrated in leading and highly efficient protocols, with Meteora’s rapid ascent reshaping trading dynamics. Marginal growth in stablecoin supply stemmed from protocol-based assets, and DeFi credit demand shifted primarily back to stablecoin arbitrage and

Since Ethereum transitioned from PoW to PoS, it introduced a burn mechanism through EIP-1559 to achieve deflationary goals. However, by 2025, its supply is still increasing, with an annual growth rate of 0.805%. Despite a significant amount of ETH being burned, the issuance still exceeds the amount burned. Influencing factors include network activity, transaction fees, technical upgrades, and market competition. The challenges Ethereum faces include the conflict between technical ideals and business realities, the decreasing appeal of the staking mechanism, and pressure from the regulatory environment. Future development will need to balance efficiency, fairness, and regulation.
