Illusion

📅 Wake Up to Web3: What Happened Overnight [2026-03-19] 1️⃣ Market Dynamics • Bitcoin trades near $68,200 amid Fed hawkish stance and risk-off flows into USD, down ~1.8% intraday.[1] • Ethereum pulls back to around $1,920, giving up earlier weekly gains.[1] • Brent crude surges past $110/barrel on escalating Middle East tensions; Citi analysts warn it could hit $130 in Q2 if Gulf risks worsen.[2] • U.S. stocks hit new 2026 lows, with Dow plunging over 760 points on inflation worries and Powell’s comments.[3] 2️⃣ Top Headlines • Federal Reserve holds rates steady at 3.50%–3.75% in an 11:1 vote; Governor Stephen Miran was the sole dissenter calling for a 25bps cut.[4] • Core PCE inflation forecast for 2026 raised from 2.4% to 2.7%; Powell stresses no rate cuts until clear progress, hinting at possibly just one cut this year.[5] • Qatar reports missile strikes on Ras Laffan Industrial City causing widespread damage, directly threatening regional energy security.[6] 3️⃣ Crypto & Industry Updates • BlackRock’s iShares Staked Ethereum Trust ETF (ETHB) continues strong inflows post-launch, underscoring institutional appetite for staked ETH.[7] • Mastercard’s acquisition of BVNK gains attention as a major step toward mainstream crypto payment integration.[8] • Trump administration temporarily waives the Jones Act to allow foreign vessels in U.S. domestic fuel transport, aiming to ease soaring oil prices.[9] My take In an environment shaped by geopolitical tensions, energy supply challenges, and significant policy developments, capital flows are increasingly directed toward assets that offer greater predictability. Structured financial instruments capable of locking in costs and establishing clear risk boundaries tend to demonstrate enhanced utility during such periods of uncertainty, enabling investors to make more deliberate and sustained decisions rather than reacting impulsively to daily headlines.

@TansuYegen Props to the people doing CPR on that Thai beach for nearly 30 mins—they didn’t just save a life, they gave a whole family their person back. Shame that back home, most folks would rather blame than step up and help. This hits different fr

A video just appeared of someone saving a life with CPR on a beach in Thailand, while back home people are worried about blame instead of action 🙏

@Adiofreak Bro really pulled the Pearl Harbor card to dodge the Iran bombing question? The shamelessness is actually unfathomable

Japanese Reporter: “why didn’t you tell us before you bombed Iran” Trump:”who knows better about surprises than Japan, why didn’t you tell us before you bombed Pearl Harbor” HOKY FUCK 😭😭😭

@FearedBuck Domestic violence and endangering a child are unforgivable

ABC has canceled The Bachelorette after their lead was seen in a leaked footage physically attacking her ex-boyfriend and throwing metal chairs at him while her child was present and reportedly the child was struck during the altercation.

Cute

@elonmusk Is a dislike button included in that?

Major update to the 𝕏 AI recommendation algorithm rolling out next week. This will be open sourced at the same time.

@TheFigen_ Gratitude directly improves our body, mind and spirit in the most genuine way.

Japanese actor Hiroyuki Sanada spoke about the contradictions of human nature: “Some people dream of having a swimming pool at home, while those who have one hardly ever use it. Those who have lost a loved one feel a profound sense of loss, while others often complain about their living relatives. Those without a partner long for one, while those who have one often don't appreciate it. The hungry would give anything for a meal, while the satiated complain about the taste of their food. Those without a car dream of owning one, while those who have a car are always looking for a better one.” The key to happiness is gratitude: truly seeing and appreciating what we already have, and understanding that somewhere, someone would give anything for what we take for granted.

@ShamsCharania This is awful news. A collapsed lung is such a serious condition, wishing him a full and speedy recovery.

Just in: Detroit Pistons star Cade Cunningham has been diagnosed with a collapsed lung and is expected to miss an extended period of time, sources tell ESPN.

@plasmarob It’s such a broken system. What was meant to support us has become one of life’s biggest frustrations.

Insurance companies are the ruin of civilization

@elonmusk This is absolutely shocking, the fraud must stop

Wow

@nickshirleyy This is absolutely shocking, the fraud must stop

🚨 Here is the full 40 minutes of my crew and I exposing California fraud, Minnesota was big but California is even bigger... We uncovered over $170,000,000 in fraud as these fraudsters live in luxury with no consequences. Like it and share it, the fraud must STOP. We ALL work way too hard and pay too much in taxes for this to be happening. These fraudsters have been able to defraud American taxpayers for years without any pushback from the public and politicians. It is time to EXPOSE IT ALL and end America's fraud crisis.
