It's official:
Crypto has now erased more than HALF of its value in just 8 months.
On October 6th, 2025, the total market cap of crypto hit a record $4.3 trillion.
Today, 261 days later, crypto is worth just $2.0 trillion, marking a -54% decline in value.
This means crypto markets have erased an average of -$8.8 billion PER DAY for 261 days straight.
Crypto is in desperate need of a new narrative.
We are now facing the biggest global energy crisis in history:
Total oil product exports from the Middle East plunged -63% in March, or -4.8 million barrels per day, to ~2.8 million barrels per day.
Of the remaining ~2.8 million barrels per day still being exported, ~1.1 million barrels per day, or 39%, is flowing through Saudi Arabia's Red Sea ports, bypassing the shut Strait of Hormuz.
Jet fuel was hit the hardest, with exports plunging -85%, triggering flight cancellations and fuel shortages across Asia-Pacific.
At the same time, LPG and naphtha exports dropped by -1.0 million barrels per day.
Diesel, gasoline, and fuel oil exports also fell sharply, with declines ranging from -60% to -70%.
The Strait of Hormuz crisis is in full-swing.
Two trades on the day- got long at opening and cut for a loss. Flipped to the short side- up 10k and got greedy. Close to break even on the day. Red day/- TOS delivered my cash (8,044) from yesterdays trade.
