#加密市场回升 📰 April 14, 2026 (Tuesday) Evening Cryptocurrency Market Major News Summary

The evening market sentiment is dominated by two main themes: first, the complex signals of "loose externally, tight internally" in the US-Iran situation; second, the intense "short squeeze" in the derivatives market, with astonishing liquidation data.

🟢 1. Geopolitical Developments: Mixed signals of bullish and bearish indicators, but "peace talks expectations" still support the market

Bullish signals:

· The US and Iran confirm they will hold a second round of negotiations: Both sides agree to continue talks, aiming to reach a longer-term ceasefire before the current ceasefire agreement announced on April 7 expires; the second round may be held in Islamabad on April 16.
· Trump claims Iran initiated contact: U.S. President Trump states that Tehran has proactively reached out to the U.S. government, seeking potential peace negotiations.
· NATO countries refuse to participate in blockade actions: Spain, the UK, Turkey, and other NATO members explicitly state they will not join U.S. efforts to blockade Iran’s maritime traffic, which could increase friction between the U.S. and NATO while reducing the risk of full-scale military conflict.
· Oil prices fall in response: As a direct reflection of risk appetite recovery, WTI crude futures dropped over 3% that day, approaching $96 per barrel; Brent crude briefly fell below $97 per barrel.

Bearish signals:

· U.S. military blockade order takes effect: The U.S. Central Command announces that from 10 p.m. Beijing time on April 13, all maritime traffic entering or leaving Iranian ports will be blocked; U.S. warships have begun intercepting vessels passing through the Strait of Hormuz.
· Commercial shipping through the Strait of Hormuz has halted: Monitoring data shows that since the blockade took effect, commercial shipping in the Strait of Hormuz has come to a standstill, impacting global shipping and energy security.
· Iran’s stance remains firm: Iranian Parliament Speaker Kalibaf emphasizes that Iran will not yield to any threats; the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps warns military vessels not to approach the Strait of Hormuz, which remains fully under Iran’s control.

Impact on cryptocurrencies: The market seems to favor pricing in "peace talks expectations" rather than "escalation of the blockade." Bitcoin price once surged to $74,901, hitting a nearly one-month high.

🔥 2. Market Dynamics: Short sellers suffer a "massacre," astonishing liquidation data

· Heavy losses for short sellers: Coinglass data shows that in the past 24 hours, total liquidations across the network reached $535 million, with about $434 million from short positions, accounting for over 80%. Liquidations of Bitcoin shorts alone reached $225 million, and Ethereum shorts about $119 million.
· Nearly 180k traders liquidated: Approximately 179k traders worldwide experienced liquidations. The largest liquidation involved a $12.4 million BTCUSDT short contract.
· Institutional funds continue to flow in: Since the Gulf crisis erupted, Bitcoin ETF products have attracted $2.3 billion in new funds, ending a five-week streak of outflows.

📊 3. Federal Reserve Movements: Inflation concerns suppress rate cut expectations

U.S. Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen urges the Federal Reserve to adopt a "wait-and-see" approach on rate cuts, citing that Middle East conflicts have driven up fuel costs, making inflation outlook more uncertain. The futures market has already priced in a delay of rate cuts, with expectations pushed back to December this year. This macro environment exerts downward pressure on Bitcoin.

📈 4. Technical Analysis: Approaching key resistance levels

Bitcoin, after reaching $74,901, faced resistance and pulled back, currently trading around $74,400. Initial support is at the 50-day EMA ($71,019), while key resistance is near the 100-day EMA ($75,309). The market’s next move depends on whether it can break through the $75,000–$75,300 resistance zone or tests the $71,000 support level.
