Telegram's in-app crypto wallet has launched self-custodial vaults, enabling users to earn yields on Bitcoin, Ether, and USDt directly within the messaging platform. Concurrently, escalating US-Iran tensions are bolstering safe-haven demand for gold, which is putting pressure on Bitcoin and equities.

Despite these macroeconomic headwinds, Bitcoin traders are projecting an $80,000 target, driven by renewed spot Bitcoin ETF inflows, with signs pointing to a potential rebound to the $75,000-$80,000 range. On the regulatory front, Indiana lawmakers have passed HB 1042, a significant crypto rights bill that prohibits discriminatory taxes and paves the way for cryptocurrency options in retirement accounts, now awaiting the Governor's approval.
