Iran hints at circumventing payments in yuan and bitcoin, signs of cracks in petrodollar system
The petrodollar system is being shaken by the fallout from the U.S.-Iran war, with signs of cracks in the dollar-based structure for global oil trade. War risk in the Gulf has raised concern about dollar shortages, and UAE officials have discussed possible financial backstops with the United States. Iran is reported to have imposed yuan-denominated passage fees in the Strait of Hormuz and has also signalled possible use of bitcoin-based fees.

Silver price rebounds on weaker dollar, market eyes $84
Silver has rebounded 33 percent over the past three weeks, but an analysis says a shift in trend depends on breaking above $84.29. Silver has risen 7.2 percent in the past week and trades around $79.50 an ounce. A weaker dollar and softer inflation expectations helped support the move, while options indicators suggest fewer bearish bets and elevated volatility. Failure to clear $84 could keep prices rangebound.

Only major coins rise as altcoin participation stays limited amid bitcoin rally
Bitcoin and ether rose sharply alongside a rebound in U.S. equities, but the broader market has yet to join the move. Bitcoin gained 5 percent and ether rose 9 percent over 24 hours, with continued demand from digital asset treasury firms and more bullish futures bets. Analysts cited $74,000 to $75,000 as a key level for further gains. Market breadth remained limited, with mixed altcoin performance.
