## Resource

Bitcoin surges past $78K on Trump’s indefinite Iran ceasefire extension and massive institutional demand, with Strategy’s $2.54 billion BTC buy and nearly $1 billion in weekly ETF inflows providing strong tailwinds. Russia passes its crypto bill in first reading for foreign trade use, while New York sues Coinbase and Gemini over prediction markets. North Korea’s Lazarus Group has stolen over $500 million in April with new malware attacks, and Arbitrum froze $71 million from the Kelp DAO exploit. Ethereum logs its busiest quarter ever, and the industry ramps up $200 million in midterm spending—markets show renewed energy but remain sensitive to geopolitical and security developments.
