Economists: Despite surging oil prices, the Bank of England is expected to keep interest rates unchanged.

1 hours ago

Economists forecast that against the backdrop of renewed Middle East conflict and another surge in energy prices, the Bank of England will adopt a hawkish stance at this week’s meeting while keeping interest rates unchanged. Since the Monetary Policy Committee (MPC)’s last meeting in June, the collapse of the US-Iran ceasefire has pushed global oil prices back to near $100 per barrel, with European natural gas prices surging to their highest level since the start of the conflict. Oil prices could rise further if shipping lanes in the Gulf remain disrupted. The UK economy performed better than the MPC’s expectations in the early stage of the conflict, with GDP growing by 0.7% in the three months to May. There are few signs so far that the energy shock will trigger more persistent price pressures. The Consumer Price Index (CPI) has undershot expectations for three consecutive months, falling to 2.6% in June. Wage growth, a key source of inflationary pressure, has slowed, while food price increases have also eased. Economists say this will enable the MPC to hold interest rates at 3.75% at its Thursday meeting, while signaling it is prepared to tighten policy if energy prices rise sharply further or if one-off price shocks start to become more persistent.

Hyperliquid’s testnet has launched the ‘Stars’ feature, supporting whitelisted trading for HIP-3 DEX addresses.

Hyperliquid’s testnet recently rolled out a new feature dubbed "Stars". This feature introduces an optional transaction address whitelist mechanism for the HIP-3 DEX, enabling deployers to restrict opening or adding positions exclusively to whitelisted addresses. Currently, the testnet whitelist has a cap of 10,000 addresses; unauthorized addresses can still deposit funds into accounts and submit only position reduction orders to close or cut existing positions. Community analysts believe this feature is set to expand the HIP-3 DEX’s use cases. For instance, tokenized stocks, real-world assets (RWAs), institutional indices, and other regulated products can use the address whitelist to open trading only to users who have completed KYC or meet eligibility requirements. New markets can also be tested first with market makers, partners, or community members, reducing risks of spam trading, wash trading, or malicious manipulation in early market stages. The design allowing non-whitelisted users to continue reducing positions also prevents users from being unable to exit holdings due to permission limits. Notably, the "Stars" feature does not change Hyperliquid’s base layer permissionless nature—it adds an optional access control function that developers can enable or disable as needed. This means scenarios like DAOs, trading clubs, private funds, or partner-exclusive markets can build closed trading markets with access mechanisms while retaining Hyperliquid’s advantages in matching engines and settlement layers. The feature remains in the testnet phase, and the official has not announced its specific use cases. Future applications will need to be confirmed after the mainnet launch and further developer documentation is released.

A Bitcoin-focused whale opened a $3.53 million short position in CXMT, marking its first cross-asset position move.

According to Hyperinsight monitoring, whale address 0x004e—who had traded only Bitcoin (BTC) for over three months—has for the first time stepped outside the crypto space to target Changxin Technology (CXMT). The whale began building CXMT short positions in batches at noon; as of press time, it holds 500,000 CXMT short contracts with 2x isolated margin, with a position value of roughly $3.533 million and an average entry price of $7.47. As CXMT has fallen to $7.0669, the short position has generated an unrealized profit of about $204,900, a return of ~10.96%; its liquidation price stands at $13.58, and the address has allocated ~$3.599 million in margin to the isolated position, with no outstanding pending orders currently. Data shows CXMT is trading at $7.06 on Hyperliquid, with a 24-hour gain of 15.7%; converted at a USD/CNY exchange rate of 6.7939, this equals approximately 48.01 yuan. Historical trading records show the whale traded only BTC over the past three months, marking its first recent entry into stock futures. It still holds a 40x leveraged BTC short position worth $6.6 million.
