Trump's "Carrot and Stick" Approach to Iran: Increasing Troops in the Middle East While Signaling for Dialogue
January 30 — Amid high U.S.-Iran tensions, President Trump signaled Thursday he might be open to dialogue with Tehran — but the U.S. continues deploying military forces to the Middle East, further complicating the situation.
Trump said he “has a plan to engage in dialogue with Iran” but did not disclose the format, timeline, or U.S. negotiator. He also noted the U.S. has “multiple very powerful warships heading toward Iran” and added, “It would be best if they didn’t have to be used.”
U.S. officials said Trump is still weighing military action against Iran and has not made a final decision. Recent tensions stem from domestic protests in Iran and subsequent crackdowns. Sources noted the Trump administration invited top Israeli and Saudi defense and intelligence officials this week to discuss the Iran issue.
Defense Secretary Mark Esper said the U.S. military is prepared to carry out any presidential orders, reiterating Iran “should not pursue nuclear capability.” Trump previous

If Bitcoin breaks above $85,000, the mainstream CEX cumulative short liquidation pressure will reach 602 million.
**Crypto Quick Take**
As of January 30, Coinglass data shows:
- If Bitcoin rebounds above $85,000, cumulative short liquidation intensity across major centralized exchanges (CEXs) will hit $602 million.
- Conversely, if Bitcoin drops below $81,000, cumulative long liquidation intensity for major CEXs will reach $524 million.
**BlockBeats Note**
Liquidation charts do not show the exact number or value of contracts being liquidated. The bars instead reflect how significant each liquidation cluster is relative to adjacent clusters (i.e., "intensity").
In short, the chart indicates the impact of hitting a specific price level: a taller "liquidation bar" means prices will face a stronger reaction from a liquidity cascade.

ELON Meme Coin Early Holder Sees 600x Gain, Entered Position at $17k Market Cap
January 30 — Per GMGN monitoring, the second-largest holder of Solana ecosystem meme coin ELON (address starting with 8nxf…) is an early investor. When ELON’s market cap was just ~$17,600, this address invested roughly $593 to build its position. As prices rose, its total holding profit now stands at ~$200,000, delivering a 600x return on investment (ROI).
Previously, when ELON’s market cap hovered around $1.65 million, the address sold nearly half its holdings to lock in early profits. It still holds ~1.62% of the circulating supply and has not sold additional tokens since. The meme coin’s current market cap is reported at $11 million, with a price of ~$0.011.
BlockBeats notes that meme coin trading is highly volatile, heavily tied to market sentiment and speculative hype, and lacks real value or use cases. Investors should be aware of these risks.
