Scammers Posing as Iranian Authorities Extort Cryptocurrency 'Clearance Fees' from Ships Near the Strait of Hormuz

April 21 — Greek maritime risk firm MARISKS reports unidentified scammers are posing as Iranian authorities to send fraudulent messages to shipping firms stranded in the western Strait of Hormuz. They’re demanding payment in Bitcoin or USDT for a purported "customs clearance fee" to secure safe passage for the vessels through the strait. The firm noted at least one vessel was fired upon by Iranian ships on April 18 as it attempted to exit the strait—possibly falling prey to such a scam. Earlier reports indicated Iran proposed charging transit fees for vessels passing through the strait during ceasefire negotiations, with fees up to $2 million per oil tanker and crypto payments permitted. Meanwhile, the U.S. has maintained its blockade of Iranian ports, while Iran has alternately lifted and reinstated its own strait blockades. Currently, the strait is blocked, stranding hundreds of vessels and roughly 20,000 crew members. The U.S.-Iran temporary ceasefire agreement expires Apri

Infini Founder Christian: Stablecoins are Essentially a "USD Replacement Tool," with Core Demand Coming from Emerging Markets

On April 21st, during the “Decoding Web 4.0: When AI Agents Take Over On-Chain Authority” roundtable, Infini founder Christian discussed the connection between stablecoins and AI agents. He noted stablecoins have no overly complex underlying logic—their core rests on two pillars: First, they serve as a U.S. dollar substitute, providing a universal currency for global users to settle transactions. Second, they emerged and gained widespread use in regions with underdeveloped financial infrastructure. As such, stablecoin demand stems more from emerging markets than developed countries with robust traditional financial systems. On the practical side, Christian highlighted stablecoins’ biggest value lies in overhauling payment and settlement efficiency. Traditional banking transactions cost $30–$50 per transfer and require a multi-week onboarding process, but current on-chain transactions now cost just a few dollars—making micropayments and high-frequency settlements feasible.

Meme Coin MAGA Nears $10 Million Market Cap, Surges 350% in 24 Hours

April 21st — Per GMGN monitoring data, Solana-based meme coin MAGA (Make Aliens Great Again) has surged again today, hitting a new all-time high with a market cap of $9.96 million. It is currently trading at roughly $9.1 million in market cap, marking a 350% jump over the past 24 hours, with a trading volume of about $2.6 million. Since April 17th, when former U.S. President Trump publicly announced his intent to release government files related to UFOs, UAPs (Unidentified Aerial Phenomena), and potential alien life, the associated narrative has gained momentum. During this period, MAGA’s market cap has skyrocketed from under $50,000. BlockBeats advises users that meme coins are highly volatile, primarily driven by market sentiment and hype, with no inherent value or practical use case. Investors should be mindful of the associated risks.

Galaxy Analyst Warns "CLARITY Act" Faces Multiple Hurdles, Probability of Passing Before Midterm Elections Around 50%

On April 21, Galaxy Digital’s Head of Research Alex Thorn warned the U.S.’s key cryptocurrency bill—the CLARITY Act—has hit a make-or-break moment. Delaying deliberations until mid-May would send its 2026 passage odds plummeting. Right now, the chance the bill becomes law this year is pegged at roughly 50% or less. Data from Polymarket also shows its passage probability has fallen from 82% in February to 47%. Thorn noted the Senate’s calendar is currently packed with issues including Iran military authorization, Department of Homeland Security funding, and presidential nominations—leaving little room for the CLARITY Act. If Democrats retake the House after November’s midterms, legislative progress on the bill could stall. While the House passed the bill last July with a bipartisan 294-134 vote, Senate negotiations are far more complex, with several key hurdles: - A disagreement over stablecoin rewards was the main reason deliberations were delayed back in January. - A draft p
