May 31 – U.S. President Donald Trump said in a Fox News interview aired on the evening of May 30 local time that the U.S. and Iran are close to reaching a "very good agreement," adding that a "better deal" should come together more quickly. However, Trump warned that if no such deal is reached, he will order the so-called "Department of War" – a reference to the U.S. Department of Defense – to step in. "If I don't get what I want, we will end it in another way," he stated. Trump also noted that a signed agreement would secure navigation through the Strait of Hormuz and prevent Iran from developing nuclear weapons, among other goals. When discussing his timeline for the Iran deal, he emphasized he is not in a rush. "If you're in a hurry, you won't be able to reach a good agreement," he said. Source: CCTV News.

May 31 — Amid rumors that Binance plans to launch genuine stock trading on June 1, Armani Ferrante, founder of crypto exchange Backpack, noted in a post that this move could reshape the entire brokerage landscape. Key points from Ferrante’s comments: 1. 24/7 price discovery for stock spot markets will become a reality. 2. A new generation of crypto-native brokerages will follow Binance into weekend price discovery; while existing perpetual contracts enable weekend trading, their range of underlying assets remains far too limited for retail brokerage products. 3. Crypto-native brokerages will go head-to-head with legacy TradFi (traditional finance) brokers, and being early to offer weekend spot trading will give these new crypto platforms a major competitive edge. 4. Retail stock investors currently trading on Web 2 platforms could enter the crypto ecosystem via these new brokerages, with capital flows eventually expanding into the broader crypto and decentralized finance (DeFi) sector
