Description
Markets are locked in defensive mode this Good Friday as Bitcoin trades near sixty-six thousand seven hundred dollars amid geopolitical chaos and a massive two hundred eighty-six million dollar Drift Protocol exploit.

North Korean hackers are linked to the largest DeFi hack of twenty twenty-six, while institutional miners dump holdings and negative market structure signals pile up. Meanwhile, Todd Blanche becomes interim Attorney General despite past conflicts over crypto enforcement, and March jobs data beats expectations-raising questions about Fed rate paths. This briefing cuts through the noise to deliver what's moving markets right now across crypto, equities, oil, and macro.
