Just today, the global macro market experienced a "nuclear-level" shock.
This morning (April 8) at 6:32 AM, U.S. President Trump dropped a bombshell on social media, announcing a two-week "mutual ceasefire" agreement with Iran. In exchange, Iran agreed to fully, immediately, and safely open the global energy artery—the Strait of Hormuz.
This sudden geopolitical easing instantly drained the war premium that had long persisted in the crude oil market.
Waterfall Moment: Crude oil falls below $100, shorts celebrate
According to Hyperliquid trading data monitored by AiCoin, a textbook "waterfall" plunge occurred in crude oil (CL/USDC) perpetual contracts after Trump's tweet.
Within just a few hours, the price of CL/USDC plummeted from the previous days' established $116.650 high to a low of $90.526, currently hovering around $94.832. A single-day decline of 17.57% brought oil prices back to their pre-war levels [2]. Meanwhile, Brent crude oil (BRENTOIL/USDC) also dropped 15.37%, reported at $94.050 [2].
Behind this plunge is a massive amount of capital speculation. Hyperliquid data shows that the trading volume of CL/USDC exceeded an astonishing $2.1 billion in the past 24 hours. On this night filled with panic and greed, countless longs were liquidated, while those who sensed the ceasefire signal early and decisively shorted at $116 enjoyed explosive profit growth.
Seesaw Effect: A full counterattack from crypto assets and precious metals
As the shadow of war dissipates, funds quickly exit the safe-haven oil market and flow into riskier assets. This classic "macro seesaw effect" is vividly demonstrated in the asset list from Hyperliquid:
- The crypto market is warming up across the board: Bitcoin (BTC) rose 3.70% to $71,298; Ethereum (ETH) rose 5.94% to $2,233.1; and Hyperliquid's platform token HYPE also recorded a 5.44% increase, at $38.388.
- Safe-haven and anti-inflation assets dance together: Gold (GOLD) and Silver (SILVER) rose 3.24% and 4.87%, respectively, showing that the market, while digesting the good news of the ceasefire, is still hedging against potential inflation risks.
- Privacy concepts rise up: Notably, ZEC/USDC skyrocketed 25.96%, becoming one of the brightest stars of the night.
In this grand feast of macro and crypto asset resonance, Hyperliquid's HIP-3 market once again proved its strength as a "global macro liquidity black hole." A single product daily trading volume of $2.1 billion not only crushed many traditional derivatives platforms but also made all on-chain traders feel an unprecedented depth of liquidity.
Grasping the Major Macro Turning Point: Is Your Terminal Fast Enough?
Trump clearly stated in his tweet: "Almost all contentious issues between the U.S. and Iran have reached agreement, and this two-week period will finalize and formally establish the agreement."
