March 16 — The Financial Times reports former President Donald Trump warned NATO could face a "very bad" future if U.S. allies fail to help reopen the Strait of Hormuz. "Those who benefit from the strait should help ensure nothing bad happens there," he said. "Europe is far more dependent on Gulf oil than the U.S. If there’s no response — or a negative one — I think NATO’s future will be very bad." When asked what kind of help he was seeking, Trump replied, "Any help that’s necessary." He added allies should send minesweepers (noting Europe has far more than the U.S.) and called on Europe to deploy assault forces or other military assets to neutralize Iranian personnel using drones and mines to cause "trouble" in the Gulf. Trump also warned the U.S. is prepared to launch new strikes against Iran’s oil export hub on Kharg Island and may target its oil infrastructure.

March 15 — On-chain analyst Yu Jin reports that an address linked to 7,400 ETH from Tornado Cash (suspected of being a hacker) triggered a CAKE and THE collateral liquidation event on Venus Protocol tonight. The incident left Venus with an estimated $2.15 million liquidation shortfall (equivalent to ~1.18 million CAKE and 1.84 million THE), while the address had borrowed roughly $5.07 million in assets from Venus (including 2,172 BNB, 151,600 CAKE, and 20 BTC). Here’s the detailed process: 1. The address first received 7,400 ETH from Tornado Cash via the wallet 0x7a7...234. 2. It then borrowed ~$9.92 million in stablecoins (USDT, DAI, USDC) using Aave as collateral, dispersing funds to multiple wallets to buy THE. 3. Around 8:00 PM ET tonight, the address allegedly pumped THE’s price on a centralized exchange (CEX) — likely to set up long positions in advance — before depositing 36.1 million THE into Venus via two wallets as collateral to borrow BTC, BNB, CAKE, and other as
