According to Hyperinsight monitoring, the address starting with 0xec4 opened a 20x leveraged long Brent crude oil position two days ago, then added a large 30x leveraged Nasdaq 100 (XYZ100) short position roughly one hour before Trump’s Middle East remarks triggered market volatility, finalizing the setup.

US President Donald Trump said the temporary ceasefire agreement he reached with Iran has ended, raising the risk of renewed military conflict between the two nations. Speaking at NATO’s annual summit on Wednesday, Trump stated: “For me, I think it’s over. As far as I’m concerned, it’s just a waste of time.” Reports note that Trump’s remarks came shortly after the U.S. launched a new round of strikes against Iran and revoked waivers that had allowed Iranian oil sales. The moves, in response to recent attacks on vessels in the Strait of Hormuz, have sparked new volatility in energy markets and further strained the already fragile peace between Washington and Tehran.
