According to Axios, US President Trump stated in a phone interview that the US is engaged in "deep negotiations" with Iran and hopes to reach an agreement before Tuesday's deadline. "The chances of reaching an agreement are very high, but if they don't, I will destroy everything there," he said. When asked if he was worried about harming innocent civilians, Trump said he believed Iranians opposed to his government would support such strikes to weaken the regime. In the approximately eight-minute phone interview, Trump stated that his special envoys, Witkov and Kushner, were conducting intensive negotiations with the Iranian side. Two sources involved in the negotiations said communication was being conducted both through intermediaries such as Pakistan, Egypt, and Turkey, and through text messages between Trump's advisors and Iranian Foreign Minister Araghchi. "The negotiations are progressing well, but dealing with the Iranians is never a long way off," Trump said. He also stated that the two sides were close to reaching an agreement to hold direct talks a few days earlier. "But they said they would meet again in five days. I asked, why five days? I felt they weren't serious enough. So I attacked that bridge," Trump said. (Jin Shi)

Huoxun Finance reports that economist and cryptocurrency critic Peter Schiff has called for a sell-off of Bitcoin, a call refuted by Strategy founder Michael Saylor. Schiff pointed out earlier that Bitcoin's price has only risen 12% over the past five years; in contrast, the Nasdaq rose 57.4%, the S&P 500 rose 59.4%, gold rose 163%, and silver rose 181% during the same period. He questioned why anyone would continue to hold Bitcoin if its appeal lies in its superior long-term performance. Saylor responded that the time frame is crucial. Since August 2020, Bitcoin has been the best-performing mainstream asset, and its advantage is very significant; this gap only widens over a longer timeframe.
