On May 23, U.S. President Trump posted on Truth Social, stating that a peace agreement between the U.S. and Iran is nearing finalization, the Strait of Hormuz will be reopened, and details will be announced "soon." This is Trump's most explicit statement on the agreement to date, with the cooling of geopolitical risks driving Bitcoin to rebound sharply to $77,000. (Previous coverage: U.S. and Iranian negotiating teams facilitate a "second meeting," but details such as schedule and location remain unconfirmed) (Background: Bitcoin fluctuates at $83,000; major interest rate decisions from the Fed, Bank of England, and Bank of Japan are coming this week: focus on the Fed dot plot) The statement indicated that the peace agreement between the U.S. and Iran has been "largely negotiated, with final details and terms currently under discussion and to be announced soon." Bitcoin rebounded sharply from its lows last night, surging back above $77,000 shortly after 4:00 AM this morning. The driving force came from U.S. President Trump, who revealed on Truth Social that he was in the Oval Office at the White House, having just completed a "very smooth" video call with leaders from Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Qatar, Pakistan, Turkey, Egypt, Jordan, and Bahrain, with discussions centered on Iran and a memorandum of peace. He also stated that he held a one-on-one call with Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu, similarly describing the process as "very smooth." On the other hand, Trump pointed out that the Strait of Hormuz will also be reopened. Once the blockade of this shipping lane, through which approximately 20% of global oil exports pass, is lifted, it is expected to significantly reduce concerns regarding energy supply chains in the Middle East. This is Trump's most straightforward public statement on the agreement to date, with his wording officially upgraded from previous "progress in negotiations" to "nearing finalization," a signal widely viewed by diplomatic observers as the agreement entering its final stages. It is not just the U.S. and Iran driving this geopolitical chess game. According to diplomatic sources, Pakistan's Chief of Army Staff Munir has served as a key mediator in this round of talks, Qatar has intervened extensively over the past week, and Saudi Arabia, Egypt, and Turkey have simultaneously pressured both sides to help narrow their differences. The current goal set by all parties is to complete a one-page framework agreement and officially announce it by Sunday, Eastern Time, followed by the initiation of more detailed formal negotiations within a few days to address technical issues such as follow-up arrangements for the nuclear program and the timeline for lifting sanctions. A spokesperson for the Iranian Ministry of Foreign Affairs also stated on the same day that Iran and the U.S. have entered the final discussion stage of a "memorandum to end the war," with Iran's core demands including: the gradual reopening of the Strait of Hormuz, the lifting of the U.S. blockade, the release of frozen Iranian overseas funds, and a detailed follow-up negotiation schedule of 30 to 60 days.
