Nigerian cryptocurrency analyst Rume Ophi stated in an interview that although the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) has lifted restrictions on Nigerian banks promoting cryptocurrency transactions, the cryptocurrency license requirements from the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) will significantly reduce the number of local cryptocurrency exchanges operating in the country. Rume explained that due to a minimum paid-up capital requirement of $556,620 (500 million Naira), many local exchanges are unable to afford operational costs. This requirement will result in primarily foreign exchanges operating in Nigeria, rather than a healthy balance.

Goldman Sachs Volatility Panic Index surged to 9.57, approaching its maximum value, with the largest single-day increase ranking third in history, and the combined two-day volatility setting a new record. Historical data shows that after this index has exceeded the 9.5 threshold 15 times, the S&P 500 has seen an average three-month gain of 4.6% with a success rate of 80%. However, Goldman Sachs traders warn that forced liquidations have not yet fully cleared, and the market is still searching for a bottom, but opportunities on the other side are becoming increasingly difficult to ignore.
