TechFlow News, February 10: Following the incident in the Strait of Hormuz on February 3, the U.S. Maritime Administration (MARAD) issued a notice advising vessels flying the U.S. flag to steer clear of Iranian territorial waters as much as possible without compromising navigational safety, and to pass close to Omani territorial waters when sailing eastward. BiyaPay analysts believe that heightened shipping security risks and Middle East geopolitical tensions typically boost market risk-aversion sentiment and volatility, potentially triggering sharp short-term price swings—both upward and downward—for Bitcoin. The key factor lies in whether oil prices and U.S. dollar liquidity are further disrupted. As a multi-asset trading wallet, BiyaPay supports USDT-based trading of U.S. equities, Hong Kong equities, and futures, and offers zero-fee spot and derivatives trading for cryptocurrencies—enabling users to diversify across multiple assets and respond flexibly during periods of elevated risk.
