The U.S. is rolling back selective sanctions on Venezuelan crude oil, green-lighting limited exports right now. This shift could reshape global energy market dynamics and liquidity flows. When major commodity policies pivot like this, it typically ripples through macro markets—impacting inflation expectations, currency valuations, and ultimately risk asset positioning. Traders watching geopolitical catalysts should keep an eye on how this develops.

Venezuela's oil sanctions are lifted, now we can access more liquidity data. I need to quickly run through the mempool to see if there are any arbitrage opportunities... Just thinking about it makes me excited.

The US's recent move is really a bit outrageous; Venezuela's crude oil has been released... Looks like the energy market is going to shake up a bit.

Playing the geopolitical game again, huh? This move by the US is really a "rubber band of economic sanctions"—release it when you want, retract it when you want.
