Gate News 消息，3 月 14 日，美国内政部长道格·伯格姆周六表示，特朗普政府曾讨论过通过交易石油期货市场遏制油价，但他并不清楚美国目前是否已实际介入市场。伯格姆称："确实有过相关讨论。本届政府中有很多聪明人——能源交易市场也有很多聪明人。试图通过干预来操纵和降低价格需要巨额资金。“负责监管美国西得克萨斯中质原油（WTI，美国原油基准价格）期货交易的机构负责人警告称，若联邦政府开始交易衍生品以降低原油价格，将是一场"圣经级的灾难”。

Why is Bitcoin down today? Saudi petrochemical industrial facilities were hit, and Trump issued an ultimatum to Iran
Bitcoin (BTC) fell to about $68,800 on April 7, driven by geopolitical risks in the Middle East and Trump’s hardline remarks toward Iran. The Saudi explosion incident boosted global safe-haven sentiment, and technical indicators showed overbought pressure.
