Robinhood CEO Vlad Tenev announced that he will partner with the U.S. Department of the Treasury to launch “Trump Accounts,” aiming to attract the next generation of investors. The account will be fee-free and has already attracted more than 4 million children to sign up. It is available to children born between 2025 and 2028, driving future growth.

Polymarket data shows that the probability of a ceasefire between the U.S. and Iran by May 15 has fallen to 37%. The total trading volume of this event contract exceeds $107 million. U.S. Vice President Vance reiterated the final deadline for Iran, while Trump threatened that there will be strikes if the Strait of Hormuz is not reopened.

The expected shift around Iran ceasefire talks is toward pessimism, and the trading market shows that the ceasefire success rate set by Trump is only 3%. Iran rejected a short-term ceasefire proposal and put forward long-term political and economic conditions, further compressing the room for negotiations. Energy markets are strengthening in expectation, and the probability that WTI crude for April, which hit $120, rises to 77%. Crypto assets such as Bitcoin are under pressure during the phase when risk appetite declines, with capital flowing into traditional safe-haven assets.

Robinhood announced it is joining the U.S. Department of the Treasury-backed “Trump Account” financial program, acting as a broker and the initial trustee, emphasizing compliance and the safety of funds. The news pushed its stock price up in the short term, but it faces uncertainty in the SpaceX IPO competition. Its future performance will depend on its ability to execute its business.

The U.S. Department of the Treasury has selected BNY Mellon and a financial technology company to implement the tax-deferred investment account plan under the 530A provision introduced by Trump. The plan is intended to establish government-subsidized savings accounts for children of U.S. citizens born after 2025, with an initial amount of $1,000 per account, invested in stock market index funds.

Gate News message, April 5, according to data, within the two months after major global shock events, Bitcoin generally performed better than gold and the S&P 500 index (a U.S. stock market benchmark index). In specific data, after the Trump administration announced large-scale tariff measures in April 2025, Bitcoin rose 24% in the following 60 days, gold rose 8%, and the S&P 500 rose 4%. In early March 2020, when the COVID-19 pandemic broke out, Bitcoin also rose 21%, outperforming gold and the S&P 500 index.

Anthropic has applied to the U.S. Federal Election Commission to form a member-funded political action committee, AnthroPAC, a move tied to its dispute with the Trump administration over the use of AI for military purposes. The company previously refused the Pentagon’s request and sued the government; a court has temporarily stayed the finding that it poses a risk to the national security supply chain.

This week, due to Trump’s tough remarks targeting Iran, gold prices fell, with spot gold and futures down 2% and 2.5%, respectively. Rising oil prices boosted inflation expectations, reducing gold’s appeal. In addition, the entire precious metals complex faced pressure: UBS cut its gold price outlook, so investors need to watch how the situation in the Middle East and market volatility affect prices.

Trump family crypto project WLFI was rated “D” by new rating agency CORE3, making it a high-risk investment. CORE3 provides public, transparent risk assessments by analyzing the likelihood of capital losses, pointing out that WLFI faces multiple risks, including a lack of monitoring and security measures. This rating has drawn investors’ attention and may affect market decisions.

In April 2026, Trump admitted that strikes had been launched against Iranian infrastructure, causing market sentiment to weaken and pulling the price of Bitcoin back to $66,300. Rising geopolitical risk caused financial markets to diverge; Asian stocks rebounded, while crypto assets came under pressure. If the situation deteriorates, Bitcoin’s support level at $65,000 would trigger technical selling. Market drivers shifted toward geopolitics, and in the short term Bitcoin is unlikely to shake off the impact of macro shocks.
