In a rather shocking development for the tech company, Apple (AAPL) had reportedly had 5 planes full of iPhones flown in as the company sought to avoid new US tariffs. Indeed, the tech giant is one of many companies coping with US President Donald Trump’s new Liberation Day tariffs. The plan was announced last week with the goal of balancing trade. According to a new report, Apple loaded a handful of cargo planes with several products. The shipments would be US-bound, traveling from India and China in late March. Moreover, they greenlit the emergency shipments to increase the company’s supply. Conversely, they are now seeking out ways to avoid increasing consumer prices amid the 10% baseline import tax.

Analysts anticipate a major Bitcoin supply shock heading into April’s halving as BTC is down by nearly 10% since ETF approval.  Bitcoin’s supply dynamics have significantly changed since the SEC approved spot Bitcoin ETFs earlier this month. The leading token has been largely volatile in the past few weeks, but this volatility has remained within a very narrow price range. BTC’s price has fluctuated between $41,000 and $44,000, dropping below $41,500 today, the lowest price in 30 days.  Analysts attribute these short price movements to supply dynamics driven by the ETF market. Since yesterday, according to data from Arkham Intelligence, Grayscale has transferred over $1 billion worth of BTC to Coinbase from its ETF fund. With other major funds contributing to this massive inflow of around 5,000 to 7,000 BTC daily to their custodian exchanges, only 900 BTC is being mined daily.  INSANE #Bitcoin supply shock incoming. If we keep up massive BTC ETF inflows we’ll have thousands (5...
