July 9th - According to China.com, the State Council Information Office will hold a press conference at 10:00 AM on Tuesday, July 14th, 2026, where Wang Jun, Deputy Director of the General Administration of Customs, will introduce the import and export situation in the first half of 2026 and answer questions from reporters.July 9th - Following the second consecutive day of US strikes against Iran, the fragile ceasefire agreement between the two countries is increasingly unstable, bringing traffic in the Strait of Hormuz to a near standstill on Thursday. Ship tracking data shows that observable traffic on this vital global energy corridor is concentrated primarily on the northern side of the waterway, via Iranian-approved routes, while the US-backed Oman corridor is virtually deserted. Among large vessels, only one very large crude carrier (VLCC) sanctioned by the US has left the Persian Gulf, while one container ship flying the Iranian flag was seen in the strait. However, it cannot be ruled out that some vessels may have passed through the strait with their transponders switched off. This contrasts sharply with recent daily activity in the Strait of Hormuz. Kpler data shows that in the three weeks since the US and Iran reached a temporary agreement to reopen the Strait of Hormuz, the average daily transit of cargo ships has been 34, peaking at 59 on June 24th, compared to less than 20 on most days during the war.July 9th - According to a press conference held today by the National Forestry and Grassland Administration, as part of the APEC China Year series of events, under the guidance of the Ministry of Natural Resources, the National Forestry and Grassland Administration, the Peoples Government of Guangdong Province, and the Peoples Government of Shenzhen Municipality will convene the APEC Forestry Ministerial Meeting in Shenzhen from July 27th to 28th.

Indian Exchange Volumes Benefiting from Bitcoin Price Drop

Bitcoin's anticipated fall from grace in recent days was a phenomenon that surprised investors and dealers. However, this was a happy moment for Indian crypto exchange operators, as trading volumes increased dramatically once BTC's price retested the lower $29,000 zone.

Indian Stock Exchange Volumes Increase

Following a dry period, trade volumes on Indian crypto platforms increased. For the most of this year, Bitcoin and other altcoins experienced a range bound price movement, and Indian crypto exchange volumes were similarly modest.


As bitcoin's price fell by more than 56% from its all-time high of $69,000 in November 2021, transaction volumes increased throughout marketplaces as a result of the selling pressure.


According to accounts from local news organizations, the increase in volumes in India was enormous and lasted almost two days. Trade volumes on crypto trading platforms including WazirX, CoinDCX, and Unocoin increased by 20 to 75 percent.


"Overall volumes increased by 70% between May 8 and 9," stated Nischal Shetty, Co-founder and CEO of WazirX, in an interview. In terms of trading, there is a mood of 'buying the drop,' as buyers have been somewhat controlling the market."


He went on to say that such purchasing activity shows that investor confidence in the market is still high, even at current levels.

India's Web3 Developments Increasing My Pace

According to a recent research, the number of Web3 developers reporting their locations climbed the highest in India and Russia, respectively, increasing to 5.3 percent and 4.3 percent of the market share. The United States, on the other hand, has lost over 20% of its market share since 2015.


With the emergence of Web3 and blockchain development in the Indian subcontinent, an increase in trading volumes amid a wider market fall indicates market players' trust. This meant that Indians succumbed to the "buy the dip" mentality.


"Volatility usually leads to a rise in volume on platforms like ours," said Minal Thukral, Executive Vice President, Growth and Strategy at CoinDCX. We're witnessing an increase in the number of people purchasing the dip and a decrease in the number of users selling it."


However, since the new tax policy took effect on April 1, trade volumes on Indian crypto exchanges have decreased. However, it seems that Indians are increasingly taking greater risks, indicating a growing interest in hazardous asset investments in the country.
