Brent crude topped $100 per barrel for the first time since May after attacks on two Saudi oil tankers in the Red Sea prompted President Donald Trump to threaten Iran and the Houthi rebels with major military punishment.

US-listed spot Bitcoin ETFs posted $225.2 million in net outflows on July 23, snapping a seven-session inflow streak. JPMorgan analysts estimated that a three-month supply disruption could push Brent toward $114 per barrel, further tightening financial conditions for Bitcoin.
