尽管市场波动，比特币仍将“减半”

在周五波动的交易时段中，在即将到来的“减半”事件和中东紧张局势加剧之前，比特币（BTC-USD）和油价经历了大幅波动。比特币减半预计将于 4 月 19 日至 20 日举行，届时矿工奖励将会减少，这可能会影响其价格。与此同时，在伊朗袭击以色列和以色列报复性空袭后，布伦特原油和西德克萨斯中质原油价格飙升。尽管财务状况良好，但由于第二季度收入预测令人失望，Netflix (NFLX) 股价下跌，而由于投资者在地缘政治担忧中寻求避险，黄金 (GC=F) 触及每盎司 2,428 美元。

Bitcoin Poised for "Halving" Amidst Market Volatility

市场波动中比特币有望“减半”

Bitcoin (BTC-USD) has experienced considerable price fluctuations this week, oscillating between $59,980 (£48,222) and $64,500 on Friday alone, in anticipation of the impending "halving" event.

由于预期即将到来的“减半”事件，比特币（BTC-USD）本周经历了相当大的价格波动，仅周五就在 59,980 美元（48,222 英镑）和 64,500 美元之间波动。

The Bitcoin halving, a phenomenon that occurs approximately every four years, entails a reduction in the number of bitcoins awarded to miners, resulting in increased scarcity and potentially influencing the cryptocurrency's market value. The completion of the halving is anticipated on either April 19th or 20th, with the block reward decreasing from 6.25 to 3.125 BTC per block.

比特币减半是一种大约每四年发生一次的现象，导致奖励给矿工的比特币数量减少，导致稀缺性增加，并可能影响加密货币的市场价值。预计减半将于 4 月 19 日或 20 日完成，区块奖励将从每个区块 6.25 BTC 降至 3.125 BTC。

Previous halvings have historically spurred price increases for Bitcoin. On Friday morning in London, the cryptocurrency's price had ascended by 5.3% over the preceding 24 hours.

从历史上看，之前的减半刺激了比特币的价格上涨。周五早上在伦敦，加密货币的价格在过去 24 小时内上涨了 5.3%。

This halving follows the approval of multiple spot Bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs) in January, which has attracted significant inflows into products launched by major financial institutions such as Blackrock (BLK) and Fidelity.

此次减半是在一月份多个现货比特币交易所交易基金（ETF）获得批准之后进行的，该基金吸引了大量资金流入贝莱德（BLK）和富达等主要金融机构推出的产品。

Oil Prices Surge Amidst Geopolitical Tensions

地缘政治紧张局势下油价飙升

Oil prices have fluctuated dramatically this week, largely influenced by escalating tensions in the Middle East. Brent crude and West Texas Intermediate declined simultaneously on Wednesday before rebounding on Friday as energy markets assess the repercussions of Iran's attack on Israel and Israel's retaliatory airstrikes late on Thursday.

本周油价大幅波动，很大程度上受到中东紧张局势升级的影响。布伦特原油和西德克萨斯中质原油周三同时下跌，周五反弹，能源市场评估伊朗袭击以色列和以色列周四晚间报复性空袭的影响。

According to Sky News, there have been no reports of significant damage or casualties in Iran thus far.

据天空新闻报道，到目前为止，伊朗尚未收到重大损失或人员伤亡的报告。

Brent crude was trading at $87.90 per barrel on Friday, while crude oil stood at $83.53, both exhibiting an increase of approximately 1% shortly after 9:00 AM.

周五，布伦特原油价格为每桶 87.90 美元，原油价格为 83.53 美元，上午 9:00 后不久，两者均上涨约 1%。

Netflix Revenue Forecast Disappoints, Shares Drop

Netflix 收入预测令人失望，股价下跌

Netflix stock fell sharply by almost 4.8% in premarket trading on Friday following the release of a disappointing revenue forecast for the second quarter.

在发布令人失望的第二季度收入预测后，Netflix 股价在周五盘前交易中大幅下跌近 4.8%。

Despite positive metrics such as a 54% increase in operating income and the addition of 9.3 million global subscribers in the first quarter, management indicated that net additions would decelerate in the second quarter relative to the first quarter due to "typical seasonality."

尽管第一季度营业收入增长了 54%，全球用户增加了 930 万等积极指标，但管理层表示，由于“典型的季节性”，第二季度的净增长量将较第一季度放缓。

However, the company's operating margin rose by seven percentage points to 28%, and management revised its full-year margin guidance upward to 25%.

然而，该公司的营业利润率上升了 7 个百分点，达到 28%，管理层将全年利润率指引上调至 25%。

Gold Nears Record Highs on Safe-Haven Demand

避险需求推动黄金接近历史新高

Gold momentarily approached record highs on Friday, reaching $2,428 per ounce as geopolitical uncertainties drive investors toward safe-haven assets. It is currently trading slightly above $2,404. The metal's price has surged from around $2,000 this year alone, buoyed by various conflicts.

由于地缘政治的不确定性促使投资者转向避险资产，周五金价一度逼近历史新高，达到每盎司 2,428 美元。目前其交易价格略高于 2,404 美元。受各种冲突的推动，该金属的价格仅今年就从 2,000 美元左右飙升。

"A clear geopolitical risk premium has been propelling the market," said Neil Wilson, Chief Market Analyst at Finalto. "However, a simple metric comparing M1 money supply to above-ground gold implies that $2,400 is roughly the average."

Finalto 首席市场分析师 Neil Wilson 表示：“明显的地缘政治风险溢价一直在推动市场发展。” “然而，将 M1 货币供应量与地上黄金进行比较的简单指标表明，2,400 美元大致是平均值。”
