Bitcoin Price Drops Below $80K Amid Escalating Tensions and Rising Oil Prices
Bitcoin's price dipped below $80,000 amid escalating US-Iran tensions and rising oil prices. The conflict pushed crude above $101 per barrel, fueling inflation concerns.
The US 10-year Treasury yield reached a three-year high, further reducing appetite for risk assets like Bitcoin. Meanwhile, the Japanese yen strengthened significantly, adding market strain and prompting speculation about potential Bank of Japan rate hikes.
