US-Iran Talks Resume as Bitcoin and Gold Prices Fall

Crypto and gold prices are experiencing a downturn on Monday, with Bitcoin (BTC) falling below $84,000. A previous attempt to restart the uptrend over the weekend failed to gain momentum, as BTC was rejected around $85,000.

Gold (XAU/USD) is trading under pressure, edging closer to its short-term support at $4,100. The ongoing correction has drawn attention to the $4,000 region, where buyers could re-engage and potentially spark a rebound.

The US is expected to resume indirect talks with Iran on Monday or Tuesday, according to a Reuters report citing an official briefed on the discussions. The discussions are expected to center on an amended version of Iran's seven-day proposal, which includes demands such as lifting the naval blockade on Iranian ports and easing sanctions on oil exports.
