What to expect next
Iran’s refusal to engage in ceasefire talks and the potential instability of the US military pause leave BTC vulnerable to downside testing, particularly around $70,000.
If geopolitical tensions escalate or macro conditions weaken, Bitcoin may fall toward the $68,000–$70,000 zone.
Conversely, any progress in diplomacy or a lift in risk appetite could push the market back up toward $74,000.
