According to CoinDesk, Bitcoin (BTC) fell 1.7% in the past 24 hours in response to increased Middle East tensions and a shift to traditional safe havens such as gold and the Swiss franc. Despite the short-term pullback, analysts including Boris Alergant and Matt Mena maintain a bullish outlook, citing stable U.S. inflation and potential Fed rate cuts as positive catalysts. BTC options open interest is at $36.7 billion, with bullish call positioning at the $140,000 strike for the June 27 expiry, and spot BTC ETF net flows reached $164.6 million. The SEC's openness to altcoin ETFs and strong digital asset fund inflows indicate renewed institutional confidence. However, further escalation in the Middle East could trigger additional volatility, so traders should closely monitor macroeconomic events and regulatory updates.
