Trump's Renewed Tariff Threats Fail to Impact Bitcoin (BTC) and Equity Markets, Signaling Muted Geopolitical Risk

According to Fox News, while the Trump administration highlights its 'unprecedented action' to ensure U.S. economic strength, related financial market analysis indicates that recent tariff threats are failing to cause significant volatility. Market data shows that assets like Bitcoin (BTC) and the S&P 500 are trading with low volatility, largely ignoring the rhetoric. Furthermore, interest rate expectations for Federal Reserve cuts remain steady, as per the CME FedWatch tool, suggesting traders may anticipate a compromise and are discounting the immediate impact of these geopolitical developments. This muted reaction contrasts with previous periods where similar threats led to significant market downturns, indicating a potential shift in how traders are pricing in political risk for both crypto and traditional assets.

Bitcoin (BTC) Price Resilient Above $100K Amid Geopolitical Tensions & Strong Institutional Buying

According to @lookonchain, Bitcoin (BTC) is demonstrating resilience by holding above the crucial $100,000 psychological threshold despite escalating geopolitical tensions in the Middle East. Analysts at QCP Capital attribute this stability to significant and continued institutional accumulation, evidenced by Strategy adding over 10,000 BTC and The Blockchain Group purchasing 182 BTC. Further positive sentiment comes from the US Senate's approval of the GENIUS Act for stablecoins, which the market interprets as a structural win for the crypto industry. However, derivatives data from Deribit signals trader caution, with a notable bias for protective put options at strike prices between $90,000 and $100,000. On the technical front, Chainlink's LINK token has confirmed renewed bearish momentum by dropping below the Ichimoku cloud, with immediate support identified at the $12.6 level.

Bitcoin (BTC) Price Volatility: BTC Dips Below $104K on Geopolitical Tensions, Then Rallies Past $106K on Ceasefire News

According to @WhiteHouse, the cryptocurrency market experienced significant volatility driven by geopolitical events. Initially, Bitcoin (BTC) fell 3.8% to under $104,000, with Ether (ETH) and Solana (SOL) slumping 7%, following President Trump's social media posts suggesting potential U.S. military involvement against Iran. Javier Rodriguez-Alarcón of XBTO noted this introduced a 'significant geopolitical risk premium, prompting an immediate flight from risk assets.' Similarly, Matteo Greco of Finequia warned that an impact on Iran's oil production could fuel inflation. However, the market reversed sharply after President Trump announced a 'complete and total ceasefire' between Iran and Israel. This news, reportedly confirmed by an Iranian official, sent Bitcoin surging from a low of $98,500 to over $106,000. Altcoins like ETH and SOL also posted strong recoveries with 8%-10% gains, demonstrating the market's high sensitivity to geopolitical de-escalation.

Bitcoin (BTC) Price Analysis: BTC Holds $105K Support Amid Geopolitical Tension, Eyeing $106K Resistance

According to @TATrader_Alan, Bitcoin (BTC) is demonstrating resilience by holding support around the $105,000 level despite significant geopolitical tensions in the Middle East and broader trade war fears. The analysis notes that while BTC experienced a brief dip below $104,200, it quickly rebounded on high volume, indicating strong buyer interest at lower levels. Key technical levels to watch are the support zone around $104,950 and resistance near $106,200, where profit-taking has been observed. The report highlights that BTC continues to maintain a pattern of higher lows, suggesting a bullish medium-term structure. This short-term volatility is contrasted with a long-term cultural shift, cited from Bitwise's Jeff Park, where owning a full Bitcoin is becoming a new 'American Dream' for younger generations, adding a layer of fundamental conviction to the asset.

Bitcoin (BTC) Price Dips on Geopolitical Risk as Trump Media Pushes Bitcoin-Ethereum ETF with NYSE Filing

According to @KobeissiLetter, escalating geopolitical tensions, highlighted by President Trump's remarks concerning Iran, have triggered a flight from risk assets, impacting the cryptocurrency market. Bitcoin (BTC) experienced a 3.8% decline, trading below $104,000, while Ethereum (ETH) and Solana (SOL) both dropped by 7%. Javier Rodriguez-Alarcón, Chief Investment Officer at XBTO, noted that this sudden escalation introduced a significant geopolitical risk premium. This downturn also affected crypto-related stocks, with Coinbase (COIN) and MicroStrategy (MSTR) falling 2-3% and Bitcoin miners like Riot Platforms (RIOT) losing 6-7%. Separately, the New York Stock Exchange has filed a 19b-4 rule change proposal to list the Truth Social Bitcoin and Ethereum ETF from Trump Media and Technology Group. If approved, the fund would hold BTC and ETH in a 3:1 ratio, with Crypto.com serving as the custodian and liquidity provider.

Bitcoin (BTC) Price Stalls at $105K on Geopolitical Tensions, But Institutional Buying and Bullish Indicators Persist

According to @jessepollak, Bitcoin (BTC) is currently range-bound around $105,000 due to market uncertainty over the escalating Israel-Iran conflict, as reported by trading firm QCP. QCP's analysis notes that risk reversals have shifted, with BTC puts commanding a premium, signaling heightened investor anxiety and downside hedging. Despite this defensive posture and over $1 billion in recent liquidations, on-chain data reveals that significant institutional buying continues to provide support. Further bullish sentiment comes from the U.S. Federal Housing Finance Agency, whose director Bill Pulte has ordered Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac to prepare for counting cryptocurrency as a mortgage asset. In addition, spot BTC ETFs have recorded 12 consecutive days of net inflows, recently adding $548 million, according to Farside Investors. On the altcoin front, SEI has surged 50% in a week, driven by its selection as a settlement layer for Wyoming's state-backed stablecoin pilot and strong spot-led buying, as noted by analyst Shaurya Malwa.

Bitcoin (BTC) Price Dips 3.8% as US-Iran Geopolitical Risk Spikes, Triggering Broad Crypto Market Sell-Off

According to @FoxNews, escalating geopolitical tensions between the U.S. and Iran have triggered a significant downturn in the cryptocurrency market. The report states that Bitcoin (BTC) has fallen 3.8%, while other major assets like Ether (ETH) and Solana (SOL) have slumped by 7%, and SUI dipped nearly 10%. This risk-off sentiment is also reflected in crypto-related stocks, with major miners and exchanges seeing losses between 2% and 7%. Javier Rodriguez-Alarcón, CIO at XBTO, attributes the sell-off to a 'significant geopolitical risk premium' causing a flight from risk assets, as cited in the report. Furthermore, concerns are rising over Iran potentially closing the Strait of Hormuz, which analyst Matteo Greco of Finequia warns could lead to a spike in oil prices and renewed inflation. In a notable counter-trend, the Solana-based 'digital oil memecoin' (OIL) has reportedly surged over 400% amid the turmoil.

Bitcoin (BTC) Holds $100K Support Amid Geopolitical Tension & Institutional Buys; Ethereum (ETH) Eyes $3K on DVT Upgrade

According to @rovercrc, Bitcoin (BTC) is demonstrating resilience by holding above the key $100,000 psychological threshold, currently trading near $105,000 despite escalating geopolitical tensions in the Middle East. Analysts at crypto hedge fund QCP Capital note that this price stability is underpinned by significant institutional accumulation, with firms like Strategy adding over 10,000 BTC and The Blockchain Group purchasing 182 BTC. In parallel, Ethereum (ETH) is outperforming BTC, with market observers attributing its strength to bullish developments like the U.S. Senate's approval of stablecoin legislation and a fundamental upgrade in its validator architecture. Anthony Bertolino of Obol Labs highlights that the adoption of Distributed Validator Technology (DVT) by major staking protocols like Lido is making Ethereum staking 'enterprise-grade,' a crucial step for attracting institutional capital. On the technical front, Chainlink's LINK token has turned bearish after dropping below the Ichimoku cloud, with immediate support identified at the $12.6 level. The derivatives market signals caution, as indicated by a high demand for protective BTC put options.
