Bitcoin has decreased by nearly 4% in the past 24 hours after former U.S. President Donald Trump posted on social media hinting at the possibility of the U.S. assassinating Iran's supreme leader, raising Middle East tensions to a new high.
Market developments:
Bitcoin (BTC):
Dropped to $103,630 (the lowest in 5 days)
Currently recovering slightly to $104,000
The downward trend began on Thursday after the Iran-Israel airstrike
Altcoin:
Ethereum (ETH): ~ $2,470 (down 6.5%)
Solana (SOL) & Cardano (ADA): Down ~7%
Dogecoin (DOGE): Lost 6.7% of its value
Underlying cause:
Geopolitical factors:
Trump's threats raise concerns about large-scale armed conflict
Investors rush to sell risky assets (risk-off)
Historical impact:
The crypto market is always sensitive to Middle East tensions
A similar sell-off occurred after the assassination of General Qasem Soleimani (2020)
Forecast: The market may continue to experience high volatility if tensions escalate, especially in the context of recent selling pressure from Bitcoin ETF funds.
