$BTC Drops Below $100K After U.S. Strikes on Iran

Bitcoin fell below $100,000 for the first time in over a month following U.S. airstrikes on Iran. The world's largest cryptocurrency dropped 4%, hitting around $99,300. Ethereum, the second-largest by market cap, saw an even steeper decline of nearly 10%. The total crypto market fell 7% in a day.

The selloff came after U.S. airstrikes hit three key nuclear sites in Iran on Saturday. President Trump authorized the attack as part of escalating tensions, after a U.N. report highlighted Iran's non-compliance with nuclear program restrictions. The geopolitical turmoil impacted the market, with Bitcoin's price tracking a broader decline in tech stocks.

Bitcoin had reached a record high above $100,000 in early 2025, buoyed by favorable policies under President Trump, known for his pro-crypto stance. However, following his administration's imposition of severe tariffs, the price dipped to a low of $75,000 before staging a recovery in recent months.
