Bitcoin and Ethereum declined sharply during the first half of the day, with several factors contributing to the sell-off. Bitcoin is trading around $62,000, while Ethereum is hovering near $1,740.
The cryptocurrency market came under heavy selling pressure after U.S. President Donald Trump stated that the ceasefire with Iran had effectively collapsed. "In my opinion, the ceasefire with Iran is no longer in effect and has effectively come to an end. There is no point in continuing negotiations with Tehran. I no longer want anything to do with them because they are scum," Trump said, adding harsh criticism of the Iranian leadership and describing them as "sick people." He also confirmed that the United States had carried out major strikes against Iran overnight in response to missile attacks on ships near the Strait of Hormuz, accusing Iran of "playing dirty."
The cryptocurrency market reacted immediately and aggressively. Bitcoin fell by more than 3%, dropping to around $61,691 after previously trading above $64,000. The latest escalation involving Iran also fits a broader pattern that has been evident throughout the year: the market has reacted almost reflexively to similar headlines—whether it was Trump's May warning that "the clock is ticking," which triggered a decline toward $76,500, the June sell-off following reports of a helicopter being shot down, or the temporary rally after the signing of a preliminary memorandum in mid-June.
Each time, the pattern has been the same: escalation weighs heavily on the cryptocurrency market while pushing oil prices higher, whereas de-escalation produces the opposite effect. As long as the conflict remains suspended between renewed escalation and a possible return to negotiations, the market is likely to remain highly sensitive to every new headline coming out of the White House.
