  • The decline aligns with US and Israeli airstrikes on Iranian sites and fears of the Strait of Hormuz closure.
  • This situation has led to a broad sell-off across major cryptocurrencies like Ethereum and Solana, as investors shift to safer assets such as gold.
  • Concerns over higher oil prices and inflation could maintain high interest rates, pressuring speculative assets like crypto.
  • Short-term traders face potential losses if Bitcoin trends toward $60,000, while long-term holders remain in profit zones but cautious.
