April 9: Bitcoin Consolidates Near $71K as Iran Ceasefire Frays
from Daily Crypto News
Bitcoin holds near $71K after a ceasefire-fueled surge to $72,800, but the truce showed early signs of fraying within 48 hours, keeping volatility high as oil rebounds and analysts clash on whether a breakout to $80K or deeper correction looms. Morgan Stanley’s low-fee Bitcoin ETF launched with strong day-one inflows (~$30–34M), while Strategy continued aggressive accumulation. Regulatory moves included U.S. Treasury demands for stablecoin AML compliance and South Korea’s bank-style stablecoin rules. Iran’s proposed Bitcoin tanker tolls added a geopolitical crypto twist—markets cautious but supported by institutional flows and dip-buying demand. Hosted on Acast.
