๐ Bitcoin Briefly Dips Below $100K After U.S.โIran Strikes
The market shook after Trump confirmed precision strikes on Iranian nuclear sites. BTC briefly dipped below $100K, then rebounded to $101K โ a volatile reaction that signals both fear and resilience in crypto markets.
๐ HISTORICAL INSIGHT
Geopolitical conflict often causes temporary risk-off sentiment. In past flash war episodes (e.g., 2020 Iran tension, 2022 Ukraine invasion), BTC sold off sharply... but recovered within 1โ3 weeks as markets adjusted to new norms.
BTC's 100K level is now acting as psychological support. If history repeats, this dip may prove to be a buy-the-fear moment, especially as institutional interest remains robust.
๐ฎ PREDICTION ZONE
๐ข Bull Case: If BTC holds above $99.5K into Monday, we may see a short-term squeeze back toward $106โ108K.
๐ด Bear Case: A loss of $98.5K support could cascade toward $92Kโ94K before any rebound.
๐ก Neutral View: Choppy consolidation between $97Kโ102K as markets digest macro risks.
Options flow shows elevated puts on BTC and $MSTR, but also an uptick in long-dated calls โ indicating divided sentiment.
๐ง TRADING STRATEGY
๐งฉ For bulls: Consider phased entries in $BTC and $MSTR around $98Kโ$100K zone.
๐งฉ For hedgers: A straddle or protective puts on $COIN or $GBTC may limit downside.
๐งฉ For short-term traders: Watch for breakouts above $103K for momentum scalps.
Also note: Triple Witching Friday just passed โ expect residual volatility into early next week.
