Cena Bitcoina pada. Zakaj bi lahko neuspešno prenehanje ognja v Iranu uničilo kriptovalute? — Barrons.com

By Adam Clark
Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies were trading modestly down early Thursday, as investors watched to see if a fragile truce between the U.S. and Iran holds.
Bitcoin was down 0.8% at $71,073. The largest crypto surged on the announcement of a cease-fire on Wednesday but has given up some of its gains after Iran threatened to keep the Strait of Hormuz closed in response to Israeli strikes on Lebanon.
"We believe a retest of the $69,000 — $70,000 level is due before a move higher can commence. If the cease-fire does not hold, we will likely slide to $66,000 if hostilities continue," said Matt Mena, a strategist at 21shares.
Cryptocurrencies have generally traded as high-volatility risk assets in recent months and have dropped on any signs that fighting in the Middle East will drag on.
A particular concern is that sustained higher energy prices will lead central banks to delay interest-rate cuts or even increase rates. Higher interest rates reduce the attraction of nonyielding assets like cryptocurrency.
Among other cryptos, Ethereum was down 3%, XRP was falling 3.5% and Solana was dropping 2.7%.
