Market observers say recent geopolitical shocks have not disrupted their broader outlooks for Bitcoin, even as volatility rises.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Over the weekend, Bitcoin showed a relatively muted response to escalating tensions between the United States and Iran. While traditional markets reacted more sharply, BTC fluctuated between approximately 63,000 and 68,000 dollars before settling near 65,500 dollars on Monday. The moves followed reports of heightened conflict and claims that Iran\u2019s Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, was killed in a joint US and Israeli airstrike.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Despite the dramatic backdrop, several analysts argue that the broader market structure remains intact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Analysts Call It a High Risk Zone<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

In a post on X, market commentator Mr. Wall Street stated that the outbreak of war has not altered his outlook. He does not believe the cycle bottom has formed at 60,000 dollars. Instead, he expects Bitcoin to rally toward the 80,000 to 85,000 dollar range before eventually declining to around 45,000 dollars later this year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

His view reflects short term optimism combined with mid term caution. In his assessment, geopolitical shocks may create temporary volatility but do not invalidate expectations of a near term rally followed by a deeper correction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Another well known analyst, Doctor Profit, also said the conflict has not changed his broader bearish stance. He described Bitcoin as remaining in a high risk zone and insisted that the market has not yet reached its bottom. He added that his major short position has been open since September and remains unchanged. Although the two analysts differ on near term direction, both agree that recent events have not fundamentally shifted their underlying theses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Conflict May Already Be Reflected in Prices<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Trader CrypNuevo suggested that markets had already been pricing in the possibility of US Iran escalation during the previous week. In this view, the downside may be limited because much of the uncertainty was anticipated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, questions remain about how long the conflict could last and whether disruptions to the Strait of Hormuz might occur. Since Bitcoin often mirrors stock futures, a negative open in US equities could weigh on BTC, though any signs of de escalation might quickly support a rebound.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

CrypNuevo considers a prolonged conflict unlikely, noting that an extended closure of the Strait of Hormuz would likely drive oil prices higher and push up US inflation, a scenario he does not expect. His approach is to observe the stock market reaction. A sharp selloff could present an opportunity to enter long positions around the 61,000 to 60,000 dollar range ahead of potential de escalation news. If the decline proves mild or markets stabilize, he would prefer to wait before taking a position later in the week.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
