Bitcoin passes $65,000 as US‑Iran pause drives oil price drop
The United States and Iran announced a pause in their military strikes on July 27, 2026, easing geopolitical tensions in the Middle East. The de‑escalation prompted a sharp decline in oil prices, with Brent crude falling to roughly $90 per barrel and West Texas Intermediate dropping about 5 % to near $85. The reduction in oil‑price risk‑premium shifted market sentiment toward risk assets.
Cryptocurrency markets responded positively: Bitcoin rose above $65,000, trading around $65,250, while Ethereum surged to near $2,000. Bitcoin ETFs saw inflows of about $33 million in the week to July 24, and Ethereum‑linked ETFs attracted $103.9 million. The rally extended to equity markets, with U.S. futures climbing, and the dollar showed only marginal movement against the Brazilian real. Iranian foreign‑ministry spokesman Esmaeil Baghaei reiterated that Tehran had not resumed negotiations with Washington, underscoring the diplomatic uncertainty despite the temporary truce.
