Bitcoin traded slightly higher near $77,200, maintaining above its 50-day average, supported by a sharp 5% drop in oil prices due to potential reopening of the Strait of Hormuz. This oil price decline lifted Asian equities, with major indexes in India, Japan, and Australia gaining. The market optimism is linked to progress in U.S.-Iran peace negotiations, which could ease geopolitical tensions affecting oil supply. However, caution remains as over $2 billion in outflows from crypto ETFs in the past two weeks suggest some selling pressure, and traders await a finalized peace deal for sustained crypto gains.
