Bitcoin's price surged above $81,000 amid escalating US-Iran geopolitical tensions, including US-Israeli strikes and a blockade of the Strait of Hormuz. This rise reflects growing investor interest in Bitcoin as a safe-haven asset during global market volatility. Prediction markets show strong confidence that Bitcoin will remain above $66,000 in early May, driven by ongoing geopolitical and macroeconomic uncertainties. Investors should watch US-Iran relations and Federal Reserve signals for future price movements.
