Bitcoin surged past $74,000 on May 29 after briefly dropping to a multiweek low of $72,395. The rebound followed reports of a tentative U.S.-Iran agreement to reopen the Strait of Hormuz, a key shipping route for 20% of the world's crude oil. This news also triggered a drop in crude prices and a rally in U.S. stocks. However, the deal still requires formal approval from both sides, and analysts are watching closely to see if Iran confirms the agreement in the next 48 hours. The development could ease global economic pressures by lowering energy costs if it holds.
