Bitcoin rose to $77,000 following increased betting on Polymarket, where traders have wagered over $154 million on a permanent US-Iran peace deal by the end of 2026. This surge in market activity comes as President Donald Trump described his decision on Iran as a "solid 50/50" between accepting a diplomatic agreement or resuming military strikes. Ongoing indirect negotiations and a fragile ceasefire have kept hopes alive for a deal that could ease sanctions and reopen the Strait of Hormuz, stabilizing global energy flows. The outcome remains uncertain, with Trump expected to decide by late May, while markets and traders adjust their positions based on the evolving diplomatic situation.
