Bitcoin eyes $90,000 as geopolitical tensions and US economic data create market uncertainty.

Bitcoin's price is consolidating near $85,000 with potential to reach $90,000 if it breaks above resistance, supported by a possible bull flag pattern. However, geopolitical risks persist as Iran's closure of the Strait of Hormuz remains until seven US conditions are met, threatening prolonged shipping disruptions that could increase inflation pressure. Additionally, rising US Treasury yields and upcoming economic reports may test Bitcoin's momentum, with leveraged long positions facing liquidation risk if support fails. Renewed US demand is indicated by the recovering Coinbase Premium Index, but market direction remains uncertain amid these competing factors.

The story on Iran's Strait of Hormuz closure and Bitcoin's price near $85,000 provides context for cryptocurrency market activity. For readers following crypto markets, here is Pluang's snapshot as of Oct 04, 2026 18:02 WIB: out of 50 major cryptocurrencies, 36 rose and 13 fell. Among notable movers, SAND rose 4.57% to Rp1.334 with a typical hold time of 123 days and balanced buy/sell orders; ATOM increased 3.89% to Rp31.416 with 80% buy orders and a shorter hold time of 60 days; COTI gained 3.63% to Rp249 but saw 79% sell orders despite a long typical hold time of 121 days.
