Bitcoin reached $75,000 on March 17 but dropped below $68,000 after escalating Iran war threats, notably Trump's ultimatum to Iran. The crypto market reacted sharply with over $1 billion liquidated, mainly from long positions. Oil prices above $100 keep inflation high, preventing Fed rate cuts and causing Bitcoin and XRP to move with traditional markets rather than as safe havens. The crypto market absorbs weekend shocks alone due to its 24/7 nature, leading to outsized price swings. A sustained drop in oil prices toward $80-$85 could revive bullish momentum for Bitcoin and XRP, but as long as oil remains high, inflation and rate pressures will dominate.
