Bitcoin fluctuated between $76,200 and $77,245 on May 19, 2026, stabilizing near $76,750 as geopolitical tensions between the US and Iran increased. The market saw a drop in crypto liquidations to $175 million, with long traders losing $17.3 million, a significant decrease from the previous day. Renewed conflict fears erased earlier gains in global markets, pushing major US indices lower and causing oil prices to hover near $105 per barrel. Investors remain cautious as a looming deadline for an Iran deal threatens further market volatility.
