Bitcoin Nears 80,000 Amid Institutional Inflows and US-Iran Tensions

Bitcoin has approached the 80,000 mark, reaching a 12-week high amid steady institutional inflows totaling over $2 billion in nine days. The rise is supported by easing geopolitical tensions, particularly optimism around the US-Iran situation near the Strait of Hormuz, and sustained demand from large investors. Experts note that while the market shows cautious optimism, upcoming Federal Reserve decisions and geopolitical risks could influence Bitcoin's near-term trajectory, with a breakout above 80,000 seen as a key indicator.
