Bitcoin has reached $71,000 today, remaining under pressure following new geopolitical upheavals. Ethereum has also dropped to around $2,195, where it trades at the time of writing.

The cryptocurrency market, known for its inherent volatility, saw a sharp decline yesterday, impacting leading digital assets such as Bitcoin and Ethereum. This crash occurred amid news of the failure of the lengthy 14-hour negotiations between the United States and Iran, which did not lead to any agreements.

An official statement released after the meeting emphasized that the American side failed to achieve the desired results. It also noted that the situation is much more unfavorable for Iran than for America. This statement subtly hints that the US's key demands went unanswered, creating a new wave of uncertainty.

The central sticking points turned out to be two critically important issues: the status of the Strait of Hormuz and questions related to Iran's nuclear program, specifically the level of uranium enrichment. These points, which Washington marked as "red lines," were ones Tehran was unable or unwilling to compromise on. The refusal to make concessions on these issues triggered negative market reactions, including a sharp decline in the value of Bitcoin and Ethereum.

Regarding intraday strategy in the cryptocurrency market, I will continue to look for major dips in Bitcoin and Ethereum, anticipating the continuation of a long-term bull market that has not yet vanished.

As for short-term trading, the strategy and conditions are described below.
