📉 Bitcoin Slips to ~$66,000 as Geopolitical Tensions Trigger Risk‑Off Mood

Bitcoin prices fell during Asian trading as escalating conflict in the Middle East — including a widening U.S.–Israel conflict with Iran — sparked a broad risk‑off wave across global markets.

📊 Market Moves:

• Bitcoin dipped to around $66,000, trading 2% lower amid heightened uncertainty.

• Traders sold risk assets following military escalation, pushing BTC lower before minor stabilization.

• Altcoins like Ethereum, XRP and Solana also slid as investors shunned high‑beta crypto.

💡 Market Insight:

Amid war‑related risk aversion, Bitcoin is acting more like a risk asset correlated with equities, rather than a safe haven, as traders reposition into traditional hedges.
