Yesterday's Crypto Rebound: BTC Spikes to $70K on Short Squeeze Post-Iran Shock — Fear at 10–14, Momentum Shift? 📈⚡
Binance fam, Monday madness after weekend geopolitics drama! 🔥
Yesterday's recap (March 2, 2026 GMT):
$BTC ~$68,700–$68,900 close (high $70,044, low $65,303; +~4–5% intraday surge on short-covering + rebound from sub-$63k Iran panic lows; range chop $63k–$72k).

$ETH ~$1,950–$1,970 (up 1–2%, eyeing $2k barrier).

Market cap ~$2.28T–$2.33T (up ~1–2.6% daily recovery); alts strong (SOL/ETH leading bounce).
Sentiment: Fear & Greed ~10–14 (extreme fear, tiny unwind from 5 lows — capitulation easing?).
Drivers: U.S./Israel-Iran strikes fallout (Khamenei confirmed dead?); short squeeze fueled spike (not new buying), oil up on tensions, but crypto absorbed shock fast; ETF/institutional notes mixed.
Today/near-term outlook:
Hold $67k–$68k for continuation toward $70k+ (bullish if reclaimed). Sub-$65k risks $62k–$60k retest on thin liquidity/geopolitics. Extreme fear + oversold often = bounce setups historically, but headline risks linger. Long-term: Adoption grinds on.
My take: Classic fear unwind/short squeeze post-shock — feels like momentum shifting, but stay nimble on news/oil flow. Diamond hands shine here!
