Bitcoin rebounded back above $81,000 as investor risk-on sentiment improved following signals from Iran that it is reviewing a U.S.-backed proposal aimed at ending the war between the two countries. The move came alongside a third straight day of declines in crude oil prices, which has helped lift appetite for higher-risk assets across crypto markets.
After falling more than 2% from a 4-month high of $82,751 on Wednesday to an intraday low of $80,771, Bitcoin (BTC) regained the $81K level by press time, trading above $81,500.
The rebound was supported by progress toward a potential U.S.-Iran ceasefire that is currently described as “under review,” with the proposal also intended to ease disruptions at the Strait of Hormuz.
Reports said Iran is considering a peace deal presented by the U.S. through Pakistani intermediaries and is expected to issue a formal response within the coming days. The memorandum of understanding is described as a one-page framework covering a ceasefire and the restoration of trade routes, while excluding sensitive discussions related to Iran’s nuclear program, which would reportedly be addressed later.
Despite the optimism, U.S. President Donald Trump said a deal has not yet been finalized and indicated the U.S. would continue attacks on Iran if it does not comply with the proposed terms.
Crude oil prices fell for a third consecutive day on Thursday, reinforcing confidence in riskier assets. WTI crude futures were reported near $93 per barrel, while Brent oil fell about 1% to $100.
Safe-haven assets showed volatility as some investors rotated away from traditional hedges and back into Bitcoin and other crypto assets. Gold rose more than 1.2%, while silver gained nearly 4%.
The Coinbase premium fell to a negative reading, suggesting a slight cooling in demand from U.S. institutional buyers.
On the daily chart, Bitcoin has been trading within an ascending parallel channel pattern since late March, with higher highs and higher lows over the past several weeks.
The Supertrend remained green, indicating bullish momentum is still in control. In addition, the MACD formed a bullish crossover, pointing to increasing short-term buying pressure.
Traders are watching the $84,000–$85,000 area as the next resistance zone. Meanwhile, $80,000 is described as the key psychological level that must hold to prevent a deeper correction.
Premium gym chains are entering a “golden era” that is ending or already in decline, as rising operating costs collide with shifting consumer preferences toward more flexible, community-based ways to exercise. Long-term memberships are shrinking, margins are pressured by higher rents and facility expenses, and competition from smaller, more personalized…
