Trump failed to achieve peace, and cryptocurrency growth slowed—what’s next
Bitcoin rose by 1.81% from May 1 to May 8, 2026. During the week, the largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization climbed above $82,500. This allowed BTC to reach a four-month high. The last time Bitcoin traded at higher prices was in January.
The decline and growth of BTC continue to be directly dependent on how the Middle East conflict develops. The move above $80,000 was driven by Trump announcing the start of Operation “Freedom” (Project Freedom). American troops were supposed to escort commercial ships passing through the Strait of Hormuz.$BTC #GateSquareMayTradingShare
