$Bitcoin did not experience intense selling pressure despite the surge originating from Iran. The price fluctuated around $80,000, with declines remaining limited.

During the recent conflict, pullbacks were smaller than in previous geopolitical shocks. This supported the rising base formation.

The market showed a rapid recovery after falling to the $79,500 level. Institutional demand and #ETF inflows offset the sell-off.

During the same period, a structural step was taken in the mining ecosystem. Seven large pools joined the Stratum V2 working group.

These pools represent approximately seventy-five percent of global hash power. Participants include Foundry, AntPool, F2Pool, SpiderPool, and MARA Pool.

Stratum V2 transfers the authority to create block templates from pool operators to individual miners. The protocol offers end-to-end encryption and more efficient communication.

This transition is seen as a significant improvement in long-term network decentralization and security. It increases the transparency of the mining infrastructure while raising the potential for operational efficiency.
