With Bitcoin hovering right around $77,410, the market is definitively in a "wait-and-see" digestion phase after the mid-May Iran-related liquidation flush to $76,000. Your focus on the US-Iran friction and the Strait of Hormuz is spot on. However, the narrative is rapidly evolving past a simple "risk-off" liquidation:
The "Hormuz Proposal": Rumors and headlines regarding Iran proposing Bitcoin-based systems for clearing maritime logistics or bypassing trade routes are actively forcing the market to view BTC as a localized geopolitical release valve, rather than just a high-beta tech asset.
The Treasury Yield Pressure: Part of what capped the bounce at $81,500 earlier this month was the macroeconomic double-whammy of rising US Treasury yields and elevated oil prices.
