BTC USD faces major battles today as Iran tensions flare with Trump proportional strikes while hinting at a deal days away. CPI data will also drop today amid energy spikes. The escalation has already triggered over $400 million in liquidations, pressuring BTC USD at the $61,000 level. Then add SpaceX IPO oversubscription 2 days away. After proportional strikes, Trump hinted at a potential deal “days away,” yet the Iran escalation sent BTC USD sliding from recent highs. Over $400 million in liquidations hit the market, with more than $300 million coming from long positions. The temporary calm from the earlier de-escalation fractured quickly.

People peg the IPO as the next catalyst despite short-term selling pressure. BTC USD dipped to $61k as some raised funds for the oversubscribed debut, yet Lee sees it as bullish long-term. As of today, the oversubscription has reached a $250 billion for a company with a $75 billion valuation.

Despite near-term fears from Iran, friction, looming CPI data, and SpaceX’s IPO reallocation, BTC USD has not fundamentally changed, nor has crypto. Institutional accumulation and a bullish stance on the SpaceX IPO bring confidence to the fragile market. Geopolitical scare remains temporary while adoption milestones accelerate legitimacy. Cooler CPI could bring a liquidity relief rally, pushing BTC USD toward $65k as higher-for-longer fears ease. SpaceX IPO success would strengthen bull market narratives, drawing capital that likely flows into crypto. The path forward looks bullish .
