The price <span>volatility<\/span>, which Coinglass data showed exceeded 2.63%, resulted in approximately $56.8 million in <span>bitcoin<\/span> short liquidations over 12 hours, compared to $38 million in longs.<\/p>\n<p>As reported by several media outlets, Iran delivered its proposal via Pakistani mediators, suggesting an extended ceasefire and the reopening of the strait in exchange for a pause in the U.S. naval blockade. While the U.S. Military\u2019s initial strikes and pressure campaign may not have achieved desired results, the naval blockade of Iranian ports has seemingly turned the tables by depriving the country of a vital revenue source.<\/p>\n<p>By seeking an end to the blockade and an extension of the ceasefire, Iran signaled it may be ready to make a giant concession to end a war that has devastated the global economy. However, some observers noted that Tehran\u2019s proposals appear to relegate a key issue that led President Donald Trump to launch strikes: the nuclear program. The Strait of Hormuz and the U.S. blockade, they say, are products of the war that both parties might use to exit a conflict that lacks a clear off-ramp for the U.S.<\/p>\n<p>While Middle East tensions have fueled <span>bitcoin<\/span>\u2019s rise in recent weeks, some analysts believe the price action indicates the <span>cryptocurrency<\/span> is exiting a <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bitcoin.com\/get-started\/bull-market-vs-bear-market\/\" class=\"lar_link lar_link_outgoing\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">bear market<\/a>.
