Crude prices have ticked down over the past several hours, but remain up over the last week.<\/p>\n<p> <iframe src=\"https:\/\/markets.bitcoin.com\/crypto\/bitcoin\/embed\" width=\"100%\" style=\"max-height:500px;height:500px;border:none;overflow:hidden;border-radius:4px\" scrolling=\"no\" title=\"bitcoin market data\"><\/iframe> <\/p>\n<p>As shown on the daily chart, bitcoin initially appeared to recover from its Monday afternoon dip to $82,555\u2014its lowest price in the previous week\u2014when it jumped above $84,000. However, the cryptocurrency failed to hold that level, falling back below the threshold nearly three hours later. Price action then consolidated between $83,600 and $83,100 for several hours before a sharp sell-off drove it down to $82,807.<\/p>\n<p>After hitting this low, bitcoin rebounded to reclaim $83,500 by 2 a.m. ET before peaking at $84,545 nearly seven hours later. However, much like its earlier movement, the cryptocurrency quickly gave back those gains, trading near $83,150 at 12:25 p.m.<\/p>\n<p>Despite the volatility, liquidations on bitcoin were capped near $78 million on Tuesday, per data from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.coinglass.com\/liquidations\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Coinglass<\/a>, with wiped-out short positions exceeding $44 million. The situation across the broader crypto market was slightly different, however, as rallying altcoin prices erased $195 million in long bets compared to roughly $125 million in short bets.<\/p>\n<p>While bitcoin\u2019s recent rally was supercharged by <a href=\"https:\/\/home.treasury.gov\/news\/press-releases\/sb0607\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">U.S. Treasury liquidity maneuvers<\/a>, massive <a href=\"https:\/\/news.bitcoin.com\/bitcoin-etf\/bitcoin-etfs-add-31m-8-day-inflow-streak-hits-3b\/\">spot ETF inflows<\/a>, and <a href=\"https:\/\/news.bitcoin.com\/crypto-news\/bitcoin-fomo-hits-two-year-high-after-87k-breakout\/\">retail FOMO<\/a>, resurfacing geopolitical conflicts in the Middle East have brought that upward momentum to a halt. The sudden flight to traditional safe-haven assets and rising energy prices have created a macroeconomic headwind, effectively capping the cryptocurrency\u2019s near-term upside.<\/p>\n<h2>Macro Headwinds Counter Bullish Inflows<\/h2>\n<p>According to Utkarsh Ahuja, founder and managing partner at Moon Pursuit Capital, bitcoin\u2019s slide below $83,000\u2014coupled with higher Treasury yields, a stronger dollar, surging oil prices, and geopolitical uncertainty\u2014is more than just a crypto story.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI remain constructive on digital assets over the medium- and long-term, but crypto remains highly sensitive to liquidity and positioning, and tighter financial conditions feed through quickly. Leverage then amplifies those moves, which can turn a broader macro repricing into a much sharper crypto sell-off,\u201d Ahuja said.<\/p>\n<p>He added that if yields stay high and the dollar keeps strengthening, then there is room for further pressure. However, if those conditions reverse after leverage has been flushed out, then crypto can reprice quickly, Ahuja said.<\/p>\n<p>Remarking on bitcoin\u2019s failure to build on the rally that saw it breach the $87,000 mark last Monday, Kyle Rodda, senior financial market analyst at Capital.com, specifically pointed to <a href=\"https:\/\/news.bitcoin.com\/price-predictions\/does-oil-move-bitcoin-price-no-yes\/\">surging oil prices<\/a> as the likely cause.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe rise in crude prices is capping non-yielding assets, so bitcoin\u2019s rally has taken a bit of a pause,\u201d Rodda told Bitcoin.com News. \u201cAs long as that upside risk to energy persists, bitcoin is likely to struggle to recapture upside momentum. However, bitcoin\u2019s technicals look quite constructive. Price action seems to be signaling that the market is consolidating within a short-term uptrend.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/news.bitcoin.com\/market-updates\/bitcoin-price-holds-83k-oil-surge-limits-gains\/\">Source link <\/a><br \/>\n<br \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>(Originally posted on : Bitcoin News ) Key Takeaways Bitcoin fluctuated between $82,807 and $84,545 on Tuesday as Middle East conflict capped near-term market upside.
