Bitcoin hit a wall at recent highs and is now sliding back down. The price dropped below $62,500 as news of strikes from Iran added fresh pressure to an already nervous market. This move has caught some traders off guard after a brief period of optimism.

For the second straight day, Bitcoin is following the lead of the US stock market. When traditional stocks take a hit from geopolitical conflict, crypto often follows along. Investors are moving toward safer options while they wait to see how the situation unfolds.

All eyes are now on the charts to see where the price might find support. If the tension continues, we could see more swings in the price. Traders should stay alert as the market tries to find its footing while global tensions remain high.
