Bitcoin Price Hopes for Breakout Amid US-Iran Ceasefire

Bitcoin's price is currently trading near $71,800, just below the upper boundary of a consolidating channel that has been limiting its growth since early February. This has sparked hopes for a breakout, which would signal a bullish move ahead.

The US-Iran ceasefire has contributed to the improved risk appetite, with US equity futures surging and crude oil prices falling sharply. This sentiment is also reflected in the broader crypto market, with a positive bias observed in momentum readings.
