Crypto Markets React as Trump Signals Iran War End

President Trump says the US wants to end the Iran war quickly, crypto market, including Bitcoin is reacting positively to the news, and Hyperliquid is pumping.

US President Donald Trump has announced an imminent end to the Iran war, and Bitcoin is benefiting from this with a daily gain of around 3.5 percent. BTC is trading at around $70,000 on Tuesday morning. Bitcoin ETFs had an encouraging start to the new trading week on Monday with an inflow of $167 million.

Crypto update: Bitcoin and Ethereum Rise Amid Global News, Altcoins Follow

Strategy, the world’s largest Bitcoin company, continues its buying spree: $1.28 billion was spent on 17,994 Bitcoins, according to a mandatory filing. Strategy financed the massive Bitcoin purchase by issuing new common stock and its interest-bearing preferred stock. The problem: Strategy has a gaping hole in its balance sheet. On average, the company has paid almost $76,000 per BTC for its current holdings of 738,731 Bitcoins – significantly more than the current price. Skeptics see this as a house of cards, which could severely damage Bitcoin if it collapses.

Ethereum (ETH) has climbed to just over $2,000, a 2 percent daily gain. Ethereum ETFs reported a $51 million outflow of capital on Monday, a stark contrast to Bitcoin ETFs.

Bitmine Immersion, the largest Ethereum company, shares similarities with Strategy. It increased its ETH reserves by almost 61,000 and now holds a good 4.5 million Ethereum, currently valued at $9 billion. In a statement, CEO Tom Lee proclaimed the imminent end of the “mini crypto winter”—but experts are concerned because Bitmine Immersion is carrying unrealized losses of around $7.6 billion.

The small Bitcoin upswing is also boosting many altcoins

The crypto day’s winner is Hyperliquid (HYPE), with a 10 percent gain. The decentralized crypto exchange attributes this to rising trading volumes, as gold, silver, and stocks have now joined the Hyperliquid platform. Crypto celebrity Arthur Hayes has released a new HYPE forecast , predicting a target price of $150 by August – roughly four times the current Hyperliquid price of around $35. Last fall, Hayes’s “pump and dump” strategy had made him unpopular within the HYPE community.

The biggest loser of the day is TRUMP, the official meme coin of the US president. A 4.5 percent drop to $2.90 has brought TRUMP down, leaving it 96 percent below its record high from its debut week in January 2025. TRUMP is experiencing the typical fate of meme coins that only shine for a short time.

The sentiment barometer for the crypto markets has climbed to “fear,” having previously indicated “extreme fear.” Whether this is a good omen remains to be seen.

The Stuttgart Stock Exchange is pleased to announce a partnership with Nasdaq. The US exchange stated in a press release that the collaboration will focus on tokenized securities, a trending topic in the crypto industry. Seturion, part of the Stuttgart Stock Exchange, will provide the technological infrastructure; blockchain-based stock trading promises 24/7 availability, high speed, and low fees.
