Should we sell before the weekend? Bitcoin stumbled to $103,900 before rebounding to $105,000 as news broke of Israeli airstrikes hitting Iranian nuclear and missile facilities, including those in Tehran.
The escalation marks one of the most direct confrontations in years. Prime Minister Netanyahu declared that the strikes won’t stop “until Iran’s nuclear ambitions are completely dismantled.”

Markets don’t wait for missiles to land. As Israel strikes Iranian nuclear and missile sites, Bitcoin tumbled to $103,162 before clawing back slightly, still 2% in the red over the past 24 hours.

Israeli airstrikes on Tehran, deemed unlikely on Polymarket just days ago, wiped out bullish positions across prediction markets. Now the real gamble is whether we’ll fall further.
Iran’s prior assault didn’t result in Israeli casualties, but this time, it’s different. Tehran was hit directly, marking a dangerous new phase in the conflict.
