Traders have become reluctant to commit in either direction before the geopolitical outcome becomes clearer.<\/p>\n<p>A confirmed agreement could open the door for a move toward the $75,000 region, as easing tensions would likely support risk appetite across financial markets.<\/p>\n<p>Failure to reach a deal could shift sentiment in a different direction, with Bitcoin once again attracting attention as an alternative store of value during periods of uncertainty.<\/p>\n<p>Iranian officials, however, have yet to signal acceptance of the proposed terms and continue to insist that shipping routes will remain restricted until compensation and sanctions relief are addressed.<\/p>\n<p>That stance has kept upside moves in check, with repeated attempts to break higher running into resistance as sellers step in near recent highs.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Institutions continue buying<\/h2>\n<p>Underneath the surface, demand has remained firm, with accumulation continuing to absorb a significant portion of newly issued supply.<\/p>\n<p>Bitcoin treasury firm Strategy has continued to accumulate Bitcoin at a pace that exceeds the supply produced by miners.<\/p>\n<p>Since early March, Strategy has acquired 46,233 BTC.\u00a0 During the same time, miners have produced only about 16,200 BTC.\u00a0 This means Strategy has acquired nearly three times the fresh supply.<\/p>\n<p>At the same time, inflows into spot Bitcoin ETFs have also turned positive.<\/p>\n<p>Such conditions have limited the depth of pullbacks, even as technical setups point toward potential weakness.<\/p>\n<p>However, on the macro side, rising bond yields are introducing a competing force for capital.<\/p>\n<p>Yields on the United States 5-year Treasury have climbed to around 4% from 3.55%, signaling that investors are seeking higher returns from government debt amid ongoing uncertainty.<\/p>\n<p>Elevated energy prices and increased fiscal spending tied to military activity have contributed to inflation concerns, which in turn are influencing bond markets.<\/p>\n<p>A successful ceasefire could reinforce confidence in Treasuries, encouraging some investors to rotate away from alternative assets, including Bitcoin.<\/p>\n<p>For now, price remains caught between steady accumulation and external pressures, with the next move likely to hinge on developments in the geopolitical backdrop.<\/p>\n<p>    <!-- .cn-block-related-link --><\/p>\n<div class=\"cn-block-disclaimer\">\n<div class=\"cn-block-disclaimer__icon\">\n            <svg class=\"icon icon-info\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><use xlink:href=\"#icon-info\"><\/use> <\/svg>        <\/div>\n<p class=\"cn-block-disclaimer__content\">\n            Disclosure: This article does not represent investment advice.
