Bitcoin price has slipped to $68,670, Ethereum price has dropped near $2,050, and over $336 million in liquidations have already been triggered as geopolitical tensions escalate. Bitcoin price today faced a sharp setback after a U.S. address in Iran triggered a global risk-off reaction, dragging prices down nearly 6% within hours. The move pushed BTC below the crucial resistance levels, with price now struggling under the $69,000 mark and failing to break the $72,500–$73,000 zone. Meanwhile, Ethereum price is holding near the $2,000–$2,050 range, a key psychological and structural level. If this zone fails to hold, downside could extend toward $1,900, increasing pressure across the altcoin market. Crypto Fear & Greed Index plunges to 29 (Fear), signaling sharp sentiment shift.
