(Background supplement: Iran strongly denies secret negotiations with the U.S.! The US-Iran conflict may prolong, with Bitcoin breaking $73,000 and Ethereum rising above $2,100.)
Bitcoin (BTC) broke through the $74,000 level strongly today (5th), continuing to drive a noticeable increase in overall cryptocurrency market sentiment. Ethereum (ETH) also rose in tandem, with its price briefly surpassing $2,200.
Market analysis indicates that this rally is mainly driven by optimistic market sentiment, including continuous institutional inflows, a rebound in Bitcoin ETF trading volume, and some safe-haven capital shifting into Bitcoin amid Middle East geopolitical tensions. After breaking this psychological barrier, market analysts believe Bitcoin may further test higher resistance levels. However, the crypto market remains highly volatile, and investors should remain cautious of short-term profit-taking pressures, global economic data changes, and developments in the Middle East situation.

ETH drops 0.67% in 15 minutes: short-term profit-taking triggers a pullback
During the period from 2026-03-30 19:00 to 19:15 (UTC), the ETH spot return recorded -0.67%, with a price range of 2014.67 to 2032.63 USDT and a volatility amplitude of 0.88%. Trading in the market during this time window was active, with significant short-term fluctuations, drawing investor attention. Market data shows that, compared with the previous trading day, trading volume expanded in parallel, indicating that more capital battles were being concentrated and released in the short term. The main driving force behind this abnormal move was the proactive selling by short-term profit-taking positions and the concentrated execution of certain large sell orders.
