Bitcoin Weekly Analysis – Rising Risks Amid Geopolitical Tension

140
Bitcoin (BTC/USD) is currently navigating a critical zone. The market shows signs of weakening structure, with price failing to make higher highs and now hovering near a key support area within an ascending channel.

My projection indicates a potential retest of the mid-range support around $85,000. However, if this level fails to hold—especially under the weight of macroeconomic and geopolitical uncertainty—we may see a deeper correction toward the $70,000 zone and possibly even the long-term trendline support near $60,000.

One of the most concerning external factors influencing the market sentiment right now is the escalating conflict between Israel and Iran. With Israel reportedly conducting airstrikes over the weekend and Iran threatening retaliation, the situation is rapidly intensifying. Such geopolitical instability tends to spark fear in global markets, often pushing risk-on assets like Bitcoin into sharp selloffs as liquidity shifts into safer instruments like gold or the U.S. dollar.

Even though institutional players such as BlackRock continue to accumulate Bitcoin, likely due to long-term conviction and ETF exposure, retail sentiment is highly sensitive. In scenarios where war escalates or expands to involve other nations, panic selling by retail traders could trigger cascade liquidations, potentially fulfilling this bearish projection.

In summary, while Bitcoin remains technically within a bullish channel, the structure is fragile. A clean break below the highlighted support zone could usher in a mid-cycle correction, especially if geopolitical tensions worsen. Risk management is paramount in the current environment.
