What is holding Bitcoin at $73,000?

Geopolitical jitters from the Iran ceasefire and Strait of Hormuz issues, plus oil price swings, are capping rallies—analysts say $75K clearance needed for bull confirmation.

Why are ETH, SOL, and DOGE sliding?

They're tied to Bitcoin's range-bound action; failed $73K breaks trigger altcoin sympathy sells amid cautious markets.

Will the ceasefire boost crypto prices?

Maybe—if it holds and Hormuz fully reopens, expect a $73K retest with upside; otherwise, dips to $68K-$70K loom.
