The global market is on high alert after the latest statement from U.S. President Donald Trump, who said he will decide when iran war ends. The comments have added a new layer of uncertainty to already volatile markets, with investors now asking how the situation could influence cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin, Ethereum, and XRP.
Trump Will Decide When the Iran War Ends
During a brief phone interview, when asked about the timeline for the ongoing U.S.-Israel and Iran war, Donald Trump said the United States would have the “final say” on when the military operation against Iran ends.
“We’ll make final call to end operation ‘at right time’; says he and PM ‘worked together’ against Islamic Republic: ‘We’ve destroyed a country that would have destroyed Israel.”
When asked if he alone would decide when the war ends or if Benjamin Netanyahu would also have a say, Trump said the decision would be a “mutual” one taken together with the Israeli Prime Minister.
Lastly, when asked if Israel could continue the war even after the U.S. stops its strikes, Trump said he believes Israel would not need to continue the war once the U.S. halts its attacks.
Bitcoin Holds Despite Liquidations Risk Rises
Since the war began, the crypto market has lost billions in value. Bitcoin has dropped from around $79K to nearly $68K.
Despite the tension, the market has not seen major panic selling. Further CoinGlass data shows 99,443 traders liquidated in 24 hours, with total losses reaching $396.55 million
Bitcoin accounted for around $150 million of those liquidations, while Ethereum saw $80.8 million and Solana about $18.8 million.
What Next For Bitcoin If War Continues?
If the conflict between the U.S., Israel, and Iran continues, Bitcoin could face a period of higher volatility. Keeping these factors in mind, crypto trader Captain Faibik believes Bitcoin may be preparing for another bearish rally.
After a sharp drop, Bitcoin started moving inside a small rising channel. This suggests the market is taking a short pause while the overall trend still looks weak.
If Bitcoin breaks below the channel support, the bearish pattern could confirm further downside movement. In that case, Faibik expects the price to fall toward the $55,000 level.
However, if Bitcoin breaks above the upper trendline, the bearish setup weakens, and the potential price drop may delay
