Bitcoin Rebounds Above $105K Amid Ceasefire News

Bitcoin’s price rebounded above $105,000 after news of an Iran-Israel ceasefire, reversing a weekend drop triggered by U.S. missile strikes on Iranian nuclear facilities. The Bitcoin Volatility Index hit its lowest level since October 2023 at 39.15, signaling expectations of stable prices around $105,000 ahead of Friday’s monthly options expiry. However, derivatives traders remain wary, with Bitcoin perpetual futures open interest plunging by 17,394 BTC in 24 hours—the steepest drop since August 2024. Analysts note a low-leverage environment, suggesting short-term price stability, but geopolitical tensions keep short-dated implied volatility elevated.
