Laura Shin: Bitcoin reaches 2-week high as U.S.-Iran deal eases rate fears
Bitcoin surges as U.S.-Iran deal reopens strait

Laura Shin reports that Bitcoin surged to a two-week high, reaching $65,844. The climb follows news that the U.S.-Iran deal has reopened the Strait of Hormuz, leading to a 4% decline in oil prices, easing rate fears and boosting risk assets. Ether gained 2.5%, Solana rose 3.6%, XRP added 3.2%, and HYPE jumped 7.5%.

Shin previously noted that Strategy sold $2.5 million in Bitcoin, breaking its long-standing 'never sell' policy. In a separate report, she covered how CFTC oversight differentiates derivatives trading on platforms such as Kalshi and Polymarket from gambling activity under U.S. regulation. These developments have drawn attention to both institutional strategies and regulatory distinctions in the digital asset sector.
