Bitcoin briefly reclaimed $79,000 late Sunday following reports that Iran had submitted a proposal to the U.S. aimed at reopening the Strait of Hormuz. Market data show the cryptocurrency rose from just under $78,000 to a session high of $79,490 within three hours. It stayed above $79,000 until the early hours of April 27, when it plummeted to $77,500, effectively wiping out the gains made hours earlier.
The retreat erased more than $30 billion from bitcoin’s value and dragged its market capitalization back to $1.55 trillion. The price volatility, which Coinglass data showed exceeded 2.63%, resulted in approximately $56.8 million in bitcoin short liquidations over 12 hours, compared to $38 million in longs.
As reported by several media outlets, Iran delivered its proposal via Pakistani mediators, suggesting an extended ceasefire and the reopening of the strait in exchange for a pause in the U.S. naval blockade. While the U.S. Military’s initial strikes and pressure campaign may not have achieved desired results, the naval blockade of Iranian ports has seemingly turned the tables by depriving the country of a vital revenue source.
By seeking an end to the blockade and an extension of the ceasefire, Iran signaled it may be ready to make a giant concession to end a war that has devastated the global economy. However, some observers noted that Tehran’s proposals appear to relegate a key issue that led President Donald Trump to launch strikes: the nuclear program. The Strait of Hormuz and the U.S. blockade, they say, are products of the war that both parties might use to exit a conflict that lacks a clear off-ramp for the U.S.
While Middle East tensions have fueled bitcoin’s rise in recent weeks, some analysts believe the price action indicates the cryptocurrency is exiting a bear market. Michaël van de Poppe, founder of MN Fund, said a breakout above $84,000 and $87,000 would be evidence that “we’re done with the bear market.”
If you look at the statistical impact of the previous crash to $60,000, there’s been only one scenario where the markets have hit new lows: the fourth quarter of 2022 during the FTX collapse,” van de Poppe said.
Although he conceded a cataclysmic event similar to FTX could happen again, van de Poppe asserted that, statistically, a new all-time high is typically reached in less than 12 months following such a collapse.
As of 3:30 a.m. EDT on April 27, market data show bitcoin has gained approximately 15% since the start of the month. The rally has helped narrow the cryptocurrency’s year-to-date losses to 11%, down from a peak of more than 20% seen at the end of March

Strategy’s Bitcoin stash sits at roughly $64.44 billion — and it didn’t grow this week.
A Pause After 4 Straight Weeks
Michael Saylor, executive chairman of Strategy, confirmed Sunday that the company made no Bitcoin purchases during the current week, snapping a four-week buying run.
The announcement came through his usual channel: the “Orange Dots” chart posted to X, which tracks every purchase the company has ever made.
Followers have come to read the chart as a signal of fresh buying. This time, the message underneath told a different story — “No buys this week.
He did not leave it there. Saylor added that the firm would resume purchases the following week, writing simply, “Back to work next week.
Scale Of Recent Purchases Had Already Been Shrinking
The pause follows a noticeable slowdown in the size of Strategy’s acquisitions. According to reports, the firm picked up 3,273 BTC last Monday at an average price of $77,906 per coin, totaling roughly $255 million.
That figure sounds large on its own, but it represents a near 90% drop from the $2.54 billion purchase made on April 20.
Strategy’s total Bitcoin holdings now stand at 818,334 BTC, acquired at an average cost of $75,537 per coin.
