Bitcoin has successfully defended its support levels, climbing back above the $64,000 mark after a period of intense volatility. The recent price action followed a roller coaster week that saw BTC dip as low as $62,200 before bulls stepped in to drive a recovery. Market sentiment is currently shifting as reports suggest a potential deal regarding the Strait of Hormuz could be announced today.

While major assets like Ethereum, BNB, and Solana remain relatively flat, the altcoin market is showing mixed results. Tokens like XRP, XMR, and XLM are seeing losses, but ZEC and HYPE are standing out with significant price increases. Zcash rose by more than 6.5 percent to trade at $520, and the Hyperliquid token hit $58.

Investors are also noting that PUMP has seen a double digit gain, rising 12 percent to reach $0.0025. With the total crypto market capitalization adding $30 billion in the last 24 hours, the total valuation now sits at $2.26 trillion. Bitcoin dominance continues to climb, currently accounting for over 57 percent of the entire market.

Moving forward, traders will likely watch for official updates on the geopolitical situation in the Middle East, as this news has clearly influenced market confidence. If Bitcoin maintains its position above the $64,000 threshold, it may find the strength to challenge higher resistance levels later this week.
