Summary
- Bitcoin retreated to $64,000 after hitting a monthly high of $65,500 on Wednesday as profit-taking and Iranian strikes on U.S. military bases in the Gulf triggered declines.
- Bears are leading price action across most altcoins, with negative cumulative volume deltas pointing to market-order selling. Open interest in XRP futures climbed to a 10-day high alongside a price decline, a combination that typically signals growing bearish exposure.
- MORPHO was the standout, rising 3.5% as it targets the $2.20 resistance level. Robinhood Chain memecoin CASHCAT drew attention as its market cap retreated to $91 million having hit $220 million in its first week.
