The sell-off followed a dramatic escalation in the Middle East. On Sunday, June 22, the U.S. military launched airstrikes on three major Iranian nuclear sites, prompting Iran’s parliament to vote in favor of closing the Strait of Hormuz. Tensions soared further after President Donald Trump hinted at pursuing regime change in Iran, intensifying fear across crypto markets and sending Bitcoin sharply lower.
