#SummerCreationCamp #BTC Bitcoin retreated to the $BTC level due to tensions with Iran and concerns about interest rates. On Monday, Bitcoin fell slightly as escalating US-Iran tensions and rising interest rates pushed markets away from cryptocurrencies. The cryptocurrency, which showed little movement over the weekend, continued its decline. The world's largest cryptocurrency fell 0.9% to the $XRP level. Transactions were recorded at 09:10. Bitcoin continues to remain in the trading range seen for much of the year. Confidence in cryptocurrencies remains weak. Bitcoin is also trading 50% below its record high in October and is experiencing significant losses this year. US-Iran tensions escalate after weekend attacks The increasing tension between the US and Iran continues to weigh on risk appetite. The two countries carried out reciprocal attacks over the weekend. The US appears to be expanding the scope of its attacks against Iran. Tehran retaliated by continuing its attacks on neighboring Gulf countries and targeting American bases in the region. Following these developments, oil prices rose sharply. The aggressive stance of the US and Iran has halted maritime shipping in the Strait of Hormuz. Rising oil prices have heightened concerns about energy-related inflation. This could push the Federal Reserve to raise interest rates later in the year. The central bank is expected to leave interest rates unchanged at its July meeting. However, markets are on high alert for strong signals from policymakers. Recently, several Fed members have warned that raising interest rates may be necessary to combat persistent inflation. Higher interest rates are negative for non-yielding assets like Bitcoin. Cryptocurrencies are also negatively affected by this. Michael Saylor warns against Bitcoin blockchain upgrade. Michael Saylor, President of Strategy and a Bitcoin supporter, issued a warning on Sunday against a proposed software upgrade for the Bitcoin blockchain. The upgrade aims to temporarily restrict the blockchain from holding large amounts of non-monetary data, including Ordinals. It seeks to refocus on prioritizing the improvement of Bitcoin's monetary nature. Saylor voiced his concerns in a social media post, saying it could invalidate some blocks. He argued that this should only be reserved for serious malfunctions. He noted that the proposal does not fix known critical bugs. Supporters of the upgrade think differently. They argue that the upgrade cleans spam from the blockchain. They say it reduces the unnecessary burden on node operators.
