The U.S. hit Iran for the third time this week and Tehran has reportedly closed the Strait of Hormuz again.

  • Bitcoin traded around $63,800 with only slight daily moves despite new U.S. airstrikes on Iran and Tehran’s declaration that it had closed the Strait of Hormuz.
  • Other major cryptocurrencies, including ether, XRP and dogecoin, also saw only fractional price changes, continuing a muted pattern of reaction to Middle East tensions.
  • Markets for oil, stocks and bonds are shut for the weekend, leaving bitcoin as one of the few assets pricing the latest escalation in real time, with a fuller reaction in crude expected when trading resumes Monday.
