比特币跌至67,371美元，中东紧张局势考验了关键的68,000美元支撑位

[kim]

Bitcoin (BTC-USD) is testing a critical support zone as geopolitical tensions begin to seep into broader market positioning, with the digital asset drifting toward a two-week low before stabilizing near a key technical level. Prices fell to as low as $67,371 in early Asia trading on Monday, the weakest level since March 9, before recovering toward the $68,000 range, which aligns with its 200-week exponential moving average. The move comes as risk sentiment softened following escalating tensions in the Middle East, after US President Donald Trump issued a 48-hour ultimatum threatening strikes on Iran's power infrastructure tied to the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz, with Tehran responding by warning it could target regional infrastructure if its energy assets are attacked.

The broader market reaction suggests a more cautious risk backdrop taking hold. Oil prices moved higher amid supply concerns, while gold dropped more than 3%, nearly wiping out its gains for the year and extending a 17% decline for the month. Equities across Asia opened lower, with Japanese and South Korean indexes declining alongside continued losses in MSCI's All Country World Index, while global bond yields edged higher. Bitcoin, which is up about 4% in March, appears to be trading more in line with risk assets during this stretch, potentially challenging its role as a defensive hedge during periods of geopolitical stress.

Some market participants continue to view the current price range as a potentially constructive entry point, particularly around the $68,000 level, which has historically acted as a key long-term trend line. Still, sentiment remains fragile. A Coinglass index shows extreme fear persisting for 25 of the past 30 days, while US-listed spot Bitcoin ETFs recorded $305.8 million in outflows over three days last week, even as total weekly flows remained positive at $95 million. The recent price behavior suggests Bitcoin could continue to respond to macro-driven signals in the near term, rather than moving independently as a traditional safe-haven asset.
