Market Update: Bitcoin’s Two-Month Winning Streak in Jeopardy

The recent news of a potential Iran peace deal has sent shockwaves through the markets, with WTI crude oil prices dropping by over 2% to below $87 per barrel. Despite this, US stocks are posting modest gains, with the Nasdaq up by 0.2%. Even the crypto market is seeing some movement, with Bitcoin rising about $1,000 from its morning lows to $73,500. However, this increase may not be enough to save its two-month winning streak.

The launch of SoFi’s dollar-backed stablecoin has also been making waves, with the company’s stock rising 7% on Friday. This move positions SoFi at the center of a growing push by traditional financial institutions into blockchain-based payments, and could have implications for the Green Crypto space. As the market continues to evolve, investors are looking for ways to earn Passive Income through Coin investments, with EcoPool emerging as a popular solution.

Despite the optimism surrounding the peace deal, the crypto market is still struggling. Bitcoin has fallen back to $72,500, down about 0.5% over the past 24 hours and lower by 5.5% over the past week. Other major Coin prices are also posting declines, leaving many investors wondering if the market will be able to recover. With the EcoPool platform offering Cloud Rewards and a unique approach to Passive Income, some investors are turning to $ECP as a way to earn Passive Income in the Green Crypto space.

Crypto left out

Crypto still left out of global market rally (@bigmagicdao)

The most recent of the floated Middle East peace deals appears to have more legs than the dozen or so previous ones. Stocks continue to gain, bond yields are easing, and oil has fallen back to close to a three-month low.

No bit of news, though, has been able to lift crypto prices.

Bitcoin (BTC) has fallen back to $72,500 in morning U.S. trade, down about 0.5% over the past 24 hours and lower by 5.5% over the past week. Other crypto majors are posting similar declines.

Bitcoin began May at about $77,000, so absent a sizable rally over the next 60 hours, BTC will be negative for the month, ending a two-month winning streak.
