US President Donald Trump announced a complete ceasefire between Israel and Iran, potentially ending the 12-day war, late on Monday.

Trump took to his social media network, Truth Social, to state, “It has been fully agreed by and between Israel and Iran that there will be a Complete and Total CEASEFIRE.”

Iranian officials earlier confirmed that Tehran had agreed to a ceasefire, reported Reuters, which added that the country’s foreign minister said “there would be no cessation of hostilities unless Israel stopped its attacks.”

Bitcoin Reacts

Bitcoin prices have surged around 6% since the announcement a few hours ago, climbing from just over $100,000 to come just shy of $106,000 during Asian trading on Tuesday morning.

The asset cooled a little, falling back to just over $105,000 at the time of writing. It has now recovered all losses over the past few days and returned to its range-bound channel.

BTC fell below six figures for the first time since early May on Monday following US airstrikes on Iranian nuclear facilities. However, it did not stay below $100,000 for very long.

S&P 500 futures also rose marginally late on Monday, suggesting traders expect the US stock market to open with gains on Tuesday.

MN Capital founder Michaël van de Poppe said that now the sounds of World War III are fading, “macroeconomic tables should be shifting.” The dollar will continue falling, the Renminbi will break out, gold consolidates, and rates are going to fall. Meanwhile, “Bitcoin and crypto go into the biggest bull cycle ever.”
