Too much time wasted on traveling, too much work! Besides which, there is tremendous infighting and confusion within their \u201cleadership.\u201d Nobody knows who is in charge, including them,\u201d <a href=\"https:\/\/truthsocial.com\/@realDonaldTrump\/posts\/116466283877725023\" target=\"_blank\">reads<\/a> his message.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Nevertheless, the POTUS added that the US has \u201call the cards,\u201d while Iran has \u201cnone.\u201d However, if Iran wants to talk, \u201call they have to do is call.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s worth noting that minutes before Trump\u2019s statement on his social media platform, reports emerged that Iran\u2019s foreign minister had departed Pakistan without meeting with the US reps.<\/p>\n<p>Almost all major announcements on the US-Iran front have eventually led to price volatility for bitcoin and the crypto market. In this case, BTC was rejected at nearly $78,000 and driven south by almost a grand.<\/p>\n<p>However, the real volatility typically arrives on Sunday evenings and Monday mornings when the legacy spot and futures markets start to open. Unless there\u2019s any other major activity, this lack of progress on the permanent peace front is likely to put more selling pressure on the market.<\/p>\n<p>During the business week, BTC <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/bitcoin-btc-neared-80k-as-the-us-and-iran-extended-the-ceasefire-your-weekly-crypto-recap\/\">jumped<\/a> to a multi-month high of almost $80,000 after Iran and the US extended the ceasefire.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"you-may-also-like\" class=\"heading-4\">You may also like:<\/h3>\n<div class=\"code-block code-block-9\" style=\"margin: 8px 0; clear: both;\">\n<div><center><span style=\"font-size:11px; color: gray;\">SPECIAL OFFER (Exclusive)<\/span><\/center><br \/>\n<b>Binance Free $600 (CryptoPotato Exclusive): <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/binance600f\/\" rel=\"nofollow\">Use this link<\/a> to register a new account and receive $600 exclusive welcome offer on Binance<\/b> (<a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/binance600d\/\">full details<\/a>).<\/p>\n<p><b>LIMITED OFFER for CryptoPotato readers at Bybit: <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/pl\/bybit24\/\" rel=\"nofollow\">Use this link<\/a> to register and open a $500 FREE position on any coin!<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-style: italic; color: #808080;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">Disclaimer: Information found on CryptoPotato is those of writers quoted.
