The following week was somewhat sluggish, as the asset spent it trading sideways between $61,000 and $64,000. It moved mostly when there was news about the war in the Middle East.<\/p>\n<p>As such, Trump&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/will-btc-rocket-if-trump-delivers-on-his-iran-deal-promise-this-sunday\/\">promise<\/a> on Saturday that the US and Iran would announce a deal on Sunday brought some hope in the market. However, there were <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/btc-eth-xrp-progress-at-risk-as-trump-condemns-israels-latest-attacks\/\">new attacks<\/a> from Israel on the following day against Lebanon, which put further doubt on the already fragile situation.<\/p>\n<p>Nevertheless, the POTUS indeed announced a deal with Iran on Sunday evening, which <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/bitcoin-price-jumps-above-65k-as-trump-announces-official-deal-with-iran\/\">sent<\/a> BTC higher immediately. The asset traded just under $64,000 before it shot up to $66,000. It kept climbing on Monday and briefly jumped past $67,000 for the first time in two weeks.<\/p>\n<p>Although it has been stopped there, it still trades above $66,000 now. Its market cap has climbed to $1.330 trillion, while its dominance over the alts is at 56.5%.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1440056\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1440056\" style=\"width: 1835px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/BTCUSD-June-16.png\"><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1440056\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">BTCUSD June 16.
