After a sluggish weekend but a big promise from Trump about a deal between the US and Iran to be announced on Sunday, the POTUS indeed outlined such an agreement from both sides that was expected to be signed by the end of the week.<\/p>\n<p>BTC jumped immediately, going from under $64,000 to $66,000 and then to over $67,200 on Monday morning. However, its rally was halted at this point, and the asset was rejected twice at $67,000. More volatility ensued before and after the first FOMC meeting with Kevin Warsh leading the Fed. Bitcoin pumped to $66,400 before it was <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/ripples-xrp-falls-below-critical-support-bitcoin-btc-drops-after-fomc-market-watch\/\">driven south<\/a> to under $64,000 after the Fed <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/btc-price-drops-as-new-fed-chair-kevin-warsh-holds-rates-steady\/\">maintained<\/a> the rates and Warsh was quite hawkish.<\/p>\n<p>The cryptocurrency fell further amid mounting fears that Strategy might start selling BTC soon to under $62,400 on Friday. Although the promised deal has not been signed yet, bitcoin still jumped toward $63,500 as of now, perhaps driven by the ceasefire <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/bitcoin-slides-as-warsh-stays-hawkish-and-markets-await-a-lasting-us-iran-agreement-weekly-recap\/\">announced<\/a> by Israel and Lebanon.<\/p>\n<p>Its market capitalization has climbed to $1.270 trillion on CG, while its dominance over the alts barely hinges above 56%.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1440517\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1440517\" style=\"width: 1835px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/BTCUSD-June-20.png\"><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1440517\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">BTCUSD June 20.
