Bitcoin rocketed on the news, going from under $64,000 to over $67,000 within a day. However, it couldn\u2019t maintain its run and dipped to its starting point ahead of the latest FOMC meeting.<\/p>\n<p>Before and after the Fed\u2019s expected announcement of keeping the rates <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/bitcoin-slides-as-warsh-stays-hawkish-and-markets-await-a-lasting-us-iran-agreement-weekly-recap\/\">unchanged<\/a>, the cryptocurrency went to $66,400 before it plunged by four grand, especially since the new Chairman of the central bank remained hawkish.<\/p>\n<p>The bulls finally intervened at this point and helped BTC recover some ground. The asset climbed to $63,000-$64,000 over the weekend and remained there for the most part aside from a brief deviation to $63,200 and $64,800. That came after the new <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/is-bitcoin-and-peace-in-trouble-as-trump-warns-iran-of-fresh-strikes\/\">threats from Trump<\/a> against Iran and the conclusion of the meeting between the two sides in Switzerland.<\/p>\n<p>Nevertheless, BTC has returned to $64,000 as of press time. Its market cap is at $1.285 trillion, while its dominance over the alts is still at 56.2% on CG.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1440621\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1440621\" style=\"width: 1835px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/BTCUSD-June-22.png\"><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1440621\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">BTCUSD June 22.

Ethereum is slightly in the green and sits close to $1,750. Binance Coin remains close to $600 after a minor increase. XRP is still below $1.15, while SOL has neared $75 after a 1.2% increase.<\/p>\n<p>HYPE is down by 2% daily, while ZEC and CC have lost around 3% of value.
