▲ +1.68% (24h) · +0.03% (1h)

Bitcoin is showing minimal movement (0.05% in 15min, 0.03% in 1h) despite modest 24h gains of 1.68%. The news mix is broad—ranging from AI developments and stablecoin adoption to geopolitical tension (Iran strikes) and regulatory scrutiny—but none appears directly tied to today's small price action. The calm intraday movement likely reflects consolidation or competing headwinds that are roughly offsetting each other.
