More volatility ensued as the report was initially denied, and BTC slipped below $68,000.<\/p>\n<p>However, once US President Donald Trump announced the ceasefire on Tuesday morning, bitcoin rocketed to over $72,000. It climbed to almost $73,000 later that day as the FT suggested Iran would want BTC payments from ships passing through the Strait of Hormuz.<\/p>\n<p>With peace talks scheduled for Saturday in Pakistan, bitcoin <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/bitcoin-reclaims-72k-as-us-iran-ceasefire-sparks-hope-for-war-end-your-weekly-crypto-recap\/\">continued to climb<\/a> gradually by the end of the week and peaked at nearly $74,000 late last night.
