The U.S. Supreme Court just struck down President Trump's sweeping tariffs in a 6-3 ruling, declaring they exceeded his authority under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA). Markets reacted positively overall, with $BTC briefly popping ~2% above $68K before settling around $67K a relief bounce as trade war fears eased.

But here's the key for crypto: The immediate impact may be limited. The decision halts these specific tariffs (for now), reducing short-term economic uncertainty that could have pressured risk assets like $BTC .
Crypto didn't crash it saw a modest lift alongside stocks showing resilience amid macro noise.

Longer term? The bigger story is political. Trump's team is already eyeing alternative trade tools (and he quickly announced a new 10% global tariff push). This could shift focus in Washington, potentially affecting broader policy like crypto regulation or fiscal moves that influence liquidity.

For now, crypto traders breathe easier no major rock to the boat from this ruling. But keep watching: Political ripple effects could matter more down the line.
What do you think short-term win for $BTC or just noise? 🚀

$BTC has been under pressure recently, extending a multi-week decline as geopolitical tensions fuel a broader risk-off sentiment across markets. On Tuesday, BTC dropped as much as 3.2% to around $66,604 before recovering slightly, trading near $67,000–$68,000 levels in recent sessions (as of mid February 2026).

This pullback aligns with weakness in equities, where Nasdaq and S&P 500 futures also softened. Traders are closely monitoring escalating tensions in the Middle East particularly around Iran, including naval drills near the Strait of Hormuz and ongoing nuclear discussions which have heightened global uncertainty and prompted a flight to safer assets.

$BTC , often behaving like a high-beta tech proxy in recent months rather than a pure "digital gold" hedge, has mirrored the risk aversion. Additional headwinds include:

- Four straight weeks of net outflows from U.S.-listed Bitcoin ETFs (e.g., $360 million withdrawn last week).
- Renewed concerns over AI's broader economic ripple effects.
- Macro factors like sticky inflation delaying Fed rate cut expectations.

CryptoQuant's Fear and Greed Index has plunged into "extreme fear" territory (around 10/100), reflecting bleak sentiment among participants.

Despite the dip and even as corporate holders like Strategy added to their $BTC positions the market remains cautious. Bitcoin has rejected the $70,000 resistance multiple times this month, with some analysts watching for support near $60,000 if risk-off pressures persist.

In volatile times like these, staying informed on global events and macro flows is key. What are your thoughts on BTC's next move dip buy opportunity or further downside? Share below! 🚀📉
