Bitcoin Forecast: Will the $78,300 Ceasefire Trap Break or Ignite an $82K Super-Spike?
Bitcoin (BTC) is navigating a high-stakes technical pivot on Thursday, April 23, 2026, currently trading near $77,910. While the leading cryptocurrency briefly touched $78,300 earlier this morning, the rally is beginning to flatline as risk appetite sours across global markets. Despite President Trump’s indefinite extension of the US-Iran ceasefire, a total stalemate in peace negotiations and the continued closure of the Strait of Hormuz have pushed Brent crude back above $103, reigniting the Stagflation-lite fears that have haunted risk assets throughout 2026.
