Analyst: Rapid De-escalation of US-Iran Conflict, Morgan Stanley Bitcoin ETF Launch, and Other Catalysts Driving Bitcoin Price Higher

2 hours ago

April 1st (CoinDesk) — Former President Donald Trump said the Iran conflict is expected to end within two to three weeks without needing to reach an agreement with Tehran, and he will deliver a national address at 9 p.m. ET Wednesday. Iranian President Pezeshkiyan later told the European Council president that Tehran “has the necessary willingness to end this war” but is seeking assurances against future attacks. On the back of this news, Asia-Pacific stocks surged, while S&P 500 futures also rose. In contrast, the cryptocurrency market reacted more mutedly, with Bitcoin fluctuating between $65,000 and $73,000 throughout the conflict. Alex Blume, CEO of Two Prime, noted three key catalysts that could drive Bitcoin higher in Q2: the launch of Morgan Stanley’s Bitcoin ETF, ongoing funding for Bitcoin purchases via Strategy’s STRC preferred stock, and a rapid resolution to the Iran war. The approved Morgan Stanley Bitcoin ETF has a fee of 14 basis points—lower than the category average of 11 basis points—and will open access to the firm’s 16,000 financial advisors and the $6.2 trillion in assets they oversee.

Quantum Risk: Quantum Risk truly exists, representing a systemic issue rather than being limited to cryptocurrency

April 1st, QCP noted in a post that a recent Google paper has reignited debate over quantum computing and cryptography security—specifically Elliptic Curve Cryptography (ECC), the scheme used by Bitcoin and Ethereum. This is a long-term structural issue, not an immediate market risk—and that distinction is critical. ECC security relies on the elliptic curve discrete logarithm problem to protect private keys, making it computationally infeasible to derive a private key from its corresponding public key. The same standard secures banking networks, encrypted communications, and global financial infrastructure—including the SWIFT system. If quantum computing breaks ECC, the impact will be global, not limited to digital assets. Technically speaking, the computing power needed to crack ECC is still a long way off. To date, the world’s most advanced quantum systems represent only a tiny fraction of that required threshold—roughly 1,000 times short—meaning practical attacks remain a dist

Analyst: Bitcoin Parabolic Rally Era May Be Over, Market Maturing

**April 1st (CoinDesk) — Bitcoin has hovered around $70,000 since early February, far below its $126,000 peak in the 2023-2025 bull market, CoinDesk analyst Omkar Godbole noted Wednesday.** That $70,000 level marks the 2019-2022 cycle’s all-time high—a rare sign the current bear market has pulled back to the prior cycle’s peak. Bitcoin never fell to its prior cycle’s peak during the 2014 and 2018 bear markets. The only exception was 2022, when prices dropped below the 2017 peak of $20,000—analysts blamed that on crypto scams and widespread deleveraging then. What makes this retracement unique? No extreme catalysts—just the natural fade of the bear cycle. New bull cycles no longer see parabolic surges, making it harder for prices to blow past prior highs (old peaks aren’t untouchable anymore). This is classic diminishing returns: the higher Bitcoin’s price climbs, the more capital it takes to push it higher. The era of small inflows triggering sharp spikes is largely over, l
