#GateOfficiallyIntegratesPolymarket Bitcoin faces rising macro pressure after Ukraine struck Russian oil infrastructure, disrupting supply and complicating efforts to stabilize global energy markets. The move comes alongside ongoing tensions around the Iran conflict and disruptions in the Strait of Hormuz, pushing oil prices higher and increasing fears of persistent inflation. Higher energy costs could force central banks to keep monetary policy tight, which typically weighs on risk assets like crypto.

As a result, Bitcoin continues trading within the $65,000–$75,000 range, with downside risk increasing if macro conditions worsen. Traders are already positioning for a possible rate hike, while elevated oil prices and reduced liquidity could test Bitcoin’s recent resilience. BTC was trading near $68,500, down roughly 2% as market uncertainty grows.$BTC ‌
