BlockBeats News, June 24th, According to AXIOS: Trump is preparing to respond to an Iranian attack on a U.S. base in the Middle East Gulf region. The scale of Iran's retaliation (especially the number of casualties) will determine how Trump responds and whether the U.S. will be more deeply involved in the Israel-Iran war.
Trump plans to meet with the National Security Council at the White House at 1:00 p.m. Eastern Time (1:00 a.m. Beijing Time today) to discuss this threat.
Possibly affected by the ongoing geopolitical war situation, Bitcoin briefly surged after the U.S. stock market opened but continued to decline, dropping over 2% within 2.5 hours, now trading at $100,217.
