Bitcoin fell approximately 1% to $80,800, while Ethereum dropped 2%. Escalating tensions in the Middle East pushed oil prices and the U.S. dollar higher, causing most altcoins to underperform; however, CRO, CRV, and TON rose between 5% and 10%, with CRO supported by a proposal for tokenomics reform. CoinDesk’s DeFi and Computing indices led the declines, and in the crypto space, JUP, MON, and SEI fell over 5% due to weak liquidity.
