JAKARTA - In the last 24 hours, Bitcoin has been recorded to have strengthened slightly by 1.05% to the level of US$ 67,200 (Rp. 1.14 billion), but has not been able to maintain the level of US$ 68,000 (Rp. 1.15 billion) which was achieved the day before.

Financial Expert Ajaib, Panji Yudha, said that Bitcoin's current movement is still influenced by tensions between the United States and Iran which hold investor interest in risky assets.

Despite being pushed by signals of diplomatic resolution, the strengthening did not last long, Bitcoin is currently contracting by 23.7%.

However, the market still maintains optimism entering the second quarter of 2026, given that historically Bitcoin has recorded an average increase of 27.11% in the period over the past 12 years.

On the other hand, institutional investor activity shows a different dynamic. The BitMine crypto company recorded a large purchase by accumulating 71,179 ETH worth around 143 million US dollars.

"This aggressive move makes BitMine the only large-scale corporate buyer still active after the accumulation strategy of Bitcoin by other large companies began to subside," said Panji.

From the macroeconomic factor, the statement of the Chairman of the Federal Reserve, Jerome Powell, who tends to ignore the short-term oil price spike provided a little fresh air.

This has encouraged a decline in US government bond yields and lowered expectations of a Fed rate hike in 2026 to just 5%.

For today's trading, Bitcoin is expected to move in the range of US$66,000 - US$68,000 or around Rp1.12 - Rp1.15 billion.
