Financial experts said that this will now trigger a market crash once the market opens on Monday.<\/p>\n<p>And Crypto will take the hardest hit. Early signs of weakness are already visible, with Bitcoin and Ethereum both slipping around 1.5% today.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-u-s-iran-peace-talks-fail\">U.S.-Iran Peace Talks Fail<\/h2>\n<p>In a recent press release, U.S. Vice President JD Vance <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=lsx81ESL2bI\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">announced<\/a> that the peace talks between the U.S and Iran failed to reach an agreement, saying Iran had &#8220;chosen not to accept our terms.&#8221; The sticking point was non-negotiable for Washington.\u00a0<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>Vance stated that the U.S. needed &#8220;an affirmative commitment that they will not seek a nuclear weapon and will not seek the tools that would enable them to quickly achieve a nuclear weapon,&#8221; calling it the core goal of President Trump&#8217;s entire negotiation strategy.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Within hours of the <a href=\"https:\/\/truthsocial.com\/@realDonaldTrump\/posts\/116392449978703637\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">announcement<\/a>, President Trump took to Truth Social, declaring that Iran was &#8220;unwilling to give up its nuclear ambitions&#8221; and ordered the U.S Navy to immediately begin blockading the Strait of Hormuz.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>However, the collapse also puts a fragile two-week ceasefire at risk, increasing fears of further escalation.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-rising-pressure-to-dump-stock-market-nbsp\">Rising Pressure To Dump Stock Market&nbsp;<\/h2>\n<p>With diplomacy failing, traders are now pricing in conflict risk.<\/p>\n<p>At the same time, bonds are being sold, yields are rising, the dollar is weakening, and liquidity is tightening.<\/p>\n<p>The Federal Reserve has also raised its 2026 inflation forecast to 2.7% as oil stays above $100, and hopes of rate cuts are fading. This leaves central banks with limited options to support the economy.<\/p>\n<p>With all this pressure, stock markets may see heavy selling when trading opens on Monday.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-crypto-to-hit-hard-btc-and-eth-both-fall\"><strong>Crypto To Hit Hard, BTC and ETH Both Fall<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Crypto is usually hit harder than stocks in these conditions. That\u2019s already starting to show. Bitcoin price already dropped below $71,000, while Ethereum fell below $2,200, and the total crypto market cap slipped nearly 1%, falling to $2.41 trillion.<\/p>\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<p>This fearful behavior can be seen in whale activity, too.

This is often seen as a sign that the current trend may continue.<\/p>\n<p>At the same time, market makers are selling, and both open interest and spot trading volume are going down.<\/p>\n<p>In Ethereum, a <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/ImCryptOpus\/status\/2043513307043176513\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">whale holding<\/a> 131,000 ETH (worth about $288 million) recently made a profit.
