Bitcoin price made a strong bullish breakout, reaching its highest level since January this year. The BTC/USD pair jumped to 87,000, up by 50% from its lowest level this year.

Bitcoin jumped as investors embraced a risk-on sentiment as crude oil prices dropped below the crucial $100. Oil retreated as investors waited for potential talks between the US and Iranian leaders at the UN General Assembly. Trump has said that he would be willing to meet with Iran’s president, though it is unclear whether this meeting will happen.

Gulf leaders are also considering talking directly and reaching deals with Iran. In statements this week, leaders from countries like Qatar, UAE, and Saudi Arabia said that they would consider a new security architecture in the region.

These leaders have noted that their reliance on US security has failed. They have also understood the strength of Iranian military. If a deal is reached, these countries will likely strike major deals with Iran and possibly reopen the Strait of Hormuz, leading to lower oil prices.
