Why is Bitcoin down today? Saudi petrochemical industrial facilities were hit, and Trump issued an ultimatum to Iran

Bitcoin (BTC) fell to about $68,800 on April 7, driven by geopolitical risks in the Middle East and Trump’s hardline remarks toward Iran. The Saudi explosion incident boosted global safe-haven sentiment, and technical indicators showed overbought pressure.
