The cryptocurrency market is stabilizing on Friday as prospects for de-escalation in Middle East geopolitical tensions improve.

Bitcoin’s volatility has nearly disappeared – The risk hasn’t
Spot Bitcoin ETFs are yet to see outflows this month, bringing in $754 million in the first week of August. Yet, Bitcoin remains steady at $64,700, while options flow favors protection at $62,000 and $63,000. The opposing signals point to a market with a spot bid but limited conviction.
Crypto Today: Bitcoin, Ethereum hold steady, XRP decline nears $1.00 amid easing geopolitical tensions
Cryptocurrency prices are relatively stable on Friday, with Bitcoin (BTC) edging higher above the immediate $64,000 support.

Bitcoin: Bulls hold the line
Bitcoin (BTC) edges slightly lower, trading at $64,300 at the time of writing on Friday but holding firmly above a key support zone.
