Bitcoin Holds Near $64,200 as Hormuz Talks Begin

Bitcoin traded around $64,200 on Sunday, June 21, 2026, recovering part of a Friday decline that took it below $63,000. 9 percent over the prior 24 hours but finished the week roughly flat, according to CoinDesk data. 3 percent for the week to $1,734.

2 percent. 8 percent for the week. 9 percent over seven days. US and Iranian officials, including Vice President JD Vance, are scheduled to open talks on a permanent ceasefire in Switzerland.

The meeting follows a memorandum of understanding President Donald Trump signed last week that established a 60-day window, extendable, for negotiations. Iran issued a renewed order to close the Strait of Hormuz, the shipping route whose reopening under the earlier deal contributed to a roughly 9 percent drop in oil prices last week.

Tehran is sending negotiators to Switzerland even as it threatens to shut the strait again.

41 trillion, the lowest level since September 2024, CoinDesk Research reported. 4 percent in the same month to a new all-time high.
