Bitcoin's value dropped to $73,753 following Iran's refusal to participate in further US peace negotiations. The cryptocurrency had reached $78,300 on Friday but lost momentum due to increased diplomatic tension between Washington and Tehran. Iran declined talks scheduled in Islamabad, citing American naval operations near its harbors as a breach of ceasefire terms. The bilateral ceasefire arrangement between Washington and Tehran is set to conclude on April 22. The Crypto Fear & Greed Index remains in the 'fear' zone at 29. The decline in Bitcoin's price also affected the wider digital asset marketplace, with total market capitalization contracting by an estimated $83 billion.
