Bitcoin slips below $84,000 as tanker attacks lift oil
Original: Bitcoin dips below $84,000 as oil jumps on Iranian tanker attacks
Bitcoin fell below $84,000 after attacks on tankers linked to Iran pushed oil prices higher, adding geopolitical pressure to already fragile markets.

Why now: Geopolitical escalation in the Gulf is moving money out of risk assets like Bitcoin and into oil and safety trades.
