Bitcoin falls after Trump reportedly canceled Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner's Iran-talks trip

Trump is expected to speak at his crypto conference in Palm Beach shortly. What to know : Bitcoin slipped about $100 to $77,351 late Friday morning after former President Donald Trump said he had halted a planned diplomatic trip tied to Iran talks. Trump canceled a trip by envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner, who had been expected to travel to Pakistan for a new round of discussions involving Iran. The pullback in bitcoin was modest, suggesting traders saw it as a short-term geopolitical risk rather than a change in the broader market outlook, as they await further U.S. and Iranian statements and Trump’s scheduled speech at a crypto conference.
