Bitcoin held around $68,000 on Tuesday, March 3, showing resilience after Monday's rally, as global stocks tumbled on renewed Middle East tensions. The Nasdaq and S&P 500 fell over 2%, gold dropped sharply, and the U.S. dollar strengthened amid risk-off moves.

Precious metals experienced a dramatic plunge on Friday, with silver dropping 35% and gold falling 12% from recent highs. Bitcoin remained relatively stable around $83,000 amid the volatility. The sell-off appears linked to President Trump's nomination of Kevin Warsh as Federal Reserve chair.
