The US, through the primary intermediary Field Marshal Syed Asim Munir (Pakistan’s Chief of Army Staff), has sent Iran a 15-point plan aimed at bringing an end to the prevailing war.
In the plan, the US proposes the lifting of all active sanctions on Iran, with a guarantee that the sanctions will not be re-imposed.
The West has also floated the suggestion that Iran freeze its nuclear program and restrict its use for defensive purposes alone. Iran should also decommission its most critical nuclear facilities, namely: Natanz, Isfahan, and Fordow.
Additionally, Iran may retain a certain amount of its enriched uranium under supervision, with plans to hand it over to the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) at a specified time. Thereafter, the nation is to halt all further development of enriched uranium.

Markets have witnessed intense volatility in the past 48 hours since Trump had threatened to blow up Iranian power plants, then changed his mind on the grounds of peace talks with Iran.
Iran has now sent a letter to the International Maritime Organization, stating that “non-hostile” vessels could go through the Strait of Hormuz.
Nonetheless, the country continues to deny any negotiations with the US as it continues missile retaliation against it and its proxies. This brings back uncertainty to the market, meaning Bitcoin, the rest of the cryptocurrencies, and traditional markets could experience volatility for a while longer.
