0728 GMT - Bitcoin edges lower as investors remain cautious following conflicting headlines on the Iran war. Reuters reported that Iran's supreme leader ordered near-weapons-grade uranium to stay in the country, although other media outlets later reported denials. U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio said there were some "good signs" the U.S. could deal with Iran. However, Iran's President Masoud Pezeshkian said "we will never back down" in talks. Bitcoin falls 0.4% to $77,310, LSEG data show. (renae.dyer@wsj.com)
