0652 GMT - Bitcoin rises marginally as U.S. stock futures edge higher after the U.S. and Iran agreed to halt attacks. U.S. officials said the U.S. and Iran would end days of back-and-forth fighting around the Strait of Hormuz and resume peace talks, the WSJ reports. Meanwhile, investors will be monitoring the performance of tech stocks this week following a recent selloff that weighed on cryptocurrencies. U.S. labor market data including the key nonfarm payrolls report on Thursday will also be in focus given the recent increase in expectations for interest-rate rises by the Federal Reserve. Bitcoin rises 0.7% to $60,006, having reached a 21-month low of $58,075 last Thursday, LSEG data show. (renae.dyer@wsj.com)
