🔥 US-Iran situation escalates overnight, BTC under pressure


The US launched a second round of strikes against Iran, hitting over 80 targets, and oil tanker traffic in the Strait of Hormuz has largely halted. Oil prices surged directly to $0, with WTI rising over 5% intraday.
BTC did not rise but fell instead — no safe-haven rally came, rather inflation fears weighed on risk assets. Gold also fell 1.65%, indicating markets are worried the Fed will find it harder to cut rates.
Such geopolitical conflict is a double-edged sword for crypto: short-term safe-haven narratives may be hyped, but oil prices pushing up inflation expectations are the real pressure.
The key is whether Iran will actually block the Strait. If it does, global supply chains will be disrupted, and all risk assets will tremble.👀#预测世界杯法国VS摩洛哥
