When local geopolitical tensions escalate, investors typically sell off risk assets and turn to traditional safe-haven assets:

• International oil prices surge, with WTI crude futures rising by 6%

• Spot gold surges significantly, up over 0.7%, with prices breaking $3,400 per ounce

• US stock futures are all down, with Nasdaq futures dropping 1.5%, and S&P 500 and Dow futures down over 1%

Although the market has described Bitcoin as 'digital gold', its actual performance shows that its safe-haven properties are unstable. In geopolitical crises, Bitcoin often behaves more like a risk asset rather than a safe-haven asset, with investors tending to sell off Bitcoin to avoid risk.

So do you think BTC is a risk asset or a safe-haven asset?
