1. The Web3 market operates around the clock, and conflict events cannot be 'closed to cool down'.
Traditional financial markets can at least pause trading to calmly handle situations (like stock market circuit breakers),
But the crypto market is open 24/7, and as soon as news comes, it immediately reflects emotional fluctuations:
No buffer, no circuit breaker.
Panic reflects first, rationality follows to fill the gap.
Between truth and falsehood, you have already been cut off beforehand.
2. The crypto circle heavily relies on emotion-driven trading, geopolitical events amplify volatility.
The crypto market's performance does not rely on results, but on narratives.
Narratives of war and conflict, these 'black swan' events can instantly break market consensus and cause emotional collapse.
Panic emotions automatically amplify declines.
Short selling, liquidation, and a chain reaction of panic.
Overnight, it turns into a FUD (Fear, Uncertainty, Doubt) storm.
You are not losing in the war, but losing in panic.
3. On-chain assets are inherently risk assets, there is no way to hedge.
Many people say 'Bitcoin is digital gold', but when it comes to war, it drops just like US stocks.
This is because:
BTC, ETH, and SOL do not have strong hedging mechanisms.
Mainstream funds are still flowing back to the dollar, gold, and US bonds.
What you hold in your hand is actually a high-volatility tech asset.
You think you are buying 'future freedom',
The market perceives that you hold 'risk chips'.
4. The narrative is preemptively positioned by traders, 'war' is their script tool.
The crypto circle is driven by emotions first, institutions know first:
Professional traders will layout short positions, set stop losses, and cut long positions in advance.
Emotional fluctuations are their favorite hunting ground.
War is just a 'volatility generator'.
You are chasing news, they are writing the script.
You are the audience, they are the directors.
5. You are too small to control global rules, yet you are forced to participate in a global game.
but this is the cruelest reality:
You are earning points on Binance, while Iran is deploying drones.
You are researching ZK airdrops, while Wall Street is liquidating for arbitrage.
You are trying to hedge with USDT, but the Federal Reserve controls the cost of the dollar.
Web3 claims to be decentralized,
But you still live in a world constructed by power, capital, war, and policy.
but this time, you cannot exit the game.
In summary:
You are just a 'resident on the chain'.
But even a slight fluctuation in global finance,
It will leave traces of liquidation in your wallet.
