$BTC A main news generating risk aversion in the market today is the intensification of tensions and conflicts in the Middle East. This scenario of geopolitical instability causes investors to seek assets considered safer, such as the US dollar and treasury bonds, at the expense of riskier assets like cryptocurrencies.

Bitcoin, which often acts as a digital safe haven asset, is today in decline, priced in the range of $104,000 - $105,000, with a depreciation of about 1.5% in the last 24 hours. This drop shows that, in times of extreme risk aversion, the flight to safety still favors traditional assets.
