Geopolitical tensions between Iran and Israel have once again spiked, creating fear-driven volatility across global markets — especially crypto. Traders rushed to safe-haven assets like gold and USDT during initial escalation, while major coins like BTC and ETH saw short-term pullbacks. Historically, war headlines create panic dips, but often lead to sharp rebounds once uncertainty clears.
Now, with Donald Trump making headlines again ahead of the U.S. elections — promising "stability and strength" — the market may react with a short-term risk-on sentiment. Altcoins and meme coins tend to pump on political hype and social media buzz. But caution is key: if tensions worsen or Trump adds fuel with aggressive foreign policy talk, another dip may follow. In such times, smart scalping and tight risk management are your best friends.
