Trump boasts the strongest military—yet Khamenei just warned: “The strongest army can be slapped so hard it cannot get up.”
Nuclear talks wrapped in Geneva today amid massive US carrier deployments (Lincoln + Ford) and Iran’s Hormuz drills.

Crypto already bleeding: BTC down sharply amid spikes in tension, the market shed billions as risk-off hit hard.
Oil threats could send prices soaring → more inflation fear, liquidity crunch, leveraged wipes.

Short-term: volatility spikes, BTC/ETH dumps on escalation fears.
Long-term flip: Iran ramps BTC/stablecoin use to evade sanctions—war accelerates real adoption of decentralized money.

Crypto survives chaos when fiat systems falter. Position wisely. #Bitcoin #USIran #crypto
