#IsraelIranConflict

This morning, the world awoke to a new geopolitical crisis triggered by a large-scale Israeli airstrike on Iran. Dubbed "Rising Lion," this operation has quickly escalated tensions in the region, shaking not only the diplomatic balance but also global markets. One of the sectors most severely affected is the cryptocurrency market.

Israel-Iran Conflict Triggers Bitcoin Mass Sell-Off

The Israeli airstrike on Iranian military facilities (June 13, 2025) has sparked turmoil in global markets. Oil surged, stocks plummeted, and Bitcoin dropped 3% to $103,000 due to panic selling. Investors are scrambling for safe-haven assets such as the US dollar and gold.

More than $1 billion in Bitcoin leveraged positions were liquidated in a short period, exacerbating the sell pressure. Nevertheless, analysts predict that Bitcoin could recover as a hedge alternative if the conflict undermines confidence in traditional financial systems.

Warning for investors: The market is now super sensitive to geopolitical escalation. High volatility is expected to continue, requiring extra vigilance.
