๐ฅ The Impact of the Conflict Between Israel and Iran on Cryptocurrencies ๐
The conflict between Israel and Iran has triggered significant reactions in global markets, including cryptocurrencies. Following the Israeli attack on Iranian infrastructure, the crypto market fell by 7%, with Bitcoin losing approximately 5% of its value and Ethereum even 10%. The total market capitalization of cryptocurrencies dropped to $3.3 trillion. ๐ Interestingly, the decline was relatively milder than in the past when negative news caused daily drops of up to 15%.
๐ก๏ธ Bitcoin's Stability During Global Crises ๐
In recent years, Bitcoin has begun to behave more stably during geopolitical crises. Previously, it reacted with sharp fluctuations, but its volatility is now decreasing. For example, during the current conflict between Israel and Iran, Bitcoin only fell by 5%, which is significantly less than in the past. ๐ This trend can be attributed to several factors:
- ๐ฐ Institutional Investments โ Large financial institutions are increasingly using Bitcoin as a long-term asset, which reduces its volatility.
- ๐ Regulation and ETFs โ The approval of Bitcoin ETFs has allowed traditional investors to enter the market, stabilizing the price.
- ๐ Comparison to Traditional Assets โ Bitcoin is beginning to behave similarly to gold, which is considered a safe haven in times of uncertainty.
๐ The Future of Cryptocurrencies in Geopolitical Crises ๐ฎ
If the conflict between Israel and Iran escalates further, further fluctuations in the crypto market can be expected. However, current trends suggest that Bitcoin is becoming more resilient to global crises, which may attract more investors seeking a stable alternative to traditional assets. ๐
