How do wars affect the crypto market?
Yes, wars clearly affect the cryptocurrency market (crypto), but the impact varies depending on the type of war, its duration, and the nature of the global economy at the time. Hereโs a simple and direct explanation:$BNB
๐ 1. State of fear and uncertainty (FUD)
When any war breaks out, the first reaction in the markets โ whether traditional or digital โ is fear. Investors flee from risky assets (like cryptocurrencies) and turn to safe havens (like gold and the dollar). The result? A temporary drop in crypto prices.
๐ข 2. Shifting to crypto as an alternative refuge
In some cases, especially when the war is in countries suffering from economic collapse or international sanctions, people turn to crypto to escape inflation, sanctions, or the collapse of their local currency. Example:
Ukrainians and Russians at the beginning of the war in 2022 significantly increased their use of Bitcoin and stablecoins (like USDT).
๐ 3. Market volatility violently
Every new piece of news about the war can turn the market in seconds, whether up or down. Investors act more emotionally than logically during crises.
๐ 4. Indirect impact through the global economy
If the war affects oil prices, inflation, or central bank policies, it reflects on investor decisions in all markets, including crypto.
And currently, could a war between Iran and Israel break out that would affect the cryptocurrency market?
Summary ๐ก
Wars usually start with a negative impact on crypto, but over time, they may lead to increased interest in it as an alternative to the traditional financial system โ especially in affected countries.
