: Iran Raises the RED FLAG of Revenge 🇮🇷⚔️The Israel‑Iran conflict sparked an immediate crypto selloff—Bitcoin down 3–5 %, Ethereum down ~9 %, and over $140 b wiped from market cap. Binance remains under scrutiny, enforcing sanctions compliance despite past Iranian trading. Square’s ecosystem felt the mood slump, though opportunity exists in tools it provides. Historically, such geopolitical shocks fuel short-term pain but end up offering rebound setups. For now, watch conflict escalation, institutional inflows, and Binance’s sanctions activity—these will signal whether crypto remains volatile or shifts toward recovery.
