🧠 Flight to Safety: Why Bitcoin Spikes During Geopolitical Unrest
As tensions rise in the Middle East due to the Iran-Israel conflict, global investors are searching for safe-haven assets — and guess what? Bitcoin (BTC) is once again on the radar. 📈
Historically, BTC has shown bullish tendencies during geopolitical shocks:
📌 Russia-Ukraine war (2022) — BTC dropped briefly, then surged over 30% in weeks.
📌 US-Iran tensions (2020) — Gold and BTC both spiked as safe assets.
📌 Israel-Hamas conflict (2023) — BTC saw sudden short-term inflows.
But why?
🔹 Bitcoin is borderless and not tied to any nation.
🔹 It operates outside traditional financial systems.
🔹 During war, fear = demand for decentralized, non-seizable assets.
Yet, it’s not always smooth. Volatility increases. Whales shift quickly. Altcoins often suffer.
