They bombed empty bases just to pump the fear
Same playbook was used in 2020, before the Bull Run
1/
The 2025 US-Iran conflict feels like déjà vu
Markets moved in the same pattern we saw in 2020 - headlines, panic, dip-buying
Back then it was the final shakeout before altseason
This time looks eerily similar - and equally profitable
2/
Yesterday, panic spread with reports Iran was preparing to strike US bases in Iraq and Qatar
Some media even claimed the attacks had started, without confirmation
Oil started rising, crypto and stocks dropped
Classic playbook - emotional headlines, market overreaction
3/
Later that day, Iran confirmed missile strikes on US bases in Iraq and Qatar
Both the US and Qatar were warned in advance, as confirmed by CNN and Al Jazeera
There were no casualties or serious damage
The strike was symbolic - a message, not an escalation
4/
Markets reversed fast - Bitcoin jumped above $99K, oil dropped, S&P turned green
Shorts got wiped out within hours
Liquidity moved instantly back to risk assets
It looked like a controlled setup, not a real war scenario
5/
Hours later, Trump announced the conflict between Iran and Israel was over
A verbal ceasefire was declared, no formal agreement signed
The market took this as confirmation - no escalation ahead
Relief rally kicked in across all major assets
6/
Israel responded with a limited strike, no casualties reported
Trump publicly told Israel not to escalate
Israel confirmed the response happened and planes had returned
All sides got their political points without triggering war
7/
Oil dropped by 6% from intraday highs
Stocks closed green, Bitcoin held above $98K
Whales moved tokens like $SOL, $ETH to exchanges
ETF inflows continued - over $2.7B into BTC ETFs in 10 days
8/
This is not new - in January 2020, US-Iran tensions triggered a similar sequence
Iran attacked a US base, markets dropped, panic headlines ran wild
Within days, BTC surged and risk-on assets rallied into Q2 2020 bull phase
The same cycle may now repeat
9/
What you should do now:
Don’t trade fear - trade flows and positioning
Track on-chain behavior - whales are moving liquidity, not exiting
Watch for confirmation from Powell or Fed members on rate cuts
Focus on altcoins with heavy selling that didn’t break structure
10/
This is not war - this is narrative manipulation
Panic sells the dip, whales buy the future
In 2020 it launched the altseason
In 2025, it might do the same again
