Saudi's East-West pipeline just got hit—the backup route to Hormuz Strait is now compromised.
This pipeline moves crude from the Persian Gulf to the Red Sea, bypassing Hormuz entirely. With US-Iran tensions already choking Hormuz, losing this alternative route is a massive geopolitical risk.
If supply routes keep getting targeted, we're looking at:
• Oil shock potential
• Macro risk-off across markets
• Flight to safe havens ($BTC included?)
Watch how energy markets react. If crude spikes, expect ripple effects into equities and crypto liquidity.
