U.S. Marines opened fire while blocking Iranian ports! BTC $63,736—will it keep crashing downward?
💡 Negative news 📉 — Geopolitical tensions are escalating, compounded by a surge in oil prices. Safe-haven sentiment is heating up, and risk assets are under pressure.
Guys, something big happened again in the Middle East. On Tuesday, the U.S. military directly opened fire on a Panamanian-flagged vessel attempting to break through the Iranian port blockade. In plain terms, this isn’t just talk—this is real gunfire. Infinox’s regional director Thadeu Dos Santos also commented: without any substantive diplomatic breakthrough, oil price fluctuations won’t stop. When oil prices rise, inflation expectations come back as well, and that makes a Fed rate cut even less likely.
In the short term, a spike in oil prices will push up inflation expectations, making hopes for a Fed rate cut even more slim. With expectations of tighter liquidity, funds are the first to flee high-risk assets. In the past 24 hours, BTC is down 0.46%, currently at $63,736.93. ETH is slightly more resilient, up 0.43% to $1,882.85, but honestly, this is a weak rebound—the bigger picture hasn’t changed. Risk appetite is weakening, and things are tough for the crypto market in the near term.
To be real, I’m not optimistic about this trend. If BTC can’t hold $63,736.93, the downside space opens up immediately. That small 0.43% bounce in ETH is basically a fake move—don’t let it fool you into buying. Until there’s a turning point in geopolitical risk, don’t rush to bottom-fish. Cash is king. Consider entering only when the U.S. withdraws or a ceasefire agreement comes out.
