$BTC is doing something I find more interesting than simply “going up”.
- Oil is repricing geopolitical risk
- Equities are absorbing the shock
- BTC meanwhile, barely flinches
That does not make Bitcoin a safe haven yet.
The sample is too small, and crypto has a long history of breaking its own narratives when conditions get worse.
But the divergence matters.
If BTC keeps holding up while traditional risk markets price in higher geopolitical and energy risk, the correlation story around Bitcoin may be changing in real time.
What happens when the next serious risk-off move hits?
