Oil near $97… but why should crypto traders care?
Because this isn't just another geopolitical headline.
The U.S. says it struck 3 Iranian oil tankers after attacks involving U.S. Navy ships. Brent has climbed sharply, reaching around $96–97, while last week’s gain was already above 7%.
Here’s the market mechanics: higher oil → higher inflation pressure → fewer expectations for easy monetary policy → risk assets can feel the squeeze.
BTC has shown surprising resilience during previous Iran escalations, but that doesn't mean volatility disappears.
The hidden risk? Hormuz. Any serious disruption could push energy prices much higher.
Bull case: BTC absorbs the shock.
Bear case: inflation + risk-off hits crypto.
My move? Watch BTC reaction, not headlines.
Don’t FOMO into geopolitical volatility. The next candle decides more than the headline.
