Bitcoin is showing resilience as geopolitical tensions push investors toward assets seen as stores of value.

BTC climbed as much as 0.1% to around $78,430 while gold also moved higher. At the same time Brent crude crossed $100 a barrel as concerns over the impact of the Iran conflict continued to build.

Equity markets moved lower as investors assessed the potential economic impact of higher energy prices and rising geopolitical risk.

The latest moves highlight how quickly global macro events can influence both traditional and crypto markets. For Bitcoin, the key question now is whether this strength can hold as uncertainty remains elevated.
