Geopolitics brutally enters financial markets, but the queen of cryptocurrencies refuses to bend. Following US strikes on Kharg Island, the true jewel of Iranian oil exports, Donald Trump issued a chilling warning. On Truth Social, he claimed to have spared energy infrastructure “out of decency,” while threatening to reconsider this decision if Iran continues blocking the Strait of Hormuz.

Traders seem to have priced in geopolitical risk, transforming what could have been a crash into a simple accumulation phase before a potential breakout<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This relative strength demonstrates growing maturity in the crypto market.

Markets, which hoped for imminent rate cuts, now fear a restrictive discourse from Jerome Powell.<\/p>\n\n\n\n$100 Oil and Fed Meeting: The Explosive Cocktail for Cryptos<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
