Bitcoin Ignores Geopolitics, Listens to Rates | Bitcoin and Crypto News
Description
Global tensions are heating up, pushing oil to $78.80 a barrel as U.S. strikes on Iran loom and Hormuz looms shut — yet gold is falling, defying traditional safe-haven expectations. Meanwhile, Bitcoin holds steady above $62K, up 1.6% weekly, while Ether surges 5.7% — a quiet defiance amid chaos. Traders now see Bitcoin less as a risk hedge and more as a rate-sensitive asset, with market focus shifting to Fed rate hikes expected as early as October. Bitcoin’s muted reaction to Middle East turmoil signals a new paradigm — traders are watching the $60K level closely as a potential inflection point. Elsewhere, stablecoin market caps hit their worst monthly drop since TerraUSD, while tokenized equities trade volume soars 145% to a record $3.86B — revealing a seismic realignment in crypto capital flows.
