Geopolitical tensions are heating up: Iran has just announced the closure of civilian airspace. Such sudden events have historically been triggers for risk in the crypto market. Whenever geopolitical tensions escalate, investors tend to shift towards safe-haven assets—Bitcoin and Ethereum are often seen as hedging tools. In the short term, this may lead to market volatility, especially with risk assets facing selling pressure. Changes in the Middle East situation directly impact global energy prices and macroeconomic expectations, which in turn affect crypto market sentiment. It is worth paying attention to the market response in the next 24 hours, especially BTC's performance in these black swan events.

The black swan is coming again. This time, let's see if BTC can withstand it. History always repeats itself; every time there's turmoil in the Middle East, the crypto circle starts to get restless.

The black swan is coming again, this time it's Iran... Every time, whenever there's a slight disturbance, BTC becomes a safe haven darling. It's quite ironic, haha.

Here we go again. Every time there's news from the Middle East, the crypto market starts yoyoing. Can BTC hold up this time?

Here we go again. Every time there is geopolitical tension, everyone rushes into BTC. Will Iran's closure of airspace really trigger panic buying? Feels like a bit of an overinterpretation.

Is the black swan coming again? Can it actually lift BTC this time? Every time, it’s said to be a safe-haven asset, but it still falls along with risky assets.

Another geopolitical black swan, BTC follows the same pattern: first a plunge, then a rebound.

Is it really going to drop this time? Or is it just another false alarm... Let's see if BTC can hold this wave.
