What’s happening right now doesn’t really affect Bitcoin. I’ve seen a few threads saying the current war between Iran and Israel, plus US intervention, could cause the market to collapse. And yeah, it kinda looked like it was going that way when Bitcoin dropped below $100k.

But look what happened -- it bounced back and is now trading at $105k. That just proves there’s nothing to worry about. Bitcoin can stand through tough times, and in fact, it’s something you can actually trust with your investment.

That's because a seized fire was announced. In the short term the war did affect Bitcoin which is not surprising
Collapse is a strong word. Like I usually say
Most people first reaction towards negative international news is to sell
Before they think back on what they are holding
Most times is by individuals that are init for the short term profit, Weak hands.

What I'm trying to say is, It does affect Bitcoin because price are influenced by investors sentiments
But only in a short term.

I think that one of the reasons Bitcoin is still standing undefeated is because people are beginning to become more confident in it. This is unlike years back when investors sold off their assets in panic due to FOMO or FUD. The situation is changing now, and it is indeed a good thing.

During this period of war, affected countries might experience some financial difficulties. This should be a signal for them to consider incorporating Bitcoin fully into their system.

I noticed the decline after the US made their strike on Iran's nuclear site a few days ago. The market reacted the way it should, but bounced back for one reason I guess, and that's because the majority, especially investors, are not buying into their propaganda. If you remember, a similar decline occurred the moment the fight broke out at first, which made Bitcoin drop down to $101K if I remember correctly. Shortly after it bounced back despite the war and strike still ongoing.

The FOMO and propaganda is really making a negative impact, I can't deny to that fact, but I think the majority are not buying into it, so Bitcoin might continue to bounce back as long as it continues. I heard the cease fire just broke few hours ago, and both countries have resumed from where they stopped. We aren't buying into their stories this time, as we can boldly see what's happening.

Bitcoin is a speculative asset, so I do expect people to speculate on its future when events like this happens. Honestly, I was unperturbed by the market condition following US attack on Iran nuclear facilities. Since it was not bear season yet, I knew sooner or later, the market will bounce back and Bitcoin price is already retracting after dropping below $100k.

Yep, short-term effects are like that: because the conflict deescalated as of now, investors think it's all fine and dandy.

We will see about that.

Israel and Iran have ceasefire for now. Trump talked about it and bitcoin increased to $106000. But what OP said is still true because before the time of ceasefire talk, bitcoin was able to survive $98800 or so and increased back above $100000. But we do not know what will happen yet when the heat season begins.

Same as when Ukraine vs Russia what happened to bitcoin? even though there is a decline bitcoin will return to its previous point so when the war between Iran vs Israel is going on now we don't need to panic because bitcoin has proven it before this incident. Always remember bitcoin will only be affected in the short term but in the long term nothing will be able to affect bitcoin.

I never understand why Bitcoin drops during times of war. In fact, it should increase in value during such periods just like gold. Bitcoin is now the digital equivalent of a precious metals. While transporting physical gold from one place to another is difficult, Bitcoin allows you to move money freely across the world. During the Russia and Ukraine war, many people were able to take their wealth with them when fleeing to other countries thanks to Bitcoin. More and more people are now recognizing these advantages and even during wartime Bitcoin doesn't experience significant drops anymore.

There was already a war between Russia and Ukraine but the market did not have a significant effect on the price of Bitcoin. Continuing with Iran's war with Israel, the same situation also happened to the price of Bitcoin. The price drop to $98k occurred after the US intervention and even then it did not last long because it bounced back to the price of $106k.

For me this is an act of unvestors who have started to think well of Bitcoin and I think most people are starting to realize that Bitcoin is a safe asset to own because its storage is not like gold and other valuable assets when their country is in conflict like war.

Maybe we are going to have a real test on bitcoin if US should go into war (but I don't wish that to happen this time going forward) because from what we saw with the attack on Iran that changed the whole of the technical indices, causing price to dip and later recovered after seize fire was announced. It is a speculative currency but I think the most of what is still pushing Bitcoin high seems to be because the bull season is still locking around. I don't know what would have happened to the dip if we were half way gone with bear. Anyway, we are still watching what is happening in middle east and how price of Bitcoin reacts to it.

I am also very surprised to see bitcoin drop during war, but if you check the Russian Ukraine war, bitcoin only dropped when Putin talked about Russia invading Ukraine. Russian soldier were very close to Ukraine at the border at the time and they invaded Ukraine immediately. After Putin speech, bitcoin dropped but not up to 12 hours that bitcoin increased back to the price it was falling from.

Bitcoin has been more prone to price fall to the war in the East Asia. I also do not know the reason for it, but now that bitcoin price is very sensitive to Trump and how United States is an ally to Israel and how people are fearing world war 3 has been the likely reasons. People are more about looking for Trump positive and negative news that can have effect on the market.

But if you noticed, if the negative news is coming from Trump, bitcoin will fall but later bitcoin will rise back as usual. I remember after the tariff trade war from Trump to almost all countries in the world and mostly about China, bitcoin fell, but late it increased and get to all time high. What I still see is that bitcoin is still proven to be a good asset.

About this political and society news, I am not afraid at all, I know they only have short term effect on bitcoin. The only thing that I am afraid of is the bear season. Maybe bitcoin will fall or not, but at least, bitcoin will still get to all time high after.

Bitcoin price had weakened to below $100k after the US destroyed Iran nuclear facilities, the good news is that it is now trading back at $105k. The crypto market is very sensitive to geopolitics that cause uncertainty, if the conflict between Israel and Iran occurs for a long time, perhaps the price of Bitcoin could potentially fall back below $100k.
However, I am very optimistic that the decline in Bitcoin prices will not last long because large companies that hold large amounts of Bitcoin such as MicroStrategy will try to pump the price of Bitcoin back to above $100k. The ongoing conflict between the two countries can be used to buy Bitcoin for long-term investment, although the current pressure is very heavy, the fundamental foundation of Bitcoin is still very strong.

Bitcoin has matured and become one of the top 10 most valuable assets in the world, and can now be considered a mainstream financial asset alongside other assets. Therefore, I believe the discussion about whether Bitcoin can survive after the war is no longer relevant.

Instead, what we should be concerned with is whether the world sees it as a safe haven or a speculative asset. But what is happening, it seems the world still does not consider it a safe haven like gold, it is still just a speculative asset and that is why it is dumped every time there is war, geopolitical instability...Bitcoin behaves more like the stock market than gold.

Bitcoin reacting negatively to war news is inevitable, but how quickly it will pull back has drastically changed over time. War no longer holds a strong thing on Bitcoin; it's just that there are those who panic too much over every little thing, and their panic selling pushes the market to react almost in an instant once war breaks out. The market is actually back and has regained full support, which many are saying is a result of the countries involved in this war ceasing fire, and there are rumours of a peace movement.

Because many people still feel panic with the war situation... what they fear is where the price falls freely so that it becomes FOMO to sell it
During the time of the war, bitcoin did experience a decline, but after there was news of a ceasefire, it recovered faster without having to wait a long time, we saw the Ukraine and Russia war for several years, bitcoin was still able to reach its ATH record.

People should think like you, where when there is a war you just go without having to bring physical goods, while bitcoin can be carried anywhere easily without other people knowing, this is the advantage of bitcoin in critical situations during war.

Same damn story every effing time and doomcallers always fall for it.

“The world is ending, were all gonna dieee!”

“This time it is different , this time it is real!”

The world didn’t and this time wasn’t different.

One more time those who panic sold their assets got fooled and those bought the dip made a fortune.

If you happen to sold your assets during the dip, this is your chance to smarten up. It happened to many of us before.

Yeah, scared hands will always be the backbone from which smart money will get their push going: we, as retailers, should try to do the same and try to go for the opposite of this FUD-end-of-the-world flow 8)

And I often comment when the price of Bitcoin drops a little bit, some people assume it is because of the war between Iran and Israel, plus the US intervention. Maybe the impact is small, but what we have to know is that Bitcoin has been through several wars and other conflicts. Bitcoin stands tall and there is indeed a slight drop, but I think it is just a healthy correction that is not something to worry about and will eventually go back up. And the insignificant drop may be because some investors sold it to find a safe haven but after it recovered they bought it back even investors who did not sell also bought it at a discount and this is what caused the price of Bitcoin to go back up which I think will continue to happen like this when there is a war or other conflict and Bitcoin has never experienced a significant drop which not long after went back up and continued to go up.

I thought the effect of a war has the opposite effect which is push price up as people have fear over holding their wealth in stocks, banks etc and want to secure the bag by getting everything moved up into crypto.

Btw that USA ceasefire didn't hold, we still watching closely to see what happens ...


Maybe because the war has escalated as ceasefire seems to have failed and the worst could be coming...

A short-term local conflict, which seems to have already ended with the conflict being stopped, should not be considered "hard times". These hard times will indeed come and let's see how resistant to external influences the bitcoin will be. I understand your enthusiasm for the current scenario, when the bitcoin has essentially proven to be unshakable, but let's evaluate the situation "not as a piece of the puzzle", but as a "whole picture". It seems to me that we will still have many opportunities to test the bitcoin for "stress resistance".

It has long been known that the investments of the bitcoin can be trusted. Look at the large investors who would not do this without the appropriate research and analysis. Also, in part, the money (located as an investment in bitcoin) of these institutional investors acts as a kind of guarantor of reliability.

I will agree that bitcoin wasn’t too stress during this period of war which was banging towards WW3 and a more serious broke out would have actually caused the market to dip. One thing I have actually been telling anyone or mostly investors is that I don’t believe that bitcoin wouldn’t fall during crisis periods most especially if it has to do with the world economy but that bitcoin would always go up after this crisis period.

Bitcoin over the years to me have faced crisis much impactful to the world economy than all this boarder wars and at the end of the day it usually gets back up, one big example is the pandemic that rock the entire world, most people thought it was the end for bitcoin but since then bitcoin has gone up massively. So personally for now I don’t see anything that will stress the market resistance, at worse now will be a 10% dip

Everything is temporary - the war, the Bitcoin price, everything! So do not start thinking that war will have a long lasting impact on Bitcoin price. Rather, it can have a different effect altogether. In case of war, a lot of investor will look for alternatives like Bitcoins to protect their capital. So you may start seeing it's price increasing.

But whatever happens, are all temporary. Bitcoin may be the least concerned asset class if we get to see full blown war.

Bitcoin has come a very long way and was War as well as other world issues don't affect it anymore. I like to theorize that maybe because of the entrance of institutional investors that is why bitcoin price it's almost not affected by this issues. I stand to be corrected but this is a theory that I hold in my head. Secondly, if they had been more than three Nations involved it is likely that, it may have affected bitcoins price strongly. Another likely theory of mine. I also stand to be corrected.

I kept saying it in different threads that people are overreacting and overestimating the effect of the war on Bitcoin. I remember a few days back when bitcoin went from $107k to $104k and people kept talking about how bitcoin might be affected by the war and dip even further, like it's a new thing for bitcoin price to fluctuate.

The market forces that affect the price of demand are people; they're not ghosts or spirits, and these people have grown to trust Bitcoin more, so they don't panic and sell off their bitcoin at every negative news like they used to.
I'm not saying it is impossible for Bitcoin to crash, but it will take more than an event like that to crash bitcoin at this point.

You are right, we have seen that Bitcoin has gone through various complications since its creation, When the whole world was in Restlessness due to the pandemic, people thought that the price of Bitcoin would drop completely, but Bitcoin is doing the opposite. Similarly, even if there is a temporary economic problem due to the war between Israel and Iran, it is expected that it will not have much impact on Bitcoin.

I have noticed that many people are criticizing that the war between Iran and Israel will have a significant impact on the price of Bitcoin. I will tell them that this idea is completely wrong, because if this war had an impact on the price of Bitcoin, the price of Bitcoin would have already fallen much lower, but the current price of Bitcoin is $106k, so it is not right to try to confuse them by talking about them in reverse.

The real gear was that the war would affect the crude oil price. And we all know that immediately, crude and gas prices increase, and inflation sets in. This might slow economic growth and discourage investment.  Iran threatened to close the Strait of Hormuz, which would have affected oil supply and maybe caused the price to hit $100 per barrel. 

In all these fears, Bitcoin performs excellently well. Its price didn't depreciate as many people forecasted.  I am just grateful for this ceasefire because a long war in the Middle East would have harmed the global economy, including the crypto industry.

It was always going to survive the war scare. Bitcoin has been through worse & always finds a way back to recover & reach new highs. A prolonged devastating war with serious loss of infrastructure & lives could have caused a serious bear market in everything but that was always unlikely. Hopefully Bitcoin soon leaves this consolidation period behind us & we start entering price discovery.

What you said is true, actually similar incidents have happened many times, we can see that previous war news also affected the market, and especially affected the value of Bitcoin, but what happened was that Bitcoin was able to recover quickly, and if I am not mistaken, the recovery that Bitcoin is currently doing is faster than the previous incident, so this doesn't seem to affect Bitcoin too much. I think this all happened because Bitcoin has become the center of attention of many people, because we know that Bitcoin has become an institutional and state-level asset, so when Bitcoin experiences a decline in value, I think most people are no longer so panicked, and may even increase the amount of Bitcoin they have.

The main cause of the decline this time is due to bad news involving Iran, Israel and now America trying to get into the death game. As a result, there was a panic in the market that led to selling by retailers and investors in order to minimize losses from the decline, but they forgot that Bitcoin has always survived over time, compared to now, Bitcoin has faced worse in the past when only a handful of people were new to it.

Here it is also important to understand the potential and benefits of Bitcoin in the future, in order to have a grip or trust in the assets held, on the other hand so as not to be too affected by current events.

This means many were waiting to catch that dip. When bitcoin went below $100k, I thought the Iran-Israel conflict will start a delayed bull season. I thought price will dump more since $100k is a strong psychological support. But before that day ended, I was surprised that the price bounced back hard to even reach $105k. Many people trust bitcoin now and see it as a good investment, it's less volatile compared to before that a negative news really shakes the crypto market and doesn't recover that quick.

You have made good point connecting current global events to Bitcoin behavior. While many from us worry about how conflicts will affect markets but Bitcoin quick bounce back to $105k after dip shows Bitcoin not just follow traditional market reactions. Some people even see it as safe investment when times are uncertain because they believe it is less controlled by governments or standard financial systems. But we know that crypto market can change much and even though Bitcoin did well this time its price is also shaped by things like economy and new rules, and how many people use it not just global conflicts. It is clear we trust Bitcoin as secure investment and its recent rebound does support that idea for many.

Those of us who have seen it from the beginning will believe that. But those who are new, I think it's hard to shake the fear of Bitcoin price crashing. Temporarily bad conditions or good conditions are the best moments. We are able to take advantage of every moment to make a profit. If there is no such thing then I think we will find it more difficult to make a profit.

Bitcoin won't collapse or disappear just because of the war between Iran and Israel but we can't deny that it has had short term effects on bitcoin. Bitcoin price fell as the war broke out and then dropped below $100k when news broke that Iran attacked a US military base in Qatar. Bitcoin only really recovered quickly to $106k when news broke that the two countries had reached a ceasefire.

When war happens, everything is affected and Bitcoin is no exception but there will be a difference. There will be assets that are severely affected and less affected assets.

People who believe and know how Bitcoin works will definitely do so, but those who don't understand will panic and sell their holdings for fear of a crisis, even though Bitcoin will not be affected in an extreme way.
Because the sales that continue to happen end up creating a wave of panic when there is a war like the current one, but then it recovers quickly like nothing happened.

During the Russia Vs Ukraine war in February 2022, Bitcoin even increased because Bitcoin became the right place to fund the war without being detected and at that time Bitcoin rose by around +16%, but then some corrections occurred but only real and then recovered.
https://cointelegraph.com/news/bitcoin-price-stabilizes-and-rallies-amid-regional-conflicts-data-shows
And the conflict that occurred between Iran Vs Israel is now a pretty deep drop for Bitcoin, from the price of $109k down to $98k-$99k but the result rebounded and the rally back to the price of $106k++
https://cointelegraph.com/news/missiles-fly-bitcoin-holds-revealing-btc-s-strength-in-global-chaos

When the conflict peaked, the price of Bitcoin did experience a sharp correction but then recovered quite quickly, in fact, this could be a sign that this rally will be a strong rally for Bitcoin to reach a new ATH as has happened after the war between Russia and Ukraine.

Yes, this has already been discussed in another thread. No, the war between Israel and Iran does not affect Bitcoin in any way. It is not an asset that reacts to such events. Oil is a completely different matter. There is a direct connection here. Why are they trying to "pull an owl onto a globe"?

If this had any bearing, the price would have fallen quite a bit, but this did not happen. Bitcoin seems not to have noticed all this and is trading as before.

I am very happy to see how strong bitcoin is. Now everyone knows that we have an investment that is not affected by the markets much even when there is a war and continues to grow stronger. It is not easy to say the same thing for altcoins, prices continue to fall rapidly but even if bitcoin falls, it can still rise again.
If it continues like this, everyone will continue to switch to bitcoin because of dominance, everyone sees that it is best to make safe investments during wartime :)

Of course, we can not refute the fact that the war affects the market movement but it wasn't as anticipated initially and again, it shows a sign of recovering even before the seize power was announced. Since the beginning of controversial war between Israel and Iran, we ought to have gone below $90k or even lower if it really affects the market. The market is always quick to react or being triggered by international issues in the same direction but this time was a bit different.

I'm surprised you used the word "survived" which seemed like Bitcoin was doomed as a result of the war. This is not the first time we are passing through this stage and it might even interest you to know that it is during the time of uncertainties that Bitcoin is supposed to do very well. Remember during the covid, how so many things went down but it was not long after that we saw Bitcoin flying to a new ATH in 2021. The decline in price that Bitcoin noticed was normal for a time like that and across several trader assets. Hope you noticed how fast the recovery was and not it is looking like Bitcoin is going to retest the ATH.

A little disagreement on my end, Bitcoin was able to recover because of the peace talk which have been finalised already, if truly the war escalated and US joined it would be disaster for Bitcoin and stock. In a country where most institutions investing heavily in Bitcoin are based? Are you joking?

While Bitcoin was dropping under 100k Black Rock was using millions to buy the dips up, they knew a peace talk will be initiated, if they had a solid information that US is really going to war they won't risk those millions on Bitcoin, trust me, Blackrock buying is how I knew too that the war isn't going to happen.

The US also stated that they never attacked or killed any Iran citizens that they only stop the warheads, it's not because they are in fear but because they also don't want the war to happen.

The thing about Bitcoin is that we can't be certain of which way it will go. Don't be surprised if the increase in oil prices and inflation causes the bitcoin price to rise. We've seen instances where the bitcoin price increases alongside inflation, as people seek safe havens for their savings to protect them from inflation.
Bitcoin is a bit more unpredictable than the stock and foreign exchange markets. It just depends on how the public behaves. Will they run to Bitcoin in times of trouble, or will they run away from it? Lately, people have been running to Bitcoin. 

Yeah, that bounce was solid. Shows Bitcoin can take the hits and still come back strong. It’s why so many trust it long-term, even in shaky times.

In the short term we saw a panic response in the market but the price situation recovered and I agree that regardless of the conflict that occurred Bitcoin is still the only alternative that you can maintain and control anywhere without having to carry goods in the heat of war.

You are very correct some set of people said surely this war between between Iran and Israel, plus US intervention will drop the price of Bitcoin and a lot of traders where just waiting patiently so it can drop and then they buy and wait for it to rise again and they sell and make there profit but that didn't happen, this is an evidence of what we always say that Bitcoin is trustworthy and reliable and nothing can happen to Bitcoin not even when there's war, this incidence has proven that all that was true.
I'm very sure when this war is over some set of people in Iran and Israel will see more reasons to save there money in Bitcoin, those of them that saved there money in Banks will in one way or the other be affected because the government may decide to bring a policy that will reduce there money in other to build all that was destroyed during the war, but those that have been saving there money in Bitcoin may come back after the war and meet there money being increased.

that bitcoin always bounces back is something that tells of it potential but even at that, there is a possibility that in the even of serious war, it might eat bitcoin and every other asset real hard such that the DIP might be felt by all investor. the advantage is that regardless of the event that sweeps most sectors into disarray, bitcoin has always found it way back and has always remained strong amidst them all. it ability to always recover even when it goes down makes it even  better and arguably the best investable asset. any event that is capable of causing bitcoin to go really down must have swept the whole economic sector underground.

The decline in price, despite being very short lived, was an effect of the war already. It did not continue since well there was the ceasefire and by now we know how much investors are looking for every opportunity to enter bitcoin again.
If you are still worrying about bitcoin now, I fear you lack confidence and trust. It has shown time and time again that it will be fine and it can recover. Do not fret.

The panic of some people made a slight correction but it did not last long because still in the end bitcoin survived and returned to their initial condition so there was nothing to fear in the end.

The previous correction condition will still be considered as a fairness because some investors seem to panic about what happened especially since geopolitics heated up a little earlier so it made the situation a little difficult to avoid.
But in the end bitcoin is still bitcoin where they will not be greatly affected and we can even see for now the movement is towards the positive again and it is important for them at this time not to be too provoked by temporary movements just because of unfounded panic lest they become their own loss because they cannot control themselves because of too much panic.

I think that the correction shall take longer if there is no agreement on a ceasefire. We cannot deny that when the news about the ceasefire broke, the market recovered quickly. But that's not the point, though. You're right that whatever comes to the world and to the market, Bitcoin will stand firmly and will always be resilient to whatever is happening right now. Most of us who have been holding for years knew about that. And the newbies that has just experienced this are likely learning that Bitcoin is like this. No matter what happens, it recovers.

My observation since the war broke out is that when the conflict broke out on June 13, the price of bitcoin dropped from $111k to $104k on the same day. Then, on June 22, the US announced that it had launched missiles at Iran's nuclear facilities and the price of Bitcoin continued to fall to $98k. Ultimately, Bitcoin only really rallied from $99k to $106k on the 24th when news broke that the two sides had agreed to a ceasefire.
Obviously, if the US officially gets involved and the war gets more serious, this would be disastrous for bitcoin and stocks. Bitcoin will have a hard time recovering if the war doesn't stop.




That is a very good finding and I believe you. I will use this signal next time.  ;)

yes indeed when there is war on earth like Iran and Israel indeed many people panic selling btc at that time until there is a decline to less than $ 100k. but yes it is true now btc proves that it is a good and valuable asset so that when the price drops so many people buy it and of course do not want to waste the discounted btc price when it drops.

yes it is true of course now we don't need to worry about our investment in btc for the long term because of course when there are countries in conflict and war but btc of course the price remains good because it can continue to rise. and of course if the war and conflict have subsided, btc will certainly be even better and will certainly have great potential to rise even higher.

today even btc really shows something good because it rose to its highest price of $ 108k and of course this makes many btc investors happy and of course those who panic sell btc at a low price at that time because there was a decline must regret it.

I keep wondering: why on earth would someone sell Bitcoin just because one nation dropped a bomb on another? How is that supposed to actually affect Bitcoin? I just can't understand the reason behind this sudden dump specifically related to this war... Are people really that weak-handed? Because honestly, it makes no sense at all to sell because of that.

Eventually everyone admits that bitcoin can be affected by war - but at the same time bitcoin can recover quickly like it is now. Some people became pessimistic when bitcoin failed to hold its support at $100K - but then the price gradually rose until we see bitcoin testing the $110K resistance again. The bitcoin market is affected by war in the short term - the same thing happened when the pandemic hit the world, but then the market came back excited and hit a new ATH.

Amidst the public's skepticism of the ongoing war - I remain equally optimistic about bitcoin. No plans to convert to fiat and secure it in other stores of value - but I have changed my stance a bit to not accumulating much and trying to diversify into other assets. Bitcoin is irreplaceable as a core asset in a portfolio - but it is wise advice to consider diversification.

It was only for a while, Bitcoin dropped down a bit but has recovered very quickly, just like the words from OP, the war going on won't have any long lasting effect on Bitcoin price, it came too quickly and left in the same approach. Bitcoin traded at $108K, so far the market has been greener and news are just part of speculations that make up Bitcoin volatile nature.

Huge whales and corporate level investing companies understand that the bull run isn't finished yet and thus they won't let Bitcoin down at any cost because most of them have accumulated so much of Bitcoin during the $76k dump and their might now want to have at least 2x from that investment. I know there's possibility that Bitcoin might fall below $90k once again but that has very low to no chance and thus I would say that Bitcoin will survive those wars and it won't lose its value.

I agree with SamReomo;

I believe more that whales and market makers are driving the market now. Some companies and other investment funds have invested so much in Bitcoin that they don't want it to dump now, or just enough to make a profit, but not significantly.

The percentage of "retail" BTC holders is very, very small; according to one study, they are only 4% worldwide (https://river.com/learn/files/river-bitcoin-adoption-report-2025.pdf?ref=blog.river.com). Their transactions are therefore very limited and have no impact on the market.

Even amidst the war between Iran, Israel and the United, after when the news broke that Iran has strike a retaliatory strike on US, Bitcoin was even going up in price regardless of that very news. When it seemed like it was turning into a full blown WWIII, there's no safe other heaven more than Bitcoin, because when WWIII eventually break out, even the local banks and fiat currency will be on the verge of collapse too.

you are right it’s obvious at this point that more people would be taking advantage of when the price declines

i know that i personally would buy more when it declines instead of spreading fud but now people also have learned
people have definitely heard of how beneficial can bitcoin be to them in case of war so maybe some of them seek refuge in bitcoin

it is true that the effects of the ongoing war do not have a long-term effect on btc. now of course for those who are experienced in investing in btc of course they will not panic with a situation like this because of the conflict between Israel and Iran, because in the past there have been so many conflicts and wars that have not caused btc to drop in price for a long time. yes I remember when the conflict between Russia and Ukraine but of course at that time even though the price of btc decreased, it was only for a moment.

yes now it has been proven that btc is a valuable asset and of course btc has been tested repeatedly by negative news but of course btc can still advance and increase in price and of course the decrease in the price of btc is often used as the right moment to buy for people who know about btc and of course right now those who bought btc under $ 100k at that time are certainly lucky now. now we just have to watch btc continue to rise and of course now those who sold btc because they panicked at that time will certainly regret seeing the price of btc rise again.

During the war, some people panicked and tried to sell Bitcoin, but those who were firm in their goals waited patiently. That is why we saw that when the price of Bitcoin went below 100k, it did not last long, but it rebounded again in a very short time. When a war starts, there is an increase anxiety in the preservation of assets, due to which the possibility of the value of assets like Bitcoin increasing to a greater extent. In war situations, people in at least the affected countries try to invest in projects like Bitcoin to protect their assets. As a result, it is natural that the price of Bitcoin will not decrease, but increase.

Here I remembered gambling, when I gamble, I enter the game with as much money as I can afford to lose. Maybe many people do not enter the game for fear of losing money, the same is true in Bitcoin investment. Those who do market research and think about losses stay away from Bitcoin investment. There is never a fear of fear in Bitcoin investment, it is better to invest in Bitcoin at any time as it is a long-term investment.
It will never be possible to achieve success without taking risks, although at present there is a massive war between Israel and Iran, the whole world is under economic threat. Still, the price of Bitcoin has not decreased, but is rising, after a long wait, it will definitely be possible to achieve success in the price of Bitcoin, only a test of patience.

I always think that when you want to leap higher, you first have to go lower. The point is if its value drops a little its usually a sign that it's preparing for a bigger jump ahead. Bitcoin has always been giving good feedback.
I hope that the price of Bitcoin will reach 1 million in a few years.

Yes some people panic and sell while others hold on or even buy more seeing it as safe asset. When Bitcoin price dropped significantly under $100k but it quickly bounced back showing that many believe in its value.

During conflicts people especially in affected areas mostly try to put their money into Bitcoin to protect it because traditional banks might become risky. This increased demand can actually make Bitcoin price go up not down. And also when it goes down it gives chance to those who believe and they try to accumulate more. And it happens when ceasefire news come out people and big companies accumulate more Bitcoin and now Bitcoin is again near to its ATH.

I like to move slowly, that's why I want to move slowly so that I don't fall down. I think the price of Bitcoin will suddenly reach $1 million, but I want to estimate it from a lower level. The next target is $200,000, and then $0.5 million again, so the price of Bitcoin will be able to move forward. Just be patient with our time, why are people refusing to invest in Bitcoin? Where big companies and different countries have linked Bitcoin to long-term holdings, so we must also be related to Bitcoin holdings.
In the future, the price of Bitcoin will reach a higher level, Michael Saylor has estimated that the price of Bitcoin will be $21 million in 21 years. At this rate, they are holding Bitcoin and today they are known as the country's top first world-class Bitcoin investment institution, which we know as the MicroStrategy company.

That will happen one way or another, and what we see with such events wouldn't and shouldn't concern us at all: no matter what, smart money always moves toward its destination, and we are sure to be following it, no matter what FUD and scared hands might present as truth.

Everyone thought that the war situation between Iran and Israel would become more serious and this war situation could take the form of a world war, so naturally there would be a big price drop in the Bitcoin market, but that did not happen. Maybe the price of Bitcoin has fallen slightly from the level it was at when the war started, but we thought that there would be a much bigger drop. However, the war situation is now normal, the two parties are currently in a ceasefire, so I hope that these two parties will not engage in any new conflict and the war will not have any bad effects on the Bitcoin market.

Because the fire itself was extinguished pretty fast, imo.

There were also no actions made to escalate the economic sector up and everything reverted back to where we started pretty fast, I would say that's the case and why we have such a summary of it.

It could of been worse..

To be honest, what amazes me the most is how, even when the war began, Bitcoin was already trading above $100K and it never dipped below that mark. Every time the conflict slowed or paused, the market quickly regained momentum.
Even during the peak of tension, when the U.S. finally made its move and Bitcoin briefly touched $99K, it bounced back almost instantly.

This just proves how resilient Bitcoin is largely untouched by global economic turmoil and reinforces its position as the only truly safe currency and asset in times of hyperinflation.

Such a wise analogy, and the Bitcoin price jump after a slight drop due to war is still not too much if you look at the current Bitcoin price. But if in the next month the Bitcoin price continues to make a difference at a higher level than now, of course it is very worthy to be called a big jump because it is a much more significant price improvement. But for now the jump is just a normal improvement after the bad turmoil due to the war in the past few days, so we all don't need to panic about it because Bitcoin has never disappointed its holders except those who let it go at a low price.

Weapons and amories can be traded with bitcoin, and every other thing you can think of, and the momentum increases by usage. War can't shake Bitcoin. The technology respect only two things; bear and bull season. Once the time for it comes, it plays out immediately and we could only speculate the cause of it and yet wouldn't be sure what led to the fall or rise of Bitcoin.

Seeing bitcoin holding the price really good at $100k and then bounced back dramatically is always great thing to see.

It's a proof that bitcoin can be resilient toward war and can be a a good way to store wealth other than being used as a hedge against inflation.

Honestly, bitcoin is the most accessible asset at time like that and there's zero chance of it being frozen by centralized entity where there's conflict.

Overall, it has survived the war scare indeed.

Very true, but not when it is stored in a centralized exchange or custodial service and there are a lot of people who use these services to hold their coins and they don't see anything wrong in doing things that way.
I wouldn't use the word 'survived' though, was it ever at risk of going into extinction because of the war in the middle east, the answer is obviously no, even other assets that did worse during the conflict, would also recover. However, what we can talk about is how well it held its own during the conflict, and just maybe in the future it would be a store of value comparable to gold.

Bitcoin will push forward no matter what: that's what's great about it.

It's not as affected by the events around the world as the other coins: it's big and accepted by retailers and institutions alike.

The fact that Bitcoin has gone through this period of escalating military conflicts without major fluctuations is encouraging and instills confidence in its stability and strengthening of its position in the world. I would like to believe that in the future the price growth will pleasantly surprise with new records, and will not remain as naturally stable and modest.

😂😂😂 this is actually funny, I don't know why people always panic at any slit negative news around the world, but people have to lose for others to gain in the market.
What most investors don't know is that Bitcoin is still in it early days, and as such is seriously on the rise, so regardless of what so ever, it will keep on rising, that's why getting a huge stash of it now that it's still very cheap is the best possible decision we can make now, because in 10 to 20 years time from now, their is a higher probability that Bitcoin might have gone to a million dollar or more, so wether their is a war or not, I think that Bitcoin will keeps on appreciating in value on it own pace.

That's a fact and has been proven. War and other effects are market trimmings. They make the market move up and down so that we are able to profit. There is almost always political turmoil of war, political and economic policies but Bitcoin is always strong. The growth of the industry and the trust in crypto has made a big impact.  War is only a temporary thorn in the side and does not scare the market and investors.

News are just that - news, not signals to act up as how everybody feels.

The loudest people are those that would act up on such facts presented, but we should stay down from such deeds and just continue to hodl 8) Or getting more BTC.

Panic sellers always faced consequences because they always feel they are doing correct things without having any view about conditions, but after end things as things came back to normal they are having more stress because they already had loses which were done by their mistakes.
Investment and saving always need cool mind and good decision power because you need to stay on balance which helps you for having better decisions a good thing happen bitcoin lost momentum but for few hours and then comeback onto right direction which encourage investors to keep things on right.
As ceasefire announces bitcoin was again on good price and now its staying solid which is good even now I am strongly feeling this can go on another ATH in coming days because atmosphere is favorable and demand is also going to increase which will push the price on right direction.

Many thought that the price of Bitcoin would fall a lot in the Iran-Israel war, but this war did not have much impact on the crypto market. However, after the United States attacked Iran's nuclear facilities, the price of Bitcoin fell quite a bit, but it quickly recovered. Since Bitcoin is unstable, it is normal for Bitcoin prices to go up and down. Now if you are investing in Bitcoin then there is no reason to worry, because the price of Bitcoin will continue to rise with time, now even though the price of Bitcoin falls a bit then it recovers quickly. But you may be worried about altcoins, because recovery is difficult if the price of altcoins falls. So if you are investing in Bitcoin then move forward with faith in Bitcoin.

I think it truly affected by not on a significant effect, because after the fall last week, the market has been rising back to this time as if it never fell, we only have to aligned to the fact that some of the events of the breaking news only have some little or short time impact on  the market and not a long one, they are the reason behind some of the market shock we do have and those that are not careful on this stages may only fall a victim of missing out on the opportunity of buying or selling after the sudden shock.

Bitcoin has survived far worse than this skirmish and the OG BTC enthusiasts can explain how it withstood the test of time and will continue to in a precise manner. Personally, I can give one example in this context.

I remember way back in 2019 when the entire crypto market collapsed and BTC dove below $7k. I always knew that it would rebound well and look where it is now. It's all about belief in its core foundation at the end of the day.

That’s just how resilient bitcoin is, that even if you see its price going into dips, and you have sensed there’s no chances to recover again, still it will recover in time, even if the recovery phase is not that fast. This only proves that bitcoin, regardless of any traumatic global event, will stay as reliable and profitable it is, no matter how volatile it is.

Bitcoin has always survived those past wars, but what has not survived are those weak hands who easily get panic and sell their bitcoin at a loss.

I used to encourage one of my close friends that an investment in bitcoin for the long term as asset acquisition is very much profitable that even buying landed properties currently due to reasons of anonymity of wealth ownership mostly when one finds himself always in the company of greedy people, be it family members or close friends and associates. Also, because of the almost common breakout of crisis that could result into waring factions being brutal to each other all over the world and even within our locality, it has become imperative for any smart person with money to invest for the future, to acquire bitcoin for ease of access when one has got to quickly relocate to another place to save themselves from sudden breakout of crisis and other emergencies that may require quick wits and financial response to counteract.

The sudden price surge or drop in price is already part of the game or should i say the system of how the cryptocurrency market functions and any smart investor should learn to use this to their favor because whether we like to accept it or not, cryptocurrency is the new currency of the future that rhymes with emerging technologies and anyone not on its track will find it much more difficult later on when they intend to adopt new technologies or move to a new environment where it is widely accepted, use and a part of mandatory financial knowledge.

Bitcoin was designed to withstand.  ;D

Although I do see a slight correction coming. Anything that goes up must come down. We are long past the point where a few whales could influence a panic sell-off that would lead people into a suicidal mindset. The more Bitcoin adoption, the more Bitcoin stability and the less volatility.

In the future we might be lucky to see a "dump" of a few percent within a week.

Do you mean that no threat could bring back bitcoin at 60k mark? It appears so, but that's not certain, despite the strong involvement of government offices in Bitcoin, would they be able to withhold Bitcoin in a bear season to stay around 85k upwards? The next halving is in less than 3 three years, and the long red candle is yet to come for buyers to purchase more bitcoin. Unless it pumps higher that 100k is the bench mark for the bearish moves, but with $10k added to the 100k and the $105k price it's not strong enough to hold on to a serious shake on the market. Like a crypto exchange rugpull.

If we look at the bitcoin system and utility, bitcoin can go through any challenge and bitcoin remains unbeatable. Even if there is a war like yesterday, the price of bitcoin goes down, it is normal because many investors sell their assets because they panic because of fomo or fud and so on, but after that bitcoin will recover and go up again.

Because if we look at the history of bitcoin from the past to the present, when the global economy was uncertain it did not have an impact on bitcoin in the long term, the proof is that there are so many uncertain global economic turmoil and even crises such as the pandemic, the Ukrainian war and many more, but the impact on bitcoin was only temporary after bitcoin slowly recovered.

Yes, you are right. Bitcoin is a decentralized network, so no government or war can stop it. No matter what the world economy is like. Bitcoin sets its own price. Also, we know that Bitcoin is not just a price, it is a symbol of financial freedom. Every time Bitcoin has fallen, its recovery has been stronger.

So, there is nothing to worry about investing in Bitcoin. You can invest without any worries. Because patience is the real strategy when it comes to investing in Bitcoin.

No realistic threat. But going back to 60K is not unrealistic. It could be well within the boundaries of a correction and there is nothing wrong with that. Everything that goes up must come down at some point. But I draw the line at 50K to be honest. If we go down further than that then something is really wrong (I still would not sell though). It might just mean another crypto winter (with a hodler summer up ahead).

What I meant is that there is no more such volatility that we saw in the young days of Bitcoin, when we would go down 40% in a matter of hours. Such things will not happen anymore (unless something unrealistically bad happens).

Just like everybody is saying even some observations articles, it happens when Trump announces the ceasizefire. As for this moment, Bitcoin price really is affected on such global happenings and some ralated news, it's not about Bitcoin only but crypto as a whole even Stock market is the same too.

The so-called acute phase of the war between Israel and Iran lasted only 12 days, and Bitcoin did not lose much value during that time. Imagine if, after the US strikes on uranium enrichment facilities, the situation had escalated and other countries had joined the conflict. This could have had a significant impact on all risky assets due to the increased likelihood of a third world war.

In my opinion, after the US intervention in this conflict, it became more like a staged event than a real military confrontation. Iran and Israel announced to their citizens that they had won the war and that it was over. This seems quite amusing, except for the losses on both sides. Therefore, I believe that we should not expect Bitcoin to behave in the same way during real military operations, especially protracted ones.

I guess all of the breaking news that are bound to affect bitcoin will only have temporary effects on bitcoin. Because eventually, bitcoin still moves on its own leading the market again, since that’s how bitcoin is made for.

However, since not all bitcoin investors are firm enough to continue hodling, some end up becoming weak hands and totally lose control of their emotions and decide to sell even at a loss.

Whether the impact of these breaking news is large or small, temporary or long-term for bitcoin will depend on the scale of the news and its impact on our economy.


Imagine if a war between Iran and Israel escalated, spread, and drew in the great powers. Causing the economy to fall into crisis, recession...I don't think bitcoin can recover on its own in a short time. Or if the breaking news is about the war between Russia and the United States or China, Bitcoin's situation is sure to get worse.

Similar to how Trump's trade war sent bitcoin price plunging below $77k, what would have happened to it if he hadn't postponed the tariff war?

I won't say that because the market can change anytime without informing us, there could be some sanctions that the market will react in a bad way to that it pushes the price of Bitcoin below our expectations that the price goes below $60,000. Bitcoin is holding strong among the wars happening but it isn't being bullish because the price has being falling for sometime. This isn't bothering me because I know that the market will recover back when everywhere goes back to normal but for now the market isn't giving us any good signs of recovering soon and this is chasing away investors. Regardless of how the market falls we shouldn't give up all hope on Bitcoin.

Yeah, I noticed the same. The initial dip made sense with the strike news, but Bitcoin bouncing back so quickly shows people aren’t falling for the fear this time. Seems like investors are getting smarter about the noise.

What else do you expect? I have never seen nor heard a global event that totally made bitcoin price stuck and never have the chances to pump again. Yes, bitcoin price can easily be affected by any breaking, hot news that is a world concern, but after a couple of weeks or months, bitcoin will surely return to its original momentum and make us amazed how fast and capable it is to recover, no matter how big the world’s issue may be.

Bitcoin remains fearless all the time. So there’s nothing to worry that bitcoin will be left hanging in the air, because take note, bitcoin is bitcoin and it’s powerful, and it’s certainly not like with altcoins.

The Iran and Israel war is not the first war since the existence of bitcoin; there have been several wars before now. Russia and Ukraine have been fighting long before now, and it did nothing to bitcoin.

Apart from wars, there have been terrible occurrences like COVID-19, and it did nothing to bitcoin. Bitcoin is very decentralized, and it is here to stay. People who don’t understand the value of bitcoin would always think otherwise when there is war or some occurrence. Bitcoin has gone through many tough times in the world, but it is still doing well and gaining more adoption.

Bitcoin price is affected by Russia vs Ukraine war - as is Israel vs Iran, only the impact is not long lasting and is only a short term impact.

What kind of impact are you talking about exactly - if it's about price, I think some of the previous big events had an impact on bitcoin including Covid 19. It's true that bitcoin has risen quickly - but you can't ignore the high volatility that has occurred in the short term.

I wasn't worried at all. It's the first time in the history that we've seen Bitcoin get to $100k and with the war happening, I think if just some few dips would happen then most of the people that awaits for a better price will buy. We've got one huge correction already that has happened and if that will be repeated, most are going to buy once again and it won't be taking that long for the price to recover. We've seen it coming when the war has happened between Iran and Israel, they are in a ceasefire and Bitcoin recovered well.

Honestly Bitcoin has time and time again proved to be tough even in world tensions. It was less of a meltdown when it reduced below 100k. Time of uncertainty creates panic in people but those that have stayed long enough in the space know that bitcoin always rebound better. The demand remains strong as it had bounced to 105k quickly. A war or a political event is likely to be volatile in the short term yet the origins of Bitcoin will not be altered. At least, an increasing number of users begin regarding it as a safer store of value when the economy is volatile.

it is true of course what makes btc go down are people who have weak hands who always panic when there is news about war conflicts between countries and so on but for those who always know the potential of btc in the future of course they always hold their btc tightly and of course if it is sold of course if btc is really very high the price and of course if you look at the current btc price it is certainly still cheap for those who know very well about what the future of bitcoin is like. but usually not a few people panic and lose selling btc because usually it is not idle money that is put into btc and I have also experienced panic before when there is bad news.  ;D

if I think about it I see that currently people are starting to realize that btc is a good asset that is why currently the btc price is still good and indeed as op said of course now we don't need to hesitate to invest in btc.

Truth.
A lot of people have fully understood how Bitcoin works and have even passed this knowledge to newbies who are smart and eager to learn. Unlike in times past, many people would have panicked and caused the price of Bitcoin to dip greatly, but it wasn’t so with the Iran and Israel war; just a small, temporary dip which rebounded immediately after the war ceased. Although we don’t pray for war again, a similar situation like this would have very little or no impact on the price of Bitcoin. Bitcoin has indeed shown full resilience and is gaining dominance despite the economic and sociopolitical situations on the ground at any point in time.

If you have been here for years, and have witnessed how bitcoin price gradually recover after going into its dips, you will never be worried at all. You know how flexible and resilient bitcoin is, so there’s actually no need to worry then.

However, seeing bitcoin still survived from the latest war isn’t surprising for me. Even if US will be greatly involved, still bitcoin will eventually recover after a series of correction. That’s the potentials of bitcoin that other coins are lacking. That’s why bitcoin keep dominating the market, because it’s only bitcoin that is capable to do that, the rest cannot be trusted at all.

It would be incorrect to say that wars or terrible events like covid19 do not affect bitcoin. Bitcoin is even severely affected but it is all short and medium term impact.


If I remember correctly, when the Russia-Ukraine war broke out, bitcoin was dumped and at one point dropped below $15k in late 2022 before recovering and growing again in 2023. Likewise Bitcoin also dumped badly when covid paralyzed the world economy, and it only grew when governments decided to pump money to save the economy.


It can be said that bitcoin is always affected whenever the economy is unstable but over time, it will recover and increase in price again.
