New COVID strain may affect crypto valuation

[breathlessz]

Long after the Covid pandemic is over (btw it's already over in numerous countries around the world but not all of them) most people will still remain pessimistic about the next potentially devastating new strain. It's how it works, the majority is always most fearful at the bottom 

The new variant omicron is becoming a threatful or atleast that is what media claims and another worldwide lockdown is possible if this becomes real and already government like Germany,US, etc started to restrict the unvaccinated people from public events which has no logic but still they feel it will slow down the spread which is stupid but affecting the financial sector again.

Europe is currently the largest deployment for the new variant. even many international events cannot run smoothly due to virus reasons. indirectly this proves of course the economy will be disrupted even though it may not be significant. but we must be able to keep up with the times so that we can survive to face all of this

most countries have not been completely free from this pandemic, even many countries that have declared themselves free from the pandemic have recently been hit by a pandemic again. in my country the spread of the covid-19 virus has begun to be controlled but the government in my country continues to enforce strict rules to anticipate waves of stages 3 and 4.

Agree but the world is getting normalize until this new variant of virus came. People now are very cautius and do practice Social Ending on which the virus still exist but we are not scared of it anymore but they are doing social distancing wearing face mask and face shield. The problem really right now is the new variant that those country that their cases drop down for months but when the new variant came it rises. Hoping that the vaccine could work on that new virus

The fact that when covid causes many types of investments to die, cryptocurrencies can shine, the very open concept of decentralization makes many investors not hesitate to shift their money to cryptocurrencies and the presence of a new variant of covid in my opinion will make crypto performance even better.

I considered previously that the Covid pandemic was ending but the total complacency towards it lately gives me serious doubts 

Wont really be surprised if there would be some new variant that would pop out on upcoming weeks or months or years which is something that would really make things going back to zero or that casual strict health
protocols but hopefully it wont really be that be happening in upcoming days or months to come which we do all hope for everything to go back into normal or on the way we do live before without having
some facemask and face shield. Speaking of Covid which does made out some effect on overall crypto market then i dont see for it to be that really affecting because the price didnt drop that
hard even with the current crisis.It did just move sideways or even made out some good increase.

I am observing today something similar to what happened in 2020 but at a micro-scale. The announcement of a new COVID variant that may be resistant to current vaccines has sent the Dow and the S&P down the drain, particularly airlines and other travel hospitality linked business. Zoom stocks are up, mining and raw materials down,... It looks like a repetition also in bitcoin price with a plunge that may be ongoing.

For those of you that are newer on hodling, just calm down, this is nothing new, bitcoin will be there tomorrow and, likely, rebounding after the initial collapse caused by the stop-loss orders triggering of the first days.

Worth mentioning that this "new strain" turned out to be so mild that most people didn't even know they caught it, while also providing them with an immune response that is more effective than the vaccines...  So much fear was being dumped on the public that people were really feeling like this was going to be the end of civilization.  Absolutely insane.  I get that not all things are going to be naturally irradicated, but this pandemic was so clearly a scam to get trillions of dollars playing on people's fear of the flu that I can't believe there are still people out there wearing masks and pretending like they're helping society in some way.  In reality, now that Omicron has proven to be a mild flu and provide better immunization than the vaccines, one could make the argument that it's those who are getting vaccinated and wearing masks that are causing this pain to be drawn out for our civilization.

The further a virus strain mutants the less deadly it becomes apparently which is why omincrom is still serious for those long retired and elderly but it should affect the working economy less.   Obviously be careful with vulnerable people still but the overall threat is declining far more to the general population which is bullish overall.   We have always got the flu every year but most years its not killed off healthy middle aged people, that was the main difference this time around.
