This isn't even on the news sites yet, I don't think the recent rise of price has anything to do with it, so far.
But if proven true, I think will be more fuel to pre black friday pump that is happening

They would be better of promoting something like pig meat. That would really unsettle them. Anonymous is doing a good job at infiltrating the ISIS social media. Hope they can keep it up! |

How will Russia's military actions affect Bitcoin's price? I searched for the convoy strike news and found a few obscure websites verifying it, but no mainstream ones yet. Although I can understand how Black Friday affects Bitcoin's price I cannot understand how the Russian strike is going to affect Bitcoin's price. |

What on Earth are the folks who try to link astoundingly unrelated world events to Bitcoin on?
Even attempts to link it to things that really should be linked to it look rather sad.

FROM ZEROHEDGE: Following yesterday's dramatic geopolitical shock, U.S. equity index futures rise as Russia has not escalated the confrontation with Turkey as some had feared, while Asian shares fall, reversing earlier gains. European stocks are rallying and the euro is falling on the back of a Reuters report that the ECB is mulling new measures to prop up lending, although it’s not clear at this point what the real impact from these measures would be. As a result, global stocks are little changed for a second day as investors assess the geopolitical fallout from the downing of a Russian warplane by Turkey. U.S. President Barack Obama and French President Francois Hollande called for Russia and Turkey to avoid escalating the confrontation. Hollande meets German Chancellor Angela Merkel in Paris today before heading to Moscow tomorrow to meet President Vladimir Putin. FOR ME BITCOIN IS AN ALTERNATIVE TO STOCKMARKETS , I RECEIVE DIVS IN BTC NOT FIAT, SO WHAT'S YOUR POINT |

I do not know why they are linked. Bitcoin is banned in Russia, will the attack lift the ban? |

The OP has previous.Remember when there was yet another incident in an ongoing conflict and BTC hit $1000 in a week? No? Me neither. |

Any unrest might stimulate bitcoin as it is not influenced by any government politics or economic problems. If this stuff keeps escalating it might become interesting. |

What does this have to do with speculation if I may ask? I believe this belongs in the Politics and Society forum.
I do understand that world problems reflect on today's economics.

Isn't this how America is handling the situations all the time.Is the economy down let's make some war and all will be fine?! This is all is a big mess.The average person has to suffer, doesn't matter which country, and the big guys are filling up their pockets with money made by blood.Disgusting! |

Well if war comes that the economy will be shit. And Bitcoin will increase I've always found that attitude something of a stretch. 'Hey, I can't pay my mortgage this month. My kids are starving and I'm wearing rags. Should I sell my car to survive so I can't work or transport us ever again or those bitcoins that are sitting doing nothing awaiting a possible future that may never come? Boy, that's a quandary. |

Any unrest might stimulate bitcoin as it is not influenced by any government politics or economic problems. If this stuff keeps escalating it might become interesting. Thank you - might, yes. ...as it is not influenced by any government politics or economic problems. - like Greece, Cyprus, the imposition or relaxation of capital controls in China? Nope, I'm calling "nonsense" on this part. If this stuff keeps escalating it might become interesting. - it's interesting now, it's just not interesting in a "Bitcoin speculation" sense, but in a " Politics and society" sense. |

Yes war stimulates economy, And in ww2 gold was chased by germans and hidden by allies,stored by the swiss etc... ( is china the new switzerland if btc is the new gold?) but war can also create huge debt in fiat economy still thinking that price is also linked to politics http://www.awesomescreenshot.com/image/790418/666f51e60c9873bada554393fe6573d7 |
