I think the war between Russia and Ukraine did affect the rise and fall of bitcoin, because bitcoin is also related to large stocks in both countries and has to do with inflation and currencies. Besides that Russia and Ukraine are big countries that have influence with the world economy, it's all clearly related to the movement of bitcoin.
Ukraine itself is a energy and other stuff nation as well, I mean it is not just Russia. Why do you think we had that scare recently about the nuclear plant getting bombed, that nuclear plant doesn't just give energy to Ukraine, it helps many nations surrounding Ukraine as well. There are a ton of other stuff as well. Whereas Russia also have a lot of energy related power over the world too.
The rise in price for bitcoin was mainly due to sanctions to Russia and Russians all coming together the go around it, they did it all at once at the first days and that impacted the price a lot. They are still doing it, but not all at once and all together, they do it regularly and smaller. Which is why there was a big increase, and then resulted with a drop.
