Now that the USA has captured Maduro in Venezuela will it make crypto crash.

[YOSHIE]

Will the USA's raid on Venezuela and the capture of Maduro Rock crypto prices?

Because we are talking about speculation, war, presidents, crypto and arrests.
Of course we are not just talking here, maybe we need some documents regarding the arrest of Nicolás Maduro by the US, Currently news and rumors on the front page in almost every country are talking about Maduro's arrest and crypto/Bitcoin assets.

Many experts speculate that Maduro holds large amounts of Bitcoin, but I looked for this speculation and there was not a single speculation that claimed this statement, it was just an issue, I think the real situation is: Rumors are swirling about Venezuela holding $60 billion in Bitcoin—but crypto experts are skeptical

Following the United States’ capture of Nicolás Maduro over the weekend, a report came out claiming that Venezuela had $60 billion stored in Bitcoin—leading to speculation that the U.S. could lay claim to cryptocurrency as well as oil. Despite numerous reports of the huge Venezuelan Bitcoin stash, however, a crypto forensic firm is skeptical of the claims.

I can conclude that the US strategy regarding Maduro's turmoil and arrest has no effect on the crypto and Bitcoin markets, my speculation is that the US's main target is to control oil wells.

Logic: let's think about the value of $60 billion. I think it's easy for the US to get it in the crypto market, especially since Donald Trump is pro Bitcoin and one of the creators of Trump's crypto assets, that's my speculation, so the goal is not to shake up the crypto market, instead the oil field.

The U.S. just went in and captured Maduro, quick and smooth. So it was not an extended conflict, if it prolly was, then it may have had an impact on the price of bitcoin and crypto, particularly in the long run. Bitcoin is doing fine, with $90k being a very strong support for sometime now. I actually believe right now the price is more likely to rise to a $100k, than it is for it to crash well below the current support, but we'd see how things pan out.

Regardless, I still don’t see this as a very strong reason for bitcoin price to be affected. The market may look to be consolidating and doesn’t have a definite direction now but I’m certain this news will have effect of it even though it is for the short time and not for long term effect or purpose. The support of $100K wasn’t broken after this news, so this was a strong indication that the news about the capture  didn’t have any effect much on the market. As for now, I can’t still tell for sure which is imminent to happen in the market, is it the bear run or the bull run? Time will tell about that soon.

Which is exactly what i said. My reason is that even though the capture of Maduro has economic implications, it wasn't one of those extended conflicts that would shift investor sentiment to bearish, causing them to move their money to other less volatile assets. That was not the case here, it didn't create too much tension, just countries either supporting or condemning the action by the U.S.

The support of $100K wasn’t broken after this news,

The support isn't $100k, do you mean $90k?

As for now, I can’t still tell for sure which is imminent to happen in the market, is it the bear run or the bull run? Time will tell about that soon. 

Nobody can tell for sure, it is harder to predict the price movement of bitcoin right now. It is prolly not going to move in the same manner as it has done in the past and a lot of people may not see that as a good thing, in terms of predicting the price movement in the long run.

I voted Trump is a force of chaos SO all prices will be rocked.

Copper Silver Gold all of Crypto Etc

I voted for NO because this will not have any effect on price of Bitcoin. Venezuela is an oil rich country so any chaos there will affect oil prices mostly and not everything. Although the market for other commodities might shake a little but there will be no net impact on them.

Now the interesting thing is will he follow up and grab another leader from another country in less then a month or 2.

If Trump is looking for leaders to capture, they are more than welcomed to my  country because we have been held down by the most brutal forces of wickedness that grabbed power by force and have been tormenting us ever since. People die in my country more than anywhere in the world, insecurity is at the peak and people are afraid to move from one state to another. Our oil money is being looted by these set of criminals that call themselves politicians while the people suffer. They have introduced new tax laws that will further plunged the people into poverty while they still loot the proceeds of those taxes. Trump should come and capture those wicked men, we will thank him for that.

What would they benefit in return if they come to your country to capture the bad leaders over there? They might claim to be fighting the drug cartels and the government of Venezuela cause he's related to the drug cartels over there but behind the scene the US government is there for their interest  which is the large reserve of Venezuelan oil.
 So if your country also have something to offer, something that would interest the US government then you'll see them troop in and secretly milk the resources in the guise of fighting corruption, same way the French government is milking some of their colonies in Africa.

This actually one of the best way to stop circulation of corruption in a state ,with this Trump's has done many corrupt leaders will be scared now because they don't know who next ,not that he will stop drugs drastically but to reduce it to normal,but at the end the president will still be released all the money he has lost ,he will still fined a mixed to recover all in a legal or inlegal way ,I love what Trump's did just to reduce crime in a country.

Maybe there are still some of us who thinks that this is going to impact the price. And yes, I do agree that it looks like the market is consolidating around $90k. Although we've seen a good increase to $95k-$96k, but that price didn't hold. And it's a false hope to think that we are going to $100k.

They are talking about super cycle and yet the market failed to move to the direction of 6 digit? So what did it says? We might be just entering the bear market, it might be slow but sooner or later the price might continue to decline and that the mental fatigue of the bulls will show already causing the price to really go down at the start of this quarter.

What you bring up is valid. The actions of someone such as President Trump certainly send a message of fear and uncertainty to corrupt leaders which could lead them to curtail some of their criminal behaviour. The type of action may not eliminate many issues like Drugs or corruption altogether but certainly can limit the amount of crime that takes place, as well as the level of the consequences associated with these criminal acts. The mere fact that leaders are held accountable, whether with monetary fines or with the ability of the public to recoup their losses from the corrupt leader demonstrates that accountability for actions has a positive impact on society. Effective measures such as these create an atmosphere that will promote ethical behaviour as well as reduce criminal activities in Society.

Yep good old Donald Trump a promoter of ethics and good behaviour.

The market looks still stable and not bad effect yet since US have seized Maduro cryptocurrency assets, right now US become the most top country in the world holding many bitcoin and all it from seized assets. Have any moment make bitcoin get dump but always faster for recovering how my memorize when Germany's government sold all bitcoin seized but without few weeks bitcoin recovery back. Now have been one week more since US has captured Maduro and bitcoin looks good raise higher price until yesterday success breaking out to $97k more.
Looks this moment not any huge effect to make bitcoin dump after US captured the Venezuela president, however I worry about all bitcoin's Maduro assets seized by United State if moving from one address to another address make bitcoin will get correction.

Trump is a person whose presence is enough to make the situation unstable and uncertain. However, I think the injustice done to Maduro in Venezuela will not bring any change in the crypto ecosystem.

Now the interesting thing is will he follow up and grab another leader from another country in less then a month or 2.

Trump has threatened Nigeria militarily, they are only talking about human rights or violence but are not fully talking about the economic and resource reasons behind it such as oil, gas, geopolitics. Nigeria is rich in oil and natural gas. Apart from this oil and natural gas, there are also huge reserves of precious metals like gold. There are also huge reserves of the rarest rare earth metals and mineral resources in the world. And for these resources, ruling countries create various narratives and conduct military aggression and seize all the resources and legitimize them through the media. However, there is no possibility of this happening in Bitcoin because we all know that it cannot be caught/touched and transactions can be made from any part of the world at any time, because Bitcoin is borderless.

I understand what you are saying. There is always an element of uncertainty regarding the impact of Trump's presence. However, with respect to crypto, any event such as the Maduro situation is very unlikely to create any lasting effect on crypto-currency or Blockchain technology.

Crypto-currencies and Blockchain have always been fuelled through advancing technology, greater consumer adoption, and changing market conditions rather than through political drama.
