If the war breaks out in Europe, what happens to Bitcoin?

[Crypto Library]

I always wondered if the threat from US such as taking Greenland member of NATO by another NATO country will break Europe in pieces and it will definetely shake the markets, what are the bets? I know a lot people say best investment will be gold, but you wont be able to escape country with golden bars possibly but with crypto you can just with hardware wallet or software wallet. I am considering to trade these markets either long gold short term but long term long Bitcoin what is your take?

I don't think such a big disaster is going to happen now because Europe has taken a strong position against the USA on Greenland. At this stage, we have seen that Europe has also canceled financial deals with America, initially bringing Donald Trump to the weakest position from his previous position on Greenland. And now I don't think Donald Trump will go and forcefully take over Greenland.
And if it can be done, perhaps Donald Trump himself has guessed the outcome. I personally think that if Donald Trump goes too far with Greenland, there is a possibility that World War III will start, just as we saw Hitler do in World War II. However, there is nothing to be too concerned about with Bitcoin. It is natural that after the bull season, there will be a bear season. However, if there is a major global economic recession, since the crypto market is currently part of it, the effect it will have is also natural.

Market prices will decline. This applies to all markets.
Chaos will ensue and people will try to save their assets. Physical assets other than gold may not be salvageable due to the destructive explosion. Even the gold owned by the people there will be difficult to save. Those who store their assets in Bitcoin may be saved because they only need to retrieve their seed phrase and related information to access their Bitcoin wallet. Another possibility is that if the internet is completely shut down, they will not panic because once they are able to save themselves, they will be able to access their Bitcoin when they are outside of Europe.
This may seem like a very basic assumption, but that is what I think.

From some of the discussions I have read bordering around Bitcoin and wars, some users have noted that whenever the USA or these countries currently dealing with some kind of conflict, price of Bitcoin sometimes goes up almost like the same thing that happened to the price per barrel of Oil which was almost like manipulation of these markets.. so in a way, the war could be done to push an agenda beyond land disputes.

I do not believe that war is going to break out in Europe among NATO members, the level of hate between these nations have not gotten to a point that war will break out. What we are seeing as tension will be settle diplomatically. There will be show of strength for sure but they will know when to settle because NATO cannot afford to be divided at this point and if Europe lose the support of the US, no one can predict what Russia will do because US is still a deterrent to Russia.

As long as Trump remains in the White House, the chances of war breaking out exist not only in Europe but throughout the world, and a third world war is not out of the question.

In any case, in such difficult circumstances, people used to turn to gold and other precious assets. Today, Bitcoin has become one of the best of these precious assets.

Personally, I prefer to diversify my choices between gold and Bitcoin because, in the event of a third world war and a complete internet and power outage, it might be difficult to access my Bitcoin wallet.

The way Trump is handling the Security of the World is with Diplomacy, Trump have set up a World Peace Board, I don’t think if he is interested in causing a war he wouldn’t be interested in setting up a Peace Board, Trump is mostly interested in bringing peace to the world he has ended 8 wars and he is very enthusiastic about ending the Russia and Ukraine war, I understand he is very concerned about taking Greenland but not in a ugly way of fighting over it, he wants it to be given to him, because if America doesn’t take it, Russia and China would be ready to take it, and Trump needs to protect the Arctics, The White House isn’t ready to create any war. However I understand that if a war should breakout most people will be mostly interested in taking their bitcoin for gold, considering that they might not have access to their bitcoin online and they can see there gold and silver physically, because of internet and power outages like you have mentioned that would be a challenge to hold bitcoin, if a war happens.

You truly believe that Trump is a dove of peace seeking to bring peace to the world?
Do you consider arresting Maduro, bombing Iran, and raising tariffs on China by more than 100% to be diplomacy?! Is this Trump's diplomacy, the one that he claims is "primarily concerned with achieving world peace"?

Does Trump really need to protect the Arctic? Or does he need the rich resources of Greenland, even though Greenlanders are resentful of Trump's attempts, with many feeling disrespected by his efforts to buy or control their land?

There is a war in Europe. Russia and Ukraine is a war in Europe no matter how many of the lands Russia has is considered in Asia. Ukraine is a European nation and we have seen a lot of damaging stuff economically in Europe because of it. Between tariffs, bans, gas deals broken, Russian accounts suspended and many more, we have seen this be an issue for Europe and that is the war we are going to see.

What other type of war do you expect, like nukes on France or something, of course that's not going to happen. Tens of thousands of people die every month from both sides and that is considered a war, there are lands where nobody lives and only military is attacking each other and this is financially a burden for all of Europe.

If such a war breaks out between Europe and America, then of course there is a possibility of Europe being torn apart. And it will have an impact on the market, it is natural, although people think that gold will be the best investment option if there is a war. I agree with you because gold will not be a good investment at all. If a war starts in a country, then if you want to escape from that country, it will not be possible to escape with gold. In that case, if that investment is made in Bitcoin, it is very easy to transfer from one country to another through a device. So if there is a war in a country, then I think that investing in Bitcoin is the most important thing to keep yourself financially stable. When there is a war, most people will convert their money into Bitcoin and then the value of Bitcoin will increase further because as the demand for Bitcoin increases, its value will also change a lot.

"War" as in military shooting at each other with guns, tanks, drones, missiles etc etc will not happen between USA and EU, that is way too primitive for such large nations. What we may see however is USA take it by force, and that would be military, but there won't be any military response by EU, they just won't do it.

What will happen however is that all of USA markets will be banned to sell stuff to Europe, every single one, no cars, no electronics, no drugs, nothing, instead they will buy from other nations. That will destroy American companies, and that is why economical warfare is more likely result. There are not that many companies in the USA where it is not possible to find alternative in some other nation.
